The beauty of Ohio is that it ranks near the top of the nation in library usage, Mountain Dew consumption, and per capita Taco Bells, and it has one of the best hospitals in the country, the Cleveland Clinic. Vivek is a scammer who threatens to destroy our state as we know it. Vote Amy Acton!
Trump’s net approval has plunged to a new all-time low of -20.6% on Nate Silver’s site! America is ready to turn the page.
I finally have a new apartment! I moved in Sunday after having to evacuate my old apartment (along with every other resident) several weeks ago after the roof partially collapsed.
Excellent article in the Globe and Mail (subscription required) addressing the unfair treatment by the IRCC of members of the Acadian diaspora seeking citizenship: www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/art...

Canada sent firefighters to help with the 2025 California forest fires, and a Canadian firefighter died just this month fighting fires in Colorado. So now that Canada is battling fires, what does Trump do? Impose tariffs. Utterly shameful.
The Republican coverup of McConnell's death is a criminal conspiracy.
Conservatism weaponizes discomfort with social progress to persuade workers to vote against their economic self-interest.
Trump, who tried to overthrow the 2020 election, will tell self-serving lies tonight.
The Trump diarrhea outbreak continues with no end in sight. Conservatives voted for this.
Lindsey Graham had countless chances to do the right thing, and now his only legacy will be shame.
Inflation is still high, the Strait of Hormuz is still closed, and the Epstein files are still being covered up.
I was rooting for the US, Canada, and Cape Verde. Now I root for Haaland!
Thanks to Trump, the USMNT took to the pitch knowing the world was rooting against them.
Celebrating the Fourth of July by visiting the homestead of my ancestor Jacob Coy, a Revolutionary War veteran and immigrant. Our diversity is our strength!
Mamdani is supremely competent, fundamentally decent, and refreshingly authentic. He's offering a glimpse of what America could be if it turns the page and elects Democrats.
As a non-Catholic Midwesterner, I approve: "Pope Leo XIV’s trainer at a Roman gym remembers two things about his client: he was stronger than he looked, and he couldn’t stop saying thank you. Any Midwesterner in America would recognize the type instantly." (christopherjhale on Threads)
Elon paved the way for American fascism and caused the deaths of some of the world's most vulnerable people (including kids) via aid cuts, and for what? Bragging rights about his net worth reaching a round number?
Child-starver Elon Musk is deep in his feelings because a TV show made fun of him.
The performative machismo of the manosphere is incredibly corny--a bunch of grifters and weirdo narcissists trying to build a cult following of lost boys. I absolutely love lifting weights and watching feats of strength, but the manosphere is rooted in something entirely different.
Trump siphoning off $1.776 billion of taxpayer money to pay Jan 6 insurrectionists is obscene.
I've lost track of how many times Trump has fallen asleep in public. I'd be shocked if it's less than twenty.
Mamdani balancing NYC's budget proves yet again that Democrats are better for the economy.
The stock market opens back up tomorrow. Isn't it time for Trump's weekly lie about a "breakthrough" in talks with Iran? In the meantime, enjoy your $5 gas, Republicans!
American conservatism is led by power-hungry weirdos who want to drag us back to the pre-civil rights era.
Just voted for Dr. Amy Acton and Sherrod Brown in the Ohio primary!
Sebastian Sawe just became the first runner to break the 2-hour barrier in an official competition!
