This of course is not illegal. No rules against it. The only thing that prevents news orgs from doing this all the time is self-imposed and rigorously enforced standards of accuracy.

So support, read and pay for journalism that does that.

Jon Husted is at the core of the largest corruption scandal in Ohio, and you’re paying the price on your utility bills every damn month.

Trump Administration Abandons Efforts to Impose Orders on Law Firms

Again, when it's time to put up or shut up in court, the Trump Admin loses. This is a moment to commend the law firms that refused to appease a bullying president & shame those who capitulated.

History β€” and hopefully future clients β€” will remember who stood firm & who folded.

And communities can’t afford the energy increases fueled by data centers. It’s unsustainable for both small businesses and households.

The big corporations need to shoulder any added costs.

Ohio bill would defund public universities for promoting DEI A bill in the Ohio House would punish public universities by stripping funding from them for not complying with the state's anti-DEI efforts.
