One would think that a former US senator, who under our Constitution, or what’s left of it, now presides over the US Senate would actually know the names of other US Senators, not the couchfucker, JD Vance. More than likely, the couchfucker knows Senator Padilla’s name but decided to act the racist fool for the cameras and the MAGAt KKKult.
Vance traveled to California and actually held a press event that included hand picked ‘jernalists’ from far right shitholes; he did not allow anyone from local media outlets to attend his bigly event.
When a correspondent for the far-right Daily Wire, who was selected by the White House to be the official pool reporter traveling with Vance, asked about a series of Democrats who have been placed in handcuffs recently by federal officers, Vance attempted to joke about California senator Alex Padilla who was forcibly detained by the FBI in the same location last week. Vance, however, called him “Jose Padilla”, using the name of an American citizen who was accused of planning to detonate a radioactive dirty bomb on behalf of al-Qaida in 2002.

“I was hoping Jose Padilla would be here to ask a question,” Vance said. “I guess he decided not to show up because there wasn’t a theater. And that’s all it is.”
“Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass, by treating the city as a sanctuary city, have basically said that this is open season on federal law enforcement,” Vance said after he toured federal immigration enforcement offices.
“What happened here was a tragedy,” he added. “You had people who were doing the simple job of enforcing the law and they had rioters egged on by the governor and the mayor, making it harder for them to do their job. That is disgraceful. And it is why the president has responded so forcefully.”
Welp, this didn’t happen:
