  • Michigan will lose fees because of Comerica changes

    LANSING, Mich. (AP) - Michigan's already battered state budget stands to lose more than $1.5 million in annual fees because of changes being made by Comerica Inc. Comerica officials announced earlier this year that the company, founded in 1849 as Detroit Savings Fund Institute, plans to move its headquarters from Detroit to Dallas by fall. The company also has applied for a national charter, meaning bank regulators in Michigan no longer would oversee Comerica even if it kept its headquarters in Detroit. That change alone means the state may be unable to collect supervisory fees charged annually by the Michigan...

    We first were introduced to Cincinnati Police Chief Teresa Theetge, back at the end of July. Jazz Festival weekend was marred by the most horrific videos of black revelers attacking small groups of white festival goers in the city's downtown in the early morning hours and seriously injuring some of them. Above is only one of the incidents, and it turned out the fellow throwing the punches already had multiple felony charges pending. He shouldn't have been out partying to begin with. Another victim was a young woman who stepped in to try to break the fight up, only to...

    History is not indoctrination — or is it? How many people know that the scriptures were cited by our founders more than Locke, Montesquieu, and Blackstone combined? Students learn that James Madison is the father of the Constitution, but do they know that he would likely have failed unless he had promised a bill of rights to Pastor John Leland? Does today’s generation realized that the pilgrims were literally a church plant and that the Mayflower Compact was modeled after a church covenant? It's more likely they believe that America was formed under secular influences with just a tiny tip...

    MARION, OH (MARION COUNTY NOW)—A Marion County Grand Jury has indicted Xiaoping Peng, a 53-year-old resident of Chicago, Illinois, on multiple serious charges linked to a prostitution enterprise operating out of the Chinese Spa located at 1288 Delaware Avenue in Marion. The indictment includes charges of engaging in a pattern of corrupt activity, two counts of trafficking in persons for involuntary servitude, and two counts of promoting prostitution. Peng was arraigned today in front of Judge Todd Anderson, who set his bond at a staggering $1,000,000. A Chinese national, Peng allegedly entered the United States illegally during the Biden administration...
  • CNN CUTS OFF Speaker Johnson as He Attacks Democrats For Shutting Down the Government Over Healthcare Funding for Illegal Aliens (VIDEO)

    Fake News CNN cut off House Speaker Mike Johnson on Thursday as he attacked the Democrats for shutting down the government over healthcare funding for illegal aliens. Earlier this week, Vice President JD Vance made it clear that Democrats are refusing to keep the government open because they are prioritizing illegal aliens. “Democrats want a $1.5 trillion spending package that funded free health care for illegals. We told them that was absurd, and now they’re willing to shut down the government over it. It’s unacceptable,” Vance said earlier this week after a meeting with top Democrats Schumer and Jeffries.

    A 24-year-old Venezuelan man, Anthony Emmanuel Labrador-Sierra, posed as a 16-year-old and enrolled at Perrysburg High School in Ohio, using fraudulent documents, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Ohio. Labrador-Sierra submitted false birth dates on applications for Temporary Protective Status and Employment Authorization Documents in 2024 and 2025. He also used false information to purchase a Taurus G3C 9mm semiautomatic pistol, which he was not legally allowed to possess due to his immigration status. Labrador-Sierra first entered the U.S. on a tourist visa in 2019 and was supposed to return to Venezuela later that year...

    ASHLAND, Ohio (WJW) – Ashland County Sheriff Kurt Schneider said an investigation is underway after buttons that contained comments about President Trump, such as “Is he dead yet” and “One day, we will wake up to his obituary” were on display at the “Ashland County Democrats” booth at the Ashland County Fair on Thursday. “I will be contacting the U.S. Secret Service tomorrow,” Sheriff Schneider told the WJW I-Team. “Violence shouldn’t be tolerated in any way, in any venue in any jurisdiction in the United States and it certainly won’t be tolerated here in Ashland County.”

    A radical leftist student at Oberlin College casually called for political assassinations to continue in the wake of the targeted killing of political activist Charlie Kirk last week, according to an online post she made. “We need to bring back political assassinations,” said Julia Xu in a social media post, where her handle is @bringbacktheguillotine. “I don’t feel bad and I don’t think that everyone deserves the right to free speech. Some people should be afraid to express their opinion in public.” Xu, who grew up in Connecticut, is a second year student at Oberlin College in Ohio majoring in...

    State Representative Adam Mathews has called for the immediate resignation of Judge Ted Berry following controversial social media comments regarding the death of Charlie Kirk. According to Mathews, the statements, which included racially charged and politically divisive language, have been deemed a serious breach of ethical standards for judges in Ohio. Some of the comments Judge Berry allegedly made included "Rest in Hatred & Division," "How's he feel about gun violence & gun control in Hell now," as well as a remark celebrating the race of the killer, saying, "So, a white guy killed him! Color it KARMA!" Mathews described...

    NEW YORK (AP) — Lawyers for a man charged with killing eight people when he drove his truck onto a New York City bike path say the death penalty should be ruled out because President Donald Trump was “uninformed and full or rage” when he called for it. The lawyers filed papers Tuesday in federal court on behalf of Sayfullo Saipov (sy-foo-LOH’ sah-YEE’-pawf).

    Ohio lawmakers are weighing a new energy program that would let utilities temporarily adjust household thermostats and water heaters — but only for customers who sign up. House Bill 427, introduced this week in the General Assembly, would create an opt-in “demand response” program aimed at cutting strain on the state’s power grid during peak usage, such as summer heat waves or winter freezes. Rep. Roy Klopfenstein (R-Haviland), the bill’s sponsor, said the plan extends a proven tool already used by the industry. “Demand response programs have proven to be a vital tool for our large commercial users, and it’s...

    In light of an opinion issued Tuesday by Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost, the American Civil Liberties Union said that eight Ohio counties don’t have legal contracts with U.S. Customs and Immigration Enforcement. That being the case, the ACLU of Ohio said, those detainees must be released. However, one Ohio sheriff’s office said its contract with the feds meets the legal standards Yost laid out. Another said he’ll fix any problems, but he’s not releasing anybody. For its part, Yost’s office declined to answer questions. After taking office in January, President Donald Trump swiftly began implementing his policy of mass...

    Vance starts the 2028 race with advantages in the Rust Belt and Sun BeltAs we settle into the second Trump administration, eyes are already turning toward 2028. With President Donald Trump barred from a third elected term by the 22nd Amendment, the Republican nomination looks like a coronation for Vice President JD Vance. Polling shows Vance dominating the GOP field, with 46% support in a recent survey. That's far ahead of potential challengers. Vance, the Ohio senator and author of "Hillbilly Elegy," embodies the Trumpian blend of populism, economic nationalism and cultural conservatism that has reshaped the GOP. Operationally, his...

    Two of the seven suspects arrested in connection with the disgusting beating of two white people in downtown Cincinnati have been freed from jail. 24-year-old DeKyra Vernon and 25-year-old Aisha Devaughn were released on Friday. Both were (allegedly) active participants in the savage beating. Vernon is believed to be the woman in the viral video who punched the female victim, Holly, from behind, while Devaughn is believed to be the woman who stomped on the male victim’s head. This comes after a woke judge cut each suspect’s bond to $25,000, of which they only have to pay $2,500 upfront. Vernon’s...
