Is support for Israel still bipartisan — or has something fundamentally changed?
In this episode of J100, Matt Brooks – CEO of the Republican Jewish Coalition – speaks about the evolving relationship between the United States and Israel, Party divides, and American Jewish identity.
They discuss the breakdown of old political assumptions, the rise of extremism across both sides, tensions on college campuses, and what actually drives Jewish voters today.
At the center of it all is a deeper question: when the world feels less stable, what matters more — ideology, or security?
A sharp, timely conversation about power, politics, and the forces reshaping the current moment.
