US EditionVance says antisemitism isn't 'exploding' on the right
Vice President JD Vance disputes claims of rising antisemitism among young conservatives, calling such accusations slanderous and emphasizing the importance of addressing antisemitism when observed.
- On Thursday, Vice President JD Vance said he disagrees with Republicans warning of rising antisemitism, reflecting on his first year in office during a West Wing interview.
- Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, has singled out young conservatives and criticized Tucker Carlson as he amplified concerns about anti-Israel and anti-Jewish sentiment, raising the profile of the dispute inside the party in recent weeks.
- Pushing back, Vance said he calls out antisemitism when he sees it and does not observe 'some simmering antisemitism that's exploding' among young conservatives, urging the Republican Party to firmly reject racism.
- Next year's midterm elections will help answer whether those concerns reflect a broader trend, Vance said, and serve as a key waypoint as he weighs a campaign to succeed term-limited President Donald Trump in 2028.
- Sipping coffee in his West Wing office, Vance praised three progressives—Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., and New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani, calling Mamdani `fascinating`.
