Tim Walz Crumbles as J.D. Vance Dominates VP Debate

Walz thought he was ready for J.D. Vance—he was wrong. What started as a debate quickly turned into a one-sided beatdown.

Here’s how it all went down.

🧵 THREAD

J.D. Vance opened the debate by masterfully introducing himself with confidence, telling the American people that under a Trump administration, the American Dream would once again be attainable.

"I stand here asking to be your vice president with extraordinary gratitude for this country, for the American Dream that made it possible for me to live my dreams," he said. He then made it clear, "If we get better leadership in the White House, if we get Donald Trump back in the White House, the American Dream is going to be attainable once again."

As the debate continued, Vance flipped the script on Tim Walz when Walz attempted to blame Donald Trump for the Iranian threat.

"You yourself just said Iran is as close to a nuclear weapon today as they have ever been. And, Governor Walz, you blame Donald Trump. Who has been the vice president for the last three and a half years? And the answer is your running mate, not mine," Vance fired back.

On the topic of Hurricane Helene, Vance communicated with the American people so well that even Tim Walz nodding in agreement.

He painted a vivid picture of the disaster, saying, "I just saw today, actually, a photograph of two grandparents on a roof with a six-year-old child. And it was the last photograph ever taken of them because the roof collapsed, and those innocent people lost their lives."

Vance expressed his heartfelt sympathy and promised, "I commit that when Donald Trump is president, again, the government will put the citizens of this country first when they suffer from a disaster."

On climate change, Vance didn’t hold back, telling Walz to his face that if Kamala Harris truly cared about the issue, she would be pushing for more manufacturing and energy production in America because it’s cleaner to do so here.

"If the Democrats, particularly Kamala Harris and her leadership, really believe that climate change is serious, what they would be doing is more manufacturing and more energy production in the United States of America," Vance argued. "So clearly, Kamala Harris herself doesn't believe her own rhetoric on this."

Vance got Tim Walz’s head hanging in shame when he exposed the executive orders the Biden-Harris admin signed that upended what Trump did to keep the border safe.

“We have a historic immigration crisis because Kamala Harris started and said that she wanted to undo all of Donald Trump's border policies. 94 executive orders suspending deportations, decriminalizing illegal aliens, massively increasing the asylum fraud that exists in our system that has opened the floodgates,” Vance lamented.

“And what it's meant is that a lot of fentanyl is coming into our country. I had a mother who struggled with opioid addiction and has gotten clean. I don't want people who are struggling with addiction to be deprived of their second chance because Kamala Harris let in fentanyl into our communities at record levels. So you've got to stop the bleeding.”

At one point, Vance’s microphone was cut off by CBS News when he began refuting their fact-check on the subject of Springfield, Ohio, and Haitian immigrants.

CBS News said they had more topics to get to, but the apparent reality is that they were getting uncomfortable with Vance confronting their “fact-check” head-on.

Vance continued to deliver a sharp critique of Harris’s economic policies, pointing out the rising costs of essentials.

"If Kamala Harris has such great plans for how to address middle-class problems, then she ought to do them now," he said, emphasizing the 25% increase in food costs and the 60% increase in housing costs.

Vance then dropped a series of brutal fact-checks on Walz.

“Governor, you say trust the experts, but those same experts for 40 years said that if we shipped our manufacturing base off to China, we'd get cheaper goods. They lied about that.

“They said if we shipped our industrial base off to other countries, to Mexico and elsewhere, it would make the middle class stronger. They were wrong about that.

“They were wrong about the idea that if we made America less self-reliant, less productive in our own nation, that it would somehow make us better off. And they were wrong about it.

“And for the first time in a generation, Donald Trump had the wisdom and the courage to say to that bipartisan consensus, we're not doing it anymore. We're bringing American manufacturing back. We're unleashing American energy. We're going to make more of our own stuff.”

As the debate wore on, Vance savagely cornered Walz on his economic contradictions.

“Tim, I think you got a tough job here because you've got to play whack-a-mole. You've got to pretend that Donald Trump didn't deliver rising take-home pay, which, of course, he did. You've got to pretend that Donald Trump didn't deliver lower inflation, which, of course, he did,” Vance pointed out.

“And then you've simultaneously got to defend Kamala Harris's atrocious economic record, which has made gas, groceries, and housing unaffordable for American citizens... We can do so much better. To all of you watching, we can get back to an America that's affordable again. We just got to get back to common sense economic principles.”

Walz found himself in a tough spot when confronted about a false claim regarding his presence in Hong Kong during the Tiananmen Square massacre.

