Should we believe that the ACTUAL JV has joined Bluesky? I’m not so sure that’s true. But if this is him, I’m all for harassing him endlessly. Let’s tell him (or his fake posts) that he isn’t welcome in our world.
Tim, it’s not just a you thing: JD has the ability to push the boundary of disgust out every time he utters a word or flashes that smarmy look of his.
Most punchable face in the U.S.
Thank you for pointing that JD Vance person out. I was able to mute them and block them on BlueSky.
You need to post your BlueSky handle here, because there are away too many Tim Millers on that site to track you down. I promise not to shout at you, as long as you don't shout at me.
The more Vance speaks the more I feel the need to pray for the president’s health. Trump is an idiot, but Vance is evil. Lord help us if he took over.
I can’t believe you spent time making this video. It’s very “whatever “, this is not new or news.
Thanks for featuring this. A very good reminder that it may not be a good idea to depose Trump. The devil you know is sometimes better than someone like Vance and he's next in line for the throne.
How did this story slip under the radar? Major public land sell-off to being Fall 2025 fast tracked by Trump and the Regime crossing multiple states including remote areas and excluding Montana for undisclosed reasons. Looks like someone's interests are being catered to by Trump in Montana.
Millions of acres that will forever change the face of America and be irreversible. And land that will be forever fenced off from public use and preservation.
Research and learn more and then support the organizations caught off guard with little t no time to wage a response. This is highway robbery, and everyone should be breaking phones in Congress and protesting it. The sale is only weeks away at this point. Fuck!

He reminds me of Eddie Haskel from “”Leave it to Beaver”…the sneer, the evil twinkle in his eyes. Always up to no good and lying and scheming 24/7. The definition of untrustworthy.
I know the whole situation isn't funny, but I am grateful for your wit and delivery when you describe the absurdity of this administration.
He’s a creep.
Smarmy is the perfect word for that tool
JD looks like the devil when you do a close up on his face. Lucifer incarnate. People with skills show do a meme
This is just one person's point of view, but maybe other people out there can relate to this. I'm an artist. I spend a lot of time looking at faces. I study their coloring, proportions, facial features, facial expressions-and their eyes.
Looking at Trump and his entourage - including Vance-I have never seen so many pairs of dead-looking eyes. If eyes are truly windows of the soul, what are we seeing there? I know this may be hard to explain to people who don't draw, but if I try to sketch their features, my pencil won't do it. It's like there is no expression or personality to latch onto.
(There's probably a sci-fi or horror story plot in there-maybe someone else will write it.)
P.S. Dear Tim, please get enough sleep. Don't let the (Metaphorical. Let's hope.) ghouls, werewolves and vampires get to you!
As an artist, you notice details. So do I. Trump is wearing gold ties (wealth)and white MAGA hats (distancing himself for a bigger audience). The MAGA sycophants are wearing blue ties (victory over Dems). Bondi has appeared in pure white dresses (angel and/or bride) and many of Trump's Barbi dolls wear pink (submissive girls). Bondi is no longer wearing pearls and now sports a silver cross (Christianity). People might poo-poo this but it's all symbolic and not an accident. Hitler was into this kind of thing as well. Keep on drawing! Imagery is very powerful.
I've seen those eyes -- and think they are usually on the face of an abuser. The last think the victim of a murder sees in their oppressor. When you think on it the eyes of those wielding AK-47 weapons inside the classrooms of our babies. The ones who survived and the ones whose only remains are blood, flesh and bones splattered; all of them the last thing they saw in the last human face they were forced by captivity to focus were dead eyes.
When this is all over let's get guns (not the right to bear) but the freaking guns off our streets and exist more like our allied nations where their children do not have part of their schooling be how to survive a stranger bursting into their lives in what for all appearances was a space for learning and safe with a machine gun.
Unimaginable that we cannot provide for our children when our allied democratic countries do it with such ease. Why? Because we are not in charge. How? Well, never again but because we yielded our power which is the greatest in the world when we unite surrendering to prejudice, fear and division. A direct result to the fact on the whole we did not see ourselves as the victims of a deliberate strategy to weaken us for the kill.
