At the University of Mississippi, the vice president will walk a tightrope as he engages college students in the mode of Charlie Kirk.

Vice President JD Vance said at a Turning Point USA event that he hopes his wife, Usha, "comes to see" the Christian gospel as he does.

Thousands packed Ole Miss’ pavilion as Vice President JD Vance took unscripted questions on faith, policy and Trump-era politics.

During the Turning Point USA event, an attendee went on to ask Vance about the administration’s increased crackdown on immigration. The vice president had earlier advocated for a slowdown in legal immigration — telling the crowd, “We have to get the overall numbers way, way down.”

JD Vance has said he hopes his wife will eventually believe in the Christian gospel "in the same way" that he does.
