At the Turning Point USA conference in Phoenix last week, the vice president was a heavy favorite, securing the endorsement of CEO Erika Kirk and winning a straw poll of attendees.

On the heels of the AmericaFest convention held by Turning Point USA (TPUSA), in which the group formerly led by slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk indicated it would support Vice President JD Vance for president in 2028, the group is set to start early support for Vance in key states such as Iowa and New Hampshire.

While Rubio and Carlson back Vance as Trump's heir apparent, two Republican lawmakers criticize his trade policies and views on antisemitism.

JD Vance predicts Republicans will soundly defeat Democrats in next year's midterm elections, in a speech at major conservative summit, sparking enthusiastic USA chants from the crowd.

The vice president’s plea for a big-tent coalition at an annual conservative gathering belied the cracks in his party over antisemitism, racism and conspiracy theories.

Rifts over the direction of the conservative movement emerged during Turning Point USA's conference, as speakers attacked each other by name.

Recently endorsed by Charlie Kirk’s widow for a possible 2028 presidential run, Vice President JD Vance promised to pick up Kirk's mantle.

Vice President JD Vance’s path to a potential 2028 GOP presidential nomination is facing a complicated path forward as he navigates warring factions of the MAGA movement, split over the United States’ support for Israel.
