One of these days, the Left will learn not to pick a fight with Vice President J.D. Vance. Vance is well-read, articulate, and unafraid to speak his mind.
He gave a barn-burner of a speech in Europe last week, and it got a bunch of Lefty panties in a twist. Vance is correct that Europe is on the wrong path, but they also don't have a First Amendment, which makes the German-style speech suppression legal (albeit wrong).
So when Mehdi Hasan (he's having a banner day) decided to call Vance out for the White House's embargo on the Associated Press, it did NOT go well for Mehdi. At all.
Hey @JDVance, I know you’re busy lecturing the Europeans on free speech, but have you seen this? https://t.co/jVoWE0Z5q1

Of course Vance responded.
Yes dummy. I think there’s a difference between not giving a reporter a seat in the WH press briefing room and jailing people for dissenting views. The latter is a threat to free speech, the former is not. Hope that helps!

BOOM.
Watch Mehdi cry like a German over Vance calling him 'dummy.'
Love me some Vance https://t.co/58A6klemt4

So do we.
There’s also freedom of press guaranteed in the first amendment, how does that fit in that dichotomy? It’s something different than freedom of speech. Why does excluding parts of the press not violate that right? @JDVance https://t.co/5jUlutj4Fb

That right does not include access to the White House.
This is f**king awesome. I couldn't love him more. https://t.co/A40u8JMwLI

It's so awesome.
Now ask me again if I have any regrets voting Trump-Vance.

No nopety nope. They are the only chance we have at saving the nation. https://t.co/uRtYRQbKtV
We love having Republicans who push back against the Left.
How great is it that Vance called out Medhi Hassan for his ridiculous false equivalence and Hassan turned off replies so he didn’t get humiliated even further https://t.co/bANjtfHVk5

It's so great. Media deserve nothing but contempt.
Vance bitch-slappin’ Mehdi like this is hilarious. Mesh tried to compare the WH removing privileged access from corporate ‘journos’ to people being jailed overseas by their govt for memes/speech. https://t.co/ldJQPNMT9M pic.twitter.com/3kc18e2cJt

This writer laughed. Hard.
😂 I like having a millennial VP tbh https://t.co/Ij3hSkEi1u

This writer is almost over the fact Vance is younger than she is.
Almost.
Can I just say how refreshing it is to have an intelligent VP who is also unafraid to call a dummy a dummy 👏🏻 🇺🇸 https://t.co/Tz4SWiR9oU

We need more Republican politicians unafraid to call a dummy a dummy.
