Vance shares how he’s gearing up for lion’s den debut on ‘The View’

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Vice President JD Vance is set to make his first appearance on ABC’s «The View» on Wednesday, becoming just the third sitting vice president to join the daytime talk show’s panel.
«It may be the optimist in me, but I just fundamentally think that most people — not everybody, but most people — even if I disagree with them, you ought to try to have a conversation with them,» Vance told Fox News Digital in a sit-down interview Tuesday.
Vance will join all six co-hosts, including Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines, Alyssa Farah Griffin and Ana Navarro, to discuss his new book, «Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith.» His appearance comes on the heels of the Trump administration’s newly reached agreement with Iran, in which the vice president played a key role in negotiations.
Asked how he was preparing for the interview, Vance said he was approaching it as an opportunity for an earnest conversation, even with people whose views differ from his own.

«My job as Vice President of the United States is not just to talk to the people who voted for me, it’s to talk to the people who didn’t vote for me too,» said Vance.
«We’re going to go and try to have a good conversation. I hope they meet me halfway. I’m a little skeptical, but we’ll see,» he added.
Vance’s appearance comes after years of criticism from the show’s hosts, who have repeatedly targeted both him and his wife since he was tapped as President Donald Trump’s running mate.

Co-host Joy Behar argued Vance was selected to serve as vice president to be a «carbon copy» of Trump and would fail to bring in any new voters.
[Trump] «knows that he’s the vice president who will do the things that Mike Pence would not. I really do believe that. He is an election denier. He has not committed to accepting the results of this year’s elections,» Hostin said during the same episode in July 2024.
Co-host Ana Navarro once pointed out that Walz could have an opportunity to embarrass Vance prior to the vice-presidential debate last year.

«What Tim Walz needs to do is reveal JD Vance for who he is, a coward, duplicitous, hypocritical opportunist who remains silent while Trump attacks Kamala Harris for being biracial even though his children are biracial,» Navarro said. «Who remained silent while Trump supporters issue attacks on Kamala Harris for being of Indian descent, for being South Asian, even though he’s married to an Indian woman.»
Vance will be the third sitting vice president to join the program and the first Republican vice president to do so, after appearances by Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
«The View» had a total of 341 guests in 2025, but only two of them were conservative, while 128 were liberal, according to a study conducted by the Media Research Center’s NewsBusters.

In a media appearance Monday, co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin said she plans to ask Vance about the financial incentives being proposed to Iran under the newly announced peace agreement.
«He was, um, reportedly one of the chief negotiating partners. I just want to get some clarity,» she said.

Emmanuel Macron le ofreció a Siria ayuda francesa para convertirse en un nodo regional de energía y logística

