It is frankly embarrassing that a sitting U.S. Vice President is unaware of one of the most elementary facts of World War II. Nazi Germany did not negotiate an end to World War II. The war in Europe ended with Germany’s unconditional surrender after total military defeat and the collapse of the regime in May 1945.
JD Vance: If you go back to WW2 or every major conflict in human history, they all ended with some kind of negotiation.
Community note
World War II ended with unconditional surrenders by Germany on May 8, 1945, and Japan on September 2, 1945, rather than negotiation. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconditi… archives.gov/milestone-docu… nationalww2museum.org/war/topics/end…

It's a reminder that the law has no moral force on its own. The fact that something is legal doesn't make it moral, and the fact that something is illegal doesn't make it immoral. There is a higher law to which we must hold ourselves and our leaders.
Evil is the right word for this; taking people who are safe in the United States, who have proven to a judge they would be persecuted in their home country, and dumping them in a random country in the middle of a civil war. Is it legal? Sadly, probably yes. Is it evil? Also yes.

It's hard to fathom how deeply evil this is, and that we have people running our country who get sick pleasure from sending women fleeing violence in Iran to an African country in the middle of a brutal civil war. nytimes.com/2026/06/11/world…

Trump to NBC: “First of all, I didn’t guarantee no war.” And: “So when you say I promised – I didn’t promise anything. I don’t like these endless wars. This is not an endless war.” Reality: Trump promised in two of his highest-profile 2024 addresses not to have any wars at all, and he also made that promise in a bunch of other forums. Some examples: June 2024 social media post: The election is “a choice between STRENGTH or WEAKNESS, COMPETENCE or INCOMPETENCE, peace and prosperity or war and no war.” July 2024 Republican National Convention acceptance address: “With our victory in November, the years of war, weakness, and chaos will be over. I don’t have wars.” August 2024 Pennsylvania rally: “Under Trump, we will have no more wars, no more disruptions, and we will have prosperity and peace for all.” August 2024 North Carolina rally: Approvingly claimed Viktor Orban had said, “Make sure that Trump gets re-elected president and you're not going to have any more wars,” then added himself, “No more wars. No more disruptions. We will have prosperity and we will have peace.” August 2024 Adin Ross interview: Boasted that he had no wars during his first term, then said, “And we won't have wars again.” October 2024 Wisconsin rally: Did one of his numerous renditions of the Orban story: “Viktor Orban said, ‘If Trump comes back, you won't have any wars. You won't have any wars.’ And he's about as tough as they get, and he said it loud and clear and he said why. But you won't have any wars.” November 2024 Election Night victory address: “I'm not going to start a war, I'm going to stop wars.” That is in addition to the many times he struck similar themes without the explicit promise of having no wars period if elected again – for example, vowing to stop “endless” wars or prevent “World War III,” denouncing “warmongers,” boasting of having had “no wars” in his first term, or saying we don’t “need” wars.

The defamation suit against John Oliver centered on a 2024 segment about Iowa's privatized Medicaid program. The specific claim: that Oliver had "feigned outrage" at an Iowa healthcare manager for "ratings and profits." What the healthcare manager actually said, in his own testimony at an actual hearing, about a patient with cerebral palsy who could not clean himself: "People have bowel movements every day where they don't completely clean themselves, and we don't fuss too much. People are allowed to be dirty. I would allow him to be dirty for a couple of days." Oliver said he thought it had to be taken out of context. His team obtained the full hearing transcript to verify. It was not taken out of context. He then said what he thought about it, in the terms he chose, on television. Judge Abrams dismissed the suit. In her opinion she wrote that "the trauma and loss of human dignity that befalls a man with cerebral palsy who has trouble cleaning himself and is left for days in his own fecal matter is the same, regardless of whether or not he wears a diaper" - disposing of the plaintiff's technical distinction between the two patients in the segment. The plaintiff argued Oliver feigned outrage. The judge found the outrage was about a documented, verified, on-the-record statement by the plaintiff himself. This is what accountability journalism looks like when it works. The segment was accurate. The response was proportional. The lawsuit was a SLAPP - Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation, designed to make speaking up expensive enough that people stop doing it. The court said no. Oliver's record remains perfect. The patient's dignity remains the point.
