    WATCH: JD Vance Goes on The View and Skewers Lying Leftist Hosts Directly to Their Faces

    Vice President JD Vance appeared on “The View” for an interview with the woke co-hosts, and the result was hilarity, as they went absolutely berserk and tried to attack him as he brilliantly and entertainingly demolished their claims point by point to their faces, making them look ridiculous and exposing them as the liars they are.

    At one point during the interview, for instance, Sunny Hostin tried to connect President Trump to Jeffrey Epstein and make it appear as if Trump was guilty on that count, saying, “Okay. Mr. Vice President, according to a new report from the New York Times, you were the leading voice, behind the scenes to release the Epstein files. And we applaud you for that. And you warned top officials, including top DOJ officials at strategy meetings taking place inside the Situation Room. We understand that there were tapes of those meetings that this was a huge problem for the base. The report says you even floated having Tucker Carlson interview Ghislaine Maxwell to clear the president’s name. But you were rebuffed by your people. Why?”

    Firing back, VP Vance noted, “Well, I’d say, first of all, don’t believe everything that you read in any newspaper, whether it’s a right leaning paper or a left wing paper, because as you guys know well, there are things that are true, things that are false, and things that are totally missing context. Here’s what I’ll say. So number one, I am frankly kind of a conspiracy theory on the Epstein stuff.”

    He continued, “And that story says that that’s one of the things that’s true is that some people called me conspiracy theory on the Epstein stuff, and I love Susie, but absolutely, she thinks I’m a conspiracy theorist on the Epstein stuff, because I think that it’s crazy that you had this guy who was clearly a sex predator, who was hanging out with a lot of very wealthy and powerful people like that really bothered me and I wanted to have full transparency.”

    Then, noting that the Trump Administration has delivered the transparency on the matter that he wanted, VP Vance said, “What I disagree with is the idea that the White House wasn’t committed to full transparency, to remember, like I was inside the room when some of these decisions were made. The Epstein files transparency Act, the one that the president signed, the one that led to all these files, that we’re seeing the emails.”

    Concluding that point, he noted how the whole question was operating on the premise of a lie, saying, By the way, again, sorry, I do have to defend my boss. I know you guys don’t always appreciate this, but, you know, one of the things you see in the emails is that Jeffrey Epstein hated Donald Trump and that Donald Trump literally reported Jeffrey Epstein to the police. That’s one of the things that came out of these files.”

    At another point, co-host Ana Navarro tried attacking President Trump, JD Vance, and the administration as a whole by claiming that there was no reason for the military operation that targeted Maduro and that he wasn’t releasing criminals so they could migrate to the US, an outright lie. The lying host claimed, “There is no evidence that Maduro was releasing people from insane asylums or jails. This was made up.”

    Vance didn’t pull any punches with his reply to her lies. Firing back directly, immediately, and to her face, JD Vance noted that the exact opposite of what she claimed is true, telling her, “Ana, we know that there were people who were released from prisons who were encouraged to come into the United States.”

    Watch that here:

    And, at still another point, Whoopi Goldberg tried going on the attack against VP Vance and the Administration, insisting that they were attacking “folks of color”. She snapped, “What did black people do to this administration to make you stigmatize folks of color?!”

    Firing back, VP Vance noted that the administration is fixing the crime problem for everybody, saying, “Look at Washington, DC, one of the most democratic and one of the blackest—by share of population—cities, has seen a radical decrease in violent crime and sexual assault and murders.We have tried to take the crime issue seriously in part because we believe everybody, whether you are black or white or rich or poor, deserves to live in a safe neighborhood.”
