Sources from October 20, 2026 report that Brian Kilmeade and Lawrence Jones called Vance 'anti-Israel' on Fox & Friends, which satisfies the claim's 'anti-Semitic or anti-Israel' disjunction. No source shows them calling him anti-Semitic, and the post itself said it did not know if they had.
The host relays this claim without endorsing it. It counts as passed on, not against the post.

The Health Ranger Report · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Supports. A muted.news report says Kilmeade and Lawrence Jones slammed Vance as 'anti-Israel' on Fox & Friends on a Tuesday, after he declined to endorse Netanyahu, and quotes Kilmeade saying Vance 'seems to be a little bit anti-Israel.'[1]
Supports. A social media post quoting the Fox & Friends segment reports Kilmeade saying Vance 'seems to be a little bit anti-Israel' and Lawrence Jones adding comments on the same exchange, corroborating the on-air remarks.[2]
Context. Jones's separate on-air criticism of Vance's Israel comments on Fox & Friends in July 2026 shows a consistent pattern, though it does not itself address the October remarks.[3]
Context. No source reports Kilmeade or Jones calling Vance anti-Semitic, so that half of the disjunction is uncorroborated; the 'anti-Israel' half carries the claim.[1][2]
