"It's the first I heard of it." is a comment you make when someone asks you if you've been to the great new restaurant in town. It's NOT what you say to a grieving widower after he tells you about his military wife - who was killed in the Iran War!

Listen to the phrase "Department of War" in Vance's response and feel how callous and ignorant this makes our Country sound. This is the World view of the US under these assholes Trump, Vance and Hegseth.

“We only talk about winning and all the great things President Trump has done. Bad stuff doesn’t fit into our talking points. But thank you.”

Vance goes on to tell the guy, “talk to me later [about this].” TRANSLATION: “Don’t make me respond to this on a public stage.”

Liar Liar Pants on fire Perpetually spinning Fauxktales that his Ever shrinking base Laps up When we regain power He will be investigated And prosecuted What terrible human He is

If true, these morons never look at their failures to try to fix them. They just pass the blame and keep doing what they want. No introspection in order to improve or to avoid another occurrence, just same old same old.

JV Dunce is still channeling his inner “GOP Senator”, where the response to every question is “I haven’t heard about that”.

He served 3.5 of his 4 yrs in North Carolina as photographer+ writer. The 6 mos in Iraq were on an air base, doing the same. He never saw combat.

If he hasn’t heard of those deaths but the rest of us have, that’s a problem. Or, does he intend us to believe he hasn’t been aware of the failures of leadership? In either case, it’s disqualifying. He must think he can use this material to impugn Hegseth if he runs. It’s all sh!t.

Vance also told him to take it off line or basically to shut up. Vance is the is the worst kind of person. That father deserves a public way to say what he wants to say and a reasonable public answer.

Well, RESIGN. You’re the VICE PRESIDENT - in charge in a heartbeat. Especially in a war you declared without Congress, it is your JOB to KNOW EVERYTHING. You must have been briefed DAILY, at a minimum. If you a) didn’t participate in these FUNDAMENTAL duties, or B) lied to us, GET THE HELL OUT.

I hate humans, but I don't wish them - or do them - any harm, at least not deliberately! Well, OK, there are a select few who are currently working hard at destroying the US that I wish harm to, but in general no.

If that’s the first time Vance has heard of this, he should resign. This means he is checked out and more interested in his own run for the Presidency, which he will lose.

“I haven’t heard of it” “I haven’t read that” “I’ve been busy” It’s your damn job to know about it. You are paid to know about it. If you have time to do literally anything else, you have time to investigate things that affect people’s lives. It’s your job.

It is so typical of a liar to say “it is the first time I’ve heard of it”. He is the VP. Did he have his fingers in his ears saying La, La,la. Always looking for a scapegoat, never taking responsibility that is the Trump Vance administration. too busy supporting Hegseth giving everyone testosterone

Someone tell that lady from CBS, that’s what a self-own looks like. Not sure that she, or JD, has the braincells to understand it, though.

The process to hold leadership accountable starts by voting blue across the board this fall. Get rid of the do-nothing Congress and impeach Hegseth to start. Those six families are at least 21 families in the US alone, and 18,000 families in the ME (because yes, they’re living the nightmare too.)

Another obvious failure of leadership coming from our inept VP. This is the FIRST he heard about this?? I also heard him say that he is not aware of Trump and family profiting by billions of $$. No way he is believable.

Trump: “I don’t know”.~ Musk shutdown of Starlink resulting in Ukrainian deaths JD Vance: “This is literally the first time I’m hearing about this” ~ Military member death Speaker Johnson: “Haven’t seen it” ~ ICE violence videos Republicans ~ out of touch~ out of our government in 2026 and 2028

In Vance's defense- there's probably a 50/50 chance he's actually not told something. Especially if, behind closed doors, they do believe he's the guy leaking stuff. However, Sen Vance also told Ohio it wasn't his responsibility to find out the truth so... easy not to hear if you close your ears.

Then dig the plugs out of your ears and start listening, JD. Because a LOT of us veterans have been saying this for...years. Since that idiot Hegseth was appointed and started savaging the command chain.

He ,as pitiful a VP that he is, definitely should have heard of “this “before now . While the rest of us citizens have already heard several reports of failed war management by Whisky Pete who is firing all the brass that will challenge him , Vance pretends he never has . Sickening 😑.

Note to JD: you are in a position in which you are held to a higher expectation than the average bear. Get your shit together and stop making excuses. It’s embarrassing.

Offline? Why JD? This is a public problem. And stop pretending you give a fuck. We all know by now the only thing you care about is power and appeasing Peter Thiel. So go and get rooted.

Gratitude for an idiot tearing up the Iran nuclear agreement, then lies that their obtaining one was imminent but we "obliterated" their capability. Then attacked anyway? Didn't anticipate them closing the straight? These soldiers should not be there.

VP Vance and Speaker Johnson's beliefs? "Let’s get our father to drink wine and then sleep with him and preserve our family line through our father." Genesis 19:32 "David...saw a woman bathing...wife of Uriah...slept with her...conceived...Uriah...will be struck down and die.” 2 Samuel 11:2-15

But Republicans are the only party that "supports the troops." Good thing we didn't elect #HillaryClinton or #KamalaHarris, isn't it? They would have gotten American soldiers killed in another useless Middle Eastern war! Ain't that right, you useless couch fucker!

Vance hasn't heard any of the many criticisms or failures of Hegseth? Or any criticisms of the whole war such as the administration's failure to plan for the closure of the Strait, depletion of key weapons, or killing thousands of civilians, including a school for young girls?

Would be so funny if he was honest. "Oh, yeah, we ran out anyone in military leadership who had any sort of independent judgment. Just total cronies across the board. Turns out that means losing competence, as well, which has consequences. Same thing with the White House, which is why I'm here."

That’s because JD doesn’t give a rodent’s backside about those who serve their country, their Constitution, People of United States He has no honor, no decency.. he represents insatiable greed, evil, and uses hatred to deflect from those who want consolidation of wealth and power Know your enemy

JD Vance wants to be the next President. A less capable, less compassionate or less deserving candidate would is hard to imagine

Vance is a liar. We all know our leadership is failing in Iran. A bases in the Middle East are literally unprotected and vulnerable to drone attacks. This entire regime needs to be held accountable

Straight out lie, and if it’s the first he did hear of it then he has no business being vice president. And certainly not president. The administration should know the intimate details of every human being who passed away under this voluntary war, which is being mishandled every moment of every day.

You are the fucking VP. That you are unaware of US soldiers dying in a war your administration launched is inexcusable

Many of us can easily recognize how much of a piece shit he is…. And how stupid his answers are But because Trump is resigning IMMEDIATELY after the midterms… his lowkey demeanor talk is going to convince stupid INDEPENDENTS he’s the guy we need in 2029

What a schmuck Vance is , he thinks his bullshit means anything???? All FOR NETANYAHU AND HIS POSSIBILITY OF NUCLEAR BOMB???? We are not falling for this bullshit!! Vance is a fucking war criminal just like every bastard in the DOD that that is responsible for every soldiers death! Fuck you vance!!

His response says that he hasn't been paying attention to anything at all happening in this administration. That spells incompetence. Ignorance. The inability to admit egregious failures starting at the top job.

This the type of shit my ma would say when I complained about my little brother being mean... And it's a US official, pulling that shit to the spouse of a fallen soldier... I'm not surprised in the slightest, but still pissed at the reality.
