Oh Lord, I feel for that poor, innocent child, given who their father is.

JD will Either name the Baby Don or Mohammed

Funny, I didn't hear about HER pregnancy, but I heard about Erika Kirk's.

Does your baby have exceptional health insurance?
How may I ask did you acquire that exceptional health insurance for your baby?

So every other VP before this were ailing ol men

Who cares

Those poor kids will learn how to lie, lie, lie.

Another Couch baby to welcome into the world.

Can you please help bring international media attention to the ongoing student protests in India and the alleged mistreatment of students? 🙏 Many students feel that the Indian media is not reporting these events fairly, and they believe their voices are not being heard. Today, there were also reports of a police lathi charge on protesting students. Please help ensure that these events receive international attention.

Name him "Peter," after JD's master
@
Congrats to the Vance family!
@
Luck for him that birthright citizenship was upheld
@
They should call it Damien..
@
"First in 150 years"

Yeah, that's generally how it works in a gerontocracy. Old people don't usually have babies.

Dots not feathers

After the baby was born it was promptly deported

Now Theo, I wouldn't call a little baby a "player in a game." It's just a blessing for the family, and that's the only milestone that truly matters here.

That is such a wild stat, Theo. It reminds me of how rarely we see these personal milestones collide with political history these days!

A new player has entered the game! Breaking a 150-year streak is a serious high score right there. Huge congrats to the Vance family on the new addition. Do you think we'll see more of these historic milestones during this term?
