The past week has seen an outpouring of hate from the far right over the wife of Republican vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance. The unremarkable fact that Vance is married to Usha Vance, a woman of Indian heritage, has become a fixation for white nationalists online. Following Monday’s announcement of Vance as Trump’s running mate, white nationalist “groyper” Nick Fuentes seemed to enter a meltdown on his broadcast, saying, “What kind of man marries somebody that isn’t a Christian? What kind of man marries somebody named Usha? Clearly, he doesn’t value his racial identity, his heritage. Clearly, he doesn’t value...

J.D. Vance has described the furore set off by Donald Trump’s comments on Kamala Harris’ racial identity as “hysterical,” while blaming the media for “overreacting” in the hours since.At the National Association of Black Journalists Convention in Chicago on Wednesday, Trump boldly—and incorrectly—claimed Harris “turned Black,” and questioned, “Is she Indian or is she Black?”“She was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage,” Trump said. “I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black. And now she wants to be known as Black. So I don’t know,...

Yesterday was the third time this year that an ad stating Chelsea Clinton lives in a beautiful Virginia home popped up on my laptop. My computer did not warn me this was a dangerous site, so this time, I clicked on the link.

Unverified reporting from Newsmax commentator Mark Halperin set the far-right network ablaze Thursday night with word that President Joe Biden would step aside before the weekend, but would not endorse Vice President Kamala Harris while doing so.In a bid to understand just how this would be received, Newsmax turned to a curious person to speak on behalf of the Black community: Don Trump Jr.’s fiancée, Kimberly Guilfoyle.“And I mean, recent polling shows, I mean, we have Kamala looking worse than Joe Biden in these swing states,” prompted Newsmax host Rob Schmidt. “If they do that, how are Black women going...

Republicans Have Found the Perfect Spokesperson for Black Women

Missouri State

The conservative Supreme Court has surprisingly chosen not to help out their buddy Donald Trump for once. On Monday, the high court declined to postpone Trump’s hush-money trial sentencing, after Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey tried to sue the state of New York to delay the legal proceedings. Bailey also sought to remove Trump’s gag order on claims that it violated the First Amendment rights of voters who could not hear the former president and convicted felon speak.The case was a long-shot effort, but still, it is surprising given the Supreme Court’s decision to grant Trump near total immunity last...

J.D. Vance doubled down on his poorly received joke about Diet Mountain Dew by toasting with a bottle of the fizzy drink Thursday during a trip to the southern border.“This is the good stuff here. High caffeine, low calorie,” said Donald Trump’s running mate before guzzling the soda on camera.Last month, Vance’s remark that Democrats found everything racist, including him enjoying the popular soft drink, was met with blank stares and a few awkward laughs at his first campaign rally after being chosen as the GOP vice presidential pick in Middletown, Ohio.“Democrats say that it is racist to believe, well,...

J.D. Vance Toasts With Diet Mountain Dew After ‘Racist’ Joke Falls Flat

Nicknaming President Joe Biden “Sleepy Joe” doesn’t seem to be looking so good for Donald Trump now that he’s the old man in the race.A Morning Consult poll published Monday revealed that voters are suddenly viewing Trump as the decrepit candidate after Biden dropped his campaign. Americans are apparently far more likely to describe Vice President Kamala Harris as healthy, mentally fit, and a strong leader than the 78-year-old Republican presidential nominee.According to the poll, 71 percent of respondents agreed that Harris was “in good health,” while 52 percent said the same about Trump—6 percent fewer than believed the same...

Trump insiders blaming Kellyanne Conway for bad press around JD Vance: Report

After President Joe Biden on Thursday announced a deal to free American hostages in Russia, J.D. Vance somehow tried to give Donald Trump the credit. Vance’s initial reaction to the news began normally, in an interview with CNN’s Steve Contorno.“Look, I think it’s great news, at least what little we know. We certainly want these Americans to come back home. It was ridiculous that they were in prison to begin with,” the Republican vice presidential nominee said, before going in a completely different direction.“But we have to ask ourselves, why are they coming home? And I think it’s because bad...

In a painful twist for his campaign, Donald Trump now appears to be the belligerent old-man candidate that he had made President Joe Biden out to be.During a packed rally in downtown Atlanta on Saturday, the Republican presidential nominee had several memorable verbal gaffes, including failing to pronounce simple words correctly and at one point completely glitching out after saying Vice President Kamala Harris’s name.“Together we will stop Kamala Harris’s nation-wreckting—uh, I’ll tell you what, when you see what she’s done to our nation, she’s wrecking our nation,” Trump said. “The radicalism will take back our country from the worst...

Watch: Old Man Trump Keeps Short-Circuiting During Rally

When questioned recently about running mate J.D. Vance, Donald Trump offered this full-throated defense: “Historically, the vice president in terms of the election, does not have any impact.”Trump has replaced life partners before and, according to Republican Party rules, there’s still time to ditch Vance… but only if he’s willing to step aside. To do that convincingly, Vance would need a good excuse. Unfortunately, there isn’t one. But here are 15 bad excuses that Vance could use.1. 	Caught a brain worm from RFK Jr.2.

15 Excuses J.D. Vance Could Use to Drop Out of the Race

Former President Donald Trump’s re-election running mate J.D. Vance was caught in another resurfaced clip talking about Trump and his MAGA fan base.In the video, Vance blamed the “well-educated and the alt-right” for a “hyper-racialized” 2016 election—and even called some Trump voters “racists.”In the clip, reportedly taken in 2017 at the University of Chicago Institute of Politics, Vance added that race frequently comes up because “race will always play a role in our country.”About the 2016 election, Vance said he “definitely” believes “that this was a racialized discourse unlike any that we’ve had in a long time,” sharing that he...

J.D. Vance Says Racism ‘Definitely’ Helped Trump Win in Resurfaced Clip

A new report from CNN reveals more evidence that Trump vice presidential pick J.D. Vance once believed accusations of sexual assault against his running mate.Earlier this month, Mediaite reported that, in a 2016 MSNBC appearance, Vance said he believed Jessica Leeds’s accusation that Trump groped her. Sarcastically noting Trump’s tendency to lie, he said, “This is sort of he said/she said, right? And at the end of the day, do you believe Donald Trump who always tells the truth? Just kidding, or do you believe that woman on the tape?”On Tuesday, CNN reported that Vance repeatedly expressed similar sentiments online....
