Pro-Ukraine protesters dispute JD Vance’s account of confrontation
www.independent.co.uk
Demonstrators who questioned the vice president say he fabricated his account of the latest confrontation following a widely condemned Oval Office meeting with Zelensky

Summary

JD Vance claimed pro-Ukraine protesters harassed him and his daughter in Cincinnati, but demonstrators say they merely passed him en route to a protest.

Video shows a civil exchange where Vance defended U.S. withdrawal from Ukraine aid, contradicting Trump’s stance on Russia’s invasion.

Critics accused Vance of using his child to deflect backlash over his role in a heated Oval Office meeting with Zelensky.

Protests against his Ukraine policy continue as Russia escalates attacks, with demonstrations held in Washington, D.C., and Europe.

    This is even lamer than his usual couch theatrics about feigning being “diSrEspeCtEd!!!1!!!”. This comes off as Vance being this soft and weak couch potato who feels threatened even by the sight of signs. Considering how little concern he showed about Ukrainian children being “confronted” by russian missiles, he is now eligible for my prayers. He still have to work for my thoughts though.
