(The Center Square) – While he longs for unity among Americans, Vice President JD Vance said Monday no unity can exist as long as the “radical left” and Democrats espouse and incite violence.
Vance hosted the late Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk’s podcast on Monday saying that some Democrats and former Senate colleagues reached out to him to express condolences and called for unity. Vance, a close friend of Kirk’s, said, “I'm so thankful and I know there are so many like them all across our great country. I am desperate to wrap my arms around them as we all unite to condemn political violence and the ideas that cause it.”
He cited Psalm 1:33 from the Bible, which says, “Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity. It is like the precious ointment
