Dear MAGA: 20261013 ❀ DePat Tuesday ❀ Open Topic | Did Amy Acton Help Light the Federal Fires of COVID Doomerism?

This DePat Tuesday Open Thread honors the author of the original Tuesday open thread on this site, namely the late Susie Sampson, a.k.a. Deplorable Patriot, among her other handles, pen names, etc.

For more on the untimely passing of Dear DePat, please see these three posts.

DEAR MAGA: Open Thread 20250123 ❀ In Highest Honor of Susie Sampson, Known to MAGA as Deplorable Patriot
Health Friday Open Thread 1.24.2025: In Memoriam Mira Persona, Susan P. Sampson (Deplorable Patriot)
DEAR MAGA: Open Thread 20250128 ❀ Call for Authors ❀ Scientific Opinions on the Medical Case of Susie Sampson

At one time, DePat handled FOUR daily open threads here, in addition to taking care of her relatives, choir duties, and numerous other responsibilities. She was a powerhouse – a dynamo – a true force of nature.

DePat’s faith in Trump, Q, “The Plan”, the White Hats, and “the anons” in general, was legendary. Although I didn’t always agree with her quick acceptance of some sketchier evidence and fringier theories, I will gladly admit to “coming around” to numerous so-called “conspiracy theories” which she championed first. I was always careful to give her credit for being right, too, when I had been wrong.

It is impossible to overstate how much DePat did for not only this site, but for her country. I urge all to say a quick prayer of thanks, whenever you think of her, for the privilege of knowing, in life or after death, such an exemplary human being, and lover of God.

And thank you, Susie, for the firm foundation which you left us, when you were called to your true home!

Did Amy Acton Help Light the Federal Fires of COVID Doomerism?

TL;DR –

In my opinion, the answer is yes, and I suspect that you will find the full answer fascinating.

Everybody in Ohio knows that Amy Acton – DOCTOR Amy Acton – a.k.a. “Lockdown Amy” – is why Ohio locked down for COVID, and why so many of Ohio’s local restaurants and other businesses closed down, never to return.

But what most people don’t know, is that Amy also apparently had a role in influencing the White House to join the party to “flatten the curve”.

Don’t take my word for it – take the word of Amy Acton’s own staff members, as I will explain in detail, below.

Background

I recently posted about a couple of Amy Acton videos, and how they were evidence of “two Amy Actons” – (1) the real one, who talks like a drunk and curls up on a fetal position on the floor of the restroom – and (2) the imaginary one created by her staff and party – the one who is competent, the heroine of the COVID years, and has zero issues.

Dear MAGA: 20260924 ✾ TRUST THE PLAN ✾ Thursday Open Topic | Dr. Amy Acton, Queen of Cringe

As I noted in that post, both videos are a bit tragic.

In the first video, by the New York Times, we see some of the cringiest left-wing media propaganda ever. It’s like an ad for Kamala’s Best Nutritious Word Salad – made in California. Yes – Amy Acton sounds like Kamala’s lost sister. The vocal similarity is uncanny, and I would not be surprised if white wine coolers are to Plame. Blame. Whatever.

Not to say that the CIA is definitely involved here, but Acton was clearly being made a heroine for adopting the left’s favorite captured agency’s COVID panic control script, while authentically heroic character seems a bit lacking.

Here’s the video.

https://www.nytimes.com/video/opinion/100000007111965/coronavirus-ohio-amy-acton.html

If you watched the whole thing, congratulations. I was repeatedly cringing out, every time I tried to watch.

The second video is a lot more fun. Amy Acton is quite lovable in it, but in a way that makes her absolutely unfit for higher office. I can’t tell if she’s tipsy, floating on Xanax, or just high on her 15 minutes of fame, but there is no way such a woman can be allowed into the Ohio Statehouse as anything but a tourist, or perhaps as a mom testifying on an educational issue, where a courage drink or two is socially acceptable for first-time speakers, as long as they have a designated driver.

What’s most interesting, however, is that the TRANSCRIPT doesn’t match the video at all. And while it’s not really a problem that Amy’s staff chose not to document her rambling, emotional, and sometimes incoherent, group-hug psychobabble, what IS interesting is what they released in its place.

Tell me if this doesn’t sound like Amy Acton single-handedly saved America from COVID-infected J6-er kidnappers, and was personally responsible for Trump choosing to follow her advice to BE A HERO, locking down and flattening the curve!

https://scholarlycommons.law.case.edu/healthmatrix/vol34/iss1/3

Yes – according to Amy Acton’s aides and handlers, SHE was responsible for Trump doing the right thing on COVID.

In the midst of several pages of breathless, Barnes & Noble-grade COVID doomerist “historical fiction”, this paragraph appears…..

During the last week of February, as the stock market crashed for
the second time, I was at the White House as a Health Department
Director representing the entire Midwest for the Association of State
and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO). Mick Mulvaney, the
President’s Chief of Staff, and some of the best people who have served
multiple presidents were in attendance. One bioterrorism expert was
literally shaking. But they were still not talking about the disease on
the news. Even though I had taught global health for years, I Googled
the word “pandemic.” I could not understand why we were not using
the word. We went around the room, and each person gave their best
virology and epidemiology advice. When it was my turn, most had been
said, but I was struck by what was not being said to the country. Just
like everyone else, I was longing to hear the hard truth. So I told Mr.
Mulvaney, “Please tell the President that this is the higher angel’s
moment. The people need to hear from him.” This is that FDR,
Winston Churchill moment where communication is vital, and my gut
sense was that we really needed the President to make meaning out of
all we were facing. To help us bear the shared sacrifices, we needed
someone to lead the war. Only this time, the entire world was on the
same side.

UGH!!!

Some of that account may be a bit self-serving, but the point is, THIS was a moment when both COVID doomerism and “the opportunity for heroic response” were pushed on POTUS, and yes – Amy Acton was there, helping it happen.

Dramatically or not. Sober or not.

Now, I wasn’t ready to believe this statement without at least a wee bit of validation – so I chose to find out what Mick Mulvaney might have to say about that era now. And he does indeed have a lot to say.

It seems clear to me that Mulvaney fell for what most of us fell for – the possibility that we were dealing with something comparable to SARS, MERS, Ebola, and all that jazz. That we were dealing with an exotic “coronavirus” with double-digit mortality in young adults – NOT with something that had a very normal flu-like mortality curve – like all influenza-like illnesses, including the known, endemic, human coronaviruses.

