JD Vance KICKED OFF AIR After Refusing to Answer on Corruption

“George, I don’t know what you’re talking about." - someone who probably knows what George is talking about

JD Vance did a one-on-one with George Stephanopoulos on ABC News and got kicked off the air for refusing to answer whether or not Tom Homan accepted a $50k bribe — as the FBI recorded he did last year.

Vance’s answer? “I’m sure that over the course of Tom Homan’s life, he has been paid more than $50k for services.”

When Stephanopoulos asked his (very direct) question again, Vance said, “George, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Playing dumb must be easier for him than for most.

While evading an incredibly clear question, JD Vance also showed off just how deeply unlikeable he is once again, saying, “Here’s why fewer and fewer people watch your program and why you’re losing credibility, because you’re talking … with the Vice President of the United States about this story regarding Tom Homan, a story that I’ve read about but I don’t even know the video that you’re talking about.”

Pulling the VP card while being condescending and lying to cover up clear government corruption is insane when more than half of Americans view you unfavorably and you have the charisma of a dead rat, but what comes next is almost even more unbelievable.

Vance goes on to say, “Meanwhile, low income women can’t get food because the Democrats and Chuck Schumer have shut down the government… you’re focused on a bogus story, you’re insinuating criminal wrongdoing against a guy who has done nothing wrong instead of focusing on the fact that our country is struggling because the government is shut down.”

Finally, Stephanopoulos does what every news host should do when Republicans start uncontrollably lying — he cut Vance off and moved on.

As a reminder, every single branch of the government is under Republican control — they shut down the government, not Democrats. In fact, Democrats are actually still fighting for the people amid the shutdown by protecting our access to healthcare and ensuring premiums don’t go up — and the thing is, Americans know that. 67% of Americans surveyed said that Republicans bear a ‘fair amount’ of the blame for the shutdown, and as people continue to work without pay, flights get delayed or canceled, and disruptions don’t end, I think that number will just continue to increase.
