During a recent CBS News town hall, Joey Amor confronted Vice President JD Vance about the death of his wife, Master Sgt. Nicole Amor, who was one of the first American service members to die in the ongoing U.S.-Iran war. Amor pressed Vance on whether the Trump administration would hold accountable those responsible for "mistakes" and "fundamental failures." Master Sgt. Amor died in an Iranian drone attack on March 1, 2026, at a U.S. outpost in Kuwait, just one day after the U.S. began striking Iran. This incident remains the deadliest attack on U.S. forces during the conflict. Families affected by the attack have questioned whether the military did enough to protect Americans stationed at Kuwait's Port of Shuaiba, noting concerns about inadequate fortifications and anti-drone capabilities.
