Which makes the abject gaslighting look absolutely craven and downright gross.

Hi all, We’re still here at OPM.
We have a situation where we MIGHT, and I do mean, MIGHT have four of Elon’s people blocked from the building.
Can we get press or a member of Congress down here? We’ve blocked them for two hours and they keep coming back and trying to go in.

To those asking, here's Vance's comments.
When news broke that the terrorist in Germany was a Saudi immigrant, Vance implied blame on all immigrants/Muslims.
When it came out that the attacker was an Elon Musk fan, AfD supporter, and anti-Islam, Vance defended AfD.
He's said nothing else about it.
