You can't be serious. Will you back off and leave this woman alone? She is an American who is the daughter of Indian immigrants. No doubt that's how she refers to herself too.

NP here - mmm, sorry, no. If you are born in the US you don’t refer to yourself as an immigrant. You would refer to your self as an Indian American/asian American, etc. my parents immigrated and I have never called myself an immigrant - bc I am not. I’m a child of immigrants. For him to say otherwise is reading “but, but, I have black friends”

Maybe he doesn't know what an immigrant is. A lot of people are really dumb.

Just watched “Hillbilly Elegy” a movie about some nobody who is now likely going to be vice president. They used an A-list director and cast for what amounted to a boring and campy Lifetime movie. It’s hard to imagine this film was made for commercial purposes.

The budget is estimated at $45 million. $45 million to make a boring movie about some guy nobody’s heard of… …who then less than a year after the release of the film announced he’s running for senate and now, just 3 years after that, is Trump’s VP.

It’s also worth mentioning that the movie is based on JD Vance’s book by the same name. A book that nobody cared about and only had mediocre sales. That is, until the New York Times out of left field wrote an extensive review of the book launching it into best seller territory.

But that’s not all, the New York Times featured multiple articles and interviews with J.D. Vance to discuss his book and his story. They’ve even invited him to contribute to articles as a writer. Yes, that New York Times.

I guess good things happen when you’ve got friends like Peter Thiel, Rebekah Mercer, American Enterprise Institute, The Manhattan Institute, The Hoover Institution, etc.

Why did this dork's boring ass memoir get a $45m movie deal?

Because it had good book sales after a whole lot of people who didn't like the book recommended it as great for other people.

Why would he agree to a debate? It can only hurt the Trump-Vance ticket at this point.

He doesn't know that Kamala will be the VP nominee.

IN 2022, THEN-SENATE candidate J.D. Vance sat down with Aimee Terese — a pundit and podcaster little known to the American public, but prominent in the sloppy trenches of hyper-online digital reactionaries — and removed his filter.

“I certainly would like abortion to be illegal nationally,” Vance said in the episode, explaining why regulating abortion at the state level wouldn’t work. “Let’s say Roe v. Wade is overruled,” he said. “Ohio bans abortion … you know, in let’s say 2024. And then, every day, George Soros sends a 747 to Columbus to load up disproportionately black women to get them to go have abortions in California. And of course, the left will celebrate this as a victory for diversity.”

Because it was a compelling story for millions of people.

Because people thought it would help them understand how our country elected Trump.

Yeah, right. More like $45M worth of bio cover for this creepy Manchurian a heartbeat away from becoming a 40 year old POTUS.

As Republicans feted U.S. Sen. JD Vance Tuesday night at the GOP's national convention, welcoming the author and venture capitalist as presidential nominee Donald Trump's running mate, one of Vance's proposals for the future of abortion rights in the U.S. made national news.

Citing reporting from The Lever, MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow warned viewers about Vance's endorsement of a request by at least 19 Republican attorneys general who asked the Biden administration to allow them access to the medical records of people who travel across state lines, including to states that allow abortion care.

"They want the right to follow women from their states all over the country to see if they might be getting an abortion somewhere. or might be getting any other kind of reproductive care anywhere that they want to bring criminal charges about, so they can use those records for prosecutions," said Maddow.

Last year, she added, Vance joined other GOP lawmakers in pressuring the Biden administration to withdraw a rule it introduced after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. The rule prevents state and local police in states that ban abortion from using medical records to prosecute people who have obtained abortion care elsewhere.

The question isn't is she an American (citizen), it's was she born in the United States. If she was, she's not an immigrant. If she is an immigrant, that's certainly worthy of some articles. Ticket features two men married to foreign women - that must be a first ever?

It made nearly $0 at the box office.

Was she born in the U.S. or not?

Fake negative reviews? His memoir is corny as hell, and full of blatant lies and crap he made up, and it was a sales flop... before New York Times and other mass media started inorganically astroturfing it. Then he gets a $45m movie... and it flopped. That corny book was fit for a Lifetime movie, at best.
