Vance Faces Backlash For Fashion Critic Deportation Joke
JD Vance suggested on social media Monday that he is OK with the idea of deporting a menswear expert who has skewered the vice president's fashion sense.
Derek Guy writes about men's fashion for various outlets and has a popular account on X where he often criticizes the fashion choices of public figures, including right-wing politicians.
In March, Guy suggested that the vice president's pants are too slim, which causes them to ride up his legs when he sits.
i spoke to a bespoke tailor about this and he confirm: jd vance's pants are too slim, hence why they ride up on him like this https://t.co/dZmbrvxbV7

Although Guy keeps much of his identity private, he wrote a deeply personal X post on Sunday about his family fleeing the Vietnam War, calling the Trump administration's immigration policy 'inhumane.' He also shared that his mother brought him from Canada to the U.S. as a baby without legal documentation so they could reunite with his father.
Part of his X post mentioned the following:
I'm still unsure whether we technically broke an immigration law. The border between Canada and the United States was pretty porous (as it is today, for the most part).
But either way, since I came here without legal documentation, I eventually fell into the category of being an undocumented immigrant.
Yet, I've been in the United States since I was a baby. My identity and roots are very much based in this country, no different from anyone else.
Guy's post pointed out that the vast majority of immigrants ― undocumented or not ― are not 'MS-13 members' but 'are all like your neighbors.'
I debated whether to share my story on here, but I guess I will.
I think there's an idea out there that millions of violent criminals are pouring across the border, carrying machetes and drugs, looking to harm Americans. Certainly, while some people fall into that category, the…

However, his points were lost on some...
X user @growing_daniel saw the opportunity for Vance to get revenge on Guy for teasing the vice president's socks and pants, and seemed to suggest he should deport the menswear expert. 'JD Vance I know you're reading this and you have the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever,' he tweeted.

The vice president responded a short time later with a meme of Jack Nicholson from the 2003 film Anger Management, nodding vigorously in agreement.

Guy then responded to the vice president with some hilarious snark. 'i think i can outrun you in these clothes,' he wrote, posting photographic evidence of Vance's constricting pants and shirts.

Elon Musk Took A $113 Billion Hit Over Trump's DOGE Mission: Calls It 'Worth It'
A fan page of Vice President JD Vance asked Americans on social media whether they would thank Elon Musk after the Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) CEO reportedly lost $113 billion while leading government efficiency efforts. Musk responded Tuesday with a simple 'Worth it' on X. What Happened: The fanpage wrote: 'Elon Musk lost 25% of his fortune, approximately $113 billion, while leading efforts to streamline the U.S. government. Are you willing to give Elon Musk a heartfelt 'thank you'? A. Hell yes B. No.' Bloomberg and Forbes data confirm Musk's net worth dropped approximately $113-121 billion during his 2025 Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) role. Tesla's stock price suffered as investors questioned Musk's divided attention between his companies and government work. Trending: Maker of the $60,000 foldable home has 3 factory buildings, 600+ houses built, and big plans to solve housing — The wealth decline stems from multiple factors beyond Musk's political involvement. Market competition and potential Trump administration tariffs have pressured Tesla's valuation. Tesla stock represents Musk's primary wealth source, making the company's performance critical to his net worth. Why It Matters: The exchange comes amid escalating tensions between President Donald Trump and Musk. Trump has privately called Musk a 'big-time drug addict' in conversations with allies, according to The Washington Post. The feud intensified after Musk criticized Trump's budget legislation and suggested impeachment, while Trump threatened to cancel federal contracts with Musk's companies. The dispute has implications for Musk's SpaceX and Tesla operations, particularly regarding federal contracts. Trump withdrew NASA administrator nominee Jared Isaacman, Musk's preferred candidate, further straining relations between the billionaire and the administration. Read Next: Are you rich?

