Vance Delivers AmericaFest Keynote in Phoenix Citing Deportation Figures

Vice President JD Vance delivered the headline address at Turning Point USA's AmericaFest 2025 in Phoenix, Arizona on Dec. 21, 2025, citing the administration's first-year deportation statistics and claiming negative net migration. AmericaFest is Turning Point USA's annual flagship conference drawing several thousand conservative activists; Vance's appearance continued the close relationship between the administration and the campus organizing network founded by Charlie Kirk, who had died three months earlier.
