Extremist figures and members of the Make America Great Again movement have criticized the wife of Ohio Senator JD Vance after former President Donald Trump named him as his running mate in the 2024 election.
....
In the wake of Trump's vice presidential announcement on Monday, numerous conservative and far-right figures have taken to social media to launch racist attacks against Usha Vance because of her Indian heritage and the assumption that her influence on her husband's political career means the Republican Party will be softer on immigration.
"I'm sure this guy is going to be great on immigration," Jaden McNeil, a far-right activist and the founder of America First Students, wrote on X, formerly Twitter, while sharing a picture of the Vances with their newborn baby.
Nick Fuentes, a white supremacist who visited Trump at his Mar-a-Lago home along with rapper Kanye West in November 2022, suggested that Vance would not be a "defender of white identity" because of his wife's Indian heritage.
"Who is this guy, really?" Fuentes said on his podcast. "Do we really expect that the guy who has an Indian wife and named their kid Vivek is going to support white identity?"
Vincent James Foxx, who was present at the January 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, wrote on X: "JD Vance gets tapped as VP and immediately there's a Hindu prayer at the RNC. Next we'll see Sen. Mike Lee and JD Vance team up to convince Trump to let in 10 million Indian immigrants. Green cards on diplomas!"
Conservative commentator Stew Peters wrote, "There is an obvious Indian coup taking place in the US right before our eyes," while sharing a screenshot of an article about the Vances' three children.

“No, I checked. She is Hindu.”
Yes. What I said. She worships many gods.
mairdie obviously understands why we elect a president. He/she must be competent enough to protect and help prosper every American. We definitely do not want a religious extremist of any faith, because those people would try to force their beliefs on others. It is wonderful that president Trump is tolerant of all good religions. His choice of VP who is married to a Hindu woman is an excellent example.
Like praying to the Wizard Of Oz. None are real.

Antifa’s Unlikely Support for JD Vance’s Indian Wife: Bridging Unexpected Alliances
In a surprising turn of events, the antifascist activist movement known as Antifa has come out in support of Usha Vance, the Indian-American wife of Republican Senator JD Vance. This unexpected alliance highlights the complexity and nuance in contemporary political landscapes, where common values can sometimes transcend ideological divides. Usha Vance, a successful attorney and partner at a prestigious law firm, has been subjected to racial and xenophobic attacks, which have drawn widespread condemnation from various quarters, including Antifa.
Antifa’s support for Usha Vance underscores their commitment to combating racism and xenophobia, irrespective of political affiliations. While JD Vance, the author of "Hillbilly Elegy," aligns with conservative values and has often been at odds with progressive movements, the personal attacks on his wife have been seen as a broader societal issue that transcends partisan politics. Antifa’s stance highlights their broader mission to protect individuals from racial discrimination and bigotry, showcasing that their activism extends beyond political disagreements to fundamental human rights.
This alliance also sheds light on the importance of solidarity in the face of discrimination. By supporting Usha Vance, Antifa emphasizes the need for unity against common adversaries like racism and xenophobia. This support could pave the way for more nuanced dialogues between seemingly opposing groups, fostering a more inclusive and empathetic political environment. It serves as a reminder that, despite ideological differences, there are shared values that can bring together diverse groups to fight against injustice and promote a more equitable society.
Jaw dropping isn't it.
Though Melania has been criticized for keeping Barron as "mummy's boy," how much more ridiculous it is that Doc Jill does even self-debasing "motherly things" for Xiao, including his diaper changes.
That is, The Donald doesn't need Melania to hold his hand or swab his rump while on the campaign trail.
“Many Republicans have welcomed Usha Vance, the Indian American wife of vice-presidential nominee JD Vance, as a symbol of generational change and growing diversity in the party ranks.
Usha, 38, a corporate lawyer who used to be a registered Democrat, is the daughter of Indian immigrants and a practicing Hindu.”
Usha Vance was a registered democrat until JD ran for office.
Reagan was a Democrat before he became a Republican.
So were a lot of Freepers.
Of course, which is what it is, but I was answering this claim:
“She’s an accomplished woman, and deservedly so since she’s not
a democrat.”
There is the Jewish ethnicity and Jewish religions.
Yes, a plural. Before 70 AD there were multiple sects of Judaism: Sadduccees, Pharisees, Essenes, Jesus movement Jews and Samaritans. Sadduccees rejected the books of the prophets and the Oral Torah, the Pharisees had their Oral Torah.
Christianity is essentially a sect of 2nd temple Judaism.
After the temple was destroyed in 70 AD, onely the Samaritans and the Jesus movement Jews survived. The Sadduccees were touted to the temple so it was the end of the world for them.
It was also that way for the Pharisees but they created a new sect, created by Rabbi Yohannan bin Zakkai and that is rabbinical Judaism with the temple and priests and animal sacrifices replaced by synagogues and rabbis and todah.
Reads like it was written by Harris. The other Indian involved in the race.
Re: 75 - good grief.
“So you think anyone who doesn’t have Mayflower roots dilutes American foundations???!?
“So no Germans, Irish, Poles, Jews, Italians etc etc?”
Wow, just wow. Reading comprehension issues? What I said was specifically related to people in power who would/could dilute the CHRISTIAN foundation of how this country was founded.
Nothing to do with country of origin. Hubby is German. Ex is Norwegian. I was the only Caucasian in my group of six “running buddies” where we used to live.
IT HAS TO DO WITH GOD!!!!! (or godS in this case).
Basically, I can EXPLAIN it to you, but I can’t make you UNDERSTAND. Somebody who cares about the history of America and its Founders would get it.
Hopefully Vance is not a vegan too.
Oh look - POS forum troll is trolling the forum again. How management hasn’t shown you the door is beyond comprehension.
Or - yet another reason why FR is failing.
What are you babbling about?
That’s possible, but I don’t give Newsweek any credibility.
They’re liars with an agenda. And they hate us, not just guys like Stew.
So, even if he’s an idiot, I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt. Newsweek doesn’t deserve the same. They’re a known quantity.
To the left, supporting Donald Trump is evidence of racism. You can’t have rational conversations with people who accept this as a premise.
