Vice President JD Vance Heckled at Union Station in Washington, D.C.
Vice President JD Vance faced a heated encounter at Union Station in Washington, D.C., during a visit with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller. A group of local demonstrators, opposing the presence of National Guard troops, expressed their criticism towards VP Vance, labelling him as "crazy" and "communist."
The heckling incident took place after VP Vance and his entourage finished their visit to the National Guard. One of the protesters shouted, "Go f*** a couch, JD Vance," a crude internet meme based on a passage in Vance's 2016 memoir Hillbilly Elegy. The incident was captured on video and quickly went viral on social media.
In response, VP Vance labelled the protestors as "crazy" and "communist." He also claimed that he and his family were screamed at by vagrants during a previous visit to Union Station. The heckling occurred in the context of a broader political context, with no further details provided.
VP Vance spoke with a small group of reporters at Union Station, highlighting the potential for the station to be a pleasant place if politicians prioritized public safety.
