Moral Cowardice': Erick Erickson Torches JD Vance for Entertaining Anti-Semitism
"Vance left that incendiary claim uncorrected while pouring the gasoline on the fire. When people say that Israel is somehow manipulating or controlling the President of the United States, they're not controlling this President of the United States, which is one of the reasons why we've been able to have some of the success that we've had in the Middle East, boasted Vance."
"There was peace. Then there was war on October 7, 2023. I know the Vice President of the United States was repulsed by this. I know Kevin Roberts at the Heritage Foundation was repulsed by this. But I also know that after it happened, Tucker Carlson suggested Hamas had been mischaracterized and really was not a terrorist organization. I know Nick Fuentes joked about the barbarism. I know Tucker Carlson has elevated and attempted to normalize people sympathetic to Hitler's case for World War II."
"I know a progressive trans-activist murdered Charlie Kirk and Nick Fuentes mocked Kirk's death and blamed the Jews. So did others in Tucker Carlson's orbit. Only a short time after a trans activist locked children in a church to gun them down and a trans activist murdered Kirk, suddenly some loud voices on the right, including Fuentes, were blaming Jews instead."
Erick Erickson criticized Vice President J.D. Vance for failing to correct an anti‑Semitic student at a Turning Point USA event and for amplifying the student's incendiary claim. Erickson also faulted Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts for entertaining anti‑Semitic voices within Republican circles. Erickson tied the problem to post‑October 7, 2023 dynamics, noting figures who downplayed or normalized Hamas and extremists, and citing instances where Nick Fuentes and others mocked victims and blamed Jews. Erickson accused some Republican leaders of dancing around extremist personalities to attract younger supporters, thereby enabling a rising specter of Jew‑hatred.
