  1. Hey Vance…did you never hear about the U.S. Constitution and those 10 Amendments?

  2. I’ve decided to crowd fund so I can seek an investigation into why JD Vance is such an insufferable asshole…..

  3. In my neck of the woods, we would call J.D. Vance a real piece of work.

  4. Since Vance is so concerned about alleged extreme political views of the spouses of government officials, how about we start with Clarence and Ginni Thomas?

  5. Everyone knows the first amendment protects my right to not be fired after hurling racial slurs at fast food workers, it does not protect journalists from prosecution after saying critical things about government officials.

    /s

  6. Still can’t believe this imbecile got elected

  7. Considering Trump has told voters he will be a dictator and that the GOP is under no obligation to do anything for the American people but “whatever Trump wants” means that anything *but* a dictatorship would be the GOP betraying their base.

  8. He can request whatever he wants but he won’t be getting this.

  9. The Russians and North Korea now own the gop this is very easy to prove. Russia has openly helped the gop this is fact and can be proven. To non Americans this is how other countries infiltrate and is also fact. So if you are a real American then you know the gop is compromised and if you choose to stand with them you are effectively destroying America and our constitution that many have fight and died for and yes trump committed treason and anyone that stands or supports him supports Russia and the downfall of America the greatest nation.

  10. but tRump said he would be a dictator already. it’s on youtube.

  11. “It’s almost as if Vance were trying to lend credence to Kagan’s concerns and prove the editor right.”

    Yes, no one conspiring to do this wants anyone to spell it out in an article the world can read. On top of that, my god, someone outside the circle of “brains” in the GOP thought this could occur? How could that be? They have shown such skill and prowess in their “thuncking” process through the entire, totally “subtle” attempt at STORMING THE CAPITAL. My goodness, who even noticed that little debacle? This should give anyone with half a brain reason to ponder the realities of any upcoming GOP presidency and in particular a Trump presidency. Note: Likely proving how many true believers have less than half a brain. It’s like Vance is saying, “Jesus, dude! Hold it down! No one else is supposed to know that! I won’t make it obvious no one is supposed to know that by trying to switch the attention here by bringing attention to this. Don’t look here! I mean please god don’t look right here!” Lord god they are thinkers in the GOP, aren’t they?

  12. Because going after journalists that dare call you a fascist is the exact opposite of what a fascist would do.

  13. Free speech for me, but not for thee.

    Curious how the GOP demands the ability to say all kinds of horrible things, but anyone that says something they don’t LIKE they lose their shit.

    These are horrible humans and we must vote them all out of office and replace them with people who aren’t sycophants and morons.

  14. Thereby proving the columnist’s point. Good one, Vance.

  15. >Or put another way, Kagan warned of a possible Republican dictatorship, which inspired Ohio’s junior senator to contact law enforcement, requesting a possible criminal probe into a journalist who wrote something Republicans didn’t like.
    It’s almost as if Vance were trying to lend credence to Kagan’s concerns and prove the editor right.

    Lol what a lil’ beeootch that vance is!! That’s right “jd”, call the cops on me for pointing out how shitty you are might make someone not vote for you and you call that trying to suppress the vote lol! No freedom of the press allowed by magas like him, what a snowflake. What an idiot and waste of daddy’s money at Yale lol!

  16. Gop doing a great job of proving that opinion piece is factual and 100% true.

  17. The party of small government at it again! Is there any freedom protected by the first amendment they haven’t attacked yet? At the rate the GOP is going, they’ll figure out a way to make the third amendment relevant again.

    Let’s crush these losers in November.

  18. The fascists are here folks, 24 determines if a lot of us need to leave the country soon because the dictatorship will happen. It isn’t some overhyped situation. These guys are here to fucking kill us.

  19. They’re al tripping over themselves auditioning to be trumps lead ass licker.

  20. JD Vance went from criticizing Trump to pandering to Trump for political gain. Vance here tries to criminalize a news opinion writer, in clear opposition to the Bill of Rights in the Constitution.

    The GOP has shown that they channel fascism for a Trump autocracy. This is more evidence of that.

  21. Vance: OMG NO!!! Some sleuthing journalist has discovered our evil plan to make Trump dictator for life! They must be silenced before anyone else overhears this!!! Our plans could all be ruined!

    Entire internet: Chill, dude, everyone already knows. Like, *everyone* already *knows*

    Vance: You… You do!?! All of you!? Then… I mean, why is nobody trying to stop us?

    Entire internet: Trust me bro, we’ve all been wondering that for a while now.

  22. Guys, this is straight up Nazi behavior. How did you “Nazi” this coming?

    Believe Republicans when they tell you who they are.

    Republicans used to yell that “Obamacare” would bring the death panels. Now they are making women carry unviable pregnancies and doing all kinds of crazy shit like threatening doctors and journalists with jail time.

    Republicans, we found the terrorists. Look in the mirror!

    Our democracy is on a knife’s edge. Vote accordingly.

  23. This guy went to Yale Law School. These schools need to be publicly shamed.
