À propos de cet audio
In the past several days, JD Vance has stepped into the national spotlight with a mix of leadership, emotion, and controversy. Vice President Vance’s week has been marked above all by his highly personal response to the assassination of his longtime friend and conservative activist Charlie Kirk. On September 15, Vance hosted The Charlie Kirk Show from his White House office, explicitly framing his on-air tribute both as a remembrance and a statement of resolve. According to NPR and ClickOrlando, Vance opened the show acknowledging his grief and the void left by Kirk’s death. He recounted stories shared by Kirk’s widow, reflected on his own shortcomings as a husband and father, and vowed to honor Kirk by being better in both roles. Vance’s emotional candor took another turn when he declared that national unity was impossible with “those celebrating” Kirk’s killing, a line that drew both sympathies and criticism.
Throughout his broadcast and subsequent statements, Vance pulled no punches, blaming what he called left-wing extremism for a political climate that inspired violence. ABC News and IPR reported that Vance, joined by administration officials like Stephen Miller, promised a government crackdown on groups he says foment political violence, vowing to use every resource of the federal government in Kirk’s name. At the same time, Fox News and the FBI have noted that the motive behind Kirk’s assassination remains under investigation, with some indication that the shooter had an obsession with the influencer but no clear evidence yet of a broader conspiracy.
Beyond policy and policing, Vance’s handling of Kirk’s body—personally returning it to Arizona aboard Air Force Two—and his visible support for Kirk’s widow quickly became a powerful symbol among conservatives and on social media. Instagram posts and outlets like News4SanAntonio featured images and clips from the White House tribute, drawing widespread Republican praise while fueling Democratic criticism for politicizing tragedy.
In the midst of national mourning, Vance managed a public schedule, headlining an apprenticeship program event in Howell, Michigan, on September 17. The Detroit Free Press and Right Side Broadcasting Network covered his remarks focused on job creation and blue-collar opportunity. His “America at Work” tour is aimed at supporting the Rust Belt and communicating directly with working families about Trump’s economic agenda.
Meanwhile, memorials for Charlie Kirk are planned this weekend, bringing Trump, Vance, and much of MAGA world together to mourn—and to organize. The vice president’s public appearances and unfiltered statements have dominated conservative media and trended on Twitter, with Vance portrayed alternately as a crusader against political violence and a polemicist stoking the fires of division.
No major unverified news or business activities have surfaced for Vance in this period, but his biographical trajectory seems shifted. By centering himself as heir to Kirk’s legacy, Vance has sealed his status as a leading generational voice for the GOP, positioning himself for higher ambitions even as the nation debates the future of political civility.
