Showing Original Post only (View all)Oh, how f*cking PRECIOUS. Couch Effer says Saint Chucky was stolen from us, but his new baby was given. GROUP HUG! [View all]
https://www.thedailybeast.com/vance-credits-charlie-kirks-assassination-for-his-new-baby/Vance says the assassination of Charlie Kirk is the reason he and First Lady Usha Vance decided to have a fourth child.
Vance made the revelation in an excerpt from his forthcoming book that was obtained by the Wall Street Journal, in which he referred to the 31-year-old Kirk as his best friend in politics.
As my wife held Charlie Kirks widow on the first day of her terrible sorrow, Erika told Usha between sobs that she regretted having only two kids with Charlie, Vance writes.
For years, I had asked Usha to have another baby, and for years she had told me she was doneespecially now that public service had elevated us into the national spotlight. But something changed for Usha, and not long after we buried my friend, she became pregnant with our fourth child, a boy.
I dont know why God does things like this, he continued. But I am grateful to Him that there will soon be another source of joy in our lives.

I think Usha saw the extensive, on-stage embrace between JD and Erika, and then gave JD an ultimatum.

At least as a recent widow, she was wearing the appropriately colored skin-tight leather pants.

I think Vance is Thiel's sock puppet, and I also don't think Vance has ANY friends.
