“They censor us, but it doesn’t change the truth,” he said before telling a whopper of a lie about his mama in a new ad. "Joe Biden’s open border is killing Ohioans, with more illegal drugs and more Democrat voters pouring into this country.

“This issue is personal,” he added. “I nearly lost my mother to the poison coming across our border. No child should grow up an orphan. I’m J.D. Vance, and I approve this message because whatever they call us, we will put America first.”

The only problem here is that he lied. As a nurse, JD Vance’s mother stole prescribed medications from her patients, and that was not because of undocumented immigrants. Vance got the community note routine on Xitter.

    It was Rx opiates, ones she was stealing from her patients.

      Thanks for context, I could not be bothered to research anything about this guy. Glad his mom found recovery but the specifics here make it even more ridiculous how he is tying his moms substance use issues to the proverbial boogeymen south of the border.
