WASHINGTON — Former Trump economic adviser Stephen Moore resigned from the conservative Heritage Foundation on Thursday amid fierce backlash — and pressure from donors — over think tank president Kevin Roberts’ defense of Tucker Carlson platforming white nationalist Nick Fuentes. Moore served for more than a decade as a fellow at one of the largest right-of-center think tanks in Washington, DC, yet didn’t reference the internal revolt over Roberts’ embrace of Carlson or subsequent apology for his choice of words — though sources told The Post the economist was facing pressure to depart. “After 12 happy and productive years, I have decided to resign my position as senior visiting fellow at the Heritage Foundation in order to concentrate my work load on continuing to build up @Comm4Prosperity [Committee to Unleash Prosperity] and the mounting influence of our daily Hotline,” Moore posted on X.
