The "cat lady" army is uniting against Republican vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance -- and they just got a huge boost from actress Jennifer Aniston.
The move comes after a clip from a 2021 interview resurfaced online, in which Vance makes comments about "childless" figures in the Democratic Party.
In the clip, Vance -- a then-candidate for the Ohio Senate -- criticized Vice President Kamala Harris and other Democratic figures as "childless cat ladies," saying people without children don't have a "direct stake" in America's future.
"We are effectively run in this country via the Democrats, via our corporate oligarch, by a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they've made and so they want to make the rest of the country miserable, too," Vance told Fox News' Tucker Carlson.
"It's just a basic fact," he continued. "The entire future of the Democrats is controlled by people without children. And how does it make any sense that we've turned our country over to people who don't really have a direct stake in it?"
As the clip gained traction on social media, it caught the eye of "The Morning Show" and "Friends" star, who addressed Vance on her Instagram Stories.
"I truly can't believe this is coming from a potential VP of the United States," Aniston wrote Wednesday. "All I can say is... Mr. Vance, I pray that your daughter is fortunate enough to bear children of her own one day. I hope she will not need to turn to IVF as a second option. Because you are trying to take that away from her, too."
The subject of tabloid gossip for decades, Aniston opened up in 2022 about her fertility struggles and failed experience with in-vitro fertilization, saying she "was throwing everything at it," in an attempt to birth a child. In 2016, she wrote an op-ed for Huffington Post, saying she was "fed up" with the scrutiny society puts women through and "this notion that women are somehow incomplete, unsuccessful, or unhappy if they're not married with children."
Vance, who has not commented on Aniston's remarks, was among Republicans who voted to block legislation that would protect access to IVF. He also previously said he supported a national ban on abortions after 15 weeks, though he indicated that he supports Trump's position on leaving the issue for each state to decide.
