Vice-president scapegoats migrants as ‘greatest threat’ to both Europe and US at largest conservative voters conference

JD Vance marked the Trump administration’s one month since its return to power on Thursday by again claiming uncontrolled immigration was “the greatest threat” to both Europe and the United States.

The vice-president took the stage at the country’s largest conservative voters conference in National Harbor, Maryland, to double down on his criticism that stunned European leaders last week when he accused them of suppressing free speech and “running in fear” from voters’ true beliefs.
