I returned to my old youth soccer roots to talk to local parents about how they're keeping kids safe as federal immigration enforcement detains people -- including, in one case, three U.S. citizens -- across the street from Evanston parks and schools. Check it out ⬇️⬇️

One of the fall back defenses people have made about @VivekGRamaswamy's ad attacking Acton is that Acton's mother just said she lied about living in a tent. Cledith Arthur's 1978 arrest warrant lists Terrace Lake Park, Route 7 as his address

The Kansas City Star first reported Thiel’s donations to Per Aspera Policy in 2019: kansascity.com/news/politics… Since then, the group has funded super PACs in Ohio’s 2022 Senate race and Virginia’s 2026 redistricting referendum.

Buckeyes PAC ran this ad last month falsely claiming that Brown supported a bill that would have allowed undocumented immigrants to vote. Nothing in the referenced bill would have done that, and Brown’s campaign asked TV stations to take the ad down.

Brian Poindexter is a union ironworker and the Democratic nominee for Ohio’s 7th Congressional District, challenging embattled Republican U.S. Rep. Max Miller. But Poindexter doesn’t want to talk about Miller. He wants to talk about working families. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/…

Fascinating inside look into how national Republicans see the data center issue playing out in Ohio
NEWS: The Senate GOP campaign arm has sent a memo warning AI companies that backlash to data centers could cost them a critical Senate seat — and turn the industry politically radioactive nationwide “politicians across the country will take notice” axios.com/2026/08/19/gop-dat…

As data centers continue to grow in numbers and unpopularity, the candidates in Ohio’s Senate race are calling for more oversight. While they offer contrasting visions for data centers, neither has embraced a full halt in construction desired by advocates. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/…

The light green part of this graph is outside spending in Ohio U.S. Senate campaigns. In 2010, before Citizens United, it's barely visible. By 2012, it nearly matched candidate spending, $38 million to $43 million. By 2024, it was $309 million outside, to $141 million candidate.

New: A super PAC supporting Vivek Ramaswamy just reported $12.24 million in Q2 fundraising, with almost all of it from billionaires Elon Musk, Ratmir Timashev ($5m each), Bill Ackman, and Ross Stevens ($1m each). It’s the first time any of them have donated to the super PAC.

Slight correction: Stevens gave $5 million when the super PAC was founded in early 2025. The five billionaires (Yass, Stevens, Musk, Timashev, and Ackman) now account for more than 88% of V-PAC’s funding.
