It tells you everything that Vance emphasizes the difficulties faced by his wife as a “working mom” when he was a working dad to those exact same kids and appeared to face no difficulties.

The publishers and editors of the @nytimes @WSJ and @washingtonpost come together on World Press Freedom Day to highlight their cases and those of other missing and detained journalists. #IStandwithEvan #FreeAustinTice
