VP JD Vance Exclusive: Rebuilding the Heartland and Life as VP
20 Aug 2026
In an exclusive interview, United States Vice President JD Vance spoke with Clay and Buck. He broke news, telling them that the Iran war has “entered a new phase.” He also remarked that a fundamental question to him is: “Iran’s nuclear facilities are destroyed, but the question is: Do they try to rebuild them?”
The vice president also spoke about everything from how he and his wife, Usha, handle the care of their four children, including their one-month-old, through loving teamwork where Usha can concentrate on their infant, while JD takes charge of the older children.
His new book, Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith, was written 80% before he became vice president, started just after his first best-selling memoir was published. The vice president summed up Communion for Clay and Buck: “I wanted to help people understand, why is it that kids like me, raised in the Christian faith, why did we lose our faith and how do we come back to it?”
