Senator JD Vance (R), the Vice Presidential Nominee for the Republican Party, visited Kenosha today. The main topic of conversation was public safety. “I want every single child in this country, whether they’re rich or poor, whether they grow up on the right side of the tracks or the wrong side of the tracks – every child deserves to have public safety and that’s what we’re going to do when Donald J. Trump is president,” said Vance Tuesday afternoon. “We’re going to stand up to soft on crime prosecutors. If a police officer does their job and brings in a bad guy, we need some prosecutors who actually lock those people up and put them behind bars. It’s common sense.”

Vance continued, “You all know this better than I do, that four years ago, Kenosha had terrible riots after a police shooting. And who was it? Who was the president of the United States that promised that he would send in law enforcement if asked?

That was Donald Trump. Who was it that pacified the streets of Wisconsin and ensured that those riots didn’t spiral out of control and burn down the entire city? That was President Donald J. Trump. And of course, we know the governor didn’t initially want the support from President Trump. But after a couple days of those riots, he relented and did the smart thing and allowed President Trump to send federal support.”

Vance’s comments came on the heels of two very important local endorsements – The Kenosha Professional Police Association and The Kenosha County Deputy Sheriff Association Boards. Both boards of directors voted to endorse the Trump/Vance ticket recently.

Unlike Kamala Harris, Vance took questions from the media. One question came from CNN’s Kit Maher:

“Donald Trump has enlisted the help of Tulsi Gabbard to prep for his debate. I’d like to know how you were prepping for a debate with Tim Walz, who has described himself as a bad debater. Who’s helping you and how are you prepping?” asked Maher.

“Well, I found a good friend from back home who embellishes and lies a lot. And I’m having him stand in for Tim Walz. That’s what we’re doing during our debate,” Vance joked. “But look, all kidding aside, what we’re going to do is we’re going to focus a lot on policy. Right. The way that I’m trying to prepare is to try to make sure that we’re prepared to answer the American people’s questions on how we’re going to make their lives better, how we’re going to make their communities safer, how we’re going to bring back prosperity and low prices to the American economy. And we’re going to focus on policy. And then obviously, we’re going to answer whatever questions the moderators have.”

  1. Albert Brian Gonzales? Really?

    Real Statements of Albert Gonzales

    About protesters in Kenosha:
    ‘I would ask the fire department why don’t you turn your hoses on those folks?”
    Kenosha News 06/29/22

    From Gonzales’ book, A Fateful Two Minutes: His thought immediately after shooting Michael Bell in the head:

    “Yaay–woo hoo! I did it! I cheered inside my head, as though I scored the winning touchdown.

    From Gonzales’ interview on the podcast Live from America, with Jeremy Herrell, 06/23/22.

    https://rumble.com/v19l4vj-live-from-america-6.23.22-5pm-democrats-refuse-scotus-rulings.html

    Herrell: “. . .do you believe that is truth enough that they stole the election?”
    Gonzales: “Oh, yea. There’s no doubt. I mean, Mike [Lindell] has done his homework, I have studied it, I watched the 2,000 mules, there’s no doubt, . . .They have proof enough that it was not legit.”

    What a flake!

    1. The 2020 election was stolen. Is your head in the sand? There has been plenty of proof of that. Brian is a good man, you really shouldn’t let him live in your head rent free 🤡

      35
      24
          1. The folks who think men can have periods and babies are calling republicans weird. Now that’s rich.
            The folks who think a 3-yr-old’s behavior and limited vocabulary can deem itself the opposite gender are calling Repubs weird.
            The half of American citizens who think it’s good for the country to have unvetted illegals pour over our borders by the millions are calling Repubs weird.
            The people who criminally protect pedophiles and rapists—especially if they’re illegals— think Repubs are weird.
            F*ck off.

            22
              1. Why do prosecutors in K-town with hold key pieces of evidence from @Judge Gerad T Dougvillo?!

      1. Of course he won! All of us smart people who think for ourselves known it!!! We aren’t brainwashed by the media like the libtarded dumocratic morons with their heads stuck up their assholes!!! GO TRUMP!!! 🇺🇲❤️✊️

        15
        5
      2. “Stolen Elections!” LOL

        For a group that babbles so much about snowflakes and participation trophies, y’all are quite fragile and whiny when you lose.

        No one steals the elections. WE THE PEOPLE vote for who we want. Majority wins. And you are frequently NOT the majority.

