'We will raise hell': MAGA activists 'swearing vengeance on J.D. Vance' for new 'betrayal'

Donald Trump's number two has found himself to be the number one target of several faithful members of the MAGA movement, including Jan. 6 rioters. Vance told Fox News on Sunday that not all Jan. 6 defendants deserved pardons, specifically saying those who engaged in violence could potentially be excluded.

“If you protested peacefully on Jan. 6 and you’ve had [Attorney General] Merrick Garland’s Department of Justice treat you like a gang member, you should be pardoned,” the vice president-elect said. "If you committed violence on that day, obviously you shouldn’t be pardoned.” That comment struck a chord with numerous Trump supporters, including Philip Anderson, a Texas man who was arrested on felony and misdemeanor charges connected to the riot.

"Telling your own supporters that the election was stolen and then not giving them a pardon or commutation after you sent them into what you call a 'fedsurrection' and 'trap' is a betrayal," he wrote Sunday. "All of the J6 defendants must be saved. JD Vance is wrong and I hope Trump will save his own supporters."

Another Jan. 6 defendant, Samuel Fisher, (aka Brad Holiday), replied to Anderson, saying, "He better or we will raise hell for the rest of our lives." Anderson said the sentiment was shared throughout the J6 community, claiming, "Been seeing lots of this." "J6 defendants and family members are swearing vengeance on JD Vance if all of the J6 defendants are not saved. And they are right to do it," he said on X.

they've been scammed, and turn against them individually and en masse. I just hope they can avoid being duped into believing it's still all the Dems' fault.

"J6 defendants and family members are swearing vengeance on JD Vance if all of the J6 defendants are not saved. And they are right to do it,"


Because they have not come to terms with their violent nature, They have not yet learned that violence is not the solution to everything.

didn't try to pardon them the first time!
Why haven't any MAGA folks asked why he didn't try to issue some kind of blanket pardon for his insurrectionist followers before he left office?

get used to being screwed. This is only the beginning, no doubt, of their edjumacation. They will learn, if they are capable of learning, that they are just useful idiots and riff raff to the oligarchs who now own the country lock, stock and barrel. Vance is an untouchable now with the protection of the billionaire bubble, As long as he tows the line he will be so protected. Once he steps out of bounds he's toast and becomes fair game for the haters. Don't expect him to be stepping out.

Every time the MAGAs get Chump's "bad news" it's going to come from J.D. Vance.



Not that I care about Vance or his reputation. But he signed up to be the fall guy, and the shit is only starting. Chump will never deliver bad news, it's all going to be handed to Vance.

who they feel they have to go against, that is the nature of maladjusted human beings, there is no loyalty amongst them, they will turn against each other in a second, maybe that should be the Democratic party's strategy, to lure them to fight against each other...Divide and conquer?

Doesn’t give a shit about his supporters. That was just a fake promise. What trouble are they going to cause from jail, bang their tin cups on the bars and holler “ I want out, I want out!”.
