A New York Times columnist wrote on social media this week that J.D. Vance’s mother should have sold him for drugs during his childhood.

The comments were made by Jamelle Bouie, a columnist for The New York Times, in a series of posts on the left-wing social media platform Bluesky on Wednesday.

Bouie’s remarks followed a recent interview Vance gave to the Daily Mail, in which the vice president declined to apologize to the family of Minnesota shooting victim Alex Pretti.
