  • JD Vance BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

    Vice President JD Vance has been sweeping headlines this week, stirring controversy, fielding criticism, and preparing for high-profile appearances as the Catholic world faces the aftermath of Pope Francis's death. The biggest buzz erupted after President Donald Trump posted an AI-generated image of himself as the Pope on Truth Social, days ahead of the papal conclave. Vance, himself Catholic and notably among the last to meet Pope Francis before his passing, was quick to defend Trump publicly, calling the post a joke and jabbing back at critics like Bill Kristol with a pointed dig about war and American lives. According to Politico, Vance wrote on X that he is fine with people telling jokes but not with people “starting stupid wars that kill thousands of my countrymen,” a comment that drew immediate backlash, especially from Catholic circles and social media users. The New York State Catholic Conference rebuked Trump and, by extension, Vance for what they saw as disrespect to the late Pope and the Church in a time of mourning. Even Senator Lindsey Graham, never one to miss a moment, joined the online banter, humorously pitching Trump as the next pope.

    Away from Vatican drama, Vance has also been in the hot seat over his dismissive take on recent negative polls. In an appearance on Fox News, as reported by The Independent, Vance said he doesn’t really care about his or the administration’s poor approval ratings, insisting that “if you do a good job, you worry about the polls later.” Social media was quick to roast him for this, with critics accusing him of not caring about public opinion unless it suits him. This comes in a turbulent political moment, with the administration ushering in controversial tariffs and fast-tracking mass deportations—policies adding to Vance’s complicated public persona.

    On the calendar, Vance is set for major public appearances. He’s confirmed to speak at the U.S. Naval Academy’s graduation on May 23, an event the Academy will stream live but keep closed to the general public. According to USNA Public Affairs and CBS News Baltimore, Vance’s own military service as a Marine journalist will likely be a cornerstone of his address. Looking back, earlier this year, Vance made biographical waves as the first Catholic vice president since Joe Biden and a visible speaker at the 2025 March for Life, echoing the administration’s pro-life stance.

    Online, Vance’s every move continues to be dissected, with his responses to critics, defense of administration antics, and Catholic identity all fueling speculation about his long-term ambitions. No major business developments for Vance have surfaced in the last few days, with the narrative firmly centered on his political maneuvers, social media jousting, and the high-wire drama surrounding the Vatican. The next few weeks, especially with the ongoing papal conclave, promise to keep his name buzzing across headlines and timelines alike.
