Until you admit THIS was an insurrection, shut the fuck up about protests. [View all]

Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) was interviewed on CNN by Kaitlan Collins about police arresting campus protesters:

COLLINS: So you agree that people who break in and vandalize a building should be prosecuted?

VANCE: Yes.

COLLINS: O.K., I’m just checking, because you helped raise money for people who did so on January 6.
