About this listen
JD Vance has been everywhere these past few days. As Vice President, he’s been right at the center of some of the summer’s biggest headlines. On Monday, Vance leapt into the social media battleground to defend President Trump’s position on Iran, calling out what he described as “crazy” claims on X and insisting Trump has remained consistent for a decade—Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, period. Vance wrote that Trump had pushed his foreign policy team to lock down a deal with Tehran, and made clear that if Iran wants civilian nuclear power, it can only have it without uranium enrichment, which Iran has flatly rejected. He cited the International Atomic Energy Agency’s findings of Iran violating non-proliferation rules and stressed the White House is weighing “further action” if Iran refuses to halt enrichment—though he was careful to add that ultimately, the president will decide how far to take things. This messaging seems calculated, not just to project resolve abroad, but to silence a recent wave of right-wing critics worried about foreign entanglements, as reported by the Associated Press and Times of Israel.
If global affairs weren’t enough, Vance has also inserted himself right into a high-profile spat between Trump and Elon Musk. In a tell-all style interview on the “This Past Weekend” podcast, Vance called the Trump–Musk feud a “blood feud” and said it’s “not going to be good for Elon,” especially now that Tesla’s shares have cratered following Musk’s public criticisms of the administration’s policies. Still, Vance left the door open for reconciliation, suggesting Musk “chilled out a little bit” everything would be fine—a bit of a wink to Silicon Valley and MAGA world alike, as reported by Fortune.
On the public appearance front, Vance was front and center at the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army Grand Military Parade, delivering full remarks and highlighting the administration’s support for military tradition and national unity, which was livestreamed by the White House. Just days earlier, he was seen at the American Compass Gala in D.C., sharing the stage with Oren Cass and earning praise from Senator Marco Rubio for his leadership and influence within the administration.
As for the social circuit and culture wars, Vance is set to address the National March for Life—his first as vice president. This appearance, announced by the March for Life Education and Defense Fund, is being touted as a sign of his commitment to “standing up for life,” putting Vance front and center as one of the GOP’s most visible pro-life standard-bearers.
All told, JD Vance is in the thick of it: shaping foreign policy on Iran, refereeing Trump’s clashes with Musk, serving as a key voice in the White House, and staking out ground on abortion. With each move, he’s leaving his mark on the summer’s biggest stories and, quite possibly, shaping the future of American conservatism.
