Conservative commentator Mark Levin pushed back at Vice President Vance's remarks, suggesting the administration should stop "bullying" its ally Israel. His comment was reported Thursday evening by Israeli media.
Mark Levin, a prominent conservative commentator and Trump confidant, responded Thursday evening to remarks made by Vice President JD Vance regarding US-Israel relations. Levin's post, reported via N12's the source, stated: "Here's a brilliant idea: stop bullying our ally and cozying up to our enemy." The comment reflects growing pushback from pro-Israel voices in the US conservative sphere against what they perceive as a shift in the administration's tone toward Jerusalem.
This follows a series of public exchanges between Trump administration figures and Israeli officials. The Zioneer previously reported on Levin criticizing Trump himself for calling Prime Minister Netanyahu "a problematic person" and for what Levin described as an insufficiently supportive posture toward Israel's campaign against Hezbollah. Levin has been a vocal defender of Israeli military operations and has repeatedly urged the administration to adopt a stronger pro-Israel line.