RFK Jr.'s newest CDC vaccine panel includes critics of COVID shots, lockdowns
The Brief U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has replaced the government's vaccine advisory panel with eight new appointees. The new members include vocal critics of COVID-19 vaccines and pandemic lockdowns, such as Dr. Robert Malone and Dr. Martin Kulldorff. Public health groups have raised concerns that Kennedy's changes could undermine long-standing vaccination policies. NEW YORK - U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has named eight new vaccine policy advisers to replace the panel that he abruptly dismissed earlier this week. His selections include a scientist who researched mRNA vaccine technology and transformed into a conservative darling for his criticisms of COVID-19 vaccines, and a leading critic of pandemic-era lockdowns. RELATED: RFK Jr. ousts entire CDC vaccine panel Kennedy made the announcement in a social media post on Wednesday. The backstory Kennedy's decision to "retire" the previous 17-member panel was widely decried by doctors' groups and public health organizations, who feared the advisers would be replaced by a group aligned with Kennedy's desire to reassess — and possibly end — longstanding vaccination recommendations. Dig deeper The new appointees to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices include Dr. Robert Malone, the former mRNA researcher who emerged as a close adviser to Kennedy during the measles outbreak. Malone, who runs a wellness institute and a popular blog, rose to popularity during the COVID-19 pandemic as he relayed conspiracy theories around the outbreak and the vaccines that followed. He has appeared on podcasts and other conservative news outlets where he's promoted unproven and alternative treatments for measles and COVID-19. He has claimed that millions of Americans were hypnotized into taking the COVID-19 shots. He's even suggested that those vaccines cause a form of AIDS. He's downplayed deaths related to one of the largest measles outbreaks in the U.S. in years. Other appointees include Dr. Martin Kulldorff, a biostatistician and epidemiologist who was a co-author of the Great Barrington Declaration, an October 2020 letter maintaining that pandemic shutdowns were causing irreparable harm. Dr. Cody Meissner, a former ACIP member, also was named. Big picture view The committee, created in 1964, makes recommendations to the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. CDC directors almost always approve those recommendations on how Food and Drug Administration-cleared vaccines should be used. The CDC's final recommendations are widely heeded by doctors and determine the scope of vaccination programs. The Source The Associated Press contributed to this report. The information in this story comes from a social media announcement made by U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Wednesday, in which he introduced eight new members to the federal vaccine advisory panel. This story was reported from Los Angeles.

Leavitt slams ‘stupid question' about Trump's threat to protesters
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt slammed a question from a reporter on Wednesday when asked if President Trump would support having 'peaceful' protesters at the Saturday military parade in Washington, D.C. 'So if there were peaceful protests on Saturday for the military parade, President Trump would allow that,' NOTUS's Jasmine Wright asked on Wednesday during the White House press briefing. 'Of course the president supports peaceful protests. What a stupid question,' Leavitt said in response. Moments prior, Wright had mentioned Trump's warning to potential protesters who were planning to be at the massive Army parade in the nation's capital, saying they would be met with 'very big force.' 'If there's any protester wants to come out, they will be met with very big force. For those people that want to protest, they will be met with very big force. And I haven't even heard about a protest,' Trump said on Tuesday. Wright asked Leavitt if she could 'clarify what kind of protest President Trump does support or find acceptable.' The 'president absolutely supports peaceful protests. He supports the First Amendment. He supports the right of Americans to make their voices heard,' the White House press secretary said. 'He does not support violence of any kind. He does not support assaulting law enforcement officers who are simply trying to do their jobs,' Leavitt added, referring to the ongoing protests in Los Angeles. The protests in the City of Angels began after Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids at several businesses. The demonstrations spread around federal buildings where those detained are believed to be held. In response, Trump deployed National Guard troops and the Marines to help halt the protests, decisions that were opposed by Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass (D) and California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D). 'It's very clear for the president what he supports and what he does not. Unfortunately for Democrats, that line has not been clear and they've allowed this unrest and this violence to continue, and the president has had to step in,' Leavitt said on Wednesday.
