Vice President JD Vance clashed with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos on This Week, bristling at questions about an FBI tape allegedly capturing Tom Homan accepting $50,000. As Vance argued to focus on a potential shutdown, Stephanopoulos cut to commercial, saying Vance hadn’t answered. Vance later blasted the segment on X; the White House echoed him. The Homan probe, an undercover sting from September 2024, has been closed, with Homan and the White House denying wrongdoing. The dust-up follows a separate dispute settled after November, when ABC and Stephanopoulos paid to resolve a lawsuit over comments about the Carroll case.
