    When the Cleveland Indians changed their name to the “Guardians” in 2021, it was supposed to be progress. But for many Native Americans like me, it felt like something else entirely: being canceled. On the Sunday of this past week, President Donald Trump stood up for us when he called on the team in Ohio to bring back its iconic name. “Cleveland should do the same with the Cleveland Indians,” Trump wrote on Truth Social after calling for the Washington Redskins name to also be restored. “The Owner of the Cleveland Baseball Team, Matt Dolan, who is very political, has...

The $50,000 signage is paid for by Ramaswamy's Super PAC — Victors not Victims (VPAC) — established to support his effort to become Ohio's next Republican governor in 2026. VPAC's Andy Surabian told Fox News that New Yorkers concerned about Mamdani's "radical socialist policies" should move to a state like Ohio "that is about to...
