Donald Trump Jr. didn’t hold back in his response to anonymous Republican senators criticizing Vice President JD Vance over his foreign policy stance, calling them “pussies” for hiding behind secrecy instead of standing by their words. The backlash came after The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg published details from a leaked Signal group chat where Vance reportedly expressed reservations about U.S. military strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen.
According to Goldberg, Vance questioned the timing of the strikes, stating, “I am not sure the president is aware how inconsistent this is with his message on Europe right now… There’s a further risk that we see a moderate to severe spike in oil prices. I am willing to support the consensus of the team and keep these concerns to myself. But there is a strong argument for delaying this a month, doing the messaging work on why this matters, seeing where the economy is, etc.”
Rather than engaging in an open debate, several GOP senators chose to anonymously vent their frustrations to Jewish Insider, with one calling Vance’s stance “very disappointing” and another claiming his foreign policy views were “perplexing to our European allies.” Predictably, the liberal media seized on these anonymous gripes to push their narrative of Republican infighting while ignoring the real issue—weak-kneed establishment Republicans who refuse to stand behind America First policies.
Trump Jr. fired back, calling out the spinelessness of these unnamed critics. “These seven cowardly neocons attacking J.D. anonymously are genuine pussies. If they really feel this way, then they should at least be man enough to put their names to these quotes,” he told Jewish Insider. “The fact that they are too cowardly to do that is exactly why I’m so happy that these RINOs are a dying breed in our party—whether they realize it or not.”
A source familiar with the situation told the Daily Caller News Foundation that “Senate neocons were pushing this on at least one other outlet and the Jewish Insider was the only rag unserious enough to run these smears.” The liberal media, always eager to amplify division within the GOP, happily played along, proving once again that their goal isn’t honest reporting but undermining President Trump’s America First agenda.
Vance’s measured approach—prioritizing strategic messaging and economic stability over knee-jerk military action—reflects the kind of disciplined leadership President Trump has championed. While the swamp creatures and their media allies clutch their pearls over Vance’s pragmatism, real conservatives understand that blind interventionism has cost America trillions and countless lives with little to show for it.
I think we know who these Senators are.
They are fuming because JD always puts America First. Always
These senators are so terrified of our movement they refuse to go on the record and instead hide as “anonymous”
Cowards. https://t.co/DXmhIAlX6t

President Trump has consistently put America’s interests first, whether in trade, energy independence, or foreign policy. The anonymous GOP critics, meanwhile, represent the same failed establishment thinking that led to endless wars and globalist concessions. Their cowardice in hiding behind anonymity only proves they know their outdated views are out of step with the American people.
