Summary

JD Vance claimed pro-Ukraine protesters harassed him and his daughter in Cincinnati, but demonstrators say they merely passed him en route to a protest.

Video shows a civil exchange where Vance defended U.S. withdrawal from Ukraine aid, contradicting Trump’s stance on Russia’s invasion.

Critics accused Vance of using his child to deflect backlash over his role in a heated Oval Office meeting with Zelensky.

Protests against his Ukraine policy continue as Russia escalates attacks, with demonstrations held in Washington, D.C., and Europe.

    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!
