Did you know that J.D. Vance has a cousin? Did you know that this cousin is a US Marine? Did you know that this marine served in the ukrainian war?

CNN was having an interview with him about his experience and how he thinks of J.D. Vances activities in regards to the ukrainian war.

And it goes pretty much as expected.

#Nate_Vance took part in the battles for #Kupyansk, #Bakhmut, #Avdiivka, and #Pokrovsk.

When #Nate heard his cousin arguing with #Ukrainian President #Volodymyr_Zelensky in the #Oval_Office of the #White_House, he became angry.

"#JD is a good, smart guy. When he criticized aid to #Ukraine, I thought it was because he had to please a certain electorate, that it was a political game. But what they (#JD_Vance and #Donald_Trump - ed.) did with #Zelensky was an ambush with absolute bad faith,"

"He won't answer a simple question!" 🙄

Journalists asked #US Vice President #JD_Vance whether the pause in aid to #Ukraine gives the Russians an advantage.

"We want the #Ukrainians to have a sovereign and independent country. We think the #Ukrainian troops have fought very bravely."

"The President is trying to send a very explicit message: the #Ukrainians have got to come to the table and start negotiating with President #Trump," he replied.

"Is #russia to give up laughing at the #USA in public?"🤔

"This is not gonna make anybody happy. The #Russians are gonna have to give up stuff. The #Ukrainians are gonna have to give up stuff." #US Vice President #JD_Vance.

Friends, have you seen information on what #Russia expected to give up, according to the #United_States?

If #Russia refuses to attack #Ukraine, that would be a true diplomatic victory of the #US Administration.

Je suis surpris d'entendre aussi souvent parler d'un vice-président américain, il me semble que les précédents on les voyait moins (je parle avec la mémoire qui remonte jusqu'à Bill-zigounette-Clinton et une vision subjective de la chose).
Qu'en pensez-vous ?

"Die Rede war ein einziger Trick. [...] Das Prinzip lautet: Wirf den anderen exakt all das vor, was du selber tust. Das verwirrt sie. Das bringt dich in die Offensive und deine Gegner in die Defensive. Das gibt dir Hoheit über die Begriffe. Eine Debatte wird nicht von dem gewonnen, der die besseren Argumente hat, sondern von dem, der die Begriffe besetzt."

Süddeutsche Zeitung · J. D. Vance auf der Münchner Sicherheitskonferenz: Der Wahnsinn hat MethodeBy Detlef Esslinger

"Err WTF? seriously, what
the fuckerty fuck?" 🤮😱

❗️The threat that I worry the most about vis-à-vis #Europe is not #Russia, it's not #China, it's not any other external actor.

What I worry about is the threat from within - the retreat of #Europe from some of its most fundamental values, values shared with the #USA - #JD_Vance, Vice President of the #United_States

It's easy to imagine but hard to describe the reactions of the audience.

HUGE Caveat: None of us were in that line. None of us know what exactly was said. None of us can get into anyone's mind to know what is being thought or felt.

My summation of the video of the handshake between and at the : Trump seems to have wanted and sought to shake 's hand. Harris and are in deep convo (Schumer is no doubt already strategizing how to get Harris's policies through a Senate vote, because that is what competent political parties do ---> they plan and strategize and make certain they have done their best to head off problems well ahead of time even while there is no guarantee will win). Trump is noticing that cameras and the group focus is on Harris. Trump wants (needs) to try to get some focus on himself because he knows he is "outside" the In-group. Trump appears to engage to facilitate a handshake. It is not a fully pleasant handshake by Harris, but she does not move away from the opportunity and engages professionally, as is appropriate for the occasion honoring and respecting the 9/11 victims and their families. Other media have reported that Trump tried, when he has Harris's hand, to pull her toward himself and she stood firm, not moving forward. (Creepy; but can only get a hint of that from this video when he sort of jerks his arm toward himself. ? WWF wrestling move?) seems to know is gagging for 's attention and seems to note to Harris that she got one over on and for the moment at least, has won against a disgrace of a former president. looks like he swallowed something disgusting, but quickly turned his attention to chatting with .

[I don't even want to speculate on the mini-me, please-love-me-daddy energy that is going on. and do not appear to really get along.]
