In an ironic twist that sends shivers down the spine of political correctness, Vice President J.D. Vance finds himself at the receiving end of establishment media’s latest political circus act. Just as the media exploited family disagreements to chip away at President Trump’s reputation, they have now targeted Vance, revealing an unsettling pattern of obsession with anyone associated with Trump but ironically claiming to stand for diversity and inclusion.
The entertainment began when CBS News decided it was top-notch journalism to swoop in on Vance’s mother-in-law, Lakshmi Chilukuri, a California college provost, and her fervent commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). Chilukuri’s initiatives at the University of California San Diego, including a pilot class about race, were highlighted as a means to weaken the Vance family’s resolve against the woke agenda. Clearly, a loving mother-in-law advocating for inclusion on her campus is more newsworthy than the substantive policies enacted by Vance.
In a not-so-shocking plot twist, Vance responded to CBS’s flimsy attempt to create division within his family. He made it clear that just like every other American family navigating the turbulent waters of political discourse, he loves his mother-in-law and is prepared to agree to disagree. Describing the media’s antics as “slimy,” Vance dismantled the notion that their differing views would derail familial bonds. After all, that’s what Thanksgiving dinners are for—embracing the awkwardness while getting through one more serving of mashed potatoes.
Moreover, Vance pointed out the absurdity of the media’s relentless pursuit of discord. Instead of focusing on the actual issues at hand, CBS News is more interested in turning a familial disagreement into a sensational narrative. The irony is thick, as their reporting on DEI falls perfectly in line with their own divisive agenda, striving to sow discord where it doesn’t naturally exist. The real treasure in this controversy? Vance’s assertion that the story existed solely to attack him and his familial ties to Trump, which only serves to highlight the media’s priorities over truth.

Chilukuri’s silence in the face of this insatiable media frenzy is commendable, signifying a far more productive approach to family politics than the media’s manufactured drama. Unlike the tabloids that thrive on conflict, the Vance family seems to put family over fleeting political skirmishes, proving once again that in the good old U.S. of A, differences in opinion among relatives are as common as apple pie and baseball games.
At the end of the day, the Vance saga serves as a reminder that families everywhere are filled with differing political opinions, and that’s not only normal, but it can be downright healthy. While Vance focuses on the future with pride in his administration’s achievements, the media can keep its nose out of family matters—for most families, the goal is unity, not division. In a landscape riddled with division, the Vances stand as a beacon of familial solidarity amidst the chaos of politically charged narratives.
