Vance has shown everyone that he was the right person to be Donald Trump’s VP. He’s been an incredible asset in the Trump administration.
And JD Vance has made a prediction that’s sending chills down the spines of Leftists.
Vance Champions Trump’s Immigration Strategy With Major Projection
In a compelling speech at an artificial intelligence summit in Washington, hosted by the All In Podcast and the Hill and Valley Forum, Vice President JD Vance passionately defended the Trump administration’s immigration policies. He projected a historic milestone, declaring that the United States is on the verge of achieving “net negative immigration” for the first time in decades.
Addressing conservative critics who argue the administration has fallen short on tackling illegal immigration, Vance acknowledged the legal and logistical hurdles in reaching the goal of 1 million deportations this year.
Yet, he emphasized the administration’s achievements by focusing on the “net number” of deportations. “In 2025 we will have the first net negative immigration number in about 50 or 60 years in the United States,” Vance declared, signaling a transformative shift.
He dismissed claims that the Biden administration recorded more deportations, calling them misleading. “That’s actually a completely fake statistic. It’s based on the fact that if you come into the country illegally, and then the Biden administration processes you and sends you out, that counts as a deportation,” he clarified.
Recent data supports his point: the New York Post reported that Border Patrol released zero illegal immigrants into the U.S. in May, compared to 62,000 crossings in the same month in 2024.
Critique of Corporate Visa Practices
Vance also turned his attention to corporate practices, criticizing tech giants like Microsoft for laying off thousands while seeking H1-B visas for foreign workers. These visas permit U.S. companies to hire skilled nonimmigrant workers for “specialty occupations,” with an annual cap of 65,000.
“You see some big tech companies where they’ll lay off 9,000 workers, and then they’ll apply for a bunch of overseas visas. And I sort of wonder; that doesn’t totally make sense to me,” Vance stated, likely referencing Microsoft’s recent cut of 9,000 jobs.
Expressing concern over the displacement of American workers, he added, “That displacement and that math worries me a bit. And what the president has said, he said very clearly: we want the very best and the brightest to make America their home. We want them to build great companies and so forth.”
He continued, “But I don’t want companies to fire 9,000 American workers and then to go and say, ‘We can’t find workers here in America.’ That’s a bulls*** story.”
Unconfirmed posts on X suggest Microsoft applied for more than 6,000 H1-B visas since October, following 9,491 approvals last year.
AI Investment and a Vision for the Future
Vance’s remarks come as the tech industry sees major developments. At a recent summit attended by President Trump, leading tech firms committed $90 billion to advance AI infrastructure in Pennsylvania.
The president also signed three executive orders last week to ease regulations and boost AI investment. During the signing, Trump stated, “We created the digital age, and now we are leading the world into the golden age.”
“With your help, that golden age will be built by American workers. It will be powered by American energy. It will be run on American technology, improved by American artificial intelligence.”
