What do the LEAKED JD Vance tapes from the Republican Jewish Coalition event actually tell us about Tucker Carlson, the GOP and the race for 2028?

In this episode, Erin plays nearly three minutes of leaked audio from Vice President JD Vance’s off-the-record appearance at the Republican Jewish Coalition before sitting down with Professor Jeffrey Lax to unpack what Vance said — and just as importantly, what he did not say — when asked about Tucker Carlson, Nick Fuentes and antisemitism.

Lax argues that Vance’s response raises a much bigger question about where the Vice President stands politically, who is shaping the post-Trump Republican movement, and what all of this could mean if Vance runs for president in 2028.

Erin and Professor Lax also discuss the RJC’s reaction to Vance, Norm Coleman’s “re-endorse” comment, whether Tucker Carlson could ever have a role in a future Vance administration, Donald Trump’s own public criticism of Tucker, and why Vance has remained far more reluctant to draw a clear line.

The conversation then widens to the Brad Lander moment in New York, Hasan Piker, the politics of antisemitism on both the left and right, and Lax’s theory about the political relationships surrounding Vance and Carlson — including Don Jr., Lara Trump and Omid Malik.

Watch the full conversation and decide for yourself: what do these leaked tapes really tell us about JD Vance, Tucker Carlson and 2028?
