Obama Accuses JD Vance Of Promoting âBlood And Soilâ Politics
Former President Barack Obama rarely mentions Vice President JD Vance by name, but that changed this week with one of his sharpest public attacks since Vance took office.
The comments immediately fueled speculation that Democrats are beginning to focus more attention on the vice president as Republicans look ahead to the post-Trump era.
Speaking Thursday during a conversation with author Malcolm Gladwell, Obama accused Vance of promoting what he described as a âblood and soilâ vision of America, despite being married to Usha Vance, the daughter of Indian immigrants.
Obama made the remarks while discussing the Reconstruction era and arguing that many of the same debates over citizenship, voting rights and national identity continue today.
âWe have a politics now that at least one of our major parties has been captured by politics that is not that subtle about suggesting that âWe the peopleâ means a certain kind of people,â Obama said.
âWhen you have the vice president, current vice president, making a speech that is basically a blood and soil version of âWe the people,â that it matters who your parents were and how long theyâve been here despite him being married to a daughter of an immigrant himself.â
The phrase âblood and soilâ is historically associated with Nazi Germany and white nationalist ideology.
Obama went on to argue that debates over who belongs in America remain central to the nationâs politics.
âThat echoes, then, ideas about who can be a citizen, who belongs, who gets to make decisions,â he said.
Gladwell followed by accusing Vance of hypocrisy, arguing that the vice president was making what he called a nativist argument despite his own familyâs immigrant background.
Obama agreed.
âThat is progress,â Obama said.
âListen, hypocrisy is progress. It is, because it means that you feel guilty enough to either lie to yourself or others.â
Fox News Digital reported that it reached out to Vanceâs office for comment.
Obama did not identify the specific speech he was criticizing, but Vanceâs most recent nationally televised remarks came during Independence Day celebrations marking Americaâs 250th birthday.
In that speech, Vance encouraged Americans to reject what he called a âtwo-dimensional viewâ of the country focused only on its historical failures.
âSo what Iâd ask you to do, my fellow Americans, on our 250th birthday, is to reject the two-dimensional view of your fellow citizens and reject the two-dimensional view of your country,â Vance said.
âReject the view of your nation that sees only its sins, but not its grace and its greatness.â
He also emphasized that Americaâs accomplishments were achieved by âa common people working towards a common future.â
Obama has generally avoided making Vance a regular target since the vice president took office.
One notable exception came during the 2024 presidential campaign when then-Vice President Kamala Harris selected Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate.
Without naming Vance directly, Obama contrasted Harrisâ choice with the Republican ticket.
âWhen a presidential candidate chooses a running mate, it says a lot about who they are and what kind of president theyâll be,â Obama said at the time, Fox News reported.
Political observers have increasingly discussed Vance as a potential frontrunner for the 2028 Republican presidential nomination, though he has not announced any plans to run.
Against that backdrop, Obamaâs unusually direct criticism is likely to fuel speculation that some Democrats are beginning to sharpen their message against a politician they view as a likely future standard-bearer for the Republican Party. While no Democratic leaders have publicly described their strategy in those terms, prominent figures often begin drawing contrasts with potential future rivals well before a presidential campaign officially begins.
Whether that proves to be the case remains to be seen, but Obamaâs remarks marked one of his most pointed critiques of Vance to date and ensured the vice president once again found himself at the center of the national political conversation.
Trump Issues Statement Regarding Health of Mitch McConnell
Weeks after former GOP Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell was hospitalized for a reportedly serious heart condition, there has been much speculation about his current condition.
Rumors are also swirling about whether he can complete his term, which ends in January.
Initially, reports said that McConnell suffered a âcardiac arrestâ and was administered CPR â a health condition that is normally fatal, even for victims much younger than McConnell, who is 84 and has an extensive history of health problems.
But later, in one of the few public updates on the Kentucky Republicanâs condition, his staff only said that he was receiving âexcellent care.â
However, others who should know more about McConnellâs condition donât. That includes the president of the United States.
Libby Dean, the White House correspondent for NewsNation, tweeted on Wednesday: âPresident Trump says he has âno ideaâ how Sen. Mitch McConnell is doing and says he hasnât spoken with the Kentucky Republican since McConnellâs hospitalization.â
Now, the governor of the Bluegrass State has grown concerned enough that he has reached out to the senator to inquire about his health.
âAs Governor, I request that you fully update Kentuckians regarding the current status of your health,â Gov. Andy Beshear,a Democrat who is seen as a potential 2028 presidential contender, wrote in a letter to McConnell on Wednesday.
âAs public officeholders, we have made a commitment to our constituents to do our best to represent them and to always be transparent,â Beshearâs letter continued.
âI believe this requires clear communication about oneâs ability to serve,â he added.
Several top Republicans were asked about McConnellâs condition on Tuesday, and their responses were not reassuring.
Utah Republican Sen. Mike Lee has said that even members of Congress are in the dark about McConnellâs current condition.
Speculation has surrounded the health of the 84-year-old McConnell since the Kentucky senator was found unconscious and required CPR at his home in Washington, D.C., weeks ago.
McConnellâs staff has provided no significant update on his condition since he was hospitalized June 14.
The secrecy has fueled speculation that there is an effort to keep the full extent of the Republicanâs condition from the public and has raised questions about whether he will be able to return to office.
On Monday night, MAGA social media user Mila Joy wondered why other senators havenât spoken out about McConnellâs condition.
âBecause they are ALL in on it together. Thatâs why,â Joy posted to her 571,000 X followers.
In reply, Sen. Lee posted: âMany of us arenât speaking about Mitch McConnellâs condition because we know nothing about his condition.â
But Leeâs assessment contradicts earlier comments from Senate Majority Leader John Thune after McConnell was first hospitalized.
Thune said he had spoken to the 84-year-old and that he âsounded good.â
âHe wants to be back, but Iâll defer to his staff on when,â Thune said on June 15.
Popular conservative activist Laura Loomer claimed recently that sources told her that McConnell is in a âvegetative state,â dismissing Thuneâs version of events.
Things with McConnell have gotten worse by the day.
Since the reported incident, McConnellâs office has provided scant details on the former Senate GOP leaderâs health condition, except to say that he allegedly âappreciates the outpouring of support heâs receiving while he continues his recovery in the hospital.â
His office last week also said the 84-year-old senator âcontinues to improve, and is working closely with his staff on Kentucky and Senate matters while the Senate is out of session.â
