JD On The World Stage
April 7, 2026
Digby's Hullabaloo
Vance on Tuesday said that “elements within the Ukrainian intelligence services” were trying “to put their thumb on the scale” of U.S. and Hungarian elections, without providing evidence. He also claimed the EU is interfering on behalf of the opposition. And yet he is the Vice President of the United States openly backing one candidate in a foreign election.
Trump called in to the rally where JD was speaking to push for Orban’s campaign as well. It was as embarrassing as you might imagine. Who’s putting their thumb on the scale? The weirdest aspect of this is that Russia is now simultaneously allied with both the Iranian Ayatollah and the American tyrant, even as they fight each other. WTF???
