In a rousing address at the Conservative Political Action Committee (CPAC) conference, Vice President JD Vance highlighted the Trump administration's early achievements in bolstering national security and economic growth. Speaking to a full house, Vance emphasized the administration's commitment to curbing illegal immigration, revitalizing American energy production, and reducing wasteful government spending through the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

Vance underscored the significant drop in illegal border crossings, attributing it to the administration's strengthened border policies. He reiterated the president's firm stance against criminal migrant groups, emphasizing their unwelcome presence in the United States. Following the recent designation of several such groups as foreign terrorist organizations, Vance declared an end to their "free ride."

On the economic front, the Vice President stressed the administration's focus on reigniting economic expansion and creating high-paying jobs. He championed a return to robust domestic energy production, echoing the popular "drill, baby, drill" slogan to enthusiastic applause from the audience.

Vance also took aim at what he described as frivolous government spending under the previous administration, citing examples of questionable projects funded with taxpayer dollars. He contrasted this with the Trump administration's commitment to fiscal responsibility and ensuring future generations can thrive in a secure and prosperous nation.

The Vice President's recent speech at the Munich Security Conference, where he advocated for stricter immigration policies and the protection of free speech, also drew significant attention and a standing ovation from the CPAC crowd. He urged European nations to follow President Trump's lead on these critical issues, emphasizing their importance for the future of Western civilization.
