It did not take long for attention to turn to Usha Vance, who was most recently a corporate litigator at a firm which represents clients in the entertainment, technology, energy and health care industries, according to her LinkedIn profile.

She resigned from that position shortly after JD Vance was announced as Trump's running mate, according to multiple reports.

However, some of her previous roles quickly started gaining some scrutiny, notably her clerkships for Brett Kavanaugh before he was a appointed to the Supreme Court and the current Chief Justice John Roberts. Both men make up part of the highest court's 6-3 conservative majority.


Not excusing JD's behavior and recalling how HAPPY Trump looked when Erica leaned into him, full body contact, at that memorial for Charlie. Both men have questionable response to the very friendly widow, but Usha seems to lack some judgement about who she picks to be around.
