JD Vance Breaks Down The Latest On The Trump Administration’s Crackdown On Left-Wing Violence

Vice President JD Vance told Salem Radio Network host Scott Jennings on Tuesday that the Trump administration was looking into the “entire network” of organizations that support left-wing violence.

President Donald Trump declared Antifa a domestic terrorist organization in a Sept. 17 post on Truth Social, a week after Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk was assassinated during an event at Utah Valley University. Vance told Jennings that the administration would not just stop at those who threw bricks at United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents or who attacked conservatives.

“It’s not just the people who commit the violence, Scott, I mean, look for every person who throws a brick at an ice agent or takes a shot at a conservative commentator, there’s an entire network behind it,” Vance told Jennings. “Who brought the brick? Who paid for it? Who are the networks, the violence that actually support this stuff, that ferment this stuff? How do people get radicalized, if not for the really crazy rhetoric we see coming from some corners of the far left?”

“You know, Scott, even after Charlie was shot there were people who are celebrating, who said that he deserved it,” Vance continued. “All of that is part of a network of left-wing violence. It’s not just the person who pulls the trigger, it’s all the people who support them and make it possible for them to get radicalized in the first place.”
