And Vance was on Charlie Kirk's show 30 days ago demanding ordinary Americans be held to a higher standard at their place of private employment. But taxpayer funded congressional toadies saying "I love Hitler" and calling black folks "watermelon people" is "pearl clutching."

Vance trying to shift the narrative to “college kids” when the group included comms staffers and a state senator. Look… the GOP is going to have Nazi scandals on a regular basis for the foreseeable future, which is a predictable consequence of drawing political support from American Nazis.

“In nursing homes, neonatal units, and ICU wards, researchers are racing to turn pain—medicine’s most subjective vital sign—into something a camera or sensor can score as reliably as blood pressure.”

There's also no such thing as a "red city." Every major metro area in the country is liberal until you get to, like, Chattanooga. And you're gonna see protests in fucking Chattanooga too! This was 3 months ago! youtu.be/IezQhwM9o6k?...

Bitch, you were on Charlie Kirk's show 30 days ago and led a campaign to get fucking baristas fired for making jokes on social media. But congressional staffers - paid by tax dollars! - saying "watermelon people" and joking about putting Americans in ovens, that's just jokes. Eat shit, couch fucker.

There's no greater indictment of the bottomless pit U.S. society has become that I'm currently being bombarded with stories about Kevin Federline in 2025. I'm sorry the checks stopped dude, but you need to go away & stop trashing Britney. Media only using her name for clicks is gross too.

Fascinating. Politico notes that when notified of the texts, many state-level Republicans fired or condemned these cretins. Now Vance emerges to excuse the racism, and calls the reaction to it "pearl clutching."

He seems determined to purge the party of its last enclaves of decency.

You know what's awesome about life today? Any time I discover a new band, I have to look them up and see if they're actually real human beings and not ai slop. It's so fun. Definitely helps the "good stuff is out there, you just have to look for it!" argument. The future is so cool guys.

I just checked and this is real. It's on Border Patrol's official Instagram (I don't see it on Facebook) and is being celebrated by Nazis on Twitter, as you can see in the screenshot.

The clip is just 13 seconds long too, so it's a very intentional thing. We've got a Nazi government.
