Awake in Ohio

[OAMF @OhioAMF]

“Lawmakers also received pointed critiques from Ohioans who say elected officials have been too slow to respond to their frustrations, and their response thus far has been inadequate.

“The citizens are going to continue working to BAN them IF the legislative body doesn’t TAKE ACTION,” Stephanie Stock, the president of Ohio Advocates for Medical Freedom, warned.”

“Research scientist (correction: Industrial Hygienist, chemical engineer, & Chemical expert witness) Stephen Petty worries about what’s in the water data centers use to cool their facilities.”

“Ohio state Sen. Shane Wilkin, R-Hillsboro, asked why state regulators’ permitting systems aren’t enough to protect residents.”

“They’re effective for chemicals that are regulated,” Petty said. “They’re not effective for chemicals that are not regulated.” Currently, he said, many materials including PFAS — microplastics known as forever chemicals — fall outside state regulations. That discharge could present HEALTH CONCERNS, but it could COST LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, too, Petty warned.”

“The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recently announced plans to rollback PFAS drinking water limits that were set to take effect in 2029. But if PFAS eventually face regulation, and the chemicals have already been discharged into water systems, local governments could be on the hook for the cleanup.”

“Petty described a city in New Jersey that spent more than $30 million on technology to filter the chemicals from its municipal water system.”

This is an incredible admission that pro-Israel forces are going straight to the AI companies to alter the perception of reality that you see.

You can call this influence, manipulation or control, but you can’t say it’s not happening. She just told you they’re doing it.

[Derrick Evans @DerrickEvans4WV]

This is INSANE.

AIPAC controls 76% of the members of Congress, regardless of which party they belong to.

There’s def a uniparty, but it looks much different than I could have ever imagined.

I NEVER looked or paid attention to any of this until they took out Thomas Massie.

[Rep Jennifer Gross @jenniferforrep]

THIS is EXACTLY why ALL Ohio voters must be required to show voter ID.

@BreannaMorello Thank you! We need all the attention we can get. Both our potential governors will sell us out to data centers.

[Breanna Morello @BreannaMorello]

I’m currently in Ohio right now working on a report.

SIDE NOTE:

Most politicians are intentionally neglecting the data centers issues.

These signs are EVERYWHERE in Ohio.

This is such a key issue and so many are intentionally looking the other way.

[Marcell Strbich @marcellstrbich]

With the exception of 1 principled State Senator Al Cutrona, the Ohio Senate regretfully passed a voter ID resolution that fails to fix Ohio’s photo ID loophole for mail in and absentee ballots. Why is Ohio’s legislature ignoring 95% Republicans wish for photo ID for ALL ballots?

"We consider the CHOLESTEROL LEVEL Of 350 Perfectly Fine."
~Barbara O'Neill

"Now, doctors want you DOWN to 150"...every time the numbers are lowered, MILLIONS More people 'need' drugs.

That's NOT health care, that's greedy MARKETING. Statins are a $22 BILLION dollar industry.

The hypothesis that high total cholesterol causes CVD was introduced in the 1960s by the authors of the Framingham Heart Study.

However, in their 30-year follow-up study published in 1987, the authors reported that ‘For each 1 mg/dl drop in total cholesterol per year, there was an 11% increase in coronary & total mortality’.

Statins cause a litany of side effects that will cause sickness & a low quality of life. Statins do not lower Cardiovascular Risk or Disease, Stroke, Heart Attack or Mortality. Statins cause more death.

Chronic Conditions Caused By Statin Drugs:
Liver Inflammation & Damage
New Onset Type 2 Diabetes
Heart Failure
Vertigo & Dizziness
Cognitive Impairment
ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease)
Aphasia
Dementia & Alzheimer's Disease
Cancer
Pancreas Inflammation
Parkinson's Disease
Muscle Tearing & Pain (Rhabdomyolysis)
Fatigue & Weakness
Neuropathy
Hormone Deficiency
Brain Damage
MS Multiple Sclerosis
Clinical Depression

Yesterday I drove to Columbus to testify before Ohio’s Joint Data Center Committee thinking it was a serious effort to protect Ohio communities.

