VP Vance, Wife, And Dog Tour Southern California

SANTA MONICA—On June 23, Vice President JD Vance, Second Lady, Usha Vance, and their dog Atlas landed in San Diego following their stay at the Bürgenstock Resort, a luxury mountaintop destination above Lake Lucerne. They traveled for a summit regarding U.S. diplomacy and peace talks with Iran. Vance is leading the delegation in negotiations to end the Iran War. “The Honorable JD Vance at the Nixon Library.  Join us on Thursday, June 25, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library for a candid conversation with Vice President on the issues of shaping America’s future. This program marks the release of his deeply personal memoir, Communion: Finding My Way Back to the Faith, and how his convictions continue to inform his public life,” and “Seating is limited,” stated the website for the Richard Nixon Library. Approximately 400 supporters filled the seats of the Nixon Library and received a copy of Vance’s new book. During his speech, Vance spoke on his faith journey, and making his way back to his Catholic roots, back to his faith, as discussed in his first book, “Hillbilly Elegy.” Vance talked about similarities between himself and Nixon stating: “Young Senator, Vice President, writes some best-selling books, is hated by the media.  It kind of sound like JD Vance.” “If Watergate happened tomorrow, it would be like a 12-hour news story. The idea that it would have taken down a presidency is crazy. If you look at the story of how the deep state took down Richard Nixon, it’s not all that different from what the same groups of people, the same institutions tried to do to Donald Trump in the first Trump Administration.” Supporters and critics against the Trump Administration were in attendance outside the Nixon Library as the Vice President spoke. They utilized military transport for their security motorcade and were escorted by the Secret Service and the California Highway Patrol as they traveled to Santa Monica. VP Vance appeared on “Real Time with Bill Maher,” to discuss foreign issues related to current Trump Administration. The second couple will return to Washington DC for the 250th birthday of the nation in Washington D.C. As Chair of Finance for the Republican Party, Vance spent the Fourth of July weekend in San Diego in 2025. His motorcade was spotted at Soichi Sushi during, and he was the recipient of an award last year given by Claremont Institute. By Sharon
