Vice presidential debates don’t matter, we have been assured over and over. No one votes for vice president or a presidential nominee for her or his choice of running mate. You can go back and look at snap polls taken after past vice presidential debates and find basically zero correlation with the final election results.
All that said, the debate between Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) and Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) may turn out to matter. There’s no question, certainly, about who came out ahead. As Joe Klein, a heartfelt opponent of former President Donald Trump, led off, “Well, we saw the high school studies teacher destroyed

There was one objective for JD Vance last night: introduce himself to American voters who only know him through the media they follow. They’ve heard he was “weird.” They’ve seen memes where he called women “childless cat ladies.” They’ve seen one picture after another demonizing, mocking, and attempting to invent a cartoon character of their version of JD Vance. In other words, they’ve dehumanized him.
Well, they all have dripping, icky, rotten egg on their faces today after JD Vance’s masterful debate performance, one that will easily make and define his political career and go down as one of the all-time best debate performances in history.

As the candidates for vice president took the stage in New York on Tuesday night, the state of North Carolina was under water, Israel was under siege, the American supply chain was under threat of disruption by an East Coast port strike and the American people were under the impression that there was a leadership void in the White House.
In other words, the conditions existed for Ohio Senator JD Vance to stick it to the incumbent party, represented by Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.
And Vance delivered in spades. From the opening bell, Walz was nervous, overmatched and out of his

For years, Americans have watched as our country has been stripped of our jobs and stripped of our wealth. We've watched our companies get sold off to foreign countries. But with my plan for the American economy, this will stop immediately. When I am president, we will begin to take other countries' jobs and factories, bringing businesses and trillions of dollars back to the United States. Under my plan, American workers will no longer be worried about losing their jobs to foreign nations. Instead, foreign nations will be worried about losing their jobs to Americans. German car companies can become American car companies. We can beat China in electronic production.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz talked a huge game during his first appearance with Vice President Kamala Harris, his Democrat running mate. “I can’t wait to debate the guy,” he said of Sen. J.D. Vance, his Republican opponent from Ohio. “That is, if he’s willing to get off the couch and show up.”
Walz’s tune has changed so dramatically now that it’s unrecognizable. “Tim Walz is telling people he’s just as nervous about facing JD Vance as he was the Sunday afternoon in August when he warned Kamala Harris in his running mate interview that he was a bad debater,” said CNN’s Edward-Isaac Dovere. A dozen Walz operatives report

I was once taught you should always open an important speech by making reference to a shared experience.
So what do all of us at Rescue the Republic have in common? Nothing!
In a pre-Trump universe, chimpanzees would be typing their fourth copy of Hamlet before RFK Jr., Robert Malone, Zuby, Tulsi Gabbard, Russell Brand, Bret Weinstein, and I would organically get together for any reason, much less at an event like this.
True, everyone speaking has been censored. The issues were all different, but everyone disagreed with “authoritative voices” about something. Saying no is very American. From “Don’t Tread on Me!” to “Nuts” to “You Cannot Be Serious!,”

Six months after Rep. Tony Gonzalez (R-TX) sent the Department of Homeland Security a letter asking the agency to tell Congress how many criminal noncitizens have been released into the United States, Immigration and Customs Enforcement Deputy Director Patrick Lechleitner responded late last Friday admitting that ICE is aware of more than 600,000 non-detained noncitizens with criminal histories in the country. This includes more than 400,000 convicted criminals and another 200,000 with pending criminal charges.
Of those 400,000, 13,000 had been convicted of murder, 15,000 had been convicted of sexual assault, and more than 50,000 had drug convictions.

Why are we still asked to pretend Joe Biden is running the country? Every time he shows his face, he reminds the American people how much his cognition has declined and how he can’t be trusted to finish a speech or remember which foreign leader he’s introducing, let alone manage the daily affairs of running the country.
The man was forced to bow out of his campaign after he embarrassed the national press corps and Democratic Party elites during his disastrous debate against Donald Trump in June.
But Democrats and political operatives in the corporate media aren’t as concerned about Biden making us an international laughingstock until Jan. 20, 2025.

Censorship is the only hope for increasingly desperate Democratic grandees as Kamala Harris flounders in swing states and among Hispanic voters against Donald Trump.
The vapid candidate they installed at the last minute is shaping up to be even less palatable to voters than her predecessor, Joe Biden. Apart from her off-putting personality and inability to string together a coherent sentence, her biggest liability is the illegal migrant invasion.
As Biden’s designated border czar, Harris cannot evade responsibility for the irreparable damage on her watch, after 12 million to 20 million illegal aliens entered the country, including hundreds of thousands of criminals and terrorists.

Vice President Kamala Harris is fond of saying that Donald Trump is only in it for himself, not the American people. Well, this weekend we saw, in a picture-perfect example of psychological projection, Harris throwing a small business under the bus for her own supposed political gain. On Saturday, GOP vice presidential nominee JD Vance tried to drop in on Pittsburgh’s famed Primanti Bros. sandwich shop, only to be barred entry. This came much to the disappointment of waiting voters, some of whom angrily recorded the events on their phones.

It’s the Third World meets Bangkok. In "Squad" member Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s district in New York City, those who are described as scantily dressed migrant prostitutes line blocks of a long commercial strip during all hours of the day and night, brazenly soliciting sex to passersby while their pimps strike fear into local business owners, one of whom told Fox News Digital he’s been threatened for speaking out and is on the verge of closing his store.
The trash-filled streets of Roosevelt Avenue in Queens, which encompasses the migrant-heavy communities of Corona, Jackson Heights and Elmhurst, has become a veritable hotbed for one of the world’s oldest professions, and residents

Nearly all Gallup measures that have shown some relationship to past presidential election outcomes or that speak to current perceptions of the two major parties favor the Republican Party over the Democratic Party. Chief among these are Republican advantages in U.S. adults’ party identification and leanings, the belief that the GOP rather than the Democratic Party is better able to handle the most important problem facing the country, Americans’ dissatisfaction with the state of the nation, and negative evaluations of the economy with a Democratic administration in office.
