BREAKING: Two More Heritage Foundation Board Members Resign Amid Tucker-Fuentes Fallout [View all]

Two more members of The Heritage Foundation’s Board of Trustees, Shane McCullar and Abby Spencer Moffat, resigned on Tuesday, citing concerns over Heritage’s direction and approach to combating anti-Semitism.

A statement from McCullar obtained by Mediaite reads:

When Ed Feulner encouraged me to join the Board of The Heritage Foundation, I did so to help advance the ideals of America’s Founding. My intention was to work from within to further the conservative principles in alignment with our great nation. Today, I have resigned from the Board of Trustees of the Heritage Foundation in furtherance of those same values.

No institution that hesitates to condemn antisemitism and hatred—or that gives a platform to those who spread them—can credibly claim to uphold the vision that once made the Heritage Foundation the world’s most respected conservative think tank. And, I cannot, in good conscience, remain on a board that is unwilling to confront the lapses in judgment that have harmed its credibility, its culture, and the conservative movement it once helped shape. I leave with respect for the Heritage Foundation’s past, but I cannot support the course it has chosen for its future. My commitment to the principles that brought me here remains unchanged, which is why I must now step away.


After Tucker Carlson conducted a friendly interview with white nationalist leader Nick Fuentes earlier this fall, the think tank’s president, Kevin Roberts, released a fiery video defending Carlson and excoriating what he described as the “venomous coalition” criticizing him. Roberts’s handling of the situation was the subject of much scorn, including on the right, and he eventually recanted.
