Comments on killing of Renee Good and immunity of ICE
Will someone please add to this article the information about his comments on ICE agents having “absolute immunity”? This was in my opinion one of the most irresponsible statements ever made by a modern American politician, and definitely warrants mention in this article.

Under Vice presidency (2025-present) section, at the end of the paragraph, there’s a line starting with: In February 2026, Vance became the first sitting U.S. vice president to visit Armenia, where he met with Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan to advance a U.S.-brokered deal aimed...
If you click the referenced article it actually says the visit is for economic purposes: signing an agreement to push forward negotiations on a civil nuclear energy deal, and Vance said the U.S. was ready to export advanced computer chips and surveillance drones to Armenia, and invest in the country’s infrastructure.
I think it would be accurate to rephrase it as:
In February 2026, Vance became the first sitting U.S. vice president to visit Armenia, where he met with Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan to negotiate a civil nuclear energy deal, export advanced computer chips and surveillance drones to Armenia, and invest in the country’s infrastructure.

is that the real image? I have seen so many joke images I don’t think that this is the actual image of Vance. Uhhbnj (talk) 15:58, 27 February 2026 (UTC)

No Irish ancestry
Irish sources confirm Vance has no Irish ancestry at all. ~2026-15114-66 (talk) 13:20, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- And those unnamed "Irish sources" (which you say contradict the citations in the article) are where? WP:PROVEIT. BBQboffingrill me 16:55, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- The article only provides sources from Vance. He is of English and Scottish descent, not Irish. ~2026-93797-9 (talk) 06:51, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