Once the real numbers came out – once I saw those real numbers in public – it should have been over – but the Democrats just kept pretending, to the power-enthralled audience of their captured states and institutions.

Amy never corrected herself on this error. Trump, Vivek, and even I did. Some sooner than others.

SO – does Ohio REALLY want to elect this ditzy, pretending, overly dramatic broad to be governor? “Lockdown Amy” Acton?

PLEASE. Let’s be serious here.

Dear MAGA: 20260924 ✾ TRUST THE PLAN ✾ Thursday Open Topic | Dr. Amy Acton, Queen of Cringe

Sometimes you have to have faith.

Yes, Virginia, there is a Plan!

We have created this site as a place for people to openly express their thoughts and opinions. This is a place where honest but civil discussion of all topics is encouraged. This particular thread is – for the moment – TRUST THE PLAN Thursday. You are welcome to say what you think, in a civil and courteous manner that loves your neighbor. Free speech matters! Courteous speech makes it happen.

Please label all AI-generated content as being such, unless it is patently obvious (e.g., humorous AI images). It is important that we as individuals not begin to pretend that socially derived artificial intelligence is actually our own, as this form of stealthy social information averaging and feedback would be one more pretense and deception between people, in service of stupid Marxist socialism, and of those who wish to substitute their communally protected lies for actual truth.

You are you. AI is AI. Keep your identity. Don’t “Borg Out” on us!

And yes, it’s THURSDAY…again.

That was stolen from Wheatie.

Let’s steal her rules, too.

  • No food fights.
  • No running with scissors.
  • If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

Other rules may be derivable from these, and that conjecture is left for discussion.

Pontifications

Dr. Amy Acton, Queen of Cringe

Amy Acton seems like an enigma – until you realize that there are two Amy Actons.

One of them is the real Amy Acton. Who I will call Real Amy Acton. She’s likable, but in a ditzy, scatter-brained, and often cringey way. There is absolutely no way that this person should have been a Director of Health. She could never, ever, be the governor of a state.

The other Amy Acton – who I will call Imaginary Amy Acton – is a mirage – a creation. She’s not very likable, but she is competent. She obeys Democrat policy, because she is the creation of professional Democrats. On paper, she sounds quite different from the real Amy Acton, because she’s not the real Amy Acton. She’s like a Soviet consensus on what Amy Acton is supposed to think and believe.

It’s no wonder the Democrats in Ohio are not allowing either Amy Acton to debate Vivek Ramaswamy.

I would like to show you some select insights into this lady, that will help you understand.

Let’s start with a recent X post by Dr. Acton – or Lockdown Amy as she is known, that I find both attractive and a bit out of touch. This is Real Amy Acton.

Let’s look at those selfies more closely.

At first glance, I really liked these images. She’s like a neighbor, going out and eating at some restaurant and posting a tweet about it. That’s very real. It’s very likable. If she wasn’t running for office, I’d think “Hey! That’s Amy Acton, that doctor lady from Columbus!”

I find it interesting that there’s nobody around, and I think that says a lot about her campaign. I think the Democrats may not be thinking she can win, or even planning on winning. I think perhaps they’re grooming her for head of HHS, or CDC, or something like that, should the Demon Donkeys ever get back in the White House.

Next point – while I think it’s awesome that Dr. Acton is having a MONSTROUS steak (I have not had one like that in years), I don’t see that image as being politically wise right now – unless she’s desperate for some carnivore crossover votes that she’s surely not going to get, IMO. Indeed, that picture drew lots of criticism on her timeline, although it’s hard to know how much of that criticism is real, and how much is just AI bots going after her. I see the “same but opposite” on all the GOP timelines.

But what is Imaginary Dr. Amy Acton like?

Well, politically, there are some problems.

Ohio here is what Amy Acton will not tell us out loud.

Amy Acton supports:

⯈Abortion ( even up to 9 months )
⯈Sanctuary cities
⯈Illegal invaders
⯈Entitlements for illegals
⯈Higher taxes to pay for entitlements to illegals
⯈Cuts in police
⯈Shutting Ohio down
⯈Forcing more vaccines on Ohioans ( especially children)
⯈Not allowing ICE to operate in Ohio
⯈Allowing lunatic liberal protesters to take over Ohio cities

Amy Acton is running on two things. Brown man is bad. ( Which is racist ) and she will somehow make things less expensive ( for generational entitlement freeloaders ).

She is 100% for socialism not free choice.

NO VOTE AMY ACTON

SO – yeah – Imaginary Amy Acton – the one who would actually be in charge of Ohio – is pretty left-wing, despite some serious efforts to pass her off as moderate right now.

I started looking more deeply into Acton’s background, especially back in her “COVID czarina” days, and what I found is both laughable and disturbing.

Two videos. The first was the New York Slimes singing her praises in early 2020, as the “pandemic” was just getting started. Here is the thumbnail (not an active video).

OMG, it is SO CRINGE! SO VERY CRINGE!!!

You get Real Amy Acton talking, but you get the Times pretending they are talking to Imaginary Amy Acton. This is how they sell one to the public, to install the other in office.

Amy Acton even SOUNDS like Kamala Harris. Just listen.

https://www.nytimes.com/video/opinion/100000007111965/coronavirus-ohio-amy-acton.html

Amy Acton has been a PROJECT of the left from day one. But now, after the fall of both COVID communism and Kamala Harris, Real Amy Acton is clearly not fit for the job. She was never fit for her earlier job, either.

But it gets worse. Much worse.

Imagine CRINGE SQUARED.

Imagine a video of an event CELEBRATING the first video.

Imagine an event – a lecture given by Real Dr. Acton – celebrating Imaginary Dr. Acton’s “success” as the popularly evicted COVID czarina.

Imagine Amy at her absolute CRINGIEST, WOKEST, and DIZZIEST. Yes. She’s ten times more out to lunch than in any modern video.

Yes, it’s THAT BAD. Although it is fun and entertaining, like talking to a tipsy female doctor in a bar.

I kid you not.

There is a “transcript” which is actually an essay derived from the second video. The essay is clearly a re-write of Real Amy Acton’s speech by somebody else, to make her sound like Imaginary Amy Acton. It’s hard to tell that they’re even related.

https://scholarlycommons.law.case.edu/healthmatrix/vol34/iss1/3

Both of these videos are mind-boggling reminders of just how psychotic the COVID years were. And Amy Acton – both of them – was fully riding along with all that dubious psychosis. All the psychosis that was dubious then, and is horrifying now.

