This election, as in the past few, is not about the candidate; it’s about the movement that seeks to consume our freedoms, destroy our Constitution, and dictate our godless futures.
Vice President JD Vance made the perfect argument for voting Republican despite their failings and differences of opinion. We aren’t voting for a personality. That’s a distraction. We are voting for a more traditional USA that is open to change, but not the change being forced upon us. Do we want a country run by El-Sayeds and AOCs?
If Democrats, who embrace the radical left, lose enough elections, there is hope that Democrats will move more toward the center. Voting them in does the opposite.
JD Vance just made the perfect argument of why Americans need to vote Republican in the midterms:
“Don’t give power to the people who caused the problems that we’re fixing.”
Democrats want to import a foreign population to replace Americans, hire foreigners and raise taxes.…

The Answer That Lit Up the Internet
Jewish people, including conservative Jews, are upset with JD Vance saying the following this morning. “…just as we cannot let our Middle Eastern foreign policy be subservient to the state of Israel.” It was taken out of context and was part of an answer to a reporter’s question.
He was trying to make everyone happy, and made no one happy.
Jewish people say it’s a well-known trope. To me it’s not, but I’m not Jewish. Many people are reading into his comment or reinterpreting it in unfair ways. Some are paranoid because of his inexplicable relationship with the new Tucker Carlson. Others think it wasn’t strong enough in claiming America First.
Some say what got him into trouble was his pairing it with NATO.
This is the dialogue:
Vance was asked an open-ended question about America being “too influenced” by Israel. He answered that Israel is an “important partner” on “military technology” and “intelligence sharing,” and that the US does not always agree with Israel. He then gave the standard Trump argument: every relationship should be judged by whether the policy serves American interests. Policies that sounded good for decades may need reassessment. NATO was his example. It is what Trump would say, and no President has done more for Israel in my opinion.
Vance said:
“[Y]es, obviously a lot of important relationships, a lot of important partnerships in NATO, but that doesn’t mean that we’re going to completely make our European foreign policy subservient to NATO in the same way that we cannot let our Middle Eastern foreign policy be subservient to the state of Israel. We’re going to work with people when we work with them. We’re going to disagree when we disagree, and we’re going to pursue America’s interests. That’s the only way to have a rational foreign policy.”
Vance tried and failed to placate both sides.
Jason asked about the rise in antisemitism on the right and the crowd that thinks U.S. policy is run out of Jerusalem. Vance ignored the first half of the question. He did not condemn it. He did not even name it. He jumped straight…

Here is one example of an exaggeration being spread around:
“Vance returns to his anti-Semitic straw man argument that America must no longer be “subservient to Israel”. And lauds Trump for being the president most willing to reject the anti-American influence of Netanyahu. Like the Europeans, he loves Israeli technology but hates Israel.”
I don’t see how you get that out of what he said. She was reading into it.
One far-right poster wrote:
J.D. Vance’s BS line that the US “cannot let our Middle Eastern foreign policy be subservient to the State of Israel” is a blatant dog whistle to & talking point of the Groypers/woke right & the left to whom @JDVance constantly grovels. The US has never been subservient to Israel, but sadly Israel is subservient to the US. Anti-semites are the ones who claim otherwise & Vance is staunchly in that sect
She is doing the Nancy Pelosi dog whistle dance instead of taking his comments at face value.
I have questions about Vance, but we are two years out from the election. I like a lot of things he says. He needs to be vetted, but not by reading into his comments. He was trying to ride in the middle lane, which politicians have to do in this divided country.
Sentinel is pro-Israel and pro-Jewish, but this doesn’t seem to prove at all that Vance is antisemitic. Some say Vance hasn’t separated himself from the Groyper movement. He definitely has to be vetted.
