Ohio

I'm sorry to all the trans people who live in Ohio and might visit here that have to deal with our shitty politicians.

From the article: The new law will require K-12 and college students at public and private schools to use bathrooms and locker rooms that match their sex assigned at birth. It also bans multi-occupancy gender neutral restrooms and prevents transgender students from sharing overnight accommodations with peers of the same gender.

Summary

Masked neo-Nazis marched through Columbus, Ohio’s Short North neighborhood on Saturday, displaying swastika flags and making racist and antisemitic statements.

Police are investigating, and no arrests have been reported.

Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and Columbus officials condemned the display, emphasizing that hate and bigotry have no place in the state.

The incident follows a similar demonstration in Michigan last week, where masked protesters displayed Nazi flags outside a performance of The Diary of Anne Frank.

After nearly 2 decades of Sherrod Brown representing Ohio in the Senate, Republicans have successfully bucked him from the seat.

Wow what a win! What do you hope he accomplishes in the first 90 days? What are you most excited for?

Edit- please don't downvote if you don't like him just move on. This is the state's reality, he's going to be writing and signing policies on our behalf.

Of interest is that Coy was out on bond, which was revoked after the guilty verdict. The FOP and the defense lawyer both think that it's unreasonable for an officer to know a suspect has a weapon before shooting them.

Hey all, you might see some flyers from a socialist group who were originally working with Cincinnati Socialists about a planned event on 9/28. Cincy socialists canceled their event per the wishes of the Haitian community. The Haitian community has asked for no demonstrations for the month of September and they do not support this event stating that any planned action against the wishes of the Haitian community is to be viewed as actions of colonizers.

The Black Panthers have been told not to demonstrate as well as other groups (we had a very large demonstration planned and we canceled per the Haitian community’s wishes), but this group is choosing selfish needs over solidarity and inflicting their addenda on people who do not want it.

I didn't censor this, it was posted by them after Vance called them white supremacists.

I do weekly baking challenges and decided to do Cincinnati chili since it's not a true regional delicacy unkess people argue about it anytime it is brought up. My friends have lived here in NW Ohio for 3 years and mever tried Skyline, so i brought it over to them. I forgot the oyster crackers, and they were hesitant to put the full mountain of cheese, but over all they enjoyed it.

Fuck

Article:

The sheriff of an Ohio county recently asked his followers on Facebook to keep track of people in their neighborhoods who are openly supporting Vice President Kamala Harris's presidential campaign.

Local news station WKYC reported that Portage County Sheriff Bruce D. Zuchowski told his followers to "write down" the addresses of people who put Harris-Walz signs in their front lawns so that he could drop off any undocumented immigrants at their residences.

"When people ask me... What's gonna happen if the Flip - Flopping, Laughing Hyena Wins??" Zuchowski, who took office in 2021, wrote on Facebook. "I say... write down all the addresses of the people who had her signs in their yards! Sooo... when the Illegal human 'Locust' (which she supports!) Need places to live...We'll already have the addresses of their New families...who supported their arrival!"

WKYC reached out to Zuchowski to ask him questions about his Facebook post but he had not responded as of Monday morning.

Although Donald Trump won Portage County in 2020, recent election data suggests that there are tens of thousands of likely Harris voters living there.

According to the county's official tally, Trump received 45,990 votes in the county, while President Joe Biden received 35,661 votes there.

These people and public officials are pretty petty.
