Trump supporters claim foreign meddling as Israeli-funded host targets Vice President Vance

Trump-aligned figures are warning that Emily Schrader, a host for the Jerusalem News Syndicate (JNS), is part of a foreign-backed effort to smear Vice President JD Vance. Since 2025, Schrader has used her podcast and social-media accounts to label Vance a “clown” and suggest he wants the Iranian regime to survive. JNS, which supplies content to many Jewish publications, has been funded with at least $1.2 million by the Adelson Family Foundation, a known donor to Republican and Trump-friendly causes.

Schrader also appears on ILTV Israel News, a channel formerly owned by a close associate of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and now owned by tech investor Reuven Moskowitz, who lives near Netanyahu in Caesarea. Former officials from the Trump administration have called Schrader’s activity “textbook foreign interference,” noting her self-description as an “American-Israeli journalist.” one outlet sought comment from Schrader but received none.
