Jacob Reses, Vance’s Jewish chief of staff, to leave administration

JL;DR SUMMARY Jacob Reses, the Jewish chief of staff to U.S. Vice President JD Vance, is stepping down at the end of summer 2025 due to personal reasons.

Now, Dude, that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me. And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