Today I found out several of the members have conflicts of interest.

Ohioans are being told this committee exists to provide oversight and protect citizens from the impacts of massive data center development. But look at who is sitting on the committee.

One co-chair owns and manages oil and gas companies, well services, and businesses connected to energy infrastructure.

Another co-chair runs an industrial contracting company that could potentially benefit from large-scale infrastructure projects.

Another member leads a commercial and industrial construction company.

Several committee members have received campaign contributions from utility, energy, construction, and power-sector PACs.

Meanwhile, these same politicians support policies promoting massive energy expansion for data centers.

So here’s my question:

How can Ohioans have confidence this committee is independent when so many members have professional, political, or financial ties to industries that stand to benefit from data center growth?

I didn’t come to Columbus to participate in political theater.

I came because Ohio families have legitimate questions about energy demand, water consumption, environmental impacts, property rights, privacy concerns, and the long-term consequences of building an AI and data center economy across our state.

Instead of an independent watchdog, are we looking at a committee designed to reassure the public while the decisions have already been made?

Ohioans deserve answers.

Ohioans deserve transparency.

And Ohioans deserve a committee that represents the public, not the industries that profit from the outcome.

Was this committee created to protect Ohio citizens?

Or was it created to make us think someone is protecting Ohio citizens?

That’s the question I you with today. #Ohio #datacenters #WaterRights #PrivacyMatters #energybills

[Awake in Ohio @AwakeinOhio]

Guess Jane Timken needs to go too.

[Marcell Strbich @marcellstrbich]

By most ‘stringent’ voter ID law, Ohio Senator Jane Timken signals approval of 1 million Ohioans voting by mail & absentee ballot w/out photo ID. She doesn’t want a law to fix it, but expects Ohio’s voters will pass a constitutional ballot resolution based on flawed voter ID law.

[Kim Georgeton for Ohio @KimGeorgeton]

Hello ☎️ OHIO! We have a conflict of interest on this committee. Should the Chairs step down due tho this? What do you think?⬇️

[The Constitutionalist 🇺🇸 @WeWillBeFree24]

Ohio Joint Data Center Committee - "Unbias Protection of Ohio" AKA - Infinite Data Centers

Introducing the Committee Members:

The Big Players -

Co-Chair: Ohio Senator Brian Chavez (R-Marrieta District 30)

- manages and owns Reno Oil and Gas, LLC: handles over 400 oil and gas wells.

- Chavez Well Service, LLC: Involved in well services, including bidding on state contracts to cap/seal abandoned (“orphan”) oil and gas wells (one bid won; others up to $1.5 million).

- DeepRock Disposal Solutions/related entities: (fracking wastewater disposal via deep-well injection): He served as CEO until 2024; there are disputes about ownership disclosure of related LLCs.

- Heinrich Enterprises, Inc. (wife’s family oil and gas business): He resigned as vice president in 2024.

Other alleged/related LLCs reported in Environmental Ethics complaints include Heinrich Property LLC, Horizon Partners Investments LLC, Funds Protection Investment LLC, and Condevco Operating LLC.

Co- Chair: Rep. Adam Holmes (R-Nashport, District 97) – House

- CEO of Frueh Enterprises: mechanical and industrial contracting company in Zanesville - works in industrial sectors, which can intersect with energy infrastructure, power plants, or facility construction relevant to data centers.

Chavez and Holmes serve parallel on the energy committee, and both support the Perry nuclear agreement with Meta and Vistra.

Member: Rep. Thad Claggett (R-Licking County, District 68)

- President of Claggett & Sons, Inc., a commercial, industrial, and institutional construction contractor in Newark. Buildouts?

- supports "all of the above" energy strategies.

