Awww Wittle Baby Vance

Today is a return of Petty Crocker.

News has been bleak for the past year or at least since the last election and at times we may have to laugh to keep from crying.

On that note…insert JD (Just Dumb) Vance and his recent kayaking trip.

H2-Oh My God! JD Vance and the Kayak Crew

In a move that’s equal parts practical and painfully absurd, the U.S. Secret Service—err, make that the Army Corps of Engineers—managed to spur a modest uptick in the Little Miami River’s water levels so Vice President JD Vance’s 41st birthday family kayaking trip wouldn’t be ruined by unfortunate low-water conditions.

Think about that again. The Vice President of the United States asked the Army Corps of Engineers to fix the water so he could go splash splash.

The Vance team said it was to make da wawa safer…but according to pretty much everyone involved the real agenda wasn’t “safe navigation,” it was “ideal kayaking conditions.”

For those unaware of what they do, the website for the Army Corps of Engineers states that they deliver engineering solutions, provide public engineering services to strengthen national security, energize the economy, and reduce risks from disasters.

So the team that built the PANAMA CANAL

Or the Washington Monument.

Or Restored the Great Lakes.

And built dams around the country..

Took time out of their important roles to work with the Secret Service so Vance and his people could have a kayak day on the river.

And something really annoying about it all… IT WAS LARGELY IGNORED.

NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT HOW DUMB THIS IS

While Vance paddled through taxpayer-funded aqueducts, families trying to do a final vacation before school starts back couldn’t go to national parks thanks to budget cuts at the National Park Service. Make it make sense.

Remember when it was a big deal that Kamala Harris, who is a known cook, spent $500 dollars on cookware—including a $375 pot? This led the news for two weeks, saying it was a bad look with a downturn in the economy.

Another stupid story that lasted for a week was when she was spotted wearing regular headphones instead of bluetooth AirPods. This was in the news for a WEEK. And two weeks on Faux.

I know I post Jemele Hill a LOT but that is because she is amazing and pretty much always spot on. On another note listen to her podcast SPOLITICS.

But what she said is accurate. JD Vance, who disappears for months only to sporadically pops up like a groundhog to remind us we have 3 more years of stupid, is allowed to just not exist until he does something dumb. On the other hand, VP Harris was consistently both said to be not doing anything and leading the downfall of the country.

Crazy work.

For people who pretend to not see color and also hold a Ray Charles eye to double standards, this is a real problem that deserves more attention.

A few weeks ago, a devastating flood killed kids in Texas. You know who would be helpful in preventing future disasters like that?

Too bad they are busy making the water more fun for JD.