These videos are gold mines of cringey error, bad science, dictatorial hubris, talking down to the public, cargo-cult hero-worship, wishful remembrance, and all the rest. I hope to give both videos their own threads in the future, before the election, but you are welcome to dig in now.

So what’s the verdict?

Real Amy Acton may be a nice person and a good neighbor. Stripped of her goofy politics, she seems like a very typical, very likable, Ohio mom. Real Amy’s a bit more entertaining than most, either because of (1) alcohol, (2) xanax, or (3) naturally dizzy mentality. Provided that Real Amy Acton doesn’t drive drunk, she would be welcome in almost any neighborhood in Ohio. She does not strike me as a bad person.

But that is not why we have governors. We have governors to make difficult choices correctly – to do the right things, and to not do the wrong things. And Real Amy Acton is NOT governor material.

But neither is Imaginary Amy Acton – the competent leftist.

Imaginary Amy Acton is what we would get – and it would be even worse than those brutal COVID days.

We have to get that word out. Ohio doesn’t need the trouble it would have, if Amy Acton – any version of her – was Governor.

Wolf’s Report on Political Brawling in Ohio

The attack ads are flying everywhere now.

At first it was mostly Democrats attacking Republicans, but now it’s the other way around.

TRANS is being exploited as an issue, far more than I would have expected.

Here’s another one.

The comments are awesome – people realize what Sherrod Brown’s voting record actually is.

Here was my comment.

IMO it’s the PAC ads that are most effective. Some of them are truly devastating.

In contrast, the Dem ads against John Husted and Vivek try to paint them as corrupt, but IMO people just aren’t buying it, and the ads are far from convincing.

Speaking of Vivek, his opponent, Lockdown Amy, is getting cringer and cringer.

Mehek Cooke is a GOP activist who once ran for office for something, and IMO was cheated out of a win, but found her true calling as a party person rather than a candidate.

UGH!!!

But it gets worse. Lots worse.

🚨THIS is the woman asking Ohio to hand her the keys to the governor’s office? NO WAY!

Amy Acton gets onstage and this is the performance Ohio voters are supposed to look at and think, “Yep, that’s who I want running the state”?

Watch the video. Make up your own mind.

But here’s what I want to see next: put her on a debate stage with Vivek Ramaswamy.

2 candidates standing across from each other answering for what they believe and what they plan to do with Ohio.

If Amy Acton wants the job, she should be willing to make her case directly to the people she wants to govern.

🔥Ohio deserves the debate.
Let’s see it.

I can tell you – this woman will not do well in a debate, other than getting all the sympathy votes.

And some later breaking news – Husted is looking GREAT in his videos, directly attacking Sherrod Brown’s record, while Sherrod Brown is trying to excuse his way out of his TRANS votes.

Vivek is also firing confidently back at Lockdown Amy.

And now they’re going after Sherrod Brown for being too weak to stand up to the socialists. TRUTH!!!

Things are heating up, but the GOP is doing pretty well, IMO.

Lockdown Jussie, Princess of the Wine Women

Perhaps you’ve been following the laughable story of an “attack” on Ohio Democrat gubernatorial candidate and former failed COVID czarina Dr. Amy Acton.

If not, then consider the following video to be your TL;DR!

But seriously…..

Who is this woman? This “Dr. Amy Acton” who is running as the Democrat candidate for Governor of Ohio?

Dr. Acton inexplicably served as GOP Governor Mike DeWine’s Director of Health until she tried to become Ohio’s Fauci, at which point she was blocked and opposed by everybody in the state who could possibly stop her (particularly the House and Senate), until she “resigned” – thus saving Ohio from following New York and California into the Flaming Dumpster of COVID Communism. Ohioans prayed for Mike DeWine to take two Growacet and fire Dr. Acton. Well, he allowed her to resign, and she did! Good enough!

The fact that Ohio Dems have been reduced to the sad state of offering this lady for Governor shows just how badly they’ve been beaten over the past decade.

For the last year or so, Dr. Acton – or Lockdown Amy as we sensible people love to call her – has been perpetually ahead of her GOP opponent, Vivek Ramaswamy, by ONE POINT – at least according to Mr. Ramaswamy (hereafter just “Vivek”). Personally, I never believed it. Not only was the permanence of the number mathematically impossible in the real world – the fact that Vivek never, ever, pulled ahead of her was clearly bogus, given that – no matter how “unlikable” Vivek may be to the Vivek haters, Amy Acton is even more unpopular in Ohio.

No – in my unofficial and skeptical opinion, Vivek LIKES being one point behind Lockdown Amy – probably because of something called “donations”. Just my theory.

Now I must admit as part of “full disclosure” that I have always found Dr. Acton pleasant to look at (better than the AI above), and rather non-threatening – notably in contrast to her status as a super-villain in the Buckeye State. She seems like a rather typical “science bimbo” – smart, but not particularly sharp, happy, a bit ditzy or dizzy, take your pick, and “looks good in a lab coat”. I suppose some might call that description sexist, but they would be wrong. There are men like Dr. Acton, who women in science see in almost exactly the same way, and nobody calls those women sexist, so I demand exactly the same treatment. Or, to put it another way, “Piss off, you hypocritical, woke AWFULs – who by and large look terrible in lab coats.”

Just sayin’.

Now, recently, I started getting text messages that Vivek was actually ONE POINT AHEAD of Lockdown Amy, as if this was some kind of Earth-shattering news, but in any case, it was supposedly because of this that it was absolutely necessary to donate even more money to Vivek. Admittedly, I wasn’t sure if I should believe this poll result either, despite it seeming entirely reasonable, because the whole thing seemed, as most high-school drama always seems, “weak, fake, and gay” – to use a currently popular expression.

But even if this was somehow true, I felt like there was some chance the Democrats would have to respond in some way, and that worried me.

Why is that? – You might probably should ask.

You see, while we don’t have much actual terrorism and really hardcore political violence in Ohio, we do have a lot of dirty tricks, sabotage, stolen signs, misrepresentations, hoaxes, lies, and machine shenanigans. Helping a non-machine political opponent screw up in a self-defeating way is basically a way of life for both the Democrat and Republican machines in Ohio.

Thus, as soon as I heard the news that Vivek was making some statement about political violence, I knew we were now in the full season of Ohio politics, and I was probably going to have to interpret the inscrutable for the benefit and understanding of the incredulous.

Consider a couple of past instances of my “translation” of Ohio political dirty tricks for the understanding of non-Ohioans.

