The ad against Amy Acton encapsulates everything that is wrong with the Republican Party. Even the ones who otherwise seem principled, like Mike DeWine, have failed this test. They are beyond redemption.

Republicans are running an ad that has Amy Acton's mother calling her a liar and urges people not to vote for her for governor. Here's the response from Acton's campaign. It's going to be interesting to see if the swarmy ad works or backfires.

My take on Donald Trump’s speech Saturday. Where was Scott Jennings? courier-journal.com/story/op…

Gerth: NKU speech shows Trump needs a translator | Opinion

From sex changes at schools to examining John Husted's butt, Trump's speech in Northern Kentucky went from one unhinged topic to another.

The issue with Zacharia isn't that she failed the bar, it's that she held herself out as a lawyer but never passed the bar. Clinton, Obama and Harris all passed the bar when they retook the test. El-Sayed graduated with an MD -- no licensing needed to call yourself a "doctor."

OK, for people who know more about football than me, does it really matter if Stein called timeout before the movement, or is #89 technically in the backfield and allowed by rule to reset? youtu.be/sdGRcGj7anc?si=6gNd…

Great to be with my friend, a Hoosier, a Christian, a Statesman and one of the best Vice Presidents this nation has ever known. Conservative and principled. He and President Trump made quite a team!

Do you remember when during WWII, FDR suggested that Japan take out Bozeman, Montana? Or when Harry Truman a few years later, said North Korea should destroy Dallas? Yeah. Me neither.

OK. Republicans say Jack Smith had a vendetta against Trump. I'm ready to listen. Their next step needs to be to pass a law ordering the release of all reports Aileen Cannon has ordered sealed. Let's see what evidence there is that Trump broke the law.

Watching the Spanish-language broadcast of the USA-Mexico futbol game. Don’t understand a word other than “Anthony Robinson,” but for a 0-0 game, it certainly sounds exciting.

Are we seeing a shift in American’s thinking about not only Israel’s war in Palestine, but also a hardening of opinion against our war in Iran?

Tonight at Gillette Stadium, Zach Bryan, one of the biggest country music artists in the world, wore a Free Palestine shirt onstage. Gillette Stadium is owned by Robert Kraft, who pushed Ed Sheeran and his promoter to drop Macklemore from his tour. Bryan isn’t just a major country artist. He is one of the biggest live draws in music, filling stadiums across the United States and in major cities around the world. Bryan served eight years on active duty in the US Navy and served overseas in Bahrain and Djibouti. Members of Bryan’s band also wore shirts supporting the Palestinian cause, including his drummer, who wore a jersey honoring the memory of Hind Rajab. Zach Bryan has a second show at Gillette Stadium tomorrow, Saturday night.

When Schmidt dies, at his wake, instead of playing a video that shows photos of him and his family throughout his life, they should just play this video.