El presidente de Francia, Emmanuel Macron, afirmó este martes en Damasco que su país está dispuesto a acompañar la reconstrucción de Siria y ayudar a convertirla, con el tiempo, en un “centro regional” para nuevas cadenas logísticas y corredores energéticos.
Macron participó junto al presidente sirio, Ahmed al Sharaa, en un foro económico en la capital siria, en el que ambos defendieron una nueva etapa de cooperación económica y atracción de inversiones tras la caída del régimen de Bachar al Asad, resultado de una ofensiva encabezada por el propio Al Sharaa en diciembre de 2024.
El presidente francés remarcó el interés de Francia en mantener e impulsar su apoyo para el desarrollo de Siria a través de una “asociación con efecto duradero” y “la construcción de ese nodo regional de corredores energéticos”.
Para ello, Macron, cuya visita a Siria es la primera de un líder de la UE desde el derrocamiento de Al Asad, sostuvo que la estabilización y reconstrucción del país deben generar oportunidades de empleo tanto para desplazados internos como refugiados en el extranjero.
“Es igualmente hacer de Siria, con el tiempo, un nodo regional”, afirmó al señalar que el país puede convertirse en un espacio donde se “desarrollen estrategias de largo plazo, nuevas cadenas logísticas y rutas energéticas que contribuyan a reducir los riesgos que afectan actualmente al funcionamiento de Oriente Medio”.
En ese contexto, aludió a las tensiones registradas en el estrecho de Ormuz como ejemplo de la necesidad de diversificar las rutas comerciales y energéticas, una circunstancia que, dijo, abre oportunidades para empresas e inversores franceses.
Antes de participar en este foro, hubo dos explosiones cerca del hotel donde se aloja Macron -sin que ningún autor las haya reivindicado aún- que provocaron al menos 18 heridos.
El presidente francés destacó el compromiso de Francia y de la Unión Europea con el levantamiento progresivo de las sanciones contra Siria y recordó que París fue uno de los primeros gobiernos en impulsar ese proceso, además de intentar convencer a otros socios, entre ellos Estados Unidos, para avanzar en esa dirección.
Asimismo, insistió en que la prioridad pasa por generar un “impulso de confianza” que permita atraer inversiones internacionales mediante un sistema financiero transparente y fiable.
En ese sentido, ofreció la cooperación de expertos franceses para apoyar la reforma del sistema bancario sirio, colaborar con el Grupo de Acción Financiera Internacional (GAFI), reforzar la cooperación con el Banco Central sirio y avanzar en la reestructuración de la deuda junto con el Fondo Monetario Internacional y el Club de París.
Según Macron, ese marco permitirá consolidar la estabilización del país y sentar las bases para una colaboración duradera que favorezca la creación de nuevos corredores energéticos y de conectividad regional.
Por su parte, Al Sharaa presentó a Siria como un país decidido a recuperar su papel económico gracias a su posición geográfica entre el Mediterráneo, el golfo Pérsico e Irak.
El mandatario afirmó que la reciente crisis en Ormuz puso de relieve el valor estratégico de contar con rutas marítimas seguras y sostuvo que Siria ha recuperado su relevancia como centro neurálgico para el comercio internacional.
“Queremos que Francia sea nuestro principal socio en este proyecto”, aseguró.
Asimismo, recordó que el grupo naviero francés CMA CGM firmó hace 14 meses un contrato para desarrollar el puerto de Latakia con una inversión de 230 millones de euros y posteriormente decidió ampliar el proyecto con otros 200 millones para incrementar la capacidad de la terminal hasta 625.000 contenedores antes de finales de este año.
Al Sharaa también expuso una amplia hoja de ruta para la reconstrucción que incluye la modernización de puertos, aeropuertos, navegación aérea, redes de electricidad y agua, exploración de recursos energéticos, digitalización de servicios públicos e impulso a las ciudades industriales.
Además, aseguró que su Gobierno trabaja en una reforma bancaria y regulatoria para reconectar el sistema financiero sirio con los mercados internacionales y facilitar la actividad de los inversores extranjeros mediante un entorno “seguro y transparente”, al tiempo que definió la alianza con Francia como un modelo para las futuras relaciones de Siria con Europa.
Macron, aseguró este martes que “nada podrá sofocar la aspiración de los sirios a vivir en una Siria plenamente soberana, segura, plural y unida”, después de las dos explosiones registradas en el centro de Damasco durante su visita oficial al país.
“He conocido esta mañana Siria en toda su diversidad. He visto dignidad, coraje y determinación. Mi visita continúa”, escribió el mandatario francés en sus redes sociales mientras proseguía su agenda oficial.
El Elíseo confirmó que Macron mantiene sin cambios el programa de su visita de dos días a la capital siria, pese a las explosiones registradas en las inmediaciones del hotel donde pasó la noche.

“El programa continúa”, indicaron fuentes de la Presidencia francesa, que precisaron que, en el momento de las detonaciones, el jefe del Estado se encontraba en el Palacio Presidencial, donde mantenía una reunión con el presidente interino sirio, Ahmed al Sharaa, y las delegaciones de ambos países.
Macron realiza la primera visita de un jefe de Estado o de Gobierno de la Unión Europea a Siria desde la llegada al poder de la coalición islamista. Durante el encuentro con Al Sharaa, ambos dirigentes abordan la reactivación de la cooperación económica, la reconstrucción del país y cuestiones de seguridad.
Según la televisión estatal siria Al Ijbariya y la agencia oficial SANA, dos artefactos explosivos improvisados detonaron cerca del Ministerio de Turismo y del hotel Four Seasons. El Ministerio del Interior indicó que los explosivos habían sido detectados por las Fuerzas de Seguridad Interna durante operaciones sobre el terreno y que se abrió una investigación para identificar a los responsables.
Las autoridades sirias informaron de que al menos 18 personas, entre ellas cuatro agentes de policía, resultaron heridas en las explosiones, sin que por el momento se haya reivindicado su autoría.
Los atentados se producen pocos días después de otro ataque con bomba en una cafetería frecuentada por abogados, que causó diez muertos y 21 heridos, coincidiendo con el inicio de los juicios contra altos cargos del derrocado régimen de Bachar al Asad, acusados de asesinatos y de la represión de las protestas de 2011 que desencadenaron la guerra civil siria.