After a two-minute rant, Walz admitted that he wasn’t actually there during the tragedy, exposing a major inconsistency in his narrative.

Vance continued to dominate, shredding Walz for saying that the First Amendment doesn't protect “misinformation.”

Walz said that claim was false, but unfortunately for him, we got it on video.

As the debate neared its end, Walz awkwardly appealed to viewers who were “still up” and missed “Dancing With the Stars” to watch the debate.

Things got worse when he boasted about endorsements from figures like Dick Cheney and Taylor Swift.

Throughout the entire two minutes, Walz totally fell flat, making his closing statements a complete waste of time.

Vance, on the other hand, ended the night with a bang, delivering a stunning critique of Kamala Harris.

"She’s been the vice president for three and a half years. Day one was 1,400 days ago. And her policies have made these problems worse," Vance said.

He emphasized that the American people would not achieve their full dreams under the current broken leadership and called for a new direction.

"We need a president who has already done this once before and did it well."

China is gutting us from the inside—and we let them walk right in.

Joe Rogan’s guest just exposed how hidden backdoors in U.S. tech opened the door to something far more dangerous.

And what’s happening inside the world’s top AI labs should terrify everyone.

🧵 THREAD

📍Remember to bookmark the post above. There are some bombshells in here that you will want to remember!

Now, onto the clips...

The episode opened with a revelation that stunned even Rogan.

Jeremie Harris, founder of the AI safety firm Gladstone AI, explained how one of the worst cyberattacks in U.S. history didn’t begin in Beijing—it began with us.

“The 3G kind of protocol that was set up years ago, law enforcement agencies included back doors, intentionally,” he said.

The idea was simple: let law enforcement access communications with a warrant. But Harris pointed out the fatal flaw. Once you build a back door, others will find it.

“And well—you introduce a back door, you have adversaries like China, who are wicked good at cyber, they're going to find and exploit those back doors,” he explained.

They did exactly that. Chinese hackers used those vulnerabilities to launch Salt Typhoon, a sweeping cyberattack that infiltrated everything from communication networks to transportation systems and key infrastructure.

And for a long time, no one even noticed.

“Basically they're sitting there and they been for—some people think like maybe a year or two before it was really discovered,” Harris said.

When the scale of the breach finally came into focus, it was already too late.

“And just a couple months ago, they kind of go like, oh, cool. Like we got fucking like China all up in our shit.”

🚨 DISTURBING: I was just forced to DELETE an entire thread about a dirt-cheap drug for supposedly “violating X rules.”

Just today alone, I was locked out of my account for a grand total of 44 TIMES.

I am being punished.

Strangely, this began right after I called out “Enterprising Desert Raven” for manipulating the Community Notes system and using 16+ sock puppet accounts to target and mass note voices he doesn't like.

It appears Enterprising Desert Raven is turning those same sock puppet accounts to mass flag my posts to lock me out of my account and delete my posts in real time.

This is straight-up censorship.

Earlier this week, I was also forced to DELETE a viral thread I wrote about Charlie Kirk's appearance on Bill Maher. No rules were violated!

Now, I can no longer use my account freely. I’m often locked out of my account mid-thread or mid-post, or worse, forced to delete something I worked hard on.

X is my full-time job, and someone with the power to manipulate the platform is deliberately preventing me from doing my work.

@Safety, what is going on here? How is this allowed to happen?

https://x.com/VigilantFox/status/1915314179973505275

See my thread below exposing how Enterprising Desert Raven deliberately manipulates the Community Notes system.

In all likelihood, he controls 16 or more accounts in total. And ever since I called him out, I’ve been locked out of my account relentlessly.

https://x.com/VigilantFox/status/1915314179973505275

Resplendent Cedar Osprey (Enterprising Desert Raven) basically just admitted to mass flagging my account to lock me out for the day.

The post mentioned here that I was forced to delete was mostly informational, with two clearly-marked sponsor spots and full disclosure.

80% of the thread's posts were fully informational. But his army of sock puppet accounts got EVERY SINGLE POST taken down anyway.

EXPOSED: The Great Blood Pressure Scam

Doctors have it backwards!

High blood pressure is a SYMPTOM, not a cause of arterial damage.

There’s no evidence that aggressively lowering BP actually saves lives.

Meanwhile, BP meds have a lot of nasty side effects, including falls, kidney failure, sexual dysfunction… and even death.

Keep reading as I unpack @MidwesternDoc’s truthful insights on blood pressure and the data that shatters the narrative.

🧵 THREAD

Every day, more people are slapped with a hypertension diagnosis—the most common form of chronic disease.