I agree about the guns. We have the right to bear arms but not weapons of war. Even AR-15s are small stuff compared to military assault rifles like AK-47s. And don't tell me you need them to hunt deer. By definition, they're accurate to 1700'--almost six football fields-- and are designed for killing as many people as possible. Get rid of the damned things.
We are an isolated nation populated in the majority by people who have never traveled outside the country other than maybe a brief cruise or tour.
We on the whole are completely ignorant as to how backward we have become under the influence of special interest groups that make money in growing their product whatever it might be that is designed to profit not serve and in fact harms us.
I am aware of what life is like outside our isolated space and it makes it very difficult for me and others like me to speak up for once we do it is put down as THE LIBS and other cheap shots that people gobble up.
It is literally POLITICALLY INCORRECT to do the right thing for the people. Every good proposal is shot down and accepted by the majority as “socialism” and “too liberal” even a sensible response to the borderline crisis. The only game in town is holding power and making a profit. And that agenda is not serving “we the people” of this country.
Most of us would be shocked at the quality of life sustained outside this country. Education. Prioritizing Children. Prioritizing Families. Health Care.
When you bring up the elephant in the room which is today you get tarred and feathered.
But my God why would anyone send their child to a public school where the probability they will be killed is high; and the probability they will hear of another child being killed is 100%? Of course, it will follow that their learning is disabled by the anxiety of this knowledge far too much for a young child to comprehend but it is in fact their normal.
I would not send my child to public school today and there are no affordable private schools, but they are in fact no safer. Isn’t that fucked that in a way our children have nowhere safe and nowhere that is serving them 100% in this country to receive an education.
That is a fact! And we accept it!
What do Jd vance and Mike lee have in common?
I'll bite. What?
they're morbidly obsessed with social media accounts. Sorry, I thought it was an obvious similarity
JD Vance is all over BlueSky where we are to distract us from what is happening: WAR for one and the MASSIVE SELL OFF 250 MILLION ACRES OF OUR PUBLIC LANDS that is fast tracked to being in the Fall of 2025 and not covered in mainstream media. Google the Rolling Stone Magazine article published last week.
JD Vance is not the cartoon figure so many of us paint him to be. He has assignments and right now it is to annoy and distract us. And it worked! We were caught blind sighted. Who here knows about the public land sell off? Who here thought Trump would bomb a nuclear base in Iran? None of us including myself can raise their hand on that question.
What Trump wants, Trump gets. He is a master class con artist. We need to get him out! The war will predictably lead to his delaying all elections and quelling all protest leading to his staying for a third term as well as a blood bath of soldiers thrown into harm's way to benefit Trump.
EVERYTHING TRUMP DOES IS TO BENEFIT TRUMP and his crime family. He is not a President but one who conned his way into the role to benefit himself by stripping us of all our resources leaving us a hobbled and barely functioning nation. It's highway robbery but he is going no where soon.
We have an ever-deepen8ng hole for ourselves and the world to dig ourselves out of.
As an NP who worked in an endocrine practice from 2000-2010 & prescribed gender-affirming hormones the entire time, I am wondering where my big-pharma $$$$ kickbacks went? Not to the physicians I worked with, either. Please note the dates of employment & I also question the WAY-late-to-the-table GOP's pettiness about the trans population.
I think it would have been much more fun if NO ONE had reacted to his dumbass stunt at all. No engagement with his posts, no news on it.
It's tempting, isn't it? If they feed on being the center of attention, don't give it to them. I'm in favor of way less coverage but not eliminating it. We need to keep track of these assholes as they try to tear the nation apart. Then we can protest and protect the victims. For more news of current events without seeing their ugly faces as much, check out BBC.com.
I agree with Tim wholeheartedly about JD, but this vid coulda been a little better put together.
Tim,
RE: There is unserious and then unserious
Maybe Shady knows that his National Security Advisor and CIA head are as unserious as he is.
