This is JD Vance’s climate change policy.
“Vance has championed fracking and railed against clean energy since joining the Senate in 2023, after a campaign partly bankrolled by fossil fuel companies, write Heather Richards, Mike Soraghan and Brian Dabbs. Now, the Ohio Republican is a vice presidential candidate, joining Donald Trump in his calls to “drill, baby, drill.”
Vance changed his tune on climate change. Oil cash flowed. - POLITICO:

Walz on partial birth actions allegation by Vance: that's not true.
"Just mind your own business!" Drink!
Walz points out that Vance's allegation was fact checked at the Presidential debate. Vance is trying to reply-guy Walz.
Ugh I didn't think I could hate Vance more.
Commercial break.
Impression so far: Walz is pretty solid but is a little defensive at times.
Vance is straight up unlikeable. He lies effortlessly. Hurts to watch.

The city of Tel Aviv, considered a commercial hub and the largest urban center of the Israeli occupation, was rocked by multiple attacks by different fronts on Tuesday, October 1. The attacks were carried out by Hezbollah, Iran, Yemen’s Ansar Allah, and Palestinian resistance fighters, and could mark the first spark of a regional war that the Netanyahu-led Israeli government has been provoking for the last several months.

Vance: You said "trust the experts" but we trusted the experts with offshoring workers to developing economies, and they were wrong about that. Donald Trump had the courage to go against it.
Walz: If you want billionaires to get tax cuts ... Kamala Harris has a record of… t.co/eE1VtBRZj8

"The West led by the United States is completely out of touch. The whole world wants the genocide against the Palestinians to end now."

We got our first mic mute of the vice presidential debate.
Impressively, it took nearly 30 minutes to actually happen. Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) tried to respond to additional context moderator Margaret Brennan gave on Haitian immigrants’ legal status in Springfield, Ohio, accusing her of breaking the rules about fact-checking. “Thank you for describing the legal process,” Brennan told Vance before moving on after producers cut the candidates’ volume.

in reply to Tony S. voted for Democrats • • •"Vance’s climate and energy views took a 180 once he was running for the Senate. The oil and gas industry spent more than $283,000 on Vance’s 2022 campaign — more than they gave to all but 18 other members of Congress, according to the campaign finance watchdog OpenSecrets."
"In the years since, Vance has said that he doesn’t think there is a climate crisis and questioned how much human activity contributes to global warming." -Politico
