J.D. Vance to announce Senate run this week

J.D. Vance— whose raw bestseller, "Hillbilly Elegy," helped elites process the Trump upset — plans to announce at a factory in Ohio this week that he's seeking the Republican nomination for Senate, sources tell me.

Driving the news: Vance's topissues will be the culture wars (including cancel culture, critical race theory and Big Tech), immigration and economic populism (with an emphasis on inflation).

  • Vance, who made a fundraising swing through D.C. last week, will join a crowded field trying to replace retiring Sen. Rob Portman (R).

Data: WHO; Chart: Naema Ahmed/Axios

Over the past several weeks, the coronavirus has killed Americans at six times the average rate in other rich countries. And we’re recording about 8 times more infections.

Why it matters: The virus burned through the rich world like wildfire in the spring, but this new data confirms that the U.S. is one of very few wealthy countries that has failed to suppress it since then.
