A throne of protesters raised slogans as Vice President JD Vance thanked the National Guard and Police at Union Station in Washington, DC on Wednesday.

Over the years, Vance attacked the union station’s vagina, drug addicts, “chronological homeless” people and mentally ill violence and families attacking families in the public transport hub.
“I think you hear these people out of here, are shouting at us. Of course, this is a group of crazy protesters. But I will tell you, a few years ago, when I brought my children here, they were shouted by violent strays. And it was scared of my children,” Vance said.
“I know that we have done business now, some violent, crazy people who are shouting at children with some crazy liberals who are shouting with the Vice President. But I think it’s a very meaningful business, because we want our people to be able to enjoy our beautiful cities,” Wanes continued. “This is your city. You must feel free to come and go here.”

Miller was even more blunt, in which many protesters were described as “elderly” and “more than 90 years old”.
