JD Vance with tears in their eyes mak
Vance’s Chilling Remark
Senator JD Vance, once a vocal Trump critic, was caught on camera telling House Speaker Mike Johnson
that Trump’s opponents will face a “full reckoning.”
Lip-reader Jeremy Freeman confirmed Vance said, “Yes it is, a full reckoning, and long overdue,” before adding, “By the way,
I think the speech is going to be great.” Johnson replied, “The hardest thing was doing it during Biden, when his speech was a stupid campaign speech.”
Unclear Target of the Threat
While Vance didn’t specify who the “reckoning” was aimed at, it followed a tense meeting with Ukrainian President Zelensky and criticism of the UK, which he called a “random country.”
Defending Trump
Vance blamed anti-Trump rhetoric for the failed assassination attempt, saying, “That rhetoric led directly to President Trump’s attempted assassination.”
Divided Reaction to Speech
Trump supporters applauded his attack on Biden, while Democrats, holding protest signs, accused him of serving billionaires like Elon Musk.
