Good thing that Vance is so keen to eliminate voter fraud.

JD Vance’s half-brother Cory Bowman, the GOP candidate for mayor of Cincinnati, is facing questions over where he actually lives and whether he may have committed voter fraud in his own election.

From an Evanston resident filming an arrest at Oakton/Asbury ~an hour ago:

"He was being very violent with her, I said ‘You got to stop that,’ and he said, ‘Step back or I’ll fucking shoot you.‘ I step back, and then I continue to record, at which point he turned around and pointed a gun at me.”

A pregnant woman in ICE custody in Louisiana begged for help while she was bleeding. The guards ignored her. She miscarried. And then because apparently cruelty has no expiration date they kept her locked up for two more months.
