And that isn't enough to immediately kick him out of office. That's the truly incredible part.

Just a little bit of light treason, what’s the problem?
You hate freedom, don’t you
Sorry, we can’t enforce any insurrection charges. Ohios AG Dave Yost is too busy restarting the death penalty and going after 10 year olds for getting abortions.
Yep, I know. I'm in Indiana. Our AG went after the doctor who gave the 10-year-old kid from Ohio the abortion when it was still legal in Indiana, doxxed the kid, then tried to sue the doctor for doxxing the kid.
And he got his friends on the medical board to reprimand and fine her.
A group of people tried to overthrow the government and interrupt the peaceful transfer of power in order to install their leader as president. Those people could be accurately described as enemies of the nation. Senator Vance here is saying that, if he had had the opportunity, he would have seen that those people were successful. Vance has sworn an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States. Isn't this giving aid and comfort to the nation's enemies? That pretty much meets the definition of treason if so.
Treason is a stretch. Seditious conspiracy? 100%
Yeah that's a pretty cut and dry example of the same law they're using to bury Trump.
And should be burying Vance, MTG, Bobert, Gaetz etc. at the same time.
This man's mouth deserves to be treated as nothing less than a literal toilet.
Don't threaten him with a good time.
I'll have a better time watching him slowly die from sepsis.
Don’t denigrate toilets like that. They serve a useful function and improve public health, unlike the literal piece of shit J.D. Vance.
Look at his tiny chubby fingers.
With hard water tablets and a scrub brush?
The 2020 election that had a lot of problems, like fabricated election fraud claims and actual republican election fraud?
Got him confused with the NY AG from a few years ago. Not him.
After working at a corporate law firm, Vance moved to San Francisco to work in the tech industry. He served as a principal at Peter Thiel's venture capital firm, Mithril Capital.[21]
In 2016, Harper published Vance's book, Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis. It was on The New York Times Best Seller list in 2016 and 2017. It was a finalist for the 2017 Dayton Literary Peace Prize[22] and winner of the 2017 Audie Award for Nonfiction. The New York Times called it "one of the six best books to help understand Trump's win".[3] The Washington Post called him the "voice of the Rust Belt",[2] while The New Republic criticized him as "liberal media's favorite white trash–splainer" and the "false prophet of blue America."[23] Economist William Easterly, a West Virginia native, criticized the book, writing, "Sloppy analysis of collections of people—coastal elites, flyover America, Muslims, immigrants, people without college degrees, you name it—has become routine. And it's killing our politics."[24]
So bad home life, goes to Yale Law, works with noted shitbag Peter Thiel and is now doing evil out loud and proud. Great.
Title should be: Guy who is part of the government actively wants to destroy his peers.
One wonders if in the 1700s if Washington would have stood idly by and let Senators openly discuss overthrowing the Republic.
No, they would have been hanged
Saying the loud part louder.
Oh, bullshit. There is no way this guy really thinks that there were "problems in 2020", other than tiny d losing, and not just losing the popular vote.
He also cut a deal with epstien and refused to prosecute with plenty of evidence.
he took a vow to protect the constitution and he's going to fulfill that vow by ripping it to shreds just to put their doddering, syphilitic, insane, demented, narcissist god king in power.
I'd make the case you should use the 14th amendment on this guy right now. he just admitted that he will undermine the thing he is supposed to protect and defend.
I don't see the link to the onion?
His idol is Lance Vance from Vice City.
Because they share a last name and they're both traitors!
If he was in office during J6, Vance would have been cowering behind the Capitol Police like all the other would-be traitors.
Have the Dems done anything to fix the potential pathways to autocracy? Or didn't they get a chance to? Shouldn't that have been their campaign slogan?
God damn centrist corporatists suck
