"Yeah, of course there's going to be more violence, Stevens said, before adding we should find out if a grand jury will charge him with murder. This is not unique, [ICE agents] do not have immunity as JD Vance tries to pretend, Stevens said. It just goes to sort of a sickness at the core of the Republican Party. Why does JD Vance go out there? Why does JD Vance go out there and defend Nazis?"
"Just think about it, you're sitting around your office and you hear your boss say You know, there are a bunch of Republicans out there [that are] pro-Nazi I'm gonna defend them! Like really? Why does he do that? Because he knows that the way you advance in the Republican Party the way the party is now is who can be the most transgressive."
Stuart Stevens criticized JD Vance for defending individuals labeled as Nazis and for defending an ICE officer involved in the Renee Good shooting, framing those defenses as political strategy rather than principled exemption from law. Stevens argued that Vance believes defending transgressive actors helps him advance within the Republican Party and compete against figures like Marco Rubio for a future nomination. Stevens described this pattern as indicative of a broader sickness at the party's core while also acknowledging that most law enforcement officers follow the law and deserve respect.