RE: More kids Less Cat Ladies
Apparently Shady doesn't know how to handle his kids in public.
Many at the poorly attended birthday fete for Darn'Old Drumpf, King of Dementia-Felonia, have disclosed that Hillbilly parenting is not well appreciated in public settings.
JD is an aggrieved hillbilly from Ohio (I grew up in Ohio trust me when I say I know his type) his behavior is all on par and is incapable of ever rising above it
Unserious smarm blob. What's to like?
Love you but not the sparkling background.
jd vance is a tool.
Ever since Jeff Tiedrich made the astute observation that the guy looks like a werewolf, that’s the first thing that pops into my head whenever I see him. Because it’s true! His true nature is to rip the throat out of our democracy!
Doesn’t the constitution require congress approval to commit an act of war? This strike is not President Trump’s decision. We have not been attacked by Iran. The thoughts of JD Vance in a such an important role keeps me up at night.
“Swarmy” , perfect Tim!
Tim, please consider the possibility that the less the VP is involved in this situation, the better.
WHY IS NOBODY REMEMBERING THAT BIBI IS ESSENTIALLY A TRUMP IN-LAW? He slept in Jared’s bed on visits to the US and Jared was relegated to the basement. Does anyone think that the thug from Queens is not gonna follow the lead of the Thug from Israel? Cmon.
The first photo you showed of Vance is the stuff of nightmares. We are all here with you on JD Hate. And could somebody please explain to me the appeal of any of these social media platforms? The only place I “post” is Substack, and then I do it anonymously. I don’t want any followers, much less hundreds, thousands or (god forbid) millions of them. But when the VP of the US is spending most of his time on X and now BlueSky, it’s time for removal. Ditto the President, but then he should never have been elected in the first place.
We can't think any of these people are grown-ups...they are unhappy bully kids who want to take it out on everyone else rather than do hard work of maturing.
It’s NOT a “you” thing.. I too hate JD Vance a little bit more every time he speaks or I see his smarmy face!
Are you wearing a Brian Jonestown Massacre T-Shirt? I need to know if you are even cooler than I originally thought
Thank you for keeping me sane Tim. We met in Dallas at the Bulwark event. You can bum a smoke off me anytime!! Hope you guys all come back soon!!! Texas can flip! 🫶🏻💕
Hating JD is an all of us thing.
I’m not sure if I like JD Vance, Stephen Miller, Russell Vought, Peter Thiel or Elon Musk less, though I do know each of them gets less likeable to me whenever they slither out and speak publicly. Thank you for highlighting JD Vance at this juncture, Tim Miller. If DJT croaks (or Leonard Leo plots to dispose of him), the American people will have an earful of JD far more regularly. Ugh.
I definitely hate JD the most. That said, I would say Stephen Miller is the most evil, Russell Vought is the most conniving and Peter Thiel and Elon Musk both just think too much of themselves. But hands-down, JD is the douche-iest!
They have us chasing fathoms. We need to keep their ultimate goal: collapse of all structure. Vance, musk, Thiel and Yarvin are the only ones that matter. Trump Doesn't cognate anything past 9 minutes. They know this. He has a useful idiot in service to the dark enlightenment. The religious right? The fundamentalist s are a mechanism to bring about the techno fascists Utopia. They are "long-termers" , and, 100 years of chaos are in the cards, because they imagine a Utopia in the far future, where we will fuse with computer's, drop all pretense towards passion and feeling, And buzz in a lobotomized universe devoid of humanity.
Does this new enthusiasm for BlueSky have anything with his weekend Montana meeting with Murdoch père et fils ?
Not sure why people on the left criticize anyone in this administration for not doing their jobs when they were picked BECAUSE they cannot do their job and/or then are not interested in doing their jobs. They grift just by affiliation. The incompetence is the point.
J D is on it alright, Twitter and BlueSky.
I'm losing my mind about this ruling about trans kids. Of course I care about these families, but the thing that's sending me over the edge is the hypocrisy. Parents must have the ability to decide about vaccines and masks--when the decision affects the community at large. For trans kids to get care--affecting no one--the government will decide over parents and medical professionals. I fucking hate these people.
