On October 7, Incumbent Vice President Mike Pence will take on Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Kamala Harris at the VP Debates.

In Harris, Pence will face an historic opponent. The former Attorney General of and now Senator for California, Harris is the first woman of color nominated to the VP position and would be the first to hold the office if she and Joe Biden win the November election.


And on top of all that, she's well-known as a fierce debater.

Remember when she eviscerated Brett Kavanagh during his hearing before the Senate?

Giphy

Brett remembers.

In preparation for the night, Pence has of course been partaking in mock debates to anticipate possible attacks and iron out speaking points.

And according to a report by The Washington Post, Pence has been using former Republican Governor of Wisconsin Scott Walker as the Harris stand-in.

When asked about his decision to simulate Harris, a woman of color, Walker kept his comments brief:

"All I can say is that I worked with him four years ago and was happy to help. That's it."

And while Walker and Pence do have a longstanding relationship stemming back to when the two men served as controversial Governors in Indiana and Wisconsin, Pence's choice of fill in for Harris has several people scratching their heads.

People on Twitter had all kinds of hot takes about Pence's approach to debate prep.


Others were excited by the news.

They clearly felt—and delighted in the fact—that Walker would be an inadequate prep partner and leave Pence totally unprepared for the big night on October 7.




The news is just one more reason to tune in on October 7 for a historic VP Debate night.

Trump Just Made An Awkward Joke Mocking JD Vance's Weight Loss—And Nobody's Laughing

Speaking at a White House Easter lunch, President Donald Trump made an uncomfortable joke about Vice President JD Vance's weight loss, taking an opportunity to mock him from the podium.

Vance said in August 2024 that he had lost nearly 30 pounds since his 2022 Ohio Senate campaign, attributing the change to diet and exercise rather than the use of weight-loss medications. His weight loss attracted attention this week after he appeared on conservative influencer Benny Johnson's podcast.

JB Pritzker Just Epically Trolled Pam Bondi With The Perfect Fake LinkedIn Profile

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker mocked former Attorney General Pam Bondi following President Donald Trump's dismissal of her by posting a fake LinkedIn profile with a clever Epstein files twist.

Trump himself is widely believed to be in the Epstein files—said to contain detailed lists of some of the late financier, pedophile, and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein's most high-profile clients and enablers—and has rejected calls by his followers to release them, admonishing critics of Bondi, who recently concluded no such list exists, despite previously claiming the exact opposite.

Massachusetts Democratic Representative Seth Moulton made a fitting observation about President Donald Trump's mind after Trump gave a 20-minute address to the nation about his war in Iran on Wednesday evening.

Trump claimed “core strategic objectives are nearing completion” in the Iran war and vowed to strike Iran "extremely hard" over the next two to three weeks. He said that he would finish the job "very fast," without setting any timeline for ending the war. He pledged to "bring them [Iranians] back to the Stone Ages, where they belong.”

The Haudenosaunee Confederacy's Great Law of Peace offered a blueprint for the United States Constitution and the structure of the federal government including the three independent branches offering checks and balances, ideally.
