ProPublica | J.D. Vance Speaks at a Private Teneo Network Event, Sept. 2021 @ProPublica | Uploaded July 2024 | Updated October 2024, 15 hours ago.
J.D. Vance gives a speech called “Challenges at Home” at a September 2021 gathering of the Teneo Network, an invitation-only group of young conservatives that counts elected officials, pro athletes, financial executives and media figures among its members. Vance joined Teneo six years ago. ProPublica and Documented obtained a video recording of his 30-minute speech and question-and-answer session, which has not been previously reported.
Vance’s speech lays out what he sees as the “big problems” facing the United States and what the conservative movement should do to address them.
According to tax records, the Teneo Network’s chairman is Leonard Leo, the legal activist who built a pipeline of lawyers who interpret the Constitution based on the “original intent” of the framers or the meaning of the words in the text when they were written. One of the most influential conservatives of the past three decades, Leo helped confirm all six conservative justices currently serving on the U.S. Supreme Court. Leo-aligned judges have pushed to restrict abortion rights and rein in the government’s power to regulate corporations.