But @MidwesternDoc has compiled data that obliterates the mainstream narrative—and everything we thought we knew about blood pressure.

midwesterndoctor.com/p/the-great-bl…

It turns out, 25% of hypertension diagnoses are flat-out wrong.

Bad measurements.

Wrong cuff sizes.

Stress at the doctor’s office—or “white coat hypertension.”

Minor things causing big problems. With millions of people being labeled “sick” when they’re not.

And being put on drugs they don’t need.

This is the face of the man ruining @CommunityNotes for everyone.

It's none other than the team lead himself—@_jaybaxter_.

He’s been covering up a massive scandal inside Community Notes for well over a year.

And once you hear about it, it’ll make your blood boil.

🧵 THREAD

📌 Before we dive in, bookmark this post and send it to everyone you know on the X support team.

There’s a serious problem—and nothing’s going to change until this sham is exposed across the entire platform.

Just so you know, I don’t think Jay likes me. He just BLOCKED me for raising serious concerns.

The system is being weaponized to target conservatives and critics of pharma.

And there’s one account that stands out as the worst offender.

I’ll show you exactly who that is below.

This Is War.

Tom Homan and Stephen Miller just tag-teamed a scorched earth exposé of America’s illegal alien crisis.

They’re not pulling punches—Democrats are actively trying to take this country down.

Only two choices remain: push back or get steamrolled by the radical left and their rogue judges.

And then Homan ended with a demand from Congress that could change everything.

🧵 THREAD

📌 Bookmark the post above—Homan and Miller just dismantled the open borders narrative in real time. This moment was a turning point.

Now, let’s roll the clips...

It kicked off with Tom Homan pulling back the curtain on America’s two-tiered justice system—and what he revealed was infuriating.

Hannity set the stage:

“This guy Garcia got more due process than Laken Riley, or I'll add Rachel Morin, or I'll add Jocelyn Nungaray, or I can scroll the names of other Americans that have been murdered, raped and victims of violent crime.”

“They didn't get any due process, did they?”

Homan didn’t hesitate. He zeroed in on Abrego Garcia, a deported MS-13 gang member, to make the contrast crystal clear.

“No they didn't. He got due process. He got two immigration judges, two federal judges to order him deported after a hearing. He got due process.”

He kept going, reminding viewers of who really gets left behind:

“But you're right, angel moms and dads across this country, they get no due process.”

“Just like the parents of the two that were killed by an illegal alien in California. They didn't get due process.”

Then came the gut punch:

“So they enter the country illegally, so they ignore the legal process when they come here illegally but all of a sudden they get deported, now they want to take advantage of the legal process.”

“It's upside down, but we're going to keep doing what we're doing, Sean.”

CNN’s Dana Bash just got steamrolled by MAHA on live TV.

She tried to corner Dr. Marty Makary with a jab at RFK Jr.—but he flipped the script on her fast.

It was a moment that spoke for every fed-up mom in America. And it all started with a dirty secret hiding in your pantry.

🧵THREAD

📌 Bookmark the post above—MAHA went toe-to-toe with CNN’s narrative and came out stronger. The truth is breaking through and this was a turning point.

It all started with a truth bomb. A terrifying one.

The FDA Commissioner just went on national television and exposed what’s really inside the food dyes being pumped into our snacks—and what he revealed left jaws on the floor.

CNN wasn’t ready for what Dr. Marty Makary was about to say.

When host Dana Bash asked why these petroleum-based dyes are still allowed in food and medicine, Makary didn’t hesitate.

“Well, good question Dana. I don't think we appreciated the potential risks to human health and child health when they were first introduced,” he said.

Then he dropped the line every parent should hear loud and clear:

“Yellow dye number five, for example, was noted to be a bright, vibrant yellow color as the byproduct of coal tar in the coal ash.”

Coal tar. That’s what’s been showing up in your kid’s snacks.

Makary explained how it happened:

“And then people decided to put it in fabric. And then they thought, well, we can put it in food.”

It wasn’t an accident. It was a failure—one that went unchecked for decades.

But the science is finally catching up.

“The studies have caught up with the introduction of these petroleum-based chemical food dyes, and the data doesn't look good.”

Especially when it comes to children.

“Studies have shown an association with ADHD. It also makes ultra processed food look more attractive for young kids, messing with their minds where they feel full and they want more of the food.”

Now, at long last, the FDA is taking action.

“We’ve got an epidemic of childhood chronic diseases, so we are airing on the safe side and moving to remove these from the U.S. food supply.”

They allowed coal tar byproducts—originally meant for textiles—into our food. And only now are they beginning to clean up the mess.
