Psaki appeared on a podcast where she made personal remarks questioning the state of the Vance marriage, implying Usha needed help and casting JD Vance as a &#8220;little <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/6-laughably-bad-liberal-propaganda-films\/\" title=\"6 Laughably Bad Liberal Propaganda Films\">manchurian candidate<\/a>&#8221; focused on political ambition.Washington Examiner senior writer Joe Concha condemned Psaki&#8217;s comments as slanderous and unfounded,highlighting that there is no evidence of any issues in the Vances&#8217; reportedly happy marriage. White House spokesperson Steven Cheung also reacted negatively too Psaki&#8217;s remarks, calling her statements untrue and a sign of personal issues. The vice president&#8217;s office did not issue a response. The controversy follows earlier backlash against the podcast host Jennifer Welch for suggesting JD Vance should be more vocal against racism due to his wife&#8217;s Indian heritage and their mixed-race children.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Jen Psaki deserves &lsquo;all the criticism&rsquo; for Usha Vance comment: Joe Concha<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2373889\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p><em>Washington Examiner<\/em> Senior Writer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/author\/joe-concha\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Joe Concha<\/a> condemned comments made by MSNBC host <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3332670\/steven-cheung-jen-psaki-clean-up-after-yourself\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Jen Psaki<\/a> about second lady <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/3853203\/jennifer-welch-slams-regressed-jd-vance-for-dismissing-racist-chat\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Usha Vance<\/a> as &ldquo;slander.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Psaki appeared on Tuesday on the podcast <em>I&rsquo;ve Had It<\/em>, hosted by Jennifer Welch and Angie Sullivan.

It&rsquo;s all foam and no beer,&rdquo; Concha said. &ldquo;And again, Usha Vance, JD Vance, there is zero reporting on any problems with the marriage.
