I hereby propose that Vance is short for Grievance. JD Grievance, vp of grifting and grudges.
Grievance is a key word. While high-profile right-wing men on the Internet, including Tate, Musk, Trump, and JD Vance, and right-wing pundits like Tucker Carlson claim to have all the good things in life—gobs of money, lots of power and influence, luxury goods—they radiate misery, resentment, grievance, sourness, whininess. At least since Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan, the culture of the right has been driven by an emotional poverty, a stinginess and lack of empathy dressed up as a rational insistence that the rich and the state cannot afford to meet the needs of the poor, whose poverty is all their own fault anyway. Resentment is the recruitment bait; the manufacture of grievance is central to the marketing of all the rest of the package; the much-discussed crisis in masculinity is a for-profit operation, even if many of its operators sincerely believe in and embody its miseries.

My kingdom, or even just my mortgage, for a state government that actually responds. If the ruling regime wants to launch an attack on Californians in order to seize and hold power, then by all means let us withhold the taxes we pay to fund them.

People are showing up for routine immigration check-ins and ending up detained for days in overcrowded, filthy conditions at the Miramar ICE facility. Even ICE employees blew the whistle. This facility must be shut down immediately. Abolish ICE! #AngieforFlorida #Miramar

No amount of support for Russia can end the war, because Russia is the criminal aggressor. A modicum of support for Ukraine could, however, end the war, by making it impossible for Russia to continue. This should not be a hard choice.

If Putin stops fighting, the war ends. If Zelensky stops fighting then his country will be occupied, leaders murdered, language banned, businesses stolen, children kidnapped. That's what happens in Russian-occupied Ukraine.

WOW. Kristi Noem and Elon Musk, among others, "chose to turn the power of the federal government against a singular employee with an impeccable record of public service. ... The attacks against Ms. Comans were based entirely on false information" and many officials "knew [they] were untrue."
In conducting this hearing, the Court is not called upon to resolve factual disputes between
the parties. The facts set forth in this Memorandum Opinion and Order were proposed by the
Plaintiff, unobjected to by the Government, and then deemed admitted by the Court. Dkts. 74, 75,
77.2 These facts establish that high-ranking government officials, including then Secretary of DHS
Kristi Noem and Elon Musk, engaged in a coordinated public relations campaign to impugn the
personal and professional integrity of Ms. Comans. For reasons unfathomable to this Court,
officials chose to turn the power of the federal government against a singular employee with an
impeccable record of public service. In short, Ms. Comans was professionally targeted and
personally attacked by government officials for no legitimate reason. The attacks against Ms.
Comans were based entirely on false information, and many government officials knew the
accusations were untrue at the time they were made. With no regard for the truth and with no
consideration for the personal and professional effect on Ms. Comans, government officials
exploited their access to mass media outlets to broadcast false information. These false
statements reached hundreds of millions of people. The purpose of this Order is, to the best of
this Court’s ability, to correct the public record and establish as a matter of law that the
statements made by these officials about Ms. Comans were objectively and demonstrably false.

As the Trump administration has relentlessly pursued immigrants, federal agents have run roughshod over the constitutional rights of U.S. citizens. We’re showing you every incident we’ve confirmed — along with the receipts: propub.li/3TBuddL
500+ U.S. citizens detained since the start of the second Trump administration. 100+ U.S. citizens held after agents questioned their citizenship. Nearly all of them were people of color. At least 70 American children and teens detained, some of whom were handcuffed. 36 U.S. citizens held for at least a day without being able to contact a lawyer or family.
