MSNBC contributor Molly Jong-Fast claimed during a Tuesday appearance that vice presidential nominee JD Vance (R-OH) only wanted to see “white kids” in the United States — but she neglected to mention the fact that Vance is the father of three biracial children.
Jong-Fast joined MSNBC host Jonathan Lemire — who made no move to qualify her statement — in responding to Vance’s now-viral comments about Americans who were “childless” by choice.

MSNBC claims JD Vance’s pro-family stance is “racist,” that he wants “more white children” in America—despite the fact that JD Vance is father to three biracial children.

“The stats are there,” Lemire began. “More and more Americans are choosing not to have kids, which again emphasizes why JD Vance’s comments about childless Americans, ‘childless cat ladies,’ could be so politically damaging.”
“Well, so what’s interesting is this is this naturalism that comes from an authoritarian playbook, right?” Jong-Fast asserted. “That there need to be more white children, right? That’s the idea, that there’s — you know — this is about great replacement theory racism, right? This is what this is, so don’t misunderstand it for him wanting more children. He wants a certain kind of, you know, racist thing.”
What neither Jong-Fast nor Lemire acknowledged was the fact that JD Vance and his wife Usha Vance — the American-born daughter of Indian immigrants — are parents to three biracial children.
“His children are biracial. This is gross,” conservative pundit Mary Katharine Ham posted in response.

Ellen Carmichael, a communications professional, added two points for consideration: “1. There should be more white children (and children of every color, because kids are awesome and our birth rate is plummeting). 2. Weird to advance a white supremacy theory by ::checks notes:: procreating non-white babies with an Indian American.”

“You know, the actual damning thing in this clip is not the nepobaby saying something stupid, but the supposedly objective @politico reporter who does not push back on the stupidity. More and more, it is clear much of the political press has picked a side,” conservative radio host Erick Erickson commented.
