JD Vance criticizes NY Times reader for 'whining' about elderly neighbor's prayers: 'Stop being a weirdo'

Vice President-elect JD Vance weighed in after a New York Times reader complained about her neighbor's insistence on sending prayers in-person and via text.

The reader revealed that their neighbor, described as a "sweet friend" and "a caring person," is "very religious" and frequently offers prayers. Nikolas Lanum is an associate editor for Fox News Digital.

"She prays for me and says it in person, texts and emails for even the most minor of situations. I’ve told her my view of religion and that she doesn’t need to pray for me. She said she has to, otherwise she’s not following the Bible. I’m trying to ignore this, but it’s really bothering me that she can’t respect my wishes," the reader continued.
