Hard times for Europe and the World: ‘Sheriff Trump has arrived’. Word of his Deputy JD Vance. During the Munich Security Conference, the US Vice President launched harsh criticism against Europe, comparing European leaders to Cold War autocrats. Too bad Vance forgets that in these very days, President Trump has banned Ap journalists from entering the Oval Office and on Air Force One.

US Vice President JD Vance made scathing attacks on European allies during his speech at the Munich Security Conference, accusing them of becoming similar to authoritarian Cold War regimes. In a heated speech, Vance compared Europe’s censorship actions and management of disinformation to those practised by totalitarian regimes defeated in the global conflict.

‘Many of you in this room remember how defenders of democracy stood up to the most tyrannical forces during the Cold War,’ Vance said, pointing out how the current policies of some European leaders are a betrayal of those principles. ‘Consider who censored dissidents, who closed churches, who cancelled elections. Were they the good guys? Certainly not, and fortunately they lost. They lost because they did not respect freedom,’ he continued, questioning the value of freedom of expression in some European states today.

The vice president referred to recent incidents that he said highlight the authoritarian drift in Europe, citing the arrest of a protester in the UK for peaceful protests against an abortion clinic and the condemnation for the act of burning the Koran in Sweden as examples of intolerance. ‘These are signs of a Europe that is forgetting the true meaning of democracy,’ he added.

Vance sharply criticised European leaders for ‘threatening and bullying social media companies’ in order to censor disinformation, a concept he compared to Soviet practices. ‘They are becoming like the same regimes we fought during the Cold War,’ he declared. The attack also extended to the pressure on social media to standardise public thinking, warning against the danger of restricting alternative viewpoints: ‘Shutting the shutters on unorthodox opinions is the surest way to destroy democracy,’ Vance said.

During his speech, Vance urged not to fear alternative voices, citing the example of American democracy which, despite being under attack, managed to withstand criticism from figures such as Greta Thunberg and others. He concluded with a provocation: ‘If American democracy can survive ten years of reproaches from Greta Thunberg, you guys can survive a few months under Elon Musk’. A clear reference to the tycoon, but also a political statement highlighting the growing role of Donald Trump, referred to as the new ‘sheriff’ of world politics. ‘Donald Trump’s leadership has come to town,’ said Vance, outlining a future in which the conservative vision of the United States becomes increasingly predominant in Europe as well.

FROM WHAT PULPIT COMES THE SERMON

Too bad that Vance forgets that in these very days, President Trump has banned Ap journalists from entering the Oval Office and on Air Force One, for not calling Gulf of America, the Gulf of Mexico… Is this situation not also a child of censorship? But the sheriff evidently can do anything…. The others, no!
