notice how no one who actually likes charlie kirk quotes anything he’s ever said
In his closing remarks while hosting Charlie Kirk's show for the White House, Vance says "the most important truth Charlie told was" — and then recites Apostles' Creed.
Vance then spends several minutes railing against the left in a speech that, uh, I think is likely gonna get some attention.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

I gotta say I find a lot of AI discourse around higher ed very confusing. "if ChatGPT can write your essays is college even worth it?" did people think math teachers were assigning problem sets because *they* couldn't figure out the answers?

THIS JUST HAPPENED: Brad Lander walked through the fire, got burned, and came back with a fucking gasoline can.
ICE arrested him — now he’s escorting migrants right past them, again. Most politicians wouldn’t show up. He showed out.

An American citizen and Los Angeles native, @seiucalifornia @seiuusww President David Huerta was injured and detained when ICE terrorized a working neighborhood. We demand his immediate release!
Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing.
ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him.

Inappropriate books for kids? In the Library of Congress? You have to be so fucking stupid or think so lowly of your audience to say this shit with a straight face. Not sure which is worse.
Reporter: The president fired the Librarian of Congress. Why?
Leavitt: There were quite concerning things she had done at the Library of Congress in the pursuit of DEI and putting inappropriate books in the library for children.

Mr. Ceesay is a 63-year old man thrown into ICE detention with no warning in February after 14 years of check-ins — where he had a heart attack soon after.
Judge Vilardo uses his case to emphasize WHY due process matters, even if deportation is the outcome. It's worth reading this whole thing.

Since the Trump admin continues to claim Mr. Abrego Garcia is a gang member, I thought I'd take the time to put together a timeline, based on all the documents filed in court, which lays out all the "evidence" the government has ever offered.
As you'll find out, there's very little "there" there!

As the administration and the Supreme Court have demonstrated, the law is not a moral instrument. And we cannot afford to treat it as such in an era that necessitates widespread resistance.

Over 650 known cases so far, and most have nothing to do with pro-Palestinian advocacy. The admin seems to be engaged in a breakneck effort to kick out every foreign student who has had even the most minor interaction with the police possible, including for TRAFFIC CITATIONS and JAYWALKING tickets.
The State Department didn’t reveal the rationale for having these visas rescinded.
