The Vice President of the United States — a man theoretically responsible for being one heartbeat away from running the free world — has announced a new memoir. It’s called Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith. It comes out in June. It’s 304 pages. He wrote it while in office.
Let’s start with the title. Communion. As in the ritual where Catholics consume the body and blood of Jesus Christ. The man is naming his political positioning document after eating Jesus. We respect the commitment to the bit.
The book chronicles Vance’s spiritual journey: raised Christian, became an atheist, converted to Catholicism in 2019. Which means in the span of a few years, JD Vance went from “God isn’t real” to “actually, God is real AND I eat him on Sundays.” That’s a journey. That’s a whole thing.
This is, obviously, a 2028 presidential campaign launch in book form. The playbook is older than the Eucharist itself: write faith memoir, hit the speaking circuit, run for president. We’ve seen this movie. We know how it ends.
What we haven’t seen before is a sitting Vice President publishing a book while actively in office, while the country is at war with Iran, while eight million people just marched in the streets. But sure. 304 pages about finding Jesus. Totally normal. Carry on.
The sighting is confirmed: Jesus has appeared in the political memoir of the Vice President of the United States. Again.
We did not make this up. CNN and Euronews have the receipts.
