Hillary Clinton’s comments at the 92nd Street Y’s Newmark Civic Life Series have reignited a cultural firestorm, as newly surfaced video shows the former First Lady taking a pointed swipe at the rising pro-family sentiment embraced by figures like President Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and Vice President JD Vance. Her remarks—laden with scorn for those promoting larger families and traditional values—have gone viral, sparking outrage from Americans who see her tone not only as condescending but deeply out of step with a growing national appetite for family-centric priorities.
Hillary Clinton comes out against:
– The nuclear family
– Christianity
– BabiesShe also says that we should import illegals to keep America’s population up instead of incentivizing Americans to have more children.

Clinton zeroed in on what she views as a disturbing shift in political discourse—a shift back toward an emphasis on childbearing, family structure, and faith-based ideals. But it wasn’t the policy critiques that captured attention—it was the tone. With audible disdain, Clinton painted the pro-family message as little more than a patriarchal scheme to push women “back to what they were born to do”—a statement critics say distorts and trivializes the personal convictions of millions of American families.
“What we really need from you women are more children,” she said mockingly, describing the views of Vance and Musk. “Which really means you should go back to doing what you were born to do…”
To the ears of many parents, this wasn’t political critique—it was personal derision. Millions of women across the country proudly balance motherhood and career or choose family life as their vocation. For Clinton to cast those choices as relics of a bygone, oppressive era isn’t just insulting—it’s a betrayal of the diversity of women’s lives she once claimed to champion.
Clinton’s dismissal of the traditional family, and her sneering reference to a “return to the nuclear family” and a “Christian nation,” underscores the widening chasm between elite progressives and average Americans. It’s no surprise that her comments touched a nerve—particularly among those raising large families, who increasingly feel targeted by a culture that treats them as burdens rather than blessings.
Wow. Hillary Clinton just called Republican women “Handmaidens for the patriarchy.”
Black people aren’t black if they don’t vote Democrat. Latinos are stupid. Whites are racist. Women are handmaidens. It never ends.

Her remarks on Project 2025, a policy roadmap from the Heritage Foundation, did little to help her case. Trump himself has distanced from it, yet Clinton tried to lump him into the narrative regardless. More troubling, she tied family advocacy to anti-immigration sentiment, seemingly suggesting that advocating for more children among American families was hypocritical if one also supports border security.
“It’s sort of odd,” Clinton said, “because the people who produce the most children in our country are immigrants, and they want to deport them.”
What Clinton misses—or deliberately sidesteps—is that pro-family values aren’t about exclusion. They’re about strengthening the American cultural fabric, restoring the value of motherhood and fatherhood, and giving families the tools to thrive—regardless of background.