Pesky Wolf Throws Radioactive Tin Foil on the Democrat Nuclear Reactor Hoax in Columbus, Ohio

Lazy Days and Nights – POL Garbageman Reporting from COHVID District 12

Understanding WHY Dems do things requires context – and when you find the context, it all makes sense.

SO – back to the present – what actually happened?

The original media description was that an armed man with two guns entered the tent where Dr. Acton was speaking, rushed past the guards, knocked over a bunch of people, and finally “lunged” at Dr. Acton. Only to be stopped by the Highway Patrol.

But even that description wasn’t enough for some in the media.

I was immediately skeptical, and within 24 hours, the skeptics were everywhere. And being proven right.

Let’s see that full tweet…..

No drawn weapons. No reaching the candidate. No felony threat charges. Just misdemeanors and a sheriff who said the apparent intent was “to ask her a couple of questions. He was just, you know, pretty aggressive about it.”

Yet the framing feeds the endless “Republicans are violent extremists” machine, especially convenient in a tight Ohio governor’s race.

When actual political violence hits our side, like our president facing two assassination attempts or our top strategist and influencer actually getting assassinated, the same outlets soft-pedal or pivot to “gun violence.” Here, a fairground disorderly becomes proof of “MAGA terror.”

The simple facts are that on September 6 at the Canfield Fair, Patrick Havas pushed through a crowd while holding up his phone… appearing to record or ask a question. He knocked over a couple of older attendees likely due to the wet grass and uneven ground they were standing on.

Security stopped him as he approached Amy Acton to ask his question. He was legally in possession of firearms, but never drew or brandished them.

Charges: disorderly conduct and two misdemeanor assaults. The sheriff himself said the apparent intent was “to ask her a couple of questions. He was just, you know, pretty aggressive about it.” Acton was unharmed.

That’s the police version… a rude, disorderly rush that caused minor bystander injuries when elderly people lost balance and fell over.

The Acton campaign and left-leaning media immediately rewrote it.

Campaign statement: “an armed individual lunged at Dr. Acton, injuring multiple people.” Then the pivot to “This kind of violence has no place in Ohio… chaos, hate and vitriol.”

CNN, Reuters, the Guardian orbit, and Democratic influencers ran with “lunged,” “attacked,” “assailant,” and “attempted violence.”

They rushed to note Havas is a registered Republican and that his brother had donated to Vivek Ramaswamy, turning a phone-wielding shove into a right-wing hit job

They left remains in power through their ability to run 24/7 propaganda on the American people. It must stop

Here’s another take, that – like me – suspects that there is more going on than just mischaracterization.

Here’s the ‘violence’ in Ohio…

A dude was told to force his way through the crowd to create a scene…then when he knocked people over security ‘caught’ him, and disarmed him to display guns (here) then gave him a seat to watch the inebriated @amyactonoh
do her best impressions of @KamalaHarris and @HillaryClinton

in summary, it’s fake and was staged…

I thought I was going to have to explain this theory to everybody, but no – the MAGA crowd is now fully trained to spot this shit.

It’s now gone fully national with coverage in Revolver News…..

Amy Acton’s ‘ATTACK’ story crumbles: Prosecutor says armed man never even got near her…

LINK: https://revolver.news/2026/09/amy-actons-attack-story-crumbles-prosecutor-says-armed-man-never-even-got-near-her/

So – what is really going on here?

For starters, as soon as I heard this was happening near Youngstown, in Mahoning County, I was shaking my head.

That area is the home of one of the most interesting polyethnic white mafias in America. Admittedly, the Youngstown mafia has almost turned into a nursing home poker game at this point, but I knew a local, back in my working days, who was pretty connected, and he swore that the corruption was still present and hanging on by its yellowing fingernails.

LINK: https://www.mahoningmatters.com/news/local/article260970262.html

SO – whenever I hear about sketchiness in Mahoning County, it’s not a surprise. And Amy Acton campaigning there? Not a surprise, either. She’s apparently FROM that area.

I was quite suspicious from the start that this involved “somebody up to no good, but probably not assassination” – and that is where I’m still at now.

There are LOTS of FAKE NEWS posts on X stating that the “perp” – Patrick Havas, is “confirmed” to be either a top Ohio GOP insider / operative, or a dangerous DSA member. Both strike me as unlikely, and Newsweek didn’t find either one.

Here is what they did find.

Current voter records reviewed by Newsweek show Havas is not registered with a political party, though he voted in a GOP primary in 2016.

Havas’ voter registration was updated on November 7, 2023, according to the Mahoning County voter records that Newsweek reviewed. The records show he voted in general elections in 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2024.

Havas is a licensed nurse, according to records reviewed by Newsweek.

He was arrested on charges of disorderly conduct and petty theft in 2008, but the theft charge was dismissed after he pleaded no contest to disorderly conduct, according to court records reviewed by Newsweek. Havas was accused in that case of stealing three movies—The Untouchables, Full Metal Jacket and Casino Royale—from a Giant Eagle supermarket. He was handed a 30 day jail sentence that was suspended.

Havas was also fined for traffic offenses in 2008 and 2011.

LINK: https://www.newsweek.com/who-is-patrick-havas-suspect-accused-of-targeting-amy-acton-12410781

This man Havas strikes me as a typical borderline hood or hooligan – maybe a blowhard – but not even rising to the level of minion or thug. And yet, exactly the kind of personality who would bully his way into a meeting and not bother to ask if it was OK to take videos. The kind of guy who wouldn’t exercise the basic level of common-sense judgment to stow his firearm before entering a political event.

There is reported to be solid timeline evidence that people watching Amy Acton live at the time were calling her out online as being drunk. Actually drunk or not, I am betting that Havas was at the fair, heard about Amy Acton being (allegedly) drunk, realized he could get viral video of the same, and hatched a stupid, Darwin Award plan to “take her down”. Carrying heat legally, but into a political event, tells me that he was likely not engaging in a smart, planned takedown, ALTHOUGH he would have been on shakier ground, legally, if he had come into the tent earlier, unarmed, and taken video surreptitiously after being ASKED not to film.

IF he was doing this as a planned operation, it was pretty ingenious, because the net effect is to tell the entire country a sad truth – that Dr. Amy Acton is not only a leftist “wine woman” like Kamala Harris – she’s a THROWER.

And thus, we are led to MY reading of what has really happened here.

Not a massive conspiracy by the left to “Jussify” Lockdown Amy.

Not a massive conspiracy by the right to expose Wine Woman Amy.

