Explain how Ohio Senate President Rob McColley is any different from U.S. Senate leader John Thune? Both are denying President Trumps signature election integrity agenda of universal photo ID for voters. You recommended him as the top of our ticket.

I don't know what else @johnthune needs to see: Here you have the left admitting that the only way they can win elections is if non-citizens vote. When Americans chose, they reject the far left policies of the Democrat party establishment. Pass the SAVE America Act now.

The Legislature removed this Sales Tax Exemption on Data Centers in the 2025 budget, but that was Vetoed. One year later, what was estimated at $300 million in lost revenue is now $1.6 billion. The legislature was not told of this cost until seeing it in the newspaper. I am strongly encouraging removing this sales tax exemption fully in Ohio Law. It is unnecessary and hypocritical if we do not have this exemption for Bob & Betty Buckeye.

Fun fact: the original version of this article credited Signal Ohio. And then masthead level editors intervened and decided that THE Cleveland dot com wouldn't be giving due credit to lowly reporters like me

The Ohio Legislature needs to overturn the Governor's veto before Fathers Day (when we go on Summer break). => Calls for change as Ohio sales-tax break for data centers approaches $1.6 billion a year news5cleveland.com/news/local-new…

@OHPoliticalNews See for yourself: ssa.gov/data/havv/#rep… > choose a week: Select 2026 Annual Totals > scroll to Ohio: 39,547 Total Txns, 37,335 mismatches. 94%-THE WORST STATE IN THE COUNTRY. Identity & citizenship cannot be confirmed, yet these registrants can vote by mail without photo ID.

@MathewsforOhio Rep. Mathews, You mentioned you’ve been looking into the Maineville Uzbek trucking situation and that NODAWOLF has been helpful. Quick follow-up: have any of those trucking companies, or Bekhzod Rakhmatov (federally charged in the human-smuggling case), received any JobsOhio or ODOD grants, tax credits, or other state-backed incentives? If there are public records on this, that would be helpful. JobsOhio’s records are largely opaque, which is exactly why transparency matters. Will you commit to co-sponsoring the JobsOhio transparency / accountability bill (HB 779 – Rader/Pizzulli)? Separately, I’m tracking economic development bills HB188 and HB292. HB188 creates a hybrid public-private board that would “study potential means of advancing:” -bilateral trade and investment between Ohio and Israel -infrastructure collaboration (Ohio + Israel) -emerging industries, tech, and innovation clusters -multilateral partnerships involving Israel and nations in Africa, Asia, Europe, GCC states, and Oceania In practical terms, this establishes a framework to “explore” multinational public-private R&D and commercialization partnerships involving Ohio universities and hospitals, including pilot projects in water, agriculture, and energy…using taxpayer-funded research to develop IP that is then commercialized through private (including foreign) partners, with public funds covering the upfront costs and private actors capturing much of the upside, including profits. My concern is that these kinds of structures can expand public-private and cross-border R&D networks faster than oversight frameworks can keep up… especially around vetting, accountability, and subsidy allocation, and with limited guardrails around IP, licensing, and long-term public benefit. I realise legislators are under heavy pressure from economic development groups and industry lobbies, and you voted for both of these bills when they were in the House. At the end of the day, your job is to represent constituents. Before moving forward with bills like these, I’d ask you to consider one question: who benefits from these arrangements, and do they measurably improve outcomes for everyday Ohioans… especially your constituents in Lebanon and Warren County?

This is heart breaking. @ClevelandClinic employs some of the most talented doctors in the country. It’s awful to think administrators would engage in this kind of fraud and by association, tarnish the reputations of people doing important work.

A US hospital has taken a billion dollars from taxpayers to help poor patients. But INSTEAD of helping poor patients, they paid executives millions, built an art museum, built an NBA practice facility, and a buiding in Abu Dhabi. Meet Cleveland Clinic.

I discuss Ohio’s proposed photo ID constitutional ballot amendment planned for Nov’s election does NOTHING to close the current photo ID loophole for mail-in/absentee ballots. The Ohio legislature MUST 1st pass HB577 and enact it by the election or the amendment has no teeth.

