    **In Brief:**

    * Buckley Carlson, the 28-year-old son of conservative media personality Tucker Carlson, quit working for Vance, Politico reports. He has been working as a press assistant in the vice president’s office since January 2025, just after the inauguration.
    * The timing of Buckley’s departure raises eyebrows, as President Donald Trump has been in a nonstop rage against his father over Tucker’s criticism of the war in Iran.
    * Tucker has been one of the most outspoken conservative media figures against Trump’s war with Iran since it was launched Feb. 28.
    * He has also been against American military action in the Middle East throughout his career, having long railed against the older “neocon” era of the Republican Party.
    * In recent weeks, he has taken to his online show, *The Tucker Carlson Show*, to publicly bash Trump for engaging in a war with Iran.

    Indeed, there is a special seat in hell reserved for Tucker Carlson for his role in boosting Trump and Vance.

  3. The GOP split continues… the pressure to rid Buckley comes from Dumpy’s corner.

    I guess we gotta appreciate someone putting their family ahead of the MAGA cult.

  5. Looks like a move Tucker would want if he was thinking of running for president. He’s a hateful sack of shit and I hope he steps on Lego, but if he wants an issue to point to that differentiates him from the Trump administration he was boosting until 10 minutes ago, Iran is gift-wrapped for him.

    Ha! My son went to UVA at the same time as ole Buckley, and he was a well-known coke head. My boy lived across from BC’s coke dealer

    Buckley Carlson is such an aesthetically bad name. It really trips off the tongue.

  8. Tucker & Buckley what’s with this family naming their kids with douchey names

  9. Vance, do the right thing and just straight up turn on Trump please, save any last shred of decency you may have

  10. „This Buckley kid has a famous father? You’re telling me this for the first time“

  11. Vance will be gone within a year. Trump doesn’t respect him and resents him for being viewed as “the future of the party”. It’s crazy while he craves being surrounded by sycophants it appears he eventually loses respect for them over time for having no backbone. Which makes it all the easier to throw them under bus when they fail (see Noem and Bondi).

  12. No, that would be Peter Thiel who threw millions at Vance to get him a senate seat

  13. To an older Australian such as myself naming some „Buckley“ is quite amusing.

    IN the 19th C we had a politician whose surname was Buckley who always lost. It became proverbial: „You have two chances, none and Buckley’s“.

  14. Just another reminder that J.D. Vance isn’t a person, he’s a digital opinion piece penned by Tucker Carlson and Peter Thiel who breaks ties in the Senate and kills Popes.

  15. So Tucker named his son after William F. Buckley.

    Sounds like a name you’d give your dog.

  16. Buckley was my dorm hall mate at UVA in 2015/16. He and his roommate just stunk the place up with weed all day, every day. Almost never interacted with the rest of us in the hall. Weird guy.

    JD Vance could be our next president.

    Since that is a real possibility, I am asking for y’all to hear me out.

    I have an idea for a viral modern art piece that would humiliate JD Vance.

    There is a modern art piece that was unveiled several years ago titled [Can’t Help Myself](https://youtu.be/ZS4Bpr2BgnE?si=9NRuTYhEgPP14pX7). It’s the robot that is constantly leaking hydraulic fluid and trying to sweep it back towards the base to be suctioned back up into the system.

    My idea is for a leftist artist or art collective to build a modern art piece titled „JD Vance Couldn’t Help Himself“. Instead of a robot, it will be a couch with a dick-sized hole in one of the cushions that is constantly oozing fake ejaculate. There will be suction holes on the legs to put it back into the system and make it perpetual.

    There could be several of these installed all over the US, in New York, Chicago, LA. The different couches just have to look fuckable.

    Anyone is free to take this idea and make it. I’m not an artist, so I dont think I could create it, the thought just came to me.

    And then 9 months after the installation is unveiled, a wailing, anthropomorphic robotic couch/baby hybrid with the face of JD Vance comes crawling out of the hole and hits the news cycle again.

    Tucker Carlson doesn’t have the influence he did even just a few years ago. He’s not on FOX News anymore, doesn’t talk to Trump all the time like he did in his first term.

  19. A kid with a famous last name who likely got a job because of nepotism? I thought Conservatives hated that?

    All of his fake backstory aside, this guy really isn’t very bright. I kept thinking “There has to be a clever angle for him here” with every single misstep. No, there’s not, he’s just a f***ing idiot.

    I still can’t get over the names. Tucker named his kids Buckley, Hopie, Lillie and Dorothy. They sound like a dust bowl family that went on the road and took up vaudeville.

  22. There is a documentary series on HBO, The Lady and the Dale, about a con artist/trans woman who started a fake car company. In the documentary they interview an investigative journalist who covered the story. His name was Dick Carlson, the aptly named father of Tucker. If you want to know why Tucker is the way he is, watch the few minutes of interview with his dad. Dick really had no problem with people losing deposits on cars that didn’t exist. His only complaint was the con artist was trans. Later, Ronald Reagan appointed Dick as the head of Voice of America. For homework, lookup Tucker’s mother.