Just some Ohio dude, dreaming bigly of his 15 minutes of internet clout and national fame, hoping he arrived in time for a viral video of Wine Woman Amy, drunk and disorderly at the fair.

And then dem Dems do what dem Dems is ALWAYS gonna do. Never let a crisis go to waste.

Welcome to Ohio politics!

Young Washington

I haven’t done a movie review in a while, so it’s a pleasure to begin with, but it’s an even greater pleasure, as you will see.

I’m going to do this review in multiple stages, each one getting more revealing. When things reach a spoiler level you find regrettable, just stop – go see the movie – and be done with it.

1. TL;DR with No Details

Go see the movie.

2. TL;DR with Spoilerless Details

Go see the movie.

The fact that both my wife and I enjoyed it, despite a vast difference in our knowledge of that period of American history, tells me that you are likely to enjoy it, too.

In my opinion, it was well-directed, well-acted, well-scripted, and all that jazz, but at an even deeper level, it was insightful into the forces that made Washington the man who he was – perhaps the most honorable founder of this nation.

While being absolutely free of wokeness, the movie still has elements of revelation that will honestly tug at the heartstrings of all Americans, liberal and conservative. Even the British will love this, IMO. It is an honest depiction of that era, not only showing me the history I had read about fairly recently, but confirming, to my satisfaction, some of my theories about the build-up to the American Revolution. Thus, I think all those interested in history, will find this movie fascinating and enjoyable.

I must caution, however, that the realism extends to battle scenes. Indeed, the complete absence of phony and gratuitous violence makes the remaining realistic, momentary violence even more haunting and powerful. However, I think you will agree, once you see the movie, that it was necessary to show us the things that truly created an actual hero and military genius.

At the end of the film, our audience was too stunned to rise – and then – when I thought that the credits were going to roll, there was something more. That is necessary, too. People literally need a moment to come back to this century. It’s that powerful.

I repeat – go see the movie.

3. Review with Some Minor Spoilers

I am still uncertain whether I enjoyed this movie as much as I did, because I already knew the surprising history of Young Washington, or in spite of knowing that history. For me, it helps to know more, because I love details. It is a tribute to the movie that those who made it were able to weave an amazing amount of historical teaching into the screenplay. However, even if you are not familiar with the French and Indian War, and the history of the Ohio Territory, then you should not feel compelled to prepare for the movie. Just go see it and have fun. See it again if you miss a few things.

Let me just list some of the wonderful things you can expect to see.

  • Washington’s loyalty to friends, and respect for enemies
  • His resolve to let failure ALWAYS teach and NEVER demoralize
  • His family’s morality and wisdom, and how these reached their pinnacle in that family’s least likely member
  • The weaving together of the dying of empires and the birth of nations
  • How Washington was a TITAN, just like Trump, Musk, the Signers, and the great explorers
  • How Washington was utterly enthralled by the American frontier
  • How Washington loved both the elite and the common man, and was at ease with both
  • How every failure in life was the lesson he needed to reach the next level
  • How technology is something we must deal with, but how it is NOT what defines us, or makes men great
  • How surprisingly SMART the medicine of Washington’s time was, despite technological limitations
  • How similar these people were to us, and how foolish we are to criticize them from the safety THEY gave us
  • Love scenes that are easily as good as cinema classics – effective in their restraint

One last point, which shocks me even more, after the movie.

I have had the privilege of knowing several centenarians. Let’s call one of them “Peggy”. Well, 250 years is only two and a half “peggies” ago. Think how little time that is – and yet – yes – that is when America was founded. Take an old person you know – take one more before her – and her mother – and there is George Washington.

Jesus walked 20 peggies ago. It’s NOTHING.

You need to see Young Washington, to understand the predicament we are in. Forget that you might enjoy it. You NEED to see it.

WE are still dealing with Britain. Britain is still dealing with US. This is the slap in the face that says “Did you read what Gail just posted?”

Go see it. Please. For everybody’s sake.

4. Review with Blunt Spoilers

Part of the reason I wanted to see Young Washington, is that I had seen a trailer for it at a previous movie, and it struck me as surprisingly good. But I was very lucky – I had forgotten everything in the trailer, by the time I saw the movie!

Thus, I don’t know whether it’s a good idea to show you this very “spoilery” trailer. You may just want to stop now, and resume here AFTER you see the movie. You may want to experience the full surprise.

If so, then “see you later!”

W

OK – so you’re going to see the trailer now.

It really does convey the excitement of the movie – but without the build-up scenes that make it even more exciting. And perhaps that’s a good thing – because you’ll bring some extra doses of any needed blood pressure or cardiac medicines with you!

I found myself on the edge of my seat for most of the movie, from the very beginning. I found that my adrenaline really kicked in. Maybe it’s because I don’t get out and watch much “fake entertainment” anymore, but for whatever reason, I got a real workout watching this – even just the trailer, and even now!

I found the acting really good – particularly William Franklyn-Miller (young adult George Washington) and Mia Rodgers (love interest Sally Cary). The British society scenes are actually rather enjoyable, and more than just a diversion from the action – they really help to explain why revolution was inevitable.

Truthfully, the rest of the cast were really good, too. The older, famous actors all do a great job of portraying famous and important people, as one might expect, and the younger actors all do an excellent job of portraying Washington’s peers.

The battle scenes are gritty, and remind me of many of the better war movies that I’ve seen, which is rather surprising for a smaller movie of this budget. Even the Wikipedia accounts of the battles are violent enough to make one cringe, and the movie neither backs off from the history, nor embellishes. Much of this frontier violence was alluded to in Mel Gibson’s “The Patriot” – well, here you get to see it. This teaser shows it well, though significantly tamer than the movie itself.

I think that there is a visible improvement in the editing from the teaser to the trailer, and whatever it cost, it was worth the money.

Pay special attention to the names of everybody when they’re introduced – it makes things easier. Also, when the lighting is bad in the taverns and whatnot, you need to listen closely. Getting old is a pain in the ass – even just watching movies.

The movie is not perfect – there are a few cliche scenes that fail to impress, and I can see spots here and there which could stand some polishing. None of these would stop me from seeing the film. They are certainly not enough to make me regret buying tickets.

I suspect that few careers will be launched by the success of this movie, and that’s a good thing. There will also be many more movies from this studio, too.

Good.

In summary, I heartily recommend seeing “Young Washington”. There is supposedly a sequel coming, and I will definitely be interested in that. If the cast and crew work as hard as they did here, and with God’s providence, it should be a success, too.