Dem senator accused of being ‘nowhere to be found’ on crucial issue impacting kids in swing state

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Sen. Jon Ossoff, D-Ga., is being accused by Georgia’s top child welfare official of using vulnerable children and the state’s embattled foster care system for campaign credit after releasing a new ad touting his work on the state’s troubled system.
Georgia Division of Family & Children Services (DFCS) Director Candice Broce criticized the new foster care-focused ad released last week as the Georgia Democrat seeks re-election in one of the nation’s most closely watched races. In the ad, titled «Our Kids,» Ossoff highlights «a scathing report» and «yearlong bipartisan investigation» alongside Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., into the Georgia foster care system.
Ossoff presents his probe and new legislation as part of his record protecting children and holding the system accountable. However, Broce says the Democrat is overstating his role and turning a serious child welfare issue into a political victory lap.
«For five years, I’ve been in the trenches fighting for vulnerable children and foster care reform alongside thousands of DFCS workers. Trust us when we say Jon Ossoff is nowhere to be found,» Broce said in a post on X. «Ossoff didn’t get more funding for DFCS after calling us incompetent and resource-strapped. He didn’t secure more federal support for child advocacy centers despite the State’s requests.»

«He didn’t fix federal law putting group homes out of business,» she continued. «He hasn’t streamlined adoptions for kids placed with loving families. Jon’s ad sounds great, but his words are meaningless to the men and women in the arena.»
Ossoff’s team fired back, however, calling Broce an «unqualified partisan political hack» and accusing her of «dangerous incompetence.» They pointed to Ossoff’s oversight work highlighted in the advertisement that Broce criticizes, which the spokesperson said found children in Georgia’s foster care system were likely sex trafficked while in state care, among other issues.
«The Office of the Child Advocate, juvenile court judges, former foster children, nonpartisan advocates, investigative reporting, and Senator Ossoff’s yearlong investigation have laid bare the deep and dangerous dysfunction at DFCS,» an Ossoff campaign spokesperson told Fox News Digital.
The campaign also cited testimony from juvenile court judges who accused Broce of suggesting that children with special needs be held in juvenile detention while DFCS searched for placements. Broce has denied the allegations, describing them as politically motivated and arguing they distort a broader discussion about how to keep foster youth with complex behavioral issues, runaway histories and trafficking risks safe amid placement shortages.

«Candice Broce is a partisan political hack irresponsibly placed in charge of care for the state’s most vulnerable kids,» the Ossoff spokesperson said. «Instead of whining that her dangerous incompetence was made public, she should fix her broken agency.»
Broce rejected the attacks on her qualifications, pointing to her background as a health care attorney, former chief deputy executive counsel and chief operating officer to Gov. Brian Kemp and saying roughly 40 state agencies, including DFCS, reported to her in that role.
At the same time, she did not dispute that Georgia’s foster care system has faced serious challenges, but argued Ossoff used those problems for hearings, reports and campaign messaging without delivering meaningful help to fix them.
«If you’re going to beat us down, show up with something to make it better,» Broce said. «He didn’t do that.»

Broce said Ossoff could have used his federal role to pursue resources on Medicaid, behavioral health access and placement capacity, rather than simply spotlighting DFCS failures.
«What’s actually bipartisan is the over $100 million in state funds we’ve gotten from Republican and Democrat legislators who support the issues we’re tackling and believe we deserve more resources,» Broce said. «If he decides today that he actually wants to help us and vulnerable Georgia kids, we’d welcome him with open arms.»

However, Ossoff’s team contests it is not even «Senator Ossoff’s job to fix the state agency [Broce] leads» in the first place, and said Broce was whining that «it’s Senator Ossoff’s job to fix the state agency she leads.»
«While Sen. Ossoff led oversight, passed an anti-trafficking law, and helped save foster care funding President Trump cut, unqualified partisan hack Broce whines it’s Senator Ossoff’s job to fix the state agency she leads,» Ossoff’s representatives told Fox News Digital.

Broce’s criticism of Ossoff included a contrast between his record and that of Georgia’s other U.S. Senator, Democrat Raphael Warnock. Broce called the difference «stark,» pointing to Warnock’s community events for vulnerable mothers and children and adoption-related measures as examples of practical support she says Ossoff has not delivered.
«Compare his child welfare record to Warnock’s. It’s crystal clear which U.S. Senator from Georgia cares about vulnerable families and kids, and it’s not Jon,» Broce said in her X post.
Ossoff, who ran unopposed for the Democratic nomination, is seeking a second term in November against Rep. Mike Collins, R-Ga., who won the Republican nomination after defeating former football coach Derek Dooley in a mid-June GOP runoff election. Warnock will not face reelection again until 2028.
