A Michigan man by the name of JD Vance has been convicted of threatening to kill Vice President JD Vance.
67-year-old James Donald Vance Jr. is also convicted of threatening President Donald Trump and one of Trump's children. I'll assume, since there's a sort of name game going on here, that Vance, the Michigan man, had threatened Donald Trump Jr. (though I have no idea).
According to a release from the Department of Justice, Vance went by the alias ‘Diaperjdv' on Bluesky and made specific threats against four different people. In one message, the DOJ said he did not care whether he was shot by the Secret Service or would spend the rest of his life in prison for his actions.
Vance pleaded guilty to two felony offenses including threatening to kill or injure the President and Vice President and interstate threatening communications.
JD Vance, the Michigan man, has been sentenced to two years in federal prison. This is the second time in a month that someone from western Michigan has been sentenced for threatening to kill the president.
