J.D. Vance talks about AI and just war in Air Force Academy speech
J.D. Vance told the Class of 2026 Air Force Academy that life and death decisions should not be made by AI.
Vice President J.D. Vance will appear live on “The View” on June 16, marking his first appearance on a daytime talk show.
Vance will live in the show’s New York studio with co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, Sarah Haines, Alyssa Farrah Griffin and Ana Navarro to discuss his new book, according to an ABC news release.
We also talk about current political headlines, President Donald Trump’s administration, and the issues facing the country.
The vice president’s debut on the ABC show coincided with the release of his latest memoir, “Communion: Finding My Back to Faith.”
The co-hosts of “The View” have sparred with the Trump administration. Most recently, the show was the subject of an investigation by the Federal Communications Commission.
When will JD Vance appear on “The View”?
Vance’s appearance on “The View” will air on Tuesday, June 16 at 11 a.m. ET.
His visit comes on the same day as the release of his memoir, “Communion,” which focuses on his Christian faith. The vice president converted to Catholicism in 2019.
“The View” and the background of the Trump administration
Vance will likely face tough questions from the hosts of “The View” as commentators often criticize the Trump administration.
The program also attracted the attention of the president and cabinet members.
Last year, co-host Behar said Trump was jealous of former President Barack Obama because “Obama is everything he’s not.”
White House Press Secretary Taylor Rogers, meanwhile, called Behar an “irrelevant loser suffering from severe Trump Derangement Syndrome.”
“It’s no surprise that The View’s ratings hit an all-time low last year. She should reflect on her own jealousy of President Trump’s historic popularity before her show is next taken off the air,” Rogers said in a statement at the time.
More recently, the FCC last month asked for public input on whether “The View” should be exempted from requirements to provide equal broadcasting opportunities to political candidates.
In February, FCC Chairman Brendan Carr announced that the commission had taken action against ABC under equal time rules after Texas Rep. James Talarico appeared on “The View” while running in the state’s Democratic Senate primary.
