Alyssa Farrah Griffin unleashed a brutal mockery of Vice President JD Vance, calling him out for his staggering confession during a recent podcast appearance.
In a nearly three-hour episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, released on July 16, Vance, 41, veered off-topic from discussing the war against Iran to the notorious Jeffrey Epstein, a name that still sends shockwaves through political circles.
On the same day, during a broadcast of The View, Griffin speculated that President Donald Trump, 80, must be furious about Epstein's name being dragged into the conversation. This came as Acting U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche faced tough questions on Capitol Hill regarding the Epstein Files.
Vance admitted during the podcast, “People want to say that we mishandled the Epstein release. Guilty. We did mishandle it, especially the communication of it.”
Rogan pressed him further, asking, “What do you think the administration should have done?”
Vance responded, “I think we should have dropped everything at the beginning. Obviously, it takes a little bit of time to review the stuff, to find the stuff, and to redact things — we have victims and so forth. But we should have just done it as quickly as possible.”
Griffin pointed out the absurdity of Vance’s position, stating, “JD Vance is absolutely right there, but I’ve never seen a Vice President so undermine the Attorney General pick while he’s literally testifying on Capitol Hill.”
She concluded with a sharp jab: “The president must be mad today.”
Epstein was found dead in his cell on August 19, 2019, ruled a suicide. His cell was littered with nooses and materials for making them.
Vance stumbled again during the podcast when confronted with a vile insult from UFC fighter Josh Hokit, who claimed that former First Lady Michelle Obama was a man.
As Rogan brought up this moment while discussing a wrestling clip, he grilled Vance on his response.
“And you put it to the side of your hip, and you can break it that way. But it’s just bad technique,” Rogan said.
Vance agreed and added, “No offense, Josh.”
“I didn’t realize that,” Vance interjected. “I just could not believe that dude held out for like 30 seconds.”
Rogan then asked Vance which statement was “more shocking” — Hokit’s claim about Michelle Obama or something else he had said.
After a hearty laugh, Vance quipped back, “Uh, definitely the arm bar part.”
After stalling for a moment to formulate an answer, he finally responded, “I work in politics. People say crazy stuff all the time. Well, he says that every fight. Does he?”
