Another tirade against childless people has surfaced from JD Vance’s archives. This time, an audio recording from 2021 shows Vance making rude remarks about childless teachers, including American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten.
“So many leaders of the left, and I hate to get so personal about this, but they are people without children who are trying to brainwash the minds of our children,” Vance said“Randi Weingarten, the head of the most powerful teachers union in the country, does not have a single child.”
Speaking at a 2021 Center for Christian Virtue leadership forum, Vance added that if Weingarten “wants to brainwash or destroy the psyches of children, then she should have some of it herself and leave ours the hell alone.”

Weingarten has a family of her own. Her wife is a stepmother to two children, but that has not stopped other conservatives from Senator Tom Cotton And Representative Marjorie Taylor Greenefrom criticising the union leader using the same argument.
Weingarten, who spoke at the Democratic National Convention last week and whose union supports Vice President Kamala Harris, responded to the rude remarks on X. “Disgusting! JD Vance’s comments are sad and offensive to millions of modern families and school teachers, including Catholic nuns, none of whom should be held accountable for their family choices.” she said.
