Two weeks to seize the trifecta in Virginia….for all the ways you can help, go to the link:

Kansas. Michigan. About to be Virginia and New Jersey. Not only can Ohio elect a woman. But an Acton-Sherrod Brown ticket provides the perfect complement for ‘26.

The Democratic candidate for Governor in Ohio not only has the highest job approval rating in Ohio (+10), but a new poll by Bowling Green found her to have the highest net favorability (+5) of any Ohio public figure. Suggestion: try not to blow this rare opportunity.

New poll shows @amyactonoh.bsky.social with the highest net favorability of any Ohio public figure. Vivek is, of course, underwater.

OMG For everyone who wondered, "What now?" after yesterday's marches. Pepper has been slugging away for democracy in goddamn ohio for many years, and his advice is ESSENTIAL

Would you share secret info with Trump or Vance?

“what we now do with all that energy matters even more”

My speech at “No Kings” — “It’s Time To Surprise Them!”

No better person to share thoughts about the importance of today’s rallies and protests than @timothysnyder.bsky.social , an Ohio native. And it was an honor to join him as a speaker today.

“I was documented from Day 1. I did everything I was supposed to do. I have zero criminal record….Yet I was detained for 73 days….I guarantee I am not on the Epstein list.” - powerful words from Ayman Soliman

An incredible evening with workers and labor leaders from across Ohio. So much wisdom and inspiration tonight from @amyactonoh.bsky.social and @greglandsman.bsky.social

“Kids?” Young men, younger than these guys, are too often those engaged in mass shootings. And often, it’s fueled by the cesspool of hate, vitriol, dehumanization and violence these text chains captured.

I can’t remember ever seeing a bigger crowd in Clinton County. Why? There to see @amyactonoh campaigning for Governor. Thanks for the warm welcome!

Once again, Ohio lawmakers have been caught breaking the law… open.substack.com/pub/davidpep...

“After Brnovich, the final remaining usefulness of the Voting Rights Act involves a prohibition on racially discriminatory gerrymandering that the court has still found to be an enforceable part of Section 2. And that is why today’s case is so important.”

As both a doctor and a public servant, I will always fight to keep Ohioans safe. To see this highly contagious but entirely preventable disease spreading to our children is very concerning. abc6onyourside.com/news/local/m...

Amazing how on message MTG is. Run everywhere, and hammer on this message:

Read to the end… (I failed)

Take the quiz! I learned something this morning that really made me think.

This is a map of Kentucky’s bourbon trail. All the distilleries across the Commonwealth. Touring them is a big draw for tourists. But now, it’s also a map of Trump’s economic wreckage. Because his tariffs and ceaseless attacks on Canada are crushing bourbon exports.

Take the quiz and read to the end.

Share wide and far! (Make sure to read until the end of the thread.)

Wow, this is enlightening. Take the time to read the whole thread.

Would you have been allowed to vote in Alabama 60 years ago? Take this literacy test and see…

Worth your time.

A little history lesson for anyone interested

This thread is really worth reading! I had no clue about this, seems it should’ve been taught in one of my history courses. 🤔