        10
        14
        1. Who’s the majority then? Don’t tell me that a bunch of weird ass mother fucking he-shes, open border loving, baby killing sick fucks are now the majority???? We are doomed if you are correct! Why don’t you and your weird ass libtarded dumocratic scumbag pack up and move to a country that’ll accommodate your sicknesses like it become the normal way of life and take all of your little whiny ass libtarded dumocratic moronic indoctrinated kids with you!! Bye bye bitches! GO TRUMP GO ✊️✊️✊️

    2. Shoulda turned the house on them. It probably would have prevented some of the millions of dollars of damage and destroyed businesses those lunatics did to our city!!! #HoseThem

  2. J.D. could use a better hair style. That’s a pretty wild, choppy, juvenile cut.

    For VP, I would have preferred a good conservative out of Pennsylvania or Michigan — the two states that matter most. And I would have preferred a VP who didn’t previously compare Trump to Hitler.

    I’m afraid this Republican duo may fall to the unqualified, cackling, goofy former prosecutor from Cali. (And her choice of sidekick is even less impressive than Trump’s.)

    11
    21
    1. Vance made those comments 10 years ago when he was 30 years old and influenced by the likes of the dumbshit Bush globalists at National
      Review. He obviously learned the conservative globalists were wrong about Trump as Trump became one of the best Presidents we’ve
      ever had. Even while being distracted and harassed by the Uniparty’s Russia collusion hoax that lasted years, Trump was able to
      accomplish more America First policies than any President in recent history. Imagine a President that fought for legal immigration only,
      energy independence and bringing manufacturing jobs back to our country—that was Trump and that WILL BE Trump with Vance at
      his side, no matter what his hair cut looks like.

      28
      4
    2. At first when I heard of Walz, I was like, “Tim, who?” But he is a governor and served five or six terms in Congress whereas Vance just got there. If Trump goes to prison or is otherwise unable to serve does Vance have the experience to go from junior senator to President?

      That’s a question I’m wrestling with.

      6
      13
      1. Screw experience, I’m glad he’s not a swamp thing yet. Experience can be taught whereas cronyism cannot be undone.

        30
        2
      2. Have you looked at MN over the last few years and you are worried about Vance having experience. I would rather have 2 monkeys running the country rather than Harris and Walz

        30
      3. My instinct tells me Vance would do a at better job as President than responsibility avoiding, NO accomplishments, Kackling Kamala. Just look at the border. Her responsibility.
        JD grew out of poverty. JD is a veteran. JD ran a business.
        BTW. KK. A pretend black. Her Jamaican grandparent Hamilton Brown was a sugar plantation slave owner. KK was the junior Cali Senator. She did not receive ANY votes during her 2020 presidential run. 2020 she agreed to be VP for the “segregationist” (correct) Joe Biden. Now she is annointed to the 2024 presidential ticket. NO votes or democracy involved in her presidential Democratic party selection.

    3. You focus on the haircut! Really. Oh, nothing more important than a haircut. Never mind Kammy leaving the boarder open, never even visiting. Or her communist thoughts on price control. Or feeble Joe who keeps bringing up Uncles that were eaten. You guys got some real winners. They are not serious about running this country well. They want to run it into the ground. Your Grandkids will thank you for voting democrap.

    4. I agree, I think this makes Trump 0/2 when it comes to vice president pics, I would have preferred senator Tim Scott, myself.

  3. The only good commi is a dead commi.
    That being said, I will vote for a commi over a dumb, stupid pu$$y who, along with 2 other idiots in blue could not handle one drunk teenager and then compared shooting him to shooting a deer in a book he wrote about his epic, criminal failure.

    7
    16
    1. Not sure what you’re even taking about, use English to try to re-explain yourself. I understood the Commie Kamala part but you lost me after that.
      Of course, what else is there to know aside from word-salad Kamala being a socialist.

      13
      2
        1. Don’t give him too much credit.
          Albert Brian Gonzales is the officer who shot Michael Bell’s son in the head during a bungled traffic stop. He wrote and self published a book about it and wrote about what a rush it was when he killed the kid.

          4
          4
  4. This CIA RINO is a bigger fraud than the CIA fake Watergate plumbers.

    No Marine goes from Camp Penelton to Yale. At Yale, he just bumps into a bunch of billionaires like “peter Thiel” who now works for the CIA, wrote a book, then is installed on the VP ticket. Yup, reminds me of when they installed CIA director Bush as president.

