Ohio Manufacturers’ spent months challenging exaggerated assumptions behind electricity demand forecasts that raise our bills. PJM’s Asim Haque called the OMA “naive.” While chairing the PUCO, he approved a utility charge that ultimately cost customers $456 M. OH Supreme Court struck it down. Geez

You're not imagining it: Your kid's school supplies cost more this year
From lunchboxes to No. 2 pencils, the prices are skyrocketing. Here's how much.

Callahan, the middle white guy, in 2018, while working for Trump's Treasury Department: www.politico.com/story/2018/0...
What is a trend going on in the U.S. or abroad that doesn’t get enough attention? “The hostility to free speech on some college campuses is alarming and antithetical to liberal education. I think it deserves more notice.”

How is the Trump presidency going? “As I see it, the results speak for themselves: once-in-a-generation tax reform, first-rate judicial nominees, and a new regulatory climate that is more conducive to economic growth and job creation – to name a few major accomplishments.”

This meme is actually based on a real scientific finding. Researchers studying howler monkeys found that males with larger vocal organs producing deeper, more powerful calls tended to have smaller testes, while species with larger testes tended to have less-developed vocal organs. So, there ya go.

Senate Bill 341 would have raised the legal minimum marriage age to 18 with no exceptions—a commonsense safeguard to protect vulnerable young people from this sort of exploitation and abuse. Instead of standing with Ohio's children, Vivek’s second in command stalled the bill.
