Vice President Visits Iowa, Ohio and Oklahoma to Boost GOP Midterms

Des Moines, Iowa, USAWed May 06 2026
The Vice President traveled from Washington to three states on one busy day. He started early, voting in Ohio’s Republican primary next to his house. Then he met donors for a lunch in Oklahoma City. He finished the day with a rally in Des Moines, Iowa. He spoke to about 500 people at a factory that belongs to Republican Rep. Zach Dunn. He said the big question for voters is not about policy details but who will fight for them in Washington. He accused the Democratic Party of focusing too much on illegal immigration and fraud, saying they ignore ordinary citizens. The Vice President praised former President Trump’s trade rules that protect local manufacturing. He also highlighted tax cuts and anti‑fraud work led by his task force. He compared the task to “fishing in a barrel with dynamite, ” saying it reveals new fraud each week.
He mentioned the U. S. –Israel conflict and its effect on oil prices. He called it a “blip” in the Middle East and expressed sympathy for families who lost loved ones. He said he would feel scared if his young son joined the military. During his trip, he also supported GOP candidates in Ohio. He voted for Gov. candidate Vivek Ramaswamy and praised Senator Jon Husted. He used his platform to raise two million dollars for national Republican campaigns in Oklahoma. The day’s events show the Vice President acting like a campaign manager, trying to keep Republicans in control of the House and Senate. His message is simple: choose a leader who fights for ordinary people, not one that raises taxes or supports illegal immigration.