A Fantastic Analysis of TRANS, Democrats, and Sovietism, Which is Tied to the Ohio Governor’s Race

Note what the Dems are doing with Amy Acton. They are pretending to stand up to the PROGZIS, but they can’t be trusted to really do it, IMO. They got the progzis to shut up in this case. Why? How? What deals were made?

Cunning.

Transgenderism is an uncontrolled society-scaled experiment in conformity and obedience: a test of how far you can make people parrot absurdities, inflict cruelties, collude with unrealities, and ostracize and punish people for things they do not themselves believe.

It is a test of whether the moral self-abasements and routine betrayals that occurred in the Soviet Bloc with its secret police and political prisons and armies of informants could be replicated in liberal, democratic, and pluralistic societies that lacked this formal apparatus of repression: whether minor rewards and punishments could force people to punish people for stating the most self-evident of all truths and inspire them to cheer on the chemical castration and dismemberment of their own children. It is a test of whether civil liberties organization could be twisted into instruments of state repression and human rights groups instruments of defamation and violence against women.

It is a test that most of the Western world is failing.

Quoting:

Full text:

I think we would be surprised at how many people would quietly start to come out in support, if they were given “permission” by the public figures they rely on to open Overton Windows for them. That is pathetic, cowardly, lazy, & self-interested, because they are often consumed with how they appear to the people around them, rather than forming their own opinions & standing by their own beliefs, but it is the reality of many of our fellow citizens. If they feel they have “permission” to support initiatives that protect the rights & dignity of females, I think the minority of vocal, unreasonable & zealous lunatics who’ve pushed this madness on us would start be increasingly marginalized, finding themselves with less power to shape the public discourse & public consciousness over the trans issue. I have myself experienced a few people who quietly, discreetly told me they agree with me that women & girls should have their own sports & spaces, but they would never tell other people. It was only after I experienced social punishment for expressing my opinions that they briefly mumbled they “kind of agreed.”
People are cowards. They are afraid to form & stand by their own beliefs because they value social standing more than personal autonomy & the integrity that comes with being principled; more comfortable instead with social consensus & being included in the group. But, if the conversation shifts publicly, lead by people who are safer to express public opinions, the tide will change.

Quoting:

Full text:

A Democrat running for governor of Ohio has declared “I do not support boys playing in girls sports. This is already settled law in Ohio, and as governor I will enforce and uphold the law.”

The way for Democrats to neutralize the trans issue is to co-opt GOP positions on sports, private spaces, child transition, and compelled speech, supporting the removal of gender ideology instruction from schools, bans on child transition, and the removal of recognition of gender identity in law at every level of state, local, and federal government.

Everybody wants to think there is some other way. But there is no other way.

Dear MAGA: 20260507 ✾ Thank God ± Theistic Evolution ∈ Thursday Open Topic

This man, making Christmas calls from the White House, believes the world is a sphere. And he has even flown around it! So has our beautiful FLOTUS, who happens to be his wife!

Truth and common sense must be valued by us, as individuals, in order to lastingly disempower the authoritarian fake news media. This includes the perniciously smarmy science media, which never answers for its errors and lies. I believe that the media has been responsible not only for leftist pathologies like scientism, medical fascism, and radical gender ideology, but also for reactionary movements like modern flat Earth, rejection of all medicine, and Biblical geological literalism.

Just as Wheatie’s Stormwatch Monday Open Thread was created as a place for people to openly express their thoughts and opinions, so, too, is this Thank God Thursday Open Thread, where honest but civil discussion of all topics is encouraged. This thread is also to be known as Theistic Evolution Thursdays, due to the author’s expected “pontification” about his scientific, religious, and political opinions. You are welcome to pontificate back! Free speech matters!

Please label all AI-generated content as being such, unless it is patently obvious (e.g., humorous AI images). It is important that we as individuals not begin to pretend that socially derived artificial intelligence is actually our own, as this form of stealthy social information averaging and feedback would be one more pretense and deception between people, in service of stupid Marxist socialism, and of those who wish to substitute their communally protected lies for actual truth.

The source of alleged truth matters, not for the truth itself, but for validation.

And yes, it’s THURSDAY…again.

And that’s it. We’re done stealing from Wheatie.

OK – maybe her rules need to be posted.

  • No food fights.

  • If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

Other rules may be derivable from these, and that conjecture is left for discussion.

Thoughts On The 2026 Ohio Primary Election Results

TL;DR – they were great!

Just stopping in briefly to talk about this important result. I wish I could spend more time on this, but I have to get back to work.

This primary was important for both Trump and Vivek – and for me. We MUST defeat Lockdown Amy and Proggy Pepper. Ohio is SCREWED if these socialists win. They probably cannot win, but we cannot let down our guard.

Yes, Ramaswamy is “polished” to the level of being “Ratha-smarmy”. But he also has “the stuff” – and I mean the stuff that a certain President has even more of.

His Wikipedia page is very interesting, and has some surprises.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vivek_Ramaswamy

Here is Vivek’s victory speech queued up to the brief introductions.

Now, in more detail, the result.

Kalbo brought this tweet on Wednesday….

This was, at a national level, a great demonstration of the TRUMP EFFECT.

Notice that the same thing happened in other states.

https://twitter.com/FFT1776/status/2051865487609323823

Yeah, Indiana is demonstrably Trump Country. And so is Ohio.

Back to Ohio.

What the media and the Dems were hoping for, was any sign of weakness on Vivek’s part. The Dems are desperate to get Sherrod Brown back into the US Senate, and their next goal after that, is to get Lockdown Amy and the man who would be the REAL governor, Democrat Party Chairman David Pepper, into the statehouse.

https://actonforgovernor.com/dr-amy-acton-selects-david-pepper-as-lt-governor-running-mate

Vivek’s “Republican” opponent, Casey Putsch, shouldn’t have even been on the ballot, much less getting 15% of the vote, and in a sane world, he would have gotten NADA, ZILCH, NOTHING. However, the Democrat media has done every bit of heavy lifting possible, to take an anti-Trump, anti-Israel, anti-everything non-pol who had zero experience with the Republican party, who could never even win a school board seat in a safe district, and give him the media coverage needed to make him “credible” – while at the same time, social media bots have used the Epstein, Fuentes, Bondi, and Palestine Genocide strategies to boost him with as many MTG-type MAGA as they could.

