Is this the 7th or 8th time the Peace President attacked a foreign nation?

If you believe the US is spreading “freedom” with its B2 bombers… I’ve got some WMDs I’d love to sell you.
Merry Christmas. Grateful for the people and communities that call Ohio home. Wishing you a safe and joyful holiday.
Local elections are THIS TUESDAY! These races decide how our schools, streets & communities are run, local gov’t matters. You can still early vote Sunday 1–5pm Cuyahoga Co. Board of Elections, 2925 Euclid Ave, Cleveland #VoteLocal #Cleveland #Lakewood #CuyahogaCounty
This week Rep. Abdullahi and I testified on HB 489, to repeal Ohio’s anti-boycott law that chills free speech on campuses and beyond. No one should be forced to take a political stance to work with the state. Free speech isn’t partisan, it’s American. 🇺🇸 #Ohio #FreeSpeech #FirstAmendment #Students
Honored to receive @CAIROhio Champion of Justice Award with Rep. Abdullahi. Civil Rights leader Fannie Lou Hamer said it best: “Ain’t nobody free until everybody’s free.” Justice means standing up for everyone, & against genocide and oppression everywhere. #freepalesti̇ne 🇵🇸
NEW: Illinois Gov. Pritzker announced President Trump intends to federalize 300 state National Guard troops “in the coming hours" over objections from state and city leaders. We resolutely condemn this potential escalation. It's a power grab meant to intimidate and torment Chicago's communities.
I’m trying to repeal Ohio’s Israel Boycott ban. We shouldn’t have to swear alliance to any foreign nation to do business with the state.
Everyone deserves healthcare, everyone! We can’t fall for inhumane lies that deny care based on immigration, work status, or income. We have the resources, no one should be excluded. Healthcare is a human right. Refuse to let them strip people of their humanity.
Pope Leo XIV weighed in on U.S. politics, saying Catholic politicians must be judged on the full range of their policy positions and suggesting the country's immigration policy is "inhuman."

Extortion is his MO. Trump’s $100,000 fee on every H-1B visa isn’t about fairness or jobs… it’s a shakedown. It tells the world’s best and brightest: pay up or stay out. That’s how you weaken America, not strengthen it.
🇺🇸 Today is Constitution Day. The Constitution is a promise that “We the People” are the authors of our government. Let’s honor it by protecting rights, expanding justice, and building a more perfect union together.
Thank you, Rep. Sean Brennan, @twrader.bsky.social for bill protecting Ohio water & soil from toxic, radioactive gas and oil wastewater brine. Kudos to @buckeyeenviro.bsky.social for work on this issue! bit.ly/3JVuF13 @ssteingraber1.bsky.social @sarahedon.bsky.social @sustainableytown.bsky.social

Alongside Rep. Sean Brennan, I introduced legislation to finally ban radioactive oil and gas brine from being spread on Ohio roads. These so-called “de-icers” are loaded with radium and heavy metals, putting our health, our waterways, and our communities at risk.
As leaders, we cannot afford to stay silent. Our own humanity is at stake. open.substack.com/pub/tristanr...

This pisses me off!! DeWine is sending Ohio Guard to D.C. for a manufactured crisis — political theater, not public safety!!

Sales taxes are regressive, so I’m happy we can get a little break from these taxes, even just briefly — makes life a little more affordable.
