Vance is cooked, folks.

JD Vance in texts with far-right figure: Profane and off-the-cuff

Private messages show former president Donald Trump’s running mate entertaining conspiracy theories and scorning the late GOP megadonor Sheldon Adelson.

@stux One of the worst parts is that the company is actually to blame for having specifically designed their app to be habit-forming, but the dynamic is like unto the parent giving their child a habit-forming thing to occupy them because they're too busy, and childcare is too expensive, and the outdoors too car-centric and dangerous, for an alternative.

Uglier and uglier. Waarom denken verder weldenkende mensen nog steeds dat TwiX een geschikt informatiekanaal is? 🙄

@stevenbodzin @rosanita I haven't seen it but I also block prolifically. I'm also being really judicious about not speaking for the devil (i.e.: thinking about what your adversary will say before they've said it) because I find at least for my purposes that focusing on electing President Harris is disrupted by those thoughts.

I think a pretty reasonable rule would be that if your "unnamed source" turns out to be full of shit, you go on a muted list for as much time as it'll take to complete remedial training on how to cultivate trustworthy, credible sources for your reporting.

vance doesn't just represent Trump doubling-down on his most autocratic instincts, he makes it clear that Trump will pursue a national abortion ban if given the chance.