AND YET – Vivek beat Putsch far worse than any other machine pick beat an anti-machine upstart in recent Ohio history. Bottom line, IMO – Vivek is a stronger candidate than ANY Ohio Republican governor candidate in decades, including Kasich and DeWine. There is a reason that the Machine picked him.

Note that Vivek is using the same machine staffing strategy that the Dems are using. Acton picked David Pepper as her Lieutenant, because he’s actually capable of putting together a strong [socialist, Demmunist] administration FAST. Well, Vivek picked the Ohio Senate President, Rob McColley, as HIS Lieutenant. This wise move tells me that Vivek is not only serious about transforming Ohio – he is actually capable of transforming Ohio.

Trump knew exactly what he was doing when he backed Vivek.

I think the following pair of tweets explains why Vivek is going to beat Lockdown Amy. I won’t explain it too well, because I don’t want to help the Demmunists, but this says it all.

If you only looked at X, you’d think the Republican Party rejected Vivek Ramaswamy. Groypers screaming. Doomposts everywhere. But reality just dropped: Vivek wins with 86% of the vote. Online is not real life. The real Republican Party isn’t racist. We don’t care about skin color. We want visionary leaders who fight for America First — bold, smart, unapologetic. Vivek delivered. And the same thing is coming for Byron Donalds. The Groypers don’t own this party. We do. Real voters. Real results. Real future. #AmericaFirst #Vivek2026 #ByronDonalds”

And the response…..

The screech owls here have to be ignored because they’re working for the enemy. Vivek was another reason I voted for Trump. Especially after the town hall in Springfield Ohio. He is engaging and brilliant. He will be president someday and is a star for the Republicans.

And with that, I will get back to work! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

W

PS – if you want to understand just how BAD Casey Putsch was, just read this tweet. I don’t agree with Forney’s full take on Vivek, but he nukes all the nukeables of the “Retard Right”!

Casey Putsch has been defeated in a humiliating landslide.

It’s not even close. Vivek Ramasmarmy buried Putsch by 70 points.

We need to talk about the Retard Right and why they fail. It pains me to say this as I like Casey and believe he had genuinely good ideas that would have economically revitalized Ohio, such as his infrastructure plans. But he failed for a reason, and unless people understand the reason, this will just happen over and over.

1) Don’t attack Trump.

The image of Casey Putsch burning his MAGA hat doomed him right out of the gate. I don’t care how disappointed you are with Trump, how many blackpills that Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes have fed you. Donald Trump IS the Republican Party. He runs the show. You need his blessing or at least his neutrality to get anywhere.

The majority of Republicans—the people Casey needed to win over—support Trump. There is no constituency for being Based and Anti-Trump, it’s a less popular position than Liz Cheneyism. Casey Putsch could have cleared this up with an immediate apology: “I was wrong to turn on Trump. I have my problems with him, but I believe in what he’s doing. I’m running to support his MAGA agenda and help him finish the job.” Pride, foolishness, or Internet poisoning kept him from humbling himself. Even Thomas Massie has had to pivot his campaign to lying about how he’s best buddies with Trump, because his actual connections with the Squad etc. are electoral poison in Kentucky. Just trust Trump! It’s not that hard!

2) Get off social media.

Vivek Ramasmarmy is an incredibly weak candidate, off-putting in person, has a deep contempt for white Americans, and wants to flood Ohio with Indians. He should be as easy to knock over as a feather in the wind. Vivek practically wrote Putsch’s campaign messaging for him.

So what did Casey do? Did he hit the streets, post ads telling Ohioans that Vivek hates them and wants to replace them? That should have been the front and center of everything he did. No. Instead, he kept posting about how AI told him that Israel is Satanic. He kept wading into the Epstein files swamp. He went to Anti-Semitic Fyre Fest and shared the stage with a fat anchor baby and a Muslim hijabi, both of whom openly hate white Americans, destroying any credibility he had in attacking Vivek for his anti-white views.

Social media is not real life. The heady days of 2016 or even 2024 are over. As
@Freedomalternat
pointed out in his post-mortem on the Hungarian election, Twitter and other social media sites are so overrun with bots and AI slop that they do not represent public opinion anymore. Stunting on the hoes online cannot help, it can only hurt. Ed Gallrein is already using Anti-Semitic Fyre Fest clips to attack Thomas Massie. Vivek himself realized how damaging his X posts were to his political ambitions, so he got off social media to focus on retail campaigning. This is why he won.

3) Stop talking about the Jews.

Israel, pro- or anti-, is not an important issue for the kinds of voters you need to win a Republican primary. They want to hear about jobs, inflation, crime; meat and potato issues. Not only that, a governor’s ability to influence Israel, Iran etc. is fuck all.

Mouthing off about how much you hate Israel cannot help in a Republican primary. Again, it can only hurt, because you look like a deranged moron to the people who actually vote and you take away valuable space that could be used for important issues, issues where you shine. Casey Putsch SHOULD be known for his anti-immigration stance and his ambitious plans to revamp Ohio’s infrastructure. Instead, he’s known for palling around with hijabis and treating ChatGPT like an anti-Semitic magic eight-ball.

Before anyone responds with “Casey Putsch is an idiot influencer, of COURSE he was gonna lose,” I have two words: Brandon Herrera. Herrera, like Putsch, is a YouTuber. Unlike Putsch, Herrera won his primary and is almost certainly going to be elected to the House. What’s the difference? Herrera didn’t “campaign” by camping out on Twitter to stunt on them Jewish hoes. He hit the campaign trail, made friends and allies in local GOP organizations, focused his messaging on how he wanted to help his constituents and what he planned to do in office. Herrera also didn’t turn on Trump and now he has Trump’s endorsement. Learn from Brandon Herrera.

I feel confident in predicting that this is the beginning of the end for the Retard Right. Thomas Massie, James Fishback, Dan Bilzerian will all lose their primaries and the retarded anti-Zionist element will be purged from the right forever. It has no constituency, as Casey Putsch’s landslide defeat shows. Candace Owens is already talking about joining forces with the left to form some kind of Anti-Zionist Popular Front. Nick Fuentes has said that he is a “moderate Democrat.” The Retard Right are functional leftists in the process of becoming actual leftists. And the best part is that they ruined themselves by not knowing when to shut up.

Election 2023 – The Final Stretch

Ohio Issue 1 is definitive. This is the ultimate groomer amendment, backed by the commies, begging to be added to the state’s constitution.

I will be doing what I can, which is never enough, to help defeat this monstrosity.

The choice is stark.

If this passes, parents will lose control of their kids FROM BIRTH – if the babies even make it that far.