Who took energy PAC Money and Sector Contributions:

Chavez:
- AEP
-Duke Energy Corp PAC Federal and Duke Energy Corporation PAC: Multiple contributions.
- NiSource Inc PAC: Several contributions.
- Ohio Action Committee for Rural Electrification (ACRE) / Ohio Rural Electric Cooperatives / National Rural Electric Cooperative Association

Holmes:
- NiSource Inc PAC
- Ohio Action Committee for Rural Electrification (ACRE) / related rural electric co-op PACs
-Duke Energy Corporation PAC / Duke Energy Corp Employee PAC
- Vistra Employee PAC
-Construction/trade PACs (relevant to energy infrastructure)

Reineke:
-Vistra Employee PAC of Vistra Corp
- Duke Energy Corp PAC Federal
- took First Energy PAC money prior to the HB6 scandal

(Other board members are Ohio small business owners not attached to energy PACs or sectors)

Chavez has publicly endorsed Vivek "Ohio the next Silicon Valley" Ramaswamy, who received Vistra PAC money. Vivek's company, Strive Management, pushes for more fracking, and owns stock in NVIDIA chips.

If elected, Vivek gets to appoint all non-elected officials to public utilities positions that approve energy infrastructure and data centers.

These are clear ethics violations for conflicts of interest, which should be disqualifying.

Ohio is fighting a monster of epic proportions. It's a fig leaf committee, created just to placate Ohioans.

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

It’s all talk. Just withhold foreign aid to Israel for a month and they’ll stop bombing their neighbors - instant peace, the Strait of Hormuz can be opened, and gas drops $2 a gallon. Israel has been, and continues to be, the biggest welfare recipient from American tax payers.

Always remember that PRIDE is a JEWISH value.

[OAMF @OhioAMF]

Thank you SO much to our friend, and OAMF member, Stephen Petty who volunteered his time today to be an expert witness on the water safety concerns regarding data centers, and the chemicals that are required in their cooling systems.

We were shocked to see Sen. Chavez, attempting to minimize Stephen’s unmatchable credentials and wisdom in the area environmental hygiene and chemical exposure by attempting to minimize his description of the serious risk of PFAS (forever chemicals) by comparing them to the “surfactants” in “soap.”

Below are Stephen Petty’s credentials which Senator Chavez may want to review. Stephen is a REPUBLICAN by the way. Water safety issues are NON-partisan.👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Stephen Petty is a Professional Engineer in 6 states (including Ohio), a Certified Industrial Hygienist (Expert in Health and Safety) and a Certified Safety Professional (OSHA Expert). He has worked and lived in Ohio for over 40 years but now spends some time in Florida. He has written the book on Forensic Engineering for the Insurance Industry (now in its 2nd ed.) based on ~10,000 actual inspections – mostly here in Ohio.

Over the past 25 years, he has been retained and disclosed in nearly 400 legal cases regarding exposure and tested for dioxins, nerve agents, biotoxins, legionella, mold, bacteria and numerous organic and inorganic chemicals. Most recently, he was selected as an exposure expert in East Palestine.

Mr. Petty also has 10 years experience as a Section Manager for Columbia Gas whose responsibilities included power generation. @OhioSenateGOP @OHRGOPCaucus @OhioMAHACaucus @RenzTom @OCAPresident @OHPoliticalNews @StrictSpeaking @KimGeorgeton @OAMFStephanie @Rob_McColley @JonathanDEwing

According to Grok Right Wing groups are responsible for nearly all terrorist activity in America

Grok says “Far-Right ideology” causes more deaths than Muslim jihadists and liberal extremist groups

Ohio: Should the proposed constitutional amendment requiring photo ID for in-person voting also require photo ID for mail-in voting? #Ohio #VoterID #elections #OhioElections

[Dr Rahmeh Aladwan @doctor_rahmeh]

White phosphorus ignites instantly on contact with oxygen. It burns at over 800°C. It melts through clothing, skin, muscle — and bone.

In the bloodstream, it becomes a systemic poison. It attacks the heart, liver, and kidneys leading to multi‑organ failure and death.

Monsters.

[Kentucky Statesman @ky_statesman]

So Palantir calls for the draft to be reinstated in America and then a month later two AIPAC whores in Congress propose merging our military with Israel's? Are you starting to connect the dots?
