Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are having a rally today in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. JD Vance is talking there at a similar time, because that’s how dogs who have nothing better to do but follow other dogs around and sniff their butts act.
So JD Vance might end up in your livestream, since it’s a local news livestream.

I really, really don't think Republicans realised exactly how angry people would get over the ending of abortion.
Vance thinks that attacking Walz military record is gonna be a hit. One of Vance's lines of attack has been disparaging Walz's military service, and he's being called out for it by conservative former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Illinois) as well as progressive ex-MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan.
The Minnesota governor and former congressman spent 24 years in the U.S. Army National Guard before retiring from the military as a command sergeant major. In a January 7 post on X, formerly Twitter, Vance wrote, "You know what really bothers me about Tim Walz? When the US Marine Corps asked me to go to Iraq to serve my country, I did it. When Tim Walz was asked by his country to go to Iraq, he dropped out of the Army and allowed his unit to go without him. I think that's shameful."
In response, the 46-year-old Kinzinger — who served as a lieutenant colonel in the Air National Guard — tweeted, "Ok. JD served honorably, but he wasn't kicking down doors. He was in public affairs. Which again, is fine and honorable. Tim, after he was eligible for retirement, retired. People do that. If it was a real problem he would have been 'stop lossed' and prevented from retiring."