Ditto
Tim, hard to believe you find BlueSky too difficult for your sensibilities compared to Twitter. But it’s new for me having the VP of the US as the Chief Trash Poster.
In the recent past, didn't Tulsi order her people to rewrite their intelligence report so it didn't make Trump look bad? If he gave her time, she would have them write what he wanted.
Tim, thanks for this. Everything you said is appreciated.
He’s an asshat that invented a hillbilly background story to add to his rags to riches myth. He’s a grifter who, much like most leaders in MAGA, is also a sociopath that can’t see beyond his own wants and needs. Fuck him.
Tim! You crack me up...I love your commentary so keep up the good work regardless of what folks say on BlueSky :-)!
Seems like he can't escape his roots. Maybe some therapy would help. He is meaner than a junkyard dog. Cruelty is his world.
More food fights in the middle-school lunchroom. They all seem to be addicted to Twitter. To the detriment of their jobs and this country (not that they would be competent even off Twitter), and probably their families and friends (if they have any).
Bre careful Tim, he is probably the next president.
His eyes are scary to be quite frank- I find looking into his eyes unsettling- and that’s simply a pic. Half the problem- no, 90% of the problem is every interaction is online. We need to look him in the eye, democrats in the eye, republicans in the eye. I notice people hate meeting your eye for an extended gaze when they are dishonest.
In red states, you are minor for gender affirming care but not for labor and even marriage. Also what about parent's rights to decide for their children? So many uncomfortable questions.....
I am not advocating violence against anyone but JDV has possibly the most punchable face I have ever seen. Well, maybe Stephen Miller. It’s close. Again, in no way, shape or form advocating violence. Just making a personal observation. Smarmy, condescending, smug and sneering is not a good look for anyone.
It is so obvious. He was sent by Musk and Trump and the Regime to divide us and get us brawling on BlueSky which is not found there for certain.
Everyone here should find his profile and BLOCK him and then leave a comment for everyone there to BLOCK him for he is there like a shill at an auction driving up the heat and literally sent there by Trump and DOGE.
My post before blocking him will be if I wanted to argue and be distracted by the REGIME I'd be on "X" but I am not and advised everyone here on BlueSky to BLOCK the enemy of the people a small man who was sent her by Musk and Trump to start a fire we may not be able to put out; and the FIRE is a distraction FROM THE WAR Trump wants to declare a state of emergency; much more than Vance trolling. He was sent there to start a fucking fire.
BLOCK!! Spread the word. BLOCK! Then let's stay united and focus on what to me is so clearly Trump's choice to benefit by starting a war no matter what the cost. Our children will be drafted and deployed. Our economy will crash. Our resources will go completely toward the "war effort" and Trump will declare a state of emergency here and delay the elections and then not leave when his term is done because unlike the great leader FDR who the people needed to stay as we wrapped up WWII, Trump will cop a plea he needs to stay on to lead us in WWIII.
All of this is a distraction. The arresting of senators. The National Guard. The pussy footing of his masked J6ers all of whom are like costumed clowns. Trump cares not for them. He cares for himself and his family, his crime family each of whom do not care for each other and band only for being part of the big rip off now that they are all benefitting from the ultimate power of being POTUS.
BLOCK VANCE. And hit the streets to PROTEST THIS WAR! BREAK THE PHONES of Congress. Go to INDIVISIBLE and find what you can do. In WWII the elderly collected tin cans for he war effort. Everyone can find something to do. DO IT~
It is definitely not a you thing, JD Vance becomes more and more unappealing the more I see him.
Really Im on Bluesky. And everyone seems really nice.
JD Vance is a spinless flip-flopping hate filled Trump taint sniffing smarmy whiney little bitch. JD Vance has no moral code. JD Vance holds not strong beliefs beyond what will benefit JD Vance. As a veteran JD is what everyone calls a blue falcon.
