Vice President JD Vance late Wednesday cast a tie-breaking vote to kill a bipartisan effort to rebuke President Donald Trump’s tariffs in the Senate.

Vice President JD Vance traveled to Capitol Hill late Wednesday to cast a tie-breaking vote in the Senate that killed a bipartisan effort to rebuke President Donald Trump’s trade policy.

Earlier in the evening, the Senate rejected the resolution that would have effectively blocked Trump’s global tariffs by revoking the emergency order the president is using to enact them. Two senators who were set to vote for the resolution, Republican Mitch McConnell and Democrat Sheldon Whitehouse, were absent, allowing the resolution to fail 49-49.

          I mean yeah? That’s already a concern without Kennedy making a list if neurodivergent folks and checking it twice.

          Anyways, what will you do if someone comes to take your shit? Like anyone, no one in particular. People have guns here.
