School bus driver Dorian Pace safely evacuated 15 students from a burning school bus in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. The fire broke out behind one of the rear wheels on Bus 21 while transporting students to Monticello Middle School.

Dorian is a veteran bus driver with over 11 years of experience. He said that the annual bus evacuation drills helped them prepare for this emergency. What's amazing is that there were no injuries reported. He said, "What was going through my mind was, I can't lose any kids."

His quick thinking turned what could have been a horrible day into a moment of relief. Dorian Pace is a hero, and I’m sure those kids and their parents will be forever grateful for his bravery.

@___Keiraa @RepBrideSweeney @nickieantonio @Russo4Ohio Sports gambling has only been legal since 2023. Raising taxes that high is just gonna send folks right back to what they did before... Who's gonna tell DeWine that tax hikes over smarter policy just doesn't make sense?

Who will Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine pick to replace J.D. Vance in the U.S. Senate? Here's a thread on how some of the top contenders are connected to the FirstEnergy corruption scandal in Ohio...

NEWS — ICE deportations in fiscal year 2024 spiked to 271,000 under President Biden, the highest tally by the agency since FY 2014, during the Obama administration, according to a new report.

That’s more than the Trump-era high of 267,000 ICE deportations in FY 2019.

Everyone should be cackling at notion that the Haslams — currently seeking $1.2 BILLION in public subsidies to move from an existing publicly funded facility to an even gaudier one — "won't respond to extortion." https://t.co/Ab80s0aNDV

I have a lot of thoughts, but for now, it’s clear Biden and his holdouts threw Harris off a glass cliff. I place the blame on a racist inner circle that should’ve been immediately kicked off the campaign. You cannot compromise with fascists and win. 1/

Every Cleveland civic leader who has allowed Bernie Moreno to sit on boards, giving him a platform to speak is partially to blame.

Like school funding, like how they just did the largest bribery scam in state history….

[Ari Berman @AriBerman]

Ohio Republicans, who passed gerrymandered maps that were struck down 7x by courts, brazenly rigged anti-gerrymandering initiative to trick voters into thinking it would promote gerrymandering. An unbelievably brazen abuse of power https://t.co/jiGSlbFqMI

Just voted and reread the Issue 1 ballot language. What a stain on Frank LaRose and the Ohio Supreme Court. Campaigning is prohibited in the polling place, but they did it right there on the ballot.

In other words, we've handed $1B to families who could already afford to send their kids to private school when that money could have gone to public schools

The dead 68-year-old guy that Dave Yost indicted for illegal voting is scheduled for an arraignment today.

He's accused of voting as a noncitizen (he had a green card) in 2014-2018. Yost indicted him, seemingly unaware that the guy died https://t.co/MjlwKmpBcG

Editor Commentary: Ohio lawmakers are currently occupying unconstitutionally gerrymandered seats drawn by Ohio politicians. A Yes vote on Ohio Issue 1 would remove politicians from redistricting. A No vote would keep politicians in charge of drawing maps.
