Did Erika Kirk take Air Force 2 to Ole Miss Turning Point USA event? Here's the truth

In early November, a rumor spread online that Erika Kirk flew aboard Air Force Two with U.S. Vice President JD Vance to an event at the University of Mississippi. The claim was shared along with a baseless rumor alleging a romantic relationship between the two.

According to the official White House pool report for the vice president's trip to Ole Miss, Vance traveled with his wife and two U.S. senators. Photographs from that day likewise showed Vance boarding and disembarking the plane with his wife — not with Kirk. Reporting fellow Aleksandra Wrona broke down what else we know about the trip.
