MAGA Sharpens Knives for ABC Host After He Cuts Off Vance [View all]

MAGAworld is out for George Stephanopoulos yet again after the ABC host challenged Vice President JD Vance in a testy interview on Sunday. Conservatives lashed out at Stephanopoulos for cutting off Vance and abruptly cueing in commercials after a tense back-and-forth over border czar Tom Homan, who was reportedly caught on tape by the FBI accepting $50,000 in cash during an undercover operation last year.

During a nearly four-minute sparring session, the host of ABC’s This Week asked five times whether or not Homan kept the money. Vance repeatedly shut down the story as a “ridiculous smear” and argued that “there’s no evidence” the border czar accepted any bribes.

Vance grew increasingly frustrated and ended the interview by attacking Stephanopoulos, claiming that he was “losing credibility” with viewers for “going down some weird left-wing rabbit hole” instead of asking about the government shutdown. Before discussing Homan, however, Stephanopoulos had also asked Vance about the Israel-Hamas ceasefire and the deployment of troops to Illinois.

“It’s not a weird left-wing rabbit hole. I didn’t insinuate anything,” Stephanopoulos shot back. “I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50,000 as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024 and you did not answer the question. Thank you for your time this morning.” “No, George, I said…” Vance rebutted right as Stephanopoulos told viewers, “We’ll be right back.”
