Rand Paul Calls Out JD 'I Don't Give A Sh*t' Vance For Bombing Stance

The senator also questioned if the vice president had ever read "To Kill A Mockingbird."
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) called out Vice President JD Vance for defending the U.S. military bombing of a suspected drug vessel from Venezuela that killed 11 people.
On Saturday, Vance referenced the bombing, writing on social media, “Killing cartel members who poison our fellow citizens is the highest and best use of our military.” When someone challenged that, calling the bombing a “war crime,” Vance wrote, “I don’t give a shit what you call it,” which elicited immediate backlash.
Rand mocked Vance’s response on social media and questioned if the vice president had ever read Harper Lee’s “To Kill A Mockingbird,” seemingly pointing out the novel’s themes about prejudice.
“JD ‘I don’t give a shit’ Vance says killing people he accuses of a crime is the ‘highest and best use of the military,’ Paul wrote Saturday on social media. “Did he ever read To Kill a Mockingbird? Did he ever wonder what might happen if the accused were immediately executed without trial or representation?? What a despicable and thoughtless sentiment it is to glorify killing someone without a trial.”
Neither Paul’s office nor the White House immediately responded to a request for comment.