I agree with you about Bluesky. I went on there hoping for some adult political discussion but could find none. I don’t remember the last time I was on there. I don’t enjoy The Bulwark comment sections because we can have a discussion by people with differing opinions and also get a little salty at times without people getting offended because someone used the “wrong word”.
JD the bootlicker. He is detestable, but he’d be less so if he wasn’t so condescending. Does the guy ever talk when he doesn’t sound like he’s talking down to everyone else in the world?
His is a punchable face.
the last pic of Vance with the sideways grin looks postively evil.... which he is
jesus...it's like me when I was in grade school, staring out the window at the trees, the sky at whatever while the nun drones on and on.....but I'm not in the situation room. So, yeah.... we be in a world of hurt, dear friends......
Smarmy is the best word for JD - thanks! He makes my skin crawl. Love for him that he was kicked off bluesky
Please stop showing pictures of his unctuous face during your video! I had to put my hands up over my eyes, he's so unappealing and vomit-inducing.
“Vituperative imperiousness is JDs jam.
He really is so stupid… He thinks that going all Maga is his ticket to the White House when all anyone in this country is craving is authenticity and fearless truth
Hold on Tim....there's 100% agreement among Americans that Vance dropping the Ohio State NCAA Football trophy at the White House rockets him to the top of the Time Magazine Peckerwood of the Year award ...oh the humanity
JD still doesn't have a grasp of who he is. He changed names several times, wrote a partially fictionalized saga about his life (which earned fame and a nice income), somehow became involved with Thiel (who he probably idolized and showed him how to make beaucoup bucks), now idolizes Yarvin and has adopted that ideology. I bet he befriended Uday and Qusay and convinced them to talk their daddy into nominating him for VP. This immature, insecure boy feels it is appropriate to lecture world leaders. I still wonder what he says that explains his bigotry and phony puritanism to his children, wife, and her parents. This administration is a nightmare.
Remarkable face shots of the VEEP. What flashed into my mind looking at that smug porcine visage was “Animal Farm… this is one of the lower status pigs in Animal Farm.”
Not his fault I suppose that the physical resemblance is so close. But the behavioral convergence is indisputably contemptible.
Cripes, they all weren’t wearing the same shade of blue, were they?
It's a uniform.
Waiting for the tailoring to become more military-like in upcoming months.
With lots of gold braid, to match the Oval Office decor!
Nope, not on Bluesky anymore. It only took him 15 minutes to get banned for his insane posts.
I’m worried about the potential escalation of things at home—JD becoming POTUS.
It does appear to be that an overwhelming portion of the actions the current admin takes is to own the libs. Is frustrating when so many people will try to sane wash their actions with other motives.
Firing on all cylinders, Mr. Miller. Well done.
The VP ususally has the job of being invisible. JD wants to be seen as relevant very badly.
No, Tim, it’s not just a “you” thing. This dude is a twisted POS, and he makes my skin crawl every time I see him or hear his condescending voice.
Maybe this is my own “me” thing, but every time I see his face I think of Damien, the devil’s spawn, in The Omen. There is simply something profoundly sinister about this guy, and it goes much deeper than merely his looks.
Honestly, though, there are so many people in this trump administrative menagerie to detest that picking which one I loathe the most is an impossibility. JD is definitely in the top 25, though.
Tim, thank you for this. Your sarcasm really works for me and helps me stay sane. I really, really love it. After laughing out loud though, and for a moment not feeling so alone in this insanity, I am paralyzed with sinking feelings of despair and horror. Is this what we have become? What a nightmare. Maybe some coffee will help. The day is young. Let’s see what fresh hell will reveal itself today.
Dammit JD now I’m dehydrated from all the lib tears I’ve cried 🙄. Anyone feel owned yet?
