1. Here's the hypocritical shit he said about Ukraine - talk about "every accusation is a confession"

A Hungarian journalist now plays up Orbán’s attack lines on Ukraine, alleging all sorts of Ukrainian involvement in the US campaign and other attacks on conservatives.

JD Vance in response says that the US is “certainly aware that there are elements within the Ukrainian intelligence services that try to put their thumb on the scale of American elections, [or] on Hungarian elections, this is just what they do.”

Amazingly, he also condemns “people in the Ukrainian system who were campaigning with Democrats literally in the weeks before the presidential election,” while literally standing next to Viktor Orbán doing the very same thing in the Hungarian election.
