So where's the anti-Trump angle to this story? Couldn't the Associated Press at least have found an "expert" to say that the bed bug was believed to have come from a nearby Trump hotel?

AP, you're slipping!

So, how much of the rest of Cincinnati did anti-fa burn down in responsive solidarity with the oppressed bed bugs?

I had cousins who were raised Catholic.

At the time I said to myself "Glad we ain't Catholic"

Nowadays to escape the public school system I would consider introducing my kid(if I had one) to a "Sister Mary “Jack Dempsey’’ Sister Mary “Jack Dempsey’’

Better than brainwashed by an SJW.
