Vice President JD Vance lashed out at political activist Nick Fuentes over the weekend for derogatory comments he made about his wife, Usha Vance.
“Let me be clear. Anyone who attacks my wife, whether their name is Jen Psaki or Nick Fuentes, can eat s---," Vance said in an interview published by the online magazine UnHerd. “That’s my official policy as vice president of the United States.”
Fuentes − who the Anti-Defamation League describes as "a white supremacist" whose "antisemitic commentary largely focuses on themes of Jewish power and Holocaust denial" − used an ethnic slur to describe Usha Vance, an Indian American from a Hindu family, and referred to JD Vance as a "race traitor" on one of his livestreams.
USA TODAY has reached out to Vance and Fuentes for comment.
