@stacey_hauff That's a gorgeous stream. Your legs aren't bad either.

@TimRossOH How is what you and your employer do, which is fund your chosen candidates via dark money from energy companies, any different than what Larry Householder did? There isn't any. Just one US Attorney chose to go after him. You better look out in the future for a Dem US Attorney.

Today's Rooster dispatch is about why Dr. Acton should stop promising to appoint multiple(!) Republicans to her cabinet.

The Ohio Republican Party will obstruct her agenda by any means necessary should she win in November.

Stephens should never have been ousted as Speaker.

Thanks to conservative activists we now have a House that’s controlled by corrupt politicians like Matt Huffman and the cronies in his leadership team.

[Scott Pullins @scottpullins]

@MarvMason1 You are correct. The Governor and the Senate President received big corporate donations on the same day as then Speaker Householder. But he couldn't talk about that.

[Scott Pullins @scottpullins]

@BigGyroGuy No. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

[Scott Pullins @scottpullins]

I want to say a few things about D.J. Byrnes, The Rooster. I do not agree with 90% of his politics. I do not like how he treated his ex who is a valued colleague and a dear friend. But what happened to him yesterday is reprehensible. He allegedly sent two texts and

🇺🇦🇷🇺 Ukraine just droned a Russian warship inside a dry dock in Kronstadt.

Kronstadt. As in 30km from Saint Petersburg. As in deep inside Russia.

The radar collapsed onto the superstructure. The mast fell over. The ship is cooked.

The story here is a powerful state senator felt threatened by a cartoon Shrek penis, and had a journalist arrested for it.

[Speaker Jason Stephens @jasoncstephens]

For the last 1.5 years, the Ohio House Medicaid Committee has been working to protect the taxpayer while serving our most vulnerable citizens. As a member of this committee, I can attest that especially over the past few weeks, both sides of the aisle have been working together to honestly find policies to eliminate fraud, waste, & abuse.

Last week, Speaker Huffman added three members of leadership to the Medicaid Committee. These three have taken over the process from the chair, and yesterday they presented a 177-page substitute bill that had been released just a few hours before committee began. This was an ambush! Turns out, the details of this sub bill has provisions in it that totally blow up Medicaid in Ohio and will have the exact opposite effect of what we have been working towards.

Last General Assembly we had a rule that required all amendments and sub bills to be available by midnight the day before adopted (The Cinderella Rule). This rule gave some time for amendments to be read; however, this rule was eliminated in this GA. The result has been that time and time again, members have been forced to take votes before seeing the bill, and then only later getting the details. Yesterday, leadership hid the ball again, and in doing so, left the original members of the committee who weren’t part of crafting the sub bill holding the bag.

This is the latest example of the style of leadership the Ohio House is under.—do what we say or else. Believe me, I know firsthand!

And most unfortunately, this trick yesterday probably wasted an opportunity to truly protect the taxpayer. We were on a path to make major and positive reforms to Medicaid in Ohio to weed out Fraud, Waste, and Abuse; however, now with this sub bill and the way it was handled, how can we trust what we are being told by leadership?

Simply put, we cannot.

Oh, and to be clear, I’m a “No” on this SubBill.

Thank you for writing about what I said. But I do want to make one correction. I do like DJ. But I do not like how he has treated a friend in the past. Both things can be true

Democrats and Republicans slam arrest of Ohio's 'The Rooster' blogger https://t.co/vqcQqIemBO

[Jake Zuckerman @jake_zuckerman]

A blogger sent a powerful state senator an altered, "pornographic" picture of a naked Shrek, mixed in with some political commentary.

The senator emailed his local police chief, seeking the blogger's arrest. He was charged w/ telecommunications harassment

Didn’t realize having the Rooster thrown in jail for annoying me was an option this whole time???
Seems like censorship to me 🤷🏾‍♂️ - unacceptable.

@TimRossOH Simply unnecessary. Try not to be such an asshole.

@emaq27 No. But i would be happy to represent J6ers. Some are my friends. I did represent a lady that was arrested and held with her teenage son all so the feds could get footage from her being there.

Just to be clear, I wasn't intending to take a shot at Jack. What I'm trying to say is that we all are entitled to fundamental constitutional rights whether or not we've been drug into the legal system in the past or are an outright piece of shit or for any other reason.

[Scott Pullins @scottpullins]

Jack has his own history of brushes with law enforcement but I'm not a judge or a priest. DJ was then arrested in the Statehouse by the highway patrol and held overnight in the Franklin County Jail. First, State Senator Jerry Cirino has made himself the biggest pussy in the
