Summary

Kelly Beaucar Vlahos returns to the show to discuss recent articles she’s written on the hawkish elements trying to take control of the America First movement. They start with a discussion about Peter Thiel, who Vlahos does not trust, and JD Vance, who she still has concerns about but thinks is a bit better. They then move onto Vlahos’ experience covering the National Conservative conference, where her hopes to see more voices of restraint and realism emerging on the right were dashed by another year of Bush-era anti-Muslim fearmongering. Discussed on the show: “Peter Thiel: 'I defer to Israel’” (Responsible Statecraft) “The AI machine directing Israel’s bombing spree in Gaza” (+972 Magazine) “Retro Israel panel defies 'America First' foreign policy” (Responsible Statecraft) Kelley Beaucar Vlahos is Editorial Director of Responsible Statecraft and Senior Advisor at the Quincy Institute.