🚨Cuyahoga County, Ohio (Cleveland) — important nuance on the 2020 registrations:They added a massive wave in 2020 — so many that 19.39% of the county’s current voter rolls came from that one year (vs. 10.87% statewide). Then, by the 2024 snapshot, they removed 75,804 of the Jan–Oct 2020 registrations — 44% of that entire cohort. Important: This purge was likely a good thing. They apparently identified a large number of bad records and got rid of them. But here’s what’s concerning: Under Ohio law + NVRA rules, you’re not even supposed to start treating recent registrations as potentially removable until after 2 years of inactivity + confirmation notices + another 4-year waiting period. There simply wasn’t enough time under normal procedures.This strongly suggests they had to use abnormal/accelerated methods to remove them — which means they knew these records were problematic. The real question: How did ~76,000 bad registrations get added in the first place in one county? From my peer-reviewed Ohio voter roll analysis."

🚨WATCH: @lukerosiak testifies before the Senate Small Business Committee on his investigation into alleged Medicaid fraud in Ohio: "People are actually billing Medicaid to hang out with their own family members at home."

🚨I called the Ohio Attorney General’s office in January about a $1.2 billion fraud scandal. They threatened to subpoena me. Then I called the Governor. Never even heard back. So I'm telling you instead.

under discussed that the american midwest is — in the most literal meaning of the term — among the most civilized places on earth

Ohio Republicans should stop being reactive to news and start being proactive about reversing our state's decline. Touting what you supposedly did in advance of a massive crisis (that happened regardless of what you allegedly did to prevent it!) is telling on yourself. And let's also acknowledge that if it weren't for journalism, the fraud would just continue alongside the game of political musical chairs that is foisted upon us.

Shontel Brown is out here crying that Frank LaRose “folded like a cheap lawn chair” for handing Ohio’s voter data to the DOJ. Spare me the drama. LaRose didn’t “hand over” anything the feds didn’t already have on every tax-paying, license-holding, benefit-receiving American citizen in this country. He sent the voter file — as requested under federal law — so the DOJ could verify Ohio is actually cleaning its rolls like the National Voter Registration Act demands. The Supreme Court already ruled in favor of the underlying authority driving the submission and inspection of these files and the purpose behind what LaRose did. Shontel, if you’re trying to educate your constituents, then why not share the facts, the truth, and the SCOTUS precedent that backs LaRose? State efforts to audit and clean voter rolls — and to work with the feds to snuff out election fraud — are not just legal. They’re required. And they protect the votes of real, qualified electors from being diluted by ghosts, non-citizens, and double-dippers. Brown and her crew scream “disenfranchisement” every time someone tries to secure the ballot. But the real disenfranchisement? When honest Ohioans lose faith that their legal vote even counts because the rolls are a mess and the rules are deliberately loose. What Brown and the Democrats are whining about isn’t about privacy — it’s about keeping the system sloppy enough to exploit and to cheat. The Democrat playbook never changes: Use fear to keep the rolls dirty, then cry racism or disenfranchisement when anyone tries to fix it. LaRose did his job. Brown’s throwing a tantrum because some states actually have spines. What do you think — time to call this bullshit out every time? #Ohio #ElectionIntegrity #FrankLaRose #ShontelBrown

You willingly handed over millions of Ohioans’ sensitive personal data (including SSNs and DLs) to Trump’s DOJ without any transparency on how it will be used, shared, or protected.  While republicans in other states refused DOJ’s request, you folded like a cheap lawn chair.

@AuditorRhodes Columbus Dispatch avoided linking to the Daily Wire and never explained what the series actually *said*. Instead, wrote a bizarre ad hominem titled "Who is Luke Rosiak," which erroneously described my prior Loudoun story, linking to a NYT op-ed instead of the actual story.

John Kasich opened up this door as a governor back in 2014 when he’s expanded the Medicaid eligibility in conjunction with/Obamacare (ACA) provisions to include childless persons and 138% of the federal poverty line. This was done without the approval of the legislature and needs to be reversed.

My hottest sports take is that if your stadium was funded by tax payers your games should be on free, network TV. Yes, I'm annoyed that I have to buy 3 streaming services and cable to watch the Spurs playoff games.

Went to Cincy and won $70 at Hard Rock. Then proceeded to get kicked out of a bar for saying #faggot. I didn’t know the first amendment didn’t exist. Long island with a view #WHY
