On Jan. 20, JD Vance will be sworn-in as the next vice president of the United States. On Thursday, he announced his resignation from the U.S. Senate, effective at midnight Friday, Jan. 10. Vance was elected to the Senate in 2022 taking the seat previously held by Rob Portman. In a statement Vance wrote, “To the people of Ohio, I extend my heartfelt gratitude for the privilege of representing you in the United States Senate. When I was elected to this office, I promised to never forget where I came from, and I've made sure to live by that promise every single day.” Vance's resignation will mean that Gov. Mike DeWine will appoint a replacement. There's been no shortage of people interested in taking Vance's seat.

Trae Stephens is the co-founder and executive chairman of Anduril, and partner at Founder's Fund.  After fighting his way into Georgetown University, Trae began his career working in Congressman Rob Portman's office and at the Embassy of Afghanistan to the United States.  He went on to work at Palantir and then found defense tech juggernaut Anduril, which raised a $1.5B fundraising round at a $14B valuation this month. In this episode, Trae shares his unconventional journey from rural Ohio to Silicon Valley. Starting with his determination to attend Georgetown, Trae's career has been defined by a commitment to public service and innovation. While in college, his work at the Afghan embassy during its post-Taliban reopening provided early insights into the challenges of modernizing DOD protocols, discovering the need for a company like Palantir. Trae's move to Palantir marked his entry into tech, where he navigated the complexities of selling software to the government. This experience laid the groundwork for his co-founding of Anduril and his work as a partner at Founder's Fund. Trae discusses the importance of mission-driven work, the challenges of navigating government procurement, and his experiences rapidly scaling the new era of defense companies. His story is a testament to the impact of combining technological innovation with a deep sense of purpose. This episode is hosted by Jeff Phaneuf and Josh Pickering.   Full Bio: Trae is a Partner at Founders Fund. He is also Co-founder and Executive Chairman of Anduril Industries, a defense technology company focused on autonomous systems, and Co-founder of Sol, a next generation wearable e-reader. Previously, Trae was an early employee at Palantir Technologies, where he led teams focused on growth in the intelligence/defense space as well as international expansion, helping large organizations solve their hardest data analysis problems. He was also an integral part of the product team, leading the design and strategy for new product offerings. While at Palantir, Trae also served as an adjunct faculty member at Georgetown University. Prior to Palantir, Trae worked as a computational linguist building enterprise solutions to Arabic/Persian name matching and data enrichment within the United States Intelligence community. He began his career working in the office of then Congressman Rob Portman and in the Political Affairs Office at the Embassy of Afghanistan in Washington, D.C. immediately following the installation of Hamid Karzai's transitional government. Trae graduated from the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University.

Having President Trump's back is absolutely paramount. The Vance appointment raises huge questions. 98% negative response. How does he unify? He and Rob Portman are up to their neck in Ukrainian money. All the $$$ goes thru Vance's office. Where is it? This is how the Russia dossier was funded. Portman is in Ukraine more than the USA. What has Vance done as Senator? Absolutely nothing. Vance loves vaccines. Why not provide the banking documents. He needs to find the goods. Deals have been made. How is Vance good for America? Show us his record. The Ukrainian diaspora lives in Ohio and they love JD Vance. Big Mike tought him the law. His wife is already throwing up gates. A Senate seat is now open. How about Sen. Maras? Vance's befriending Don Jr. gives the media a field day. When you are in the spotlight, you better be ready for heat. There is NO WAY Trump thought this was a good idea. He did not look happy. If states have sovereignty, do we need a President? Vance speaks no foreign language and knows zip about international relations. Pour a tall cool glass of vinegar, trust your President and pray for our country.

Trump's Power Play: Backing Moreno in the High-Stakes Ohio GOP Showdown

In a much-anticipated redux of his political endeavors, Donald Trump, the 45th president, is revisiting the political canvas of Ohio, showing full support for his endorsed candidate in a highly competitive Republican primary. Not too long ago, Trump's endorsement worked wonders for JD Vance, leading him to a triumphant finish in the GOP primary. Bringing the spotlight back to the present, we find the former president, now the presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee, rallying his support behind businessman Bernie Moreno in the tumultuous Ohio GOP primary. Trump's journey to Ohio, planned for this weekend, follows closely after securing his nomination, just three days before the state's March 19 primary. The announcement of this rally, to be held in Dayton, Ohio, was made by Buckeye Values PAC, a group supporting Moreno. This stepping stone for Moreno's campaign trails just hours after an endorsement from two-term Ohio Governor Mike DeWine was gained by one of the candidates, state senator Matt Dolan. Joining Dolan is Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose, set to disrupt the primary. As the dynamics of the race shift, Dolan, once a top county prosecutor and assistant attorney general whose familial connections extend to owning Major League Baseball's Cleveland Guardians, bagged a significant endorsement. The backing from governor DeWine, and the recently retired Senator Rob Portman, who are recognized stalwarts of Ohio's Republican old guard, added a powerful thrust to Dolan's campaign. Governor DeWine's endorsement came wrapped with praise, accentuating Dolan's vision for the future, listening skills, fighting spirit and, importantly, his knack for securing results for Ohio. DeWine's belief extends to deeming Dolan as a potent Republican contender against incumbent Democrat Sherrod Brown in the upcoming November election.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