Tim, Thanks for update on the clown prince. You showed some very scary pictures. The first with Rubio sitting next to the dummy in chief showed the new fascist uniform. Blue suit, white shirt and red tie. Later you showed JD with the same uniform. No, this isn't a cult. Anyway, how can we not be terrified when you look at who's in the situation room. Life and death decisions being made by such incompetent, unserious fools. Back to that smirk on JD's face. When I was a kid we had a rolly, polly punching bag. No matter how many times you hit it , it always bounced back up. If someone wants to make a fortune, just put the picture you showed of Vance's face on it. Shit, I'll buy two right now. Look, Vance is so out of his element, so illsuited for this or frankly any job that requires actual work, that texting and tweeting is really all he knows how to do. Finally, there's an old Italian saying, " the fish stinks from the head", with this many idiots running our government you probably can smell it on Neptune.
I'd like to see a whole line of punching bags - bags for the whole family - with the faces of Vance, Noem, Hegseth, Rubio, and of course that orange guy. Or - more economical - velcro'd faces on a single punching bag, where you could just swap the faces out depending on your mood.
Now, I want some of those Wall Street Journal editorial writers to comment that it's people like me, violent libs, who are raising the political temperature. Oh, and I'm especially guilty when I call right-wing leaders fascists.
Design it and sell the merch i.e. the 🍊 shyster-in-chief.
Sorry - obviously that particular annoyance was still on my mind from reading the Journal last night. 😡
So glad to see the VP of the USA has nothing better to do but troll people on social media...not like there are any big crises in the world going on at the moment. Meanwhile the president is installing two giant flag poles around the White House. Priorities.
I wouldn't piss on JD Vance if he or his couch were on fire. Except in his eyes maybe.
don't do that....his mascara will run, not a good look for the Hillsbury Doughboy
You're not the only one who dislikes him MORE every time I see or hear from him....
JD is tweeting when we are concerned that the maga felon Trump regime could go to war for Netanyahu and put ALL Americans at risk!
JD is a perfect match for the other felon trump cabinet maga regime inept trash!
Looks as if they are all melting down. . .
like the Witch in Wizard of OZ.
Instead of tweeting, maybe they should think. Put maps on the Wall.
I would also recommend a World History Time Line - the kind that look like a wall paper border.
Trump and his merry band think the war will end - Gaza is wiped off the map and now, the bombs are turned toward Iran. They are so wrong. . . . the memories will not die for children who witnessed the horror of starvation and death.
Contemplating “what could happen if I do this?” is a sign of intelligent and responsible leadership. Do not expect it from this administration.
I don´t think it is a very tough (group) decision what was being discussed in the Situation Room. They might as well not have had that meeting. That is why we knew it was happening - it was just theatre. No one in that room would be advising anything that Trump would really listen to. Not only because of their gross incompetence, but also because the issue at hand for Trump is nothing military strategic for the US, it is personal. In the end it is Trump that has to choose: do I do what Putin orders me to do (not attack, not get more involved in destroying Iran, because Iran is Putin's ally and drone supplier) or do I dare defy my puppet master's orders and then look like a strong man along Bibi the Butcher, and then claim it was me that did it all? Since at this moment the latter part is not certain, and Putin is certainly pressuring Trump continuously, he cannot make his decision yet. So it is a flip-flop flop. Again.
I need everyone to go look at the feed from the Megyn Kelly Show from June 11th onward…
(for fuck’s same don’t listen to her)
but PLZ read the descriptions of what Megyn with a Y —feels deserves coverage in June 2025.
…Tells us everything we need to know about these deeply fucked up, disturbed, personality disordered, no balls, cowards. May they get all they put out.
Imagine the reaction from DJ Neckbeard if Kamala had spent the first six months of the Biden administration having Twitter slapfights with randos?
If Twitter is now X, does that mean Twitter is available as a name? I can’t get used to the term, Skeet.
I still call it Twitter, and I call all social media posts tweets, as an FU to Elon coming and going. Coincidence that it's also the lazy girl's way? Of course.
No, it’s not just a “you thing” Tim; I despise JD a little bit more every time I see a pic of him or even hear about something he’s said or done. JD totally gives me the creeps…..and, as someone else said, he’d throw his wife & kids under the bus in the blink of an eye, if it meant he’d get more power. He’s a vile & dangerous fuck.
