Vance rally in Athens centers on Iran policy and midterms amid security concerns
Vice President JD Vance spoke at a Turning Point USA event in Athens, GA, after Erika Kirk—wife of the group’s founder—skipped the appearance due to “serious threats.” Vance touched on Iran, noted a ceasefire without a final deal, and urged students to stay engaged as midterm elections approach. Security was tight around the venue, with protesters kept at a distance and a largely supportive crowd asking questions and cheering.
