Here’s your reminder that Jon Husted has taken 10x more money from an Epstein co-conspirator than any other sitting Senator. No wonder he voted against releasing the Epstein files.

MacFarlane: The Second Harvest Food Bank of North Central Ohio has got the same issue. Last year, they paid $50,000 for diesel to transport their food. Now, they’re paying $150,000 for the diesel to transport their food.

the horrific cornell gang rape case has me thinking about emma sulkowicz who alleged she was raped as a student at columbia in 2014 and never got any justice. it has me thinking about the physical and mental weight young women are forced to carry while their safety is subsumed by male potential.

It's very difficult for me to keep track of the names of every scumbag online, but I recognize this guy's name and pfp. What I find a little unsettling here is I hadn't logged him as in the like, "Would get along with Matt Walsh" bucket. This is monstrous behavior on a scale you don't often see.

There’s something to be said for how most of the political spectrum can unite around hounding some lesbians over niche drama in their spaces but huge segments of society are silent about pervasive campus rape impacting a huge population of primarily youngwomen

There were more men in a single documented gang rape at one school than the number of competitive trans athletes nationally. But I’ve heard a lot more politicians being asked about protecting girls from one of these scenarios and not another… I’ll let you guess which is which.

I don't love dunking on folks but it's so fucking funny to me that Trump was convicted of 34 felonies 2 years ago, faced no punishment, and went on to win the presidency a second time and journalists are still like, "hmm, I have an inkling that maybe he believes he's above the law for some reason."

Post from NYT reporter Eric Lipton

"What an odd moment in United States history.

A U.S. president is running an overtly political campaign advertisement, right before midterm elections, paid for by the U.S. government.

Trump appears to believe he is immune from any kind of legal limit."

Once again, one of the primary reasons we have arrived at this point (completely out-of-control & unconstitutional abuse of executive power to conduct wildly illegal foreign policy) is that no one, including the most senior people involved, went to jail for the rest of their lives for Iran-Contra.

“I endorse Truman Esmond because we have to write a better story, and it has to start now.” - Ron Marz Legendary writer of comic books, video games and more --- Comic book writers like @ronmarz.bsky.social shaped my core values and taught me one issue or perspective isn’t the whole story. Thank you!

“I wholeheartedly endorse Truman Esmond because we have to write a better story, and it has to start now.”
- Ron Marz
Legendary writer of comic books, video games and more
---
I’m a comic book guy. I’ve been into comics and cartoons, my whole life, Dungeons & Dragons and video games since they were invented (yes, I’m that old).

Phrases like:
“Knowledge is Power”
“With Power Comes Responsibility”
“For Truth and Justice!"
are burned into my mind and form core values.

The struggles of our heroes, hard choices, the often unsympathetic masses and media, the untold sacrifices, helped me understand that one view or one issue isn’t the whole story.

Do the right thing. Not for money. Not for fame.
For your neighborhood. Maybe for Earth, if you’re called.

Years ago I was able to provide a bit of tech help to Ron, and now, I’m proud to call Ron a friend, and his endorsement is a tremendous honor for me.

I hope to prove worthy of such praise and look forward to the triumphs and success stories I know we can deliver together, with creative, fun and collaborative local government.
With big visions, our community is our superpower!
Thanks so much Ron!!

Here’s Ron's full statement:
“I’m a storyteller. I see the world around us through a prism of story, of heroes and villains, of triumphs and tragedies. And right now, it feels like our stories are mostly tragedies, with far too many villains prospering and profiting.

We’re in a dark place, and in order to get back to the light, we need people like Truman Esmond to lead the way.

I’ve known Truman for a number of years now, first as a fan of my work, and then as a friend. So I know he’s exactly the sort of person Park County needs in this hour of need.

I wholeheartedly endorse Truman Esmond because we have to write a better story, and it has to start now."

Republicans don’t have a Nazi problem—they are the Nazi problem

A spate of recent revelations have shown the ideologies and their adherents are one and the same.
