Jamelle Bouie criticized JD Vance for not apologizing to the family of 37-year-old nurse Alex Pretti, who was fatally shot by ICE agents in Minneapolis, with Bouie calling Vance "a wicked man" who knows he is being wicked.
Bouie made the comments in a series of Bluesky posts, where he also stated that he "can't imagine a parent who wouldn't sell little JD for percocet if they knew he would turn out like this," highlighting Vance's controversial actions and addiction to power.
Vance had previously accused Pretti of "ill intent" when he arrived at the scene of a protest before agents attacked and killed him, sparking widespread criticism, including from Bouie, who pointed out the irony of Vance's own struggles with addiction, despite his mother being sober for 10 years.
