Serious question: when does he start having a decoy child lookalike so he can always have a child with him 24/7 so he can continually say he's being harassed with his daughter.
Glad someone's confronting republicans on Ukraine. No one we elected will.
he is such a try hard. What a douchy loser.
Vance, in tears, asked his daughter if they could go home to mommy where there weren't any scary people asking why he is Putin's bitch
We need more Luigis.

Oh wait this is Lemmy not Reddit. My bad
Man, there's going to be so many feds on this platform soon. Mark my words.
If there aren't feds watching fediverse/lemmy already, somebody is not doing their job.
Sucks to suck
The kid should know that daddy is making other little boys and girls die because he can't steal from their country.
Using your child as a shield for bad policy decisions? That’s a new low, JD.
🐱
But not using them as a literal shield yet, so he needs to work harder.
He still doesn't want to stoop to musk's level there
So Vance just so happened to be "walking his daughter" near a group of Ukrainian protestors? The secret service didn't have the capability to look down the street he wanted to walk down and say "maybe we should take another route"?
Or did he purposely take his young daughter near a polite-looking group of protestors just so he could have a low-risk confrontation as fuel to demonize his detractors online?
I hope to God she was wearing a leash for everyone's safety.
I hope it was attached to someone more competent than her father. Like a roomba.
I'd prefer his version of events, honestly. Why do these fuckers ever get a moment of peace? Life should be made as difficult as possible for them, for every facet that we still have control over.
Much better than families and their toddlers being faced with pro Russian missiles.
Cry me a river you petulant fuck.
This is the price of being a politician and being a complete P.O.S. one at that.
Aw poor baby. You cannot convince me that this chubby man child doesn’t wear eyeliner
I'm confronted by this fucker's stupid fucking face every goddamn day
Deal with it you fucking child
JD joins the Elon club of using his children as human shields.
Good
Moar
not a good enough protest if he can talk about it
As a parent this really hits home. I can remember vividly the time I was harassed, 6-month-old in my arms, when I cut off desperately needed funding. I was literally causing death and misery, all because I thought a ruthless foreign dictator was kind of a cool dude. If we were both threatened and harassed for being massive turd nuggets, where does it end? /s
It's like you can't betray your allies and turn your country into a fascist shithole anymore. Well you can, but then some woke mob will calmly tell you that what you're doing is bad and I don't want my children being around that negativity!
Confronted. lol. He needs to actually be confronted, in a deposition.
Not the ideal version of "depose" but okay
Oh, it is…
LOL, "confronted".
What fucking snowflakes these assholes are. I've seen the video. More like "asked pointed questions and I am too much of a gigantic man-baby to deal with consequences like that".
FUCK YOU and every single asshole that voted for you.
Republicans didn't seem too concerned when a Democrat was confronted by a guy with a hammer who attempted to kill him, in fact it was a big joke with them.
Yeah, they proceeded to make it out like it was some gay affair, too, thinking that was really hilarious.
They don't give a fuck about decorum and civility and all that. They just take umbrage with their people even being questioned at all. They think the right thing to do is everyone just rolls over because they won in the slimmest of majorities and that this gives them a "mandate" to do whatever wild shit they want. And everyone else should just shut up and make themselves invisible. Fuck that noise.
Good. This administration should continue to be confronted and challenged on their stupidity. They are, and never should be, free from receiving criticism for their stances, and using the child to deflect from the real questions being asked is a cop out and completely on brand.
I bet the three year old has a more objective view on Ukraine anyway. The press should be interviewing them instead of JD.
Guess daddy should watch his mouth a little better then
"Don't hit him he got kids with him my apologies"
Oh boohoo - somebody maybe said mean things to him while he was using his daughter as a human shield (or maybe they didn't and he's lying).
And meanwhile, parents in Ukraine are digging their children's corpses out from under rubble.
I really don't need to know how old his couch cushion is tbh...
Boys' night out at the local strip club, he turns up at Ikea wondering where everyone is.
Nut up you fucking pussy.
Must be nice not having a foreign invader taking your kids away from you huh?
Must be nice not having your kids separated from you and put into cages huh?
You don't get to be a morally bankrupt Putin puppet and then appeal to actual morals.
Children do not make you immune from criticism. If you're afraid of your child hearing that you're a collossal piece of shit, leave it at home or get out of politics.
Or stop being a huge piece of shit.
I need to use this on my neighbor. Any time she gets called out on being a piece of shit, she uses her children as a defense and accuses the neighbor who called her out of hating children.
Vance is a verified unabashed fucking liar.
Where’s the proof this happened? Where was his secret service detail?
Remember his fabricated story about Haitians in Ohio? I call Bullshit 💩
Pretty sure you can see his security detail in the video. Most of the people seem to be elderly, shuffling around and you hear someone off-camera asking questions.
He's a fucking baby. If any of these grandmas suddenly had a notion of doing something violent, I'm sure "JD" "Vance" would have been just fine...
Just Fucking Dumb should think about the 3-year old Ukrainian children dealing with the shit from Russia.
JD: "Stay back! I have a child." Raises their child up as if they were shield
