Vice President JD Vance went to Athens, Georgia, on Tuesday night to rally young conservatives at a Turning Point USA event, but the evening quickly became less about campus outreach and more about the widening war inside MAGA world. Before Vance took the stage, Erika Kirk, the widow of slain Turning Point founder Charlie Kirk and now the group's chief executive, canceled her appearance.
Vance told the crowd she had received threats serious enough that organizers briefly considered scrapping the event altogether. Candace Owens, who has spent months attacking Kirk online, responded by accusing her of lying.
