JD Vance lies. He was lying then. He lies now. It doesn't matter what he said years ago. It doesn't matter what he says now. It's. All. L I E S.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

He’s a lying liar who lies.
Oh and also an ASSHOLE
I dunno, he could have sacrificed his decency and integrity for power over the intervening eight years.
That would assume he meant what he said at one point. I can't being myself to believe that.
What was his motivation to write that old tweet if he didn't believe it? Get in the pants of a liberal woman or something?
Probably trying to cozy up to one of the other shitbird candidates the GOP was offering up beforing falling in line behind Dementia Don.
These two Behind the Bastards episodes are about Curtis Yarvin, but there's a significant connection with JD Vance....just like it says on the tin.

I think after seeing how Pence was wedded to the concept of normalcy Trump decided he wanted a full on lickspittle who would throw away any ideals in pursuit of power. Turning on his old ideals made Vance more attractive than anyone who was a fascist from the start.
They say there's no crusader as committed as a convert.
Serious question, how were these not found earlier? Couldn't they just completely scrape his xitter account with keywords pretty quickly?
I think this just illustrates (1) how much Elon has locked down the API access, and (2) how much less Twitter matters in culture now.
Nah, nothing stopped anyone from manually checking his posts. This is our lazy, useless media.
No it just shows how much journalists single-sourced everything they wrote from Twitter for nearly 2 decades and still haven’t figured out how to do their jobs without it.
They were found earlier, I saw this tweet resurface when he was first chosen as Trumps VP. This article is just talking about old news.
Trump flip flops on shit like this in the span of hours but people still think he "tells it like it is". It's why it just gets worse and worse, no accountability from their voters, just blind obedience.
When someone is so easily paid-off to say whatever you want them to say, is it a big surprise that no one who is worth anything believes a word out of that clammy pissfart’s mouth?
Anyone have a Wayback Machine link to it?
Uh-oh...
The IA is being DDOS'd right now and is down, just in case you weren't aware