I won’t be here on The Q Tree most of the time, during this home stretch, but I invite ALL OF YOU to bring the ammunition here. Bring the news about EVIL Issue One!

Word of The Week:

Brix

unit of measurement

Degrees Brix (symbol °Bx) is a measure of the dissolved solids in a liquid, and is commonly used to measure dissolved sugar content of an aqueous solution. One degree Brix is 1 gram of sucrose in 100 grams of solution and represents the strength of the solution as percentage by mass. If the solution contains dissolved solids other than pure sucrose, then the °Bx only approximates the dissolved solid content. For example, when one adds equal amounts of salt and sugar to equal amounts of water, the degrees of refraction (BRIX) of the salt solution rises faster than the sugar solution. The °Bx is traditionally used in the wine, sugar, carbonated beverage, fruit juice, fresh produce, maple syrup and honey industries. The °Bx is also used for measuring the concentration of a cutting fluid mixed in water for metalworking processes.

In the course of our political work, I’ve come into contact with an interesting assortment of people representing a wide variety of political interests. There is often some “adjacency” and “intersectionality” as the other side loves to say, and in particular we run into specific candidates, issues or causes which matter to our group.

You may or may not have been following the August “Issue 1” vote in Ohio, which was designed to make it harder to amend the Ohio constitution – meaning a 60% vote for passage of amendments instead of just 50%. The proposal had other features that weakened it, but the main factor leading to its defeat was the fact that the Ohio Dems had an abortion amendment coming in November, and that amendment was unlikely to get 60%+ support. The Demmunists got out the vote to defeat fundamental improvement of the Ohio constitution, using abortion. It worked like crazy.

The new abortion amendment is likely to pass in November, ironically as “Issue 1”, but worried Dem operatives have confided that the proposal has two weaknesses which give them a bad feeling. Some have even called these two problems “poison pills” in the amendment.

One is that the amendment leaves open the option for abortion due to “mental health of the mother” until birth, despite otherwise making abortion restrictable once the baby is viable (which is not well-defined). Pro-life forces can usually get voters out to the polls on this.

The other weakness is that the amendment implicitly removes parental rights regarding one’s own children, because the “reproductive rights” are granted to “individuals”, not adults. The term “individuals” is designed to include teens, and even logically includes younger children. So the right-to-life people are focused on the problem of abortion without the consent of the parents. This is also something that can bring pro-life voters to the polls.

But THESE are not the worst aspects of the bill.

The part of the amendment which grants this right to all individuals, which necessarily includes children of unspecified age, covers not just abortion, but anything of a reproductive nature. The amendment uses specific language to say that it is not limited to the examples listed, which include abortion and fertility, but which curiously do not include sex change or “gender affirming care” – and yet these things and more would clearly be covered as reproductive.

In other words, this amendment is a sneaky way to take away all parental rights regarding sex change of children – or indeed, anything else touching on reproduction.

I repeat – this amendment allows children to submit themselves to “gender change”, and takes away all parental rights to oppose it.

The amendment MAY even take away parental rights regarding sex education, or anything where the “individual” has “reproductive rights”.

Do you see what they’re doing here?

The amendment uses tricky lawfare wording to distract and deceive voters, implying that it is mainly about abortion, when it is dangerously relevant to transgender issues.

An overt sexual rights amendment for children could never pass, but an abortion amendment might.

It’s very interesting to note that Ballotpedia very deceptively HIDES the sneaky “not limited to” wording of the amendment in their description of it, except when they are forced to quote the amendment verbatim.

Et tu, Ballotpedia?

The Dems are getting ahead of the storm on the REAL sneakiness by making sure the controversy is all about Republicans changing the term “fetus” to “unborn child” on the text of the ballot issue, which generally clarifies the abortion part without changing the meaning in any significant way, in my opinion. Thankfully, the Republicans did NOT try to conceal the “not limited to” part, so we can still make that case without contradiction.

Very typical Dem behavior – distract to a smaller, winnable controversy. And, of course, the leftist media is helping. And very typical RINO idiot behavior, following the left’s laser pointer focus on minor stupidity instead of WINNING on the fact that this is exactly what the Democrats call it: Ohio Issue 1, Right to Make Reproductive Decisions Including Abortion Initiative. The trick is, this amendment should really be called Ohio Issue 1, Children’s Right to Make Reproductive Decisions Including But Not Limited To Abortion, Sex Education, Gender Reassignment, and Sex with Adults Initiative.

Are you seeing how bad this is, and how stupid the Republicans are?

They should be printing up yard signs in big bold letters:

SAY NO TO CHILDREN’S SEXUAL RIGHTS AMENDMENT

This bill for an amendment, if it passes, will destroy public education in Ohio. [Admittedly, some conservatives are actually rubbing their hands in glee at this possibility!] Teacher’s unions will be utterly free to “trans your kids” and even more, under the color of an “individual’s reproductive rights”. Whether the bill destroys education completely depends on whether private schooling can lock out transgender ideologues from their teaching staff. Nobody can trust left-wing teachers once this passes.

So watch out for this CHILDREN’S SEXUAL RIGHTS AMENDMENT – which is definitely a DEMS CAN TRANS YOUR KIDS AMENDMENT – and see if the national conservative media catches on to its insidious nature RE spreading the trans agenda to red states using abortion. If they don’t, Ohio will join Michigan and California as a “fleeing resident” state starting next year.

Note how the “pro-choice” side and the old feminists (including TERFs) were THROWN UNDER THE BUS by the Pritzker transgender males to get their much bigger agenda into law. “You want to protect abortion, ladies? Here, try this amendment!” The Pritzkeroids don’t care if people catch on and abortion is defeated, because their number one fundraising issue is still preserved if they lose. A simple 12-week bill (Robert Kennedy Jr. gets this) would PASS and WIN in Ohio, satisfying everybody on their bottom lines, but NO, we can’t have THAT!

Does the amendment do anything to protect pedophiles and sexual consent by minors? With the lunatic leftists on the Ohio Supreme Court, I am certain that it does. These goofballs actually decided that bail increases based on danger of the accused individual to the public were illegal, until an amendment to allow higher bails for dangerous criminals was passed over Demmunist objections.

Remember – THIS BILL ENSHRINES REPRODUCTIVE/SEXUAL RIGHTS FOR MINORS.

The left always goes too far. The trick is catching them early.

And here I thought this was an exciting election already!

Interesting times – no?

ENJOY THE SHOW
