Vance Comments On Retracted NBC Story Day Before ICE Shooting

Vice President JD Vance didn’t just clap back — he burned the bridge and salted the earth behind him.

Speaking from North Carolina, Vance ripped the media to shreds for what he says is their ongoing campaign to demonize law enforcement — particularly Immigration and Customs Enforcement. And he didn’t mince words. According to him, if you’re still out here comparing ICE officers to Hitler’s Gestapo, you can “go straight to hell.”

Not “please stop.” Not “let’s have a respectful dialogue.”
Straight. To. Hell.

And honestly? It’s about time someone said it with their chest.

Because let’s not pretend this media narrative came out of nowhere. For years, the loudest voices on the left have been busy turning ICE into a cartoonish villain — the big bad wolf in every immigration story, the punchline to every late-night monologue, the faceless henchmen of a supposedly “authoritarian regime.” And all the while, real men and women in uniform — doing their jobs, protecting borders, enforcing laws — have been put in the crosshairs. Sometimes literally.

Vance was responding to a deadly shooting at a Texas ICE facility that had happened just hours before. You’d think that would trigger some kind of national moment of reflection — but no, the usual suspects stayed weirdly quiet. Because acknowledging that ICE agents are actually people — people with families, badges, and a legal mandate — doesn’t fit the left’s narrative.

Instead, what we get is stuff like this: NBC breathlessly reporting that ICE detained a 5-year-old autistic girl to get to her father. Except… that never happened. According to Vance, the whole story was a flat-out fabrication. And after the damage was done — after the narrative had been seeded across a thousand social media feeds — NBC sheepishly issued a correction. As if that undoes the lie. As if that doesn’t plant yet another seed of outrage in the minds of unstable people who already think law enforcement is some sort of fascist militia.
