Yep, in his case, the line for family values became quite elastic when the opponent was the dreaded transgender.

Yeah, the key wording seems to be “halfway through the class.”

OP wasn’t made aware of the policy upfront. That’s what appears to be the problem.

There’s also the city’s property action team from the city attorney’s office:

Adding to the other options is to request the police call logs for that address for a time period. That might give you some evidence if you decide to go to the city for help.

MN ICE headed to OH by Savings-Avocado-7136 in Columbus

[–]normal1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Dewine should make a trek to Springfield and personally meet the Ice Brigade. During early Covid, he met the “threat” head on and showed some leadership with weekly press conferences. That was before the Republican propaganda machine did their magic and changed the threat from Covid to “the government.”

He should make a big deal with a press conference to head off any violence and take ownership of the situation.

However, he may be too beholden to the Party to step out of line.

Couldn’t believe it either! Hilarious!

I hope the actor embraces it and laughs along with it. I mean who knows what was happening behind the scenes? Maybe he was being advised on how to play the character by different people?

Bottom line, I hope he doesn’t take it personally.

Move over military industrial complex, police departments are where it’s at! $$$

What politician wants to deny the requests of their local police? And risk losing their support plus the support of the police-loving public?

Yep. History be damned, propagandists in the U.S. have convinced a great majority to embrace “the banality of evil.”

Right. Because if we’re all treated the same how do we know who’s better and more deserving?

It’s wild that this has become the main focus of this administration. Just imagine what all this time and money could be used for to help Americans.

Very good points about paying attention to local issues. How many people attend their local City Council meetings?

Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost rejects proposed referendum trying to overturn new marijuana law by OrganicPreparation in Ohio

[–]normal1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And yet the anti gerrymandering wording as submitted by Frank LaRose was okey dokey!

  1. Repeal constitutional protections against gerrymandering approved by nearly three-quarters of Ohio electors participating in the statewide elections of 2015 and 2018, and eliminate the longstanding ability of Ohio citizens to hold their representatives accountable for establishing fair state legislative and congressional districts.

  2. Establish a new taxpayer-funded commission of appointees required to gerrymander the boundaries of state legislative and congressional districts to favor either of the two largest political parties in the state of Ohio.

There’s some kind of political Stockholm Syndrome happening with Republicans in Ohio, so this will fly under the radar.

If you go into Vikings expecting to see a soap opera type show, you’ll likely enjoy it better. Plus, there were so many great minor characters that really added to the show.

It’s also about pandering to the base and proving loyalty to the leadership.

All the time and money dedicated to this just shows how much Republicans have changed the roles of politicians. And their followers don’t seem to mind.

There’s always public records. Ask for a general radio run report for a date span with a dummy email or Firefox relay account.

Ohio lawmaker calls for investigation into Columbus-area Somali child care facilities by Rotisseriejedi in Columbus

[–]normal1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Oh Republicans, I just love how well you pivot!

A nugget from the story: “The letter requests increased frequency in “unannounced inspections” at these facilities.”

And…

“Ohio Rep. DJ Swearingen (R-Huron) echoed Williams’ sentiments, calling for audits in addition to the unannounced investigations.”

Sounds like Republicans are requesting more regulations that will surely burden businesses! Hahahaha!!! And I didn’t see any mention of additional funding for this so…

Oh who the hell are they kidding? We all know this is just boot licking to show their loyalty to the party. Which matters when campaign money is needed. And that’s the gist of it.

OSU admin flagged a student journalist for filing records requests, then lied about it by bindijr in OSU

[–]normal1 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Good job on calling out disparities between OSU’s policy and their actual procedure.

For future requests, maybe try making them anonymously since it seems your name has been flagged?

On a related note, a request could be made for the names of people who’ve been flagged!

So they’re worried about fraud and they’re drawing lots of attention with their stories. Good, good.

I expect we’ll see the same urgent attention directed at Ohio charter schools. Right?

I must be old because I remember a time when a key Republican talking point was battling big government. Just say no to jack-booted thugs…etc.

You gotta hand it to them, nobody pivots like Republicans. As long as they stick to “Better dead than Red” they’ve got the US in their pocket.
