Abdul El-Sayed called JD Vance's biracial children less American and told Usha Vance to leave her husband.
Beverly Vance Aikins recently discussed these remarks with Tomi Lahren.
And JD Vance’s mom told the world exactly what she would do if she ever ran into Democrat socialist Abdul El-Sayed.
The Man Who Made a Career Attacking JD Vance's Kids
Abdul El-Sayed has a problem.
It's not the polls.
It's not his ties to Hasan Piker – the Twitch streamer who said America deserved 9/11.
His real problem is that every time someone hands him a microphone, he uses it to attack the Vice President's wife and children.
Back in April, El-Sayed looked into a camera and said JD Vance has "brown kids who he thinks are less American than everyone else."
Then he told Usha Vance – the Second Lady of the United States – to "get out" of her own marriage.
Then, when Vance criticized El-Sayed's stated adherence to Sharia law at an Ohio rally, El-Sayed fired back by mocking whether JD would have taken Usha "back in time to meet Papaw" – a swipe at her Indian heritage.
Three separate attacks on a man's wife and children.
This is who Michigan Democrats nominated for the United States Senate.
Beverly Aikins Had a Simple Response
Beverly Vance Aikins didn't write a press release.
She didn't consult a political strategist.
She sat down with Tomi Lahren and let it rip.
"I'd probably punch the guy if I ever seen him," she said.
Then she caught herself – "and then that would get me in trouble. So, I'll just go with the flow."
That's a woman who has seen real hardship.
Beverly Aikins battled opioid addiction for over a decade – a struggle her son JD documented in Hillbilly Elegy and that nearly destroyed their family.
In April 2025, JD hosted her at the White House to celebrate ten years of sobriety.

And she's not going to stand quietly while a Michigan socialist uses her grandchildren as political props.
She also diagnosed El-Sayed perfectly – and without a Harvard degree.
"I think they're jealous, honestly,” she said. “JD is 42 years old. He's handsome. He's the Vice President of the United States. He's got a beautiful wife, four beautiful children and jealousy is the only thing I can think of."
That's it.
El-Sayed's Real Record
While El-Sayed is busy obsessing over Usha Vance's heritage, Michigan voters might want to know who they're actually dealing with.
El-Sayed's top campaign surrogate is Hasan Piker – the streamer who declared America deserved the 9/11 attacks and has spent years defending Hamas.
When asked to disavow Piker's 9/11 comments on Meet the Press, El-Sayed dismissed the question as "cancel culture."
He received over $100,000 in contributions from people affiliated with the Council on American-Islamic Relations.
He campaigned alongside Rashida Tlaib – who showed up wearing a keffiyeh – while calling the U.S. war against Iran "genocidal."

JD Vance said it plainly at the Michigan rally: "I actually think that the people of Michigan think it's kind of weird when you talk about another guy's wife."
He then added: "Whatever you want to talk about, Abdul, keep my wife's name the hell out of your mouth, because she's way out of your league."
Vance also called El-Sayed "very, very evil" – a man who fights "for one group at the expense of others."
He's not wrong.
What This Race Is Really About
Michigan is a battleground.
This Senate seat – currently open – could decide control of the chamber.
El-Sayed knows he can't win on his record, so he's running on resentment.
He's betting that attacking the Vice President's family plays better with his base than answering for his surrogate who said America deserved 9/11 – or explaining why he called a U.S. military action "genocidal" while campaigning next to a streamer who suggested Jewish Americans would be targeted for their beliefs.
Beverly Aikins saw through it instantly.

A Michigan socialist who mocks biracial children to score political points isn't fighting for the working class.
He's fighting for the same radical left that spent years destroying the Rust Belt communities Beverly Aikins comes from.
JD Vance's mother survived opioid addiction, rebuilt her relationship with her son, and watched him become Vice President of the United States.
She's not impressed by Abdul El-Sayed.
And neither is anyone else.
