Everyone gets an A. They would not use those statements to investigate fairly, they would use them to screw you over.

JD Vance will address the 45th annual National Peace Officers’ Memorial Service with a keynote speech at the Capitol today. I'm pretty sure Vance will avoid the awkward subject of how MAGA seditionists tried to, you know... murder police on January 6, 2021.
