Vance reveals who's behind his recent weight loss in first White House press briefing since July
Vance said the diet, recommended by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., helped drive his recent weight loss during his first briefing in more than 40 days.
- On Thursday, Vice President Vance led the first White House press briefing in more than 40 days, attributing recent weight loss to a high-protein, sauerkraut-heavy diet recommended by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
- Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recruited Vice President Vance, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, and Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy to the red meat and fermented foods regimen, redirecting Vance from a planned Lent sugar fast.
- During the briefing, Vance urged the Federal Reserve to cut benchmark interest rates, citing July's 3.4% consumer price index rise as evidence that monetary easing is proper and responsible for administration economic goals.
- Regarding the Iran conflict, Vance rejected calling it a war and said the United States moved about 15 million barrels of oil through the Strait of Hormuz on Wednesday, protecting tankers from Iranian fire.
- Anticipating next week's 9/11 memorial in New York, Vance mocked the prospect of meeting Joe Biden, claiming he expects "intense intellectual conversations" while recalling national unity following the 2001 attacks.
