In a run for Ohio governor, would Amy Acton inspire the same kind of hope we see in Kamala Harris? Today in OhioCLEVELAND, Ohio -- Dr. Amy Acton, a mainstay of the early COVID-19 pandemic with Gov. Mike DeWine, is considering a run for governor in 2026.
Vance cannot seem to stop sticking his foot in his mouth. What embarrassing comparison did get attention for making in recent days?We’ve had a big controversy in Columbus in recent months about whether legislators have privilege when they talk to people like lobbyists, protecting them from having to disclose those conversations in lawsuits. It appears we will not resolve the question. Why not?
She said she’s looking at running for governor because she has experience not only with state health policy, remember wine with the wine, she was the most calming presence during the beginning of COVID on those daily briefings with the governor. She also has experience with youth homelessness and housing and she says she wants to give back and this is a time of her life where she can.Look, something might be happening here in politics that she could be a key part of. It’s not clear.
and an effective campaign would make that clear to Ohio. Fascinating what we could be ahead here. We should say Dave Yost also seeks to be the Republican candidate, but Houston is clearly the leader in this race so far.And the House Minority Leader, Alison Russo, her name has been tossed around for 2026. And so no one is raising their hand just yet. And the chair of the party in Ohio, Liz Walter, said it’s too early to predict how any one candidate would do or not do.
That’s what he did. We have gotten so many press releases from this guy in the two years he’s been there, just saying all of these fringy fringe things that he lacks all credibility, but it did get him the attention that we think he wanted was more from Donald Trump and he’s on the vice presidential ticket. So I guess in his mind, what he’s done is successful. In our minds, he’s been competing with Jim Jordan over who can represent the state worst.
It’s just not there. It’s not helping people. It’s all meant to say, look at me, look at me. I’m as far right as I can get. I’m a Trumper. I’m a Trumper. He’s not serving people and that’s not never what he was about.And none of these programs, you know, this is a, this is a democratic controlled Senate. There was no hope of these ever passing, you know, there’s, there’s no point to introduce them other than to get that, that those points on the red meat categories.
you know, eventually goes to trial. And this subpoena that they filed in Franklin Common Police Court, it’s no longer. This group withdrew it last week. And like you said, we’re never going to get an answer now on this question, at least in this venue. We talked to one of the leaders of the Ohio Coalition for Equity and Adequacy of School Funding who’s involved in this lawsuit. And they told us they just, want to get to trial in November.
positive at first in August 2020 during the height of the pandemic, but that turned out to be a false positive. And I think I remember that was like the night before Donald Trump was going to visit Ohio, if I recall correctly. And he hasn’t had any severe symptoms in any of these cases that he’s tested positive.I hope he doesn’t have severe symptoms here.
many thousands of people who are suffering from long COVID and it would be wonderful if we could figure out how to restore their health.And here in Ohio, we’re the sixth highest rate of long COVID. 30 % of people previously infected experience long COVID symptoms here in the Buckeye State.It’s a terrifying prospect. When you finally get COVID or if you get it again, you just worry.
