WATCH J.D. Vance Pitch A Hissy Fit When NBC Host Fact-Checks Him To His Face

Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) proved today during an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that he’s almost as thin-skinned and whiny as convicted felon Donald Trump, who reportedly has Vance on his shortlist of potential running mates.

Vance had his first meltdown when host Kristen Welker contradicted his claim that President Joe Biden has ordered the Department of Justice to investigate Trump to damage him politically.

“The prosecution of Donald Trump in New York, which I think now has fundamentally been thrown in doubt by this immunity case, it was one of the main guys was a Department of Justice official of the Biden administration who jumped ship to join a local prosecutor’s office to go after Donald Trump,” Vance alleged.

“Senator, that happens all of the time, people are appointed from Washington. The DOJ told Congress—, Welker pushed back.

That led Vance to go nuclear, acting like a child as he began raising his voice in the vain hope that speaking loudly would make his lies sound more feasible.

“Are you really saying, Kristen, it happens all the time! That the number –“

Welker then cut off the senator.

“Let me just finish this. It [Congress] reviewed all communications since Biden took office and found no contact between federal prosecutors and those involved with that case in New York. Can you stick to the substance of the question, though?”

In a second disagreement, Vance made the unproven claim that Democrats want to fund abortions up to birth, which he deemed “crazy,” which led Welker to again lay a brutal fact-check on him.

“As you know abortions, very few abortions, take place later in pregnancy almost always because there is a medical emergency.”

Much like Trump, Vance is a loose cannon who once said of the disgraced ex-president, Politico reported in 2021.

“I’m a Never Trump guy,” Vance said in an interview with Charlie Rose in 2016, a clip used in both the new ads. “I never liked him.”

Both ads also feature a screenshot of a Vance tweet from October 2016. “My god what an idiot,” he wrote, referring to Trump.

Vance expressed a similar sentiment in other interviews and since-deleted tweets from that time, including publicly mulling the idea of supporting Hillary Clinton, calling Trump “noxious” and “reprehensible.”

Fox Contributor Slammed For ‘Racist Garbage’ Attack On Kamala Harris

According to Fox News contributor Charles Gasparino, American voters should be terrified by the prospect of President Joe Biden dropping out of the 2024 race for the White House. Why? Because, Gasparino alleges in an article he wrote for the New York Post, Biden’s departure would clear the way for Vice President Kamala Harris to potentially be president of the United States.

Why is Gasparino so apoplectic about Harris as U.S. head of state? Well, because she’s a black woman, of course.

In his op-ed, Gasparino writes, “There is a raging debate in corporate America on the future of DEI, aka Diversity ­Equity and Inclusion, because it is literally destroying businesses that go there.”

“And yet the American public may soon be subjected to DEI writ large in the next president of the United States, if Kamala Harris finds her way to the top of the Democratic ticket while Joe Biden wilts away as the party’s presidential nominee after his horrific ­debate performance.”

“Yes, maybe the most irrepressibly fatuous politician in America may become the leader of the free world because the Democratic Party is unable to break its DEI stranglehold.”

Wouldn’t Harris be the logical choice to replace Biden if he were to step aside? After all, she’s been his vice president for four years and was part of the team that helped implement the Biden agenda. She’s also sharp as a whip, a brilliant debater, and has never lost an election.

Gasparinio’s column set off a firestorm of negative reactions on social media, where many commenters noted that he should have just called her the N-word and embraced his blatant racism.

Former U.S. Attorney: Jack Smith Can Still Do Tremendous Damage To Trump Before The Election

Even though there’s almost zero chance that any of the federal criminal cases against convicted felon Donald Trump will go to trial before the election in November, Special Counsel Jack Smith can still do tremendous damage to the disgraced ex-president in the months leading up to balloting.

That’s the warning from former U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade who appeared on MSNBC’s “The Weekend” this morning and told the hosts, “It is not just the defendant, it is the public that has a right to a speedy trial. I think the more progress he [Smith] could make before president-elect Donald Trump goes into office, the more he can do at the other end.”

“You do not have to go back to a grand jury to remove things from an indictment where they already found probable cause,” she continued. “So he can pare this down to just those acts that he believes are official acts and go for it. Certainly, it will be litigated but the public will have an opportunity to see what the unofficial acts were: Organizing false slates of electors, pressuring state officials to flip the outcome of the election, and exploiting the chaos at the Capitol on January 6 to try to press legislators to delay the certification.”

McQuade added, “All of that, I think, is entitled to a public hearing. Of course, also the documents case out of Florida. Judge Aileen Cannon has made no effort to act with urgency. — no reason that case can’t proceed all the way through January to see how much progress they make.”

Every new detail Smith exposes in the months before Americans go to the polls could prove damaging to Trump’s already shaky prospects of winning a second term as president. And in an election that’s already expected to be close, those details could be a giant albatross for him.

GOP Lara Trump Social Media Trump Supporters WTF?!

Lara Trump’s ‘Inappropriate’ Workout Video Causes The MAGA Faithful To Explode With Rage

Lara Trump is married to convicted felon Donald Trump’s son, Eric, and also happens to be the current co-chair of the Republican National Committee, a position that makes her one of the most influential members of the GOP in the Age of Trump.

Mrs. Trump is also an avid social media user, constantly posting content on Twitter and Instagram, including videos of her workout routine.

But a video she shared over the July 4th holiday isn’t sitting well with many of the MAGA faithful, who seemed to object to her gyrations and the fact that she was working out to rap music.

Here’s the video:

To most rational human beings, the video would be no big deal. But to many pro-Trumpers, it was tasteless and also included (gasp!) a rap music soundtrack, which led them to pitch a collective social media hissy fit.

Next time, maybe Lara should do her workout to some Perry Como or Ray Coniff. Then again, the Trumpers would probably whine about that the way they whine about everything else.

Al Sharpton’s Hilarious ‘Dunkin Doughboy’ Rant About Trump Is Today’s Must-See Video

MSNBC host Al Sharpton is going viral today with comments he made this morning during an appearance on “Morning Joe” in which he slammed convicted felon Donald Trump as the “Dunkin Doughboy.”

On Thursday, while golfing, Trump attacked President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.

“I got him out of the — and that means we have Kamala,” the disgraced former president remarked, calling Biden a “broken-down pile of crap” and saying of Harris, “I think she’s gonna be better” as a potential opponent, adding, “She’s so bad. She’s so pathetic.”

That led Sharpton to note, “It really is amazing when you look at the history of how Republicans managed an elderly [Ronald] Reagan, how they managed [Dwight] Eisenhower, who had a [heart] attack while he was president,” he explained to host Scarborough.

“He was a Republican, and now they’re trying to make the country think there is such a panic on what we don’t know about Biden.”

“We still don’t know if it was a bad night or if it was something else,” Sharpton continued. “I think he’s earned a right with his achievements and his accomplishments as president, for us to give him at least a couple of weeks to really decide what he is doing and to come forth.”

As for the interview Biden gave to ABC News that will air this evening, Sharpton commented, “We’ll see what happens with [George ] Stephanopoulos. We’ll see what happens with the press conference they wanted the next morning, immediately, for him to start running relay races to prove something when their guy is sitting on a golf cart looking like the Dunkin Doughboy, cursing every other word.”

There were howls of laughter in response to Sharpton’s new nickname for Trump, and the video is quickly going viral on social media.
