It didn’t garner a lot of attention (relatively speaking), but in my opinion JD Vance’s “It’s disrespectful for you to try to litigate this in front of the American media” is every bit as damning as “I was promised there would be no fact-checking.”

Vance KNOWS that he and Trump are at a significant disadvantage if their interrogation of Zelenskyy is conducted in full view of the public. But in Vance’s view, it’s all the media’s fault. And it has always been.

To them, the media is far more of an enemy than Putin ever was.

Turns out TASS walked into the Oval Office unauthorized during the media event with Zelenskyy, Trump, Vance & whoever that half-inflated mushroom is doing the job of Sec State.

I repeat: Russian state media walked into the Oval Office and no one stopped them despite SUPPOSEDLY being unauthorized to enter.

The BBC wouldn’t have done that 12 years ago and the Associated Press CANNOT do that today. But TASS can and does.

They’re going to have a hard time doing that study if they ban the practice.
