This is sadly another gross example of unchecked corruption in Ohio. These legislators should be immediately investigated. Selling a $300M nursing home bailout bill is illegal—even in Ohio. This needs to end! https://t.co/llZtG9mv9A

Ten days later, Rep. Sara Carruthers received a $13,200 campaign contribution from the CEO of a chain of nursing homes, $13,200 from his business partner, and another $13,200 from the CEO’s wife.

"What’s amazing here is that the company has managed to get through these scandals with nary a slap on the wrist. Big power has big power—and people rightfully resent the piddling penalties against FirstEnergy." This isn't going away @GovMikeDeWine! 👀 https://t.co/swXpIZOLnA

Extremists are trying to intimidate @RepWeinstein. He’s a vet and a good guy, that won’t be intimidated. Show your support and visit his website to learn more about his work to protect democracy and help his community.
Really something to have to assure my worried 4 year old daughter that we would always keep her safe. I get that they are exercising their rights. But the point here was to intimidate.

Ohio has trended Republican under Trump, but the once conservative-leaning Hamilton County, home to Cincinnati (which had already bolted to the Democrats under Obama) is moving well in the opposite direction, thanks to a collapse in the GOP support in Cinci's suburbs.

.@kcadp and UNC Professor Frank Baumgartner are out today with an important report on the state of Kentucky's death penalty. The statistics confirm what we already knew to be true. Capital punishment in Kentucky is a total public policy failure.

Never underestimate the implacable & crazed rabidity with which the privileged will defend their power & position. It was ever thus, around the world. History teaches us that elites ALWAYS prefer burning down the world - to losing their clan privilege. https://t.co/iEUEdlfvzx

If people aren’t outraged by this fleecing of Ohioans & the lack of accountability for the execs & bad politicians that helped make this happen then they’re not paying attention…yet.
As of today, Ohioans have paid more than $170,000,000 for the HB 6 Bribery Scandal. That's $232,000 that you're still paying -- every. single. day. Enough. We're not paying for the GOP's corruption on the backs of hardworking Ohioans anymore. It's time for a new direction.

I never thought we would have politicians in this country attempting to set up Kremlin style elections. This is so dangerous and I don’t think people in power understand the danger we are facing. It’s hard to get a democracy back if you lose it

The gerrymandered Congressional map that just passed the state Senate is completely unacceptable. If the House also passes it, I’m calling on Gov. Mike DeWine to veto it and finally support a real, bipartisan process – the way voters intended.

I will savor this book. I have Hubbard paintings on the covers of two of my books; maybe someday I'll write a third that could be likewise improved by one of his paintings. He deserves to be better known, and this volume should help.
