JD Vance Vows Retribution On Liberal Institutions After Charlie Kirk Killing (Video)

Vice President JD Vance vowed to dismantle institutions on the left that he said promote violence and terrorism, denouncing two of the country’s most prominent liberal foundations in the aftermath of the fatal shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

Vance called out the “generous tax treatment” that George Soros’s Open Society Foundations and the Ford Foundation receive as he accused the groups of funding a “disgusting article” in the Nation magazine that he said was used to justify Kirk’s death.

Vance’s effort to link the two foundations to the article appears to be inaccurate. The Ford Foundation last provided a grant to the Nation for an internship program in 2019 but has not provided money since, according to online records. Bhaskar Sunkara, the president of the Nation, said on X that the publication had never received funds from the Open Society Foundations. Vance’s office, asked about his accusation, provided a link to a report about the Nation by a conservative group, which in turn cited a 2017 report about Open Society Foundations grants.
