Former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, who served during the Biden administration, is being called out for recent comments she made about Vice President JD Vance’s wife, Usha.
Psaki made the remarks on a newly released episode of the &#8220;I&#8217;ve Had It&#8221; podcast.
She said Vance is “scarier” than President Donald Trump and alluded to the idea of Usha being held hostage.

Jen Psaki says JD Vance in “scarier” than Donald Trump &amp; suggests his wife Usha wants out of their marriage.

&#8220;I think the little Manchurian candidate, JD Vance, wants to be president more than anything else,&#8221; Psaki said. &#8220;I always wonder what&#8217;s going on in the mind of his wife. Like, are you OK? Please blink four times. We&#8217;ll come over here. We&#8217;ll save you.”
Psaki continued, &#8220;And that he&#8217;s willing to do anything to get there. And your whole iteration you just outlined, I mean, he&#8217;s scarier in certain ways, in some ways. And he&#8217;s young and ambitious and agile in the sense that he&#8217;s a chameleon who makes himself whatever he thinks the audience wants to hear from him.&#8221;

The podcast episode&#8217;s description leaned into the same joke, &#8220;Usha Vance, please blink twice if you need help,&#8221; the caption said.
Social media users reacted strongly to the insinuations.
“Nothing baffles the liberal women more than a happy marriage,” one reply <a href="https://x.com/Millerita/status/1980778185244701072">said</a>. 
&#8220;Not a good person. At all,&#8221; Fox News contributor Joe Concha <a href="https://x.com/JoeConchaTV/status/1980753725237960900">said</a> of Psaki.
“For the party that supposedly champions feminism, they sure talk down to women on the other side,” another commenter <a href="https://x.com/PBlasphememes/status/1980753856519659836">observed</a>.
“MSNBC should be ashamed to pay her salary,&#8221; Libs of TikTok posted.
“Usha is accompanying JD right now in Israel securing the Gaza Peace Deal. Absolutely disgusting comments,&#8221; conservative pundit Jack Posobiec <a href="https://x.com/JackPosobiec/status/1980751133334208880">said</a>.
White House Communications Director Steven Cheung also shared his reaction on X, writing that Psaki &#8220;must be transferring her own personal issues onto others.&#8221; 
“[Psaki] is a dumbass who has no comprehension of the truth and has to overcompensate for her lack of talent by saying untrue things,” he <a href="https://x.com/StevenCheung47/status/1980778057896997362">added</a>, before repeating a phrase she often used while serving as press secretary. “Circle back on that, moron.”