    Just find me one jug head that goes from fake war to Yale. just one, as rare as a sober Irishman.

    Kev, may delete. He hates when a person makes fun of fake republicans.

    4
    16
    1. So raw intelligence and courage can never rise from Scotch-Irish middle class roots?
      Your eliteism and reverse racism is showing.

      Vance was top of his college class at U of Ohio. That is a BIG school. He deserved his spot at Harvard Law. Also no CIA plant could make it through Marine training.

      Limp wristed Obama, who never went to a college class at Occidental and then magically was made editor of Harvard Law review despite not being at the top or middle of his class is an example of a CIA plant. As for Thiel, Vance is just smart, if you want to get super rich these days you join tech investment banking, you don’t become a lawyer.

        1. Everyone is shaking in their boots about your lawsuit

          Then your first lawsuit should be against Zuckerberg who deletes conservative views all day everyday on Facebook. Ohhhh, but you’re ok with that. Clown.

      2. Me too

        SAYING IT, DOES NOT MAKE IT SO
        They fail.
        MAGA

  5. Vance did his homework and he is right! The cops in Kenosha are doing their jobs catching and arresting people, but it’s the court system DA and Judge’s that are not actively charging them properly, they are very very weak and give plea deals to criminals and KILLERS that don’t deserve them! Additionally continually letting REPEATERS out of jail! The fentanyl drug is OUT OF HAND in Kenosha and the people that deal and kill with it need to be jailed for life, and our wimpy Kenosha judge’s are cowards!

    1. Vote out the incompetent, Soros Compramised, Carli Crew.

      1. Look at those crazy 🤪 eyes. That could rightfully fit the administration.
        But it’s time for a fair and equal change. Vote Senor Xavier Solis 2024!

  6. Those throwing stones while hiding behind ‘anonymous’ are ridiculous! Stand up like a damned adult and own your opinions!

  7. Are you better off today than 4 years ago ? Simple question right ? Is our country a safe place now compared to 4 years ago ?

    While i was defending my business in downtown kenosha doing physical combat with people attempting to loot our business . It was the Democrats that stood by and watched our law enforcement officers suffer attempting to restore order . When Trump sent in the Feds in all came to a halt ! The adults had entrred the room ! Since then we were forced to close our business due to the weight of Bidennomics on our bottom line.
    Do you really want 4 more years of Socialism ?
    Do you really want to support and elect people who support socialist? Simple questions. Rght ?

    24
    3
    1. Evers called and got the Feds, not Trump. Facts are facts…. no matter what orange fatty claims.

      All he did was roam around afterward looking at the mess, then went and gave Dumbhouse hugs for being an idiot child.

      5
      7
      1. Evers commands the Wisconsin National Guard dummy, they are not Feds. He got shamed into it by Trump.
        You are right about one thing, Trump came and looked at the democraps mess, and then gave the City millions to rebuild. Why? Because this is America and he wants to build it up not tear it down like Kammy and Timmy and Barry and Big Mike.

        11
      2. The Wisconsin National Guard answers to the governor of Wisconsin. The governor of Wisconsin gave a limp arrested BS request for assistance way too late, and with no specific mission other than try and get within a hundred miles of Kenosha and do something to make you look busy. A lot of good people in the National guard, including wisconsin’s, but they need a governor who has the balls to call them in immediately and charge their leaders with a clear goal and timeline. Eva’s only knows how to raise money for the UW and the teachers union

      1. How did Trump screw up Covid? No one knew anything about Covid…at least he tried to do something. Biden closed the country down…that worked out well

    1. “Where was our Mayor?”….Oh gosh if a person had a dollar everytime that question was asked in Kenosha….At which point it would be great to have a list of Dumbest things Kenosha Mayors have ever done list…..

      My entry for #1…
      Jess Jackson appeared at a rally outside the Chrysler Corp. Tuesday where Mayor Dorff, who is white, made his remarks. ‘This country needs a spear chucker” …

      1
  8. “we need some prosecutors who actually lock those people up and put them behind bars. It’s common sense”

    So then I assume he supports sending Trump and his 34 felonies to prison?

    7
    5
  9. Love how the narrative that “Trump saved Kenosha” is still going four years later. He didn’t do shit here as expected. And the Evers story is wrong that he didn’t send in National Guard but keep doing you.

    7
    14
    1. John Antaramian sat in a corner cupping his sack while the city burned. Typical for a DemocRAT. The Kenoshans who contribute to vote for DemocRATS have lost their minds.

