JD Vance is attacking immigrants by spreading the fentanyl lie. Let's be clear: Over 90% of fentanyl is trafficked into the US at ports of entry, mostly by US citizens. It is NOT an immigration issue. JD Vance needs to stop scapegoating our migrant communities. #VPDebate2024

As a litigator, I need to reiterate this. JD Vance may sound 'eloquent' in his practiced nonsense but this is a fine example of half the ostentatious idiots I see in trial - words without merit or citation. Listen to the facts. He has NONE. #VPDebate2024

So strange for Vance to introduce himself by including all of the programs he was raised on… which are the same programs he wants to cut #VPDebate2024
