'Dystopia scary': Senator joins alarmed internet over apparent J.D. Vance leaked audio

The internet was abuzz Thursday night over new audio — shared on social media by a Kamala Harris promoting account — in which Republican vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance appears to say he'd be in favor of a "federal response" to prevent women from crossing state lines to obtain abortions.

In the audio, a voice that sounds exactly like Vance floats a scenario.

"Let's say Roe vs. Wade is overruled. Ohio bans abortion in you know 2022, let's say 2024, and every day, George Soros sends a 747 to Columbus to load up disproportionately Black women to go have abortions in California. And of course, the left will celebrate this as a victory for diversity. Uh, that's kind of creepy, right?"

Later in the clip, the voice adds: "If that happens, do you need some federal response to prevent it from happening? Because it's really creepy. And you know I'm pretty sympathetic to that actually."

Raw Story couldn't immediately confirm the authenticity of the audio.

The account that shared the audio called it a "stunning leak," and slammed the Ohio senator for calling for a "federal response to stop women from traveling from red states to blue states to receive reproductive healthcare."

The internet wasted no time slamming Vance over the remark — including Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut, who called the audio "dystopia scary."

"It's not enough for them to tell women when they can have children or what health care they can get. Now they want to control where women can travel," he wrote on X.

"I think we’re gonna need a clarification for 'disproportionally black women,'" wrote @Folkmusings_.

"He's racist and misogynistic, just like every other Republican," replied @TrickyViking2.

"Project 2025 = Project Control," wrote @ThisWillHold.

"Not a stretch that women will be separated and tested for pregnancy before being allowed to board an international flight or cross the border to Canada and Mexico," said @MumOf2RatBags.

"Could the GOP not find a single non hardcore misogynist to be Trump's running mate? Not even one?" asked @forbestonow.
