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.

“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.

“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.”

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.
