Knives were out for Vice President JD Vance — and coming from an unlikely ally, The Daily Beast reported Thursday.
Fox News host Brian Kilmeade fired off a tough demand and called for the Vice President to be pulled from the Iran negotiations.
“The one thing we need is a different negotiating team. If we go to negotiations and that’s a big if, this team can’t do it,” Kilmeade said.
Vance has stumbled through two rounds of high-stakes talks — first in Pakistan, then Switzerland — and has appeared shaky on the details of the deal he helped broker.
Instead, the Fox anchor argued that Vance and Special Envoy Steve Witkoff should turn their attention to Ukraine as pressure grows for the U.S. to reach an agreement amid escalating fighting this week. As the fragile truce has unraveled quickly, Tehran has struck back at American allies from Qatar to Jordan, and both sides are trading blame over who broke the ceasefire first.
Kilmeade referred to current negotiators as “a waste of time,” and claimed the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has been “calling the shots.”
“We should demand different people,” Kilmeade said. “The foreign minister is a waste of time, and the speaker is a waste of time. The IRGC is calling the shots. So, why are we pretending to talk to the other guys? Talk to the people who make the decisions. Knowing ahead of time that they’re not to be trusted.”