💯
Vance’s face is changing. His eyes are beadier. You can’t trust that.
Why do nazis always have to follow libs around, tugging on their pigtails? Can’t they just sit at home, read Mein Kampf, and leave the rest of the world alone?
OMG! It is a deliberate attempt to distract us and get us all gabbing about it while Trump figures out how he can make even more money for him and his crime family by starting a war. Block Vance on BlueSky and get back to work. Plan your next protest. Start recruiting now. We need to double our numbers. WWW.INDIVISIBLE.ORG
IMAGINE. Imagine going to some right-wing comments section and just trolling, for hours. How pathetic would your life have to be for that to be the best option you have? I'd pity them if they weren't such *ssholes.
That is NOT what Vance is doing. He has been sent to BlueSky to start a small fire; to divide us. Block him on BlueSky! It is all a distraction, and it is not a compulsion but in fact an assignment. Block him and plan for your next protest. Let's double the numbers. Let's rock their world. WWW.INDIVISIBLE.ORG
Trying to "own the libs". What a waste. Liberals are not looking for the opinions of the right. Dont care. #criticalthinker
That is so true! Let's free ourselves from their pettiness for they are smaller than "we the people" a strong and diverse blend of cultures made only stronger by our differences when united. There is much to do but no one person or group can accomplish what greater and greater participation of the whole of us can do together.

They are unserious people in charge of a very serious situation. We’re screwed.
OR
They are ham fisted, low IQ fucktards in charge of a situation which requires delicacy, intellect and expertise. We’re doomed.
We as a nation elected a master class con man and head of a ruthless crime family to hold the most powerful position in the world. Of course, he will surround himself with likeminded criminals and thieves and liars and scum of the Earth. They are also the lowest denominator as a group in competence. Fully incompetent and uneducated. JD Vance holds a degree but shows no evidence of that education. Scum bags in our house. Who let them in? Whomever it was it is now your job to work doubly hard to get them out!
They are both
I saw it written that JD VANCE will do absolutely anything to ad-VANCE. We do not want him to succeed Trump as POTUS.
So petty. He is disgusting
So, I feel pity for JD Vance. I imagine his inner Portrait of Dorian Gray is going to be a painful experience some day. That Situation Room must have been really difficult for him to need a trans bashing pick me up on Bluesky to handle it. Me thinks the lady doth protest too much.
Jokes aside. We DO NOT want him to succeed Trump as POTUS.
He won't IMO. Only Trump has the charisma and the CON to hold this group together. Demos- same
History has shown, however, that when one oppressor is removed another will rise. This is not a reason to be afraid of who or what will replace the sheer corruption and evil which is Trump and his crime family and cabal of incompetent sociopaths. For united a people can and will in their unity indeed tap it down to a whimper.
Democracy cannot survive without maintenance and that is the lesson we should take away from the current crisis for maintenance is the job of the people.
We have agency to shape the future and write history if we are vigilant in our civic duty and never stop using our voices; and refuse to surrender to our baked-in prejudices, which when given free reign is poison to a democracy and clearly why it is used as a weapon for rising autocrats.
It takes discipline to make way for the greater good versus being a barrier. www.indivisible.org
He gets depressed when he knows Dumpty's not going to call on him.
JD has diarrhea of the mouth (fingers in this case) because he has shit for brains!!
A man who was condemned by two Popes in succession. What a record!
He is a ridiculous combination of cringey servility and unwarranted arrogance... and I agree, the eyeliner tattoos are pathetic
Uriah Heep, with eyeliner.
Perfect!
When he used that moment in the Oval Office to demean Zelenskyy...nothing like being a dick when all cameras are trained on you and the recipient of your trash talk is impossibly vulnerable and can't really respond freely. Yeah, Vance is repugnant.
“Repugnant” - excellent choice of words!
Vituperative imperiousness is JD’s jam.
JD was suspended from Bluesky. He climaxes quickly.
When was he suspended -- just lately?
It was right after he joined and temporary.
good job BlueSky -- it is good when we give not quarter or voice to the enemy