      14
      6
  10. Do the police who are not on duty during this activity have to use vacation to attend? Like Pete Deates for example?

    1
    1
      1. Well. Had I said hey I need the day off to go pander an elected official and boost my already overinflated ego I’d certainly have to use vacation. My gut tells me we, the taxpayers, are on the hook for this one.

        If only they would have done motorcycle tricks for JD also! Or maybe shown him some of the still boarded up windows? Did they give him any souvenirs? Maybe a Kenosha hat trick shirt?

      2. So the middle of the day is not during his work hours? You’re telling me a guy who’s been in the machine that long and is president of the union works off shifts? PUH LEEEEZ

        They’re all crooked. Not sure how we are supposed to trust any of them. Either side. Yet so many people throw themselves at them for being selfless public servants. All of them only serve themselves.

      1. Dumbest fucking comment here.
        I’m embarrassed for you.
        Get out of your mom’s basement, turn off msnbc and read a book.

  11. So did everyone have their “JD Vance Jizz Cups”?

    Disheartening that the police and sheriff are endorsing these thugs.

    7
    10
  12. How did Trump save Kenosha? Give us money…nope. Manpower…nope. All lies once again. All that press conference showed is that Kenosha County has weak leadership. Time for Kerkman and Zoerner to go. They are useless…Trump will save us.

    6
    9
    1. You dumbass mother fucker! Go have gay sex and vote for killing babies and also pay attention to what’s really going on not what CNN tells you ya fuck!

      6
      5
        1. What are the mother’s pronouns tho? Are you even allowed to say “mother”? I’m very triggered and offended by your statement.

  13. I’ll never forget how manufacturing Unions sold themselves and their memberships out when they endorsed Slick Willy Clinton who signed NAFTA and the China Trade Deal. Since then, look at all the jobs that disappeared, Look at all the Ghost towns in the Rust Belt, the decline of cities and the increase of Lawlessness and drug use. And now under Joe Bribem, it’s worse than ever with an exponential growth of undocumented criminal aliens and much worse to come.
    TRUMP-VANCE in 2024 for HOPE in Making AMERICA Great-Safe-Prosperous Again.

    10
    3
  14. First of all…here’s the fine print. Pete Deates spoke on behalf of the Board of Directors for the KPPA. He does not speak for the entire membership of the department. There may be a dozen board members but the membership is over 100. Wouldn’t surprise me if he was on duty time. He gets a lot of free bees as the Union President.

    1
    1
      1. Honey are the lube packets sold at Bonos next to the register being used on children by the local pedophile ring that got pass after pass .

  15. A bunch of extreme right wing assholes who think women.”have their place!”.

    Your following is a literally Magot cult who can’t think for themselves but wait for trash to be sent to them via FB and X.

    Smh

    1
    8
      1. We should meet up. I heard you need some common sense Keyboard boy.
        What’s a fucking pussy.
        Let me know asap.

  16. Why does Ted Kmiec not like KCE? Why does he not consider KCE to be a reliable source for local news? He recently posted an article in the Kenosha County Scanner and claimed he was posting it there because it’s a reliable source. It didn’t take much to figure out his round about way of saying he dislikes KCE. Is it because KCE has posted true articles about him that are embarrassing to him? Is it because he’s in bed with Alan Dunski, the author of the Kenosha county scanner? Hmmmmm…..🤔….oh well…🤷‍♂️….I guess we’ll have to use common sense here…🤗….Anyway, GO TRUMP!!!! ✊️❤️🇺🇲

    5
    1
  17. “Who was it that pacified the streets of Wisconsin and ensured that those riots didn’t spiral out of control and burn down the entire city? That was President Donald J. Trump. And of course, we know the governor didn’t initially want the support from President Trump. But after a couple days of those riots, he relented and did the smart thing and allowed President Trump to send federal support.”

    And Tony, the Mussolini of face masks, didn’t do a thing until Kyle Rittenhouse started taking out the trash – THEN Tony decided that maybe some National Guardsmen would be a good idea after all.

  18. Voting blue is voting for the clear and obvious demise of our republic. The democratic candidate for President wasn’t even the elected candidate. She’s being installed, not elected, and there’s three states which have constitutions that bar her from even being placed on the ballot- WI is one of them. Why is that being ignored? How can we have a fair & legal election when the Democrat cannot even legally be placed on the ballot?
