The Black woman VP answered a Lester Holt question in a way inside-the-beltway folks didn't like. The white man VP just tweeted that he doesn't believe in due process. Which do you think will get more outrage from our national political press?

Hadn’t seen this cap before. How hard must it be to fight for your country, for a land where your people have lived for THOUSANDS of years, and now have a draft dodging President trying to hide everything you and your ancestors have done. I had no idea what to say to him :(

Savings accounts, pensions, working class 401ks, all of these have been decimated by Trump. He is building policy off the crackpot ideas of one disgraced economist, Peter Navarro, and we are all paying the price. Watch @therickwilson.bsky.social here: t.co/CfwAJVZWOt
