The clock is ticking on the chances to stop JD Vance

Vice President JD Vance has informally launched his 2028 presidential campaign with a fundraiser in the Hamptons, raising $5 million for the Republican National Committee. The event was hosted by Omeed Malik, a financier who helped establish the Tucker Carlson Network. This connection raises concerns due to Carlson's increasingly antisemitic content and his promotion of conspiracy theories since leaving Fox News. Vance, who was endorsed by Donald Trump and Carlson in his 2022 Senate bid and 2024 vice-presidential selection, has indicated a willingness to tolerate Carlson's views, stating his vision of the Republican Party obliges him "not to turn his back on Carlson and those who subscribed to his hateful stands." This stance, coupled with Vance's evolving neo-isolationist philosophy, is seen as a troubling peril for the Republican Party and the U.S.-Israel alliance.
