Vice Presidential candidate JD Vance stopped by CNN over the weekend to speak with anchor Dana Bash on State of the Union about the controversies surrounding the Haitian migrants in Springfield, OH.
Vance called out Bash for being a propagandist while discussing bomb threats in Springfield.
“You’ve heard a lot of the media focusing on every possible distraction from the story in Springfield. You’ve heard them focus on these Proud Boys marches — just in this interview, Dana, the suggestion that because some psychopath is calling in a bomb threat, somehow we have to then ignore 40,000 Springfieldians who are having their lives worsened by Kamala Harris’ policies?” Vance questioned.
“I’d actually love to have this conversation right now live on-air. What is the implication when you say you calling out these problems has caused a bomb threat,” Vance continued. “You accused me of causing a bomb threat — doesn’t that mean you should shut up about the residents of Springfield? Don’t you realize you’re engaged in basic propaganda to silence the concerns of American citizens?”
Bash stressed to Vance that she was only quoting Springfield Mayor Rob Rue, who she claimed was “begging federal officials to please stop putting negative attention on his city.”
“The Springfield mayor, he’s dealing with a lot of terrible things. I certainly sympathize with a guy and we’re going to try to help him out, but he did not accuse me of inciting a bomb threat. He just didn’t,” Vance said. “And if we‘re going to take the firsthand accounts of people who are on the ground in Springfield. Why don’t you bring on some of the people on your program who say that the migrants are eating their pets?”
