The Best Way to Show How Useless You Are, Work From Home: Ahead of D.O.G.E, it would be great if federal employees just resigned by the hundreds of thousands

There is no better way to show how useless you are than not being at work and nobody missing you.  And ahead of Trump becoming president and his staff moving into their positions, federal employees are threatening in mass to resign.  Around 2.3 million federal workers in roughly 24 civilian agencies employ about 98% of that number.  Just over half, 1.2 million, work in jobs that require them to be fully present. The remaining 1.1 million are eligible for remote work, or what they are calling “telework.”  Of those, around 228,000 are in remote positions and are not expected to work in person.  Of the remainder of those 1.1 million, they spend only 61% of their working hours at an office, meaning they report for work only sporadically during a work week. And for anybody working in a job that does not require you to be fully present or that you are off a lot, you only prove that your employer is wasting money on you because they have learned to function without you.  COVID and the work-from-home policies that came with it were some of the dumbest ideas in the history of the world and were a prequel to the concept of just giving everyone a universal wage just for existing, as the attempt was to redefine what productivity meant to an economic culture.  And now, even three years later, many of these federal employees, and many who work with government contracts at large companies, still believe that they can work from home doing a few Teams calls with people and to call that work.  Behind that lunacy is this assumption that we can get to a zero-emission world if people just stopped coming to work and stayed in their homes. The government would pay you to do a job they created without any value on a spreadsheet.  It was always a dumb idea.

Darryl Parks and I, from WLW radio back when he was the guy who ran the whole place, used to talk about this on air all the time: federal employees were useless and made way too much money for doing too little.  Most of them belong to labor unions. Everyone remembers the protests in 2012 when Senate Bill 5 in Ohio was put forth that would strip any government worker from belonging to a labor union and impose collective bargaining on taxpayers who had to pay the bill.  All government jobs created are essentially a tax.  They have created positions that only serve the growth of government, which often works against taxpayer interests.  Public school teachers were some of the worst back then, demanding extraordinary amounts of money for essentially working only 6 or 7 hours a day and having off all summer.  The anger that came from the idea of stripping government workers of their ability to join a labor union didn’t go over well politically, and many Republicans lost their way during the outrage.  And I was in the thick of it; I received a lot of radical union harassment ranging from death threats to open conflict everywhere I went publicly.  I was the face of the effort in many ways because I was on WLW radio all the time talking about it, which directed a lot of anger in my direction.  For which I have no regrets.  It got bad at times, and a lot of people got hurt. You would have thought they’d learn their lesson.  But 8 years later, when Covid came along, all they did was justify everything I said about them.  When they had a chance to shut down schools, attempt to keep people from attending church, and use the virus to stay home from work perpetually and still get paid, they proved how useless I had been saying they were all along.  And it was a redeeming moment that many people noticed and suddenly wanted to do something about. 

Since COVID-19, people who live everyday lives and don’t work for a lazy, bloated government getting paid too much money for doing too little decided they didn’t like this arrangement.  Federal employees typically made 30% more than regular workers, and voters were unhappy about it.  They might have listened to me back in 2012 when Darryl and I spent all those Saturdays talking about how dumb it was to have all those government workers charging too much against the taxpayers for useless jobs.  But most voters weren’t ready to do anything about it.  At the time, they thought it was a good gig if someone could get it, a federal job that was overpaid and didn’t require much performance.  So I was in the minority back then, along with other Tea Party-minded people.  But time proved our arguments extremely valid, and all the violence leading up to Covid was much warranted.  I had to hurt many people for a not-very-good reason just because there was a belief that collective bargaining had a right to overrule individual opinions.  And that if everyone didn’t just shut up and put up with their radical labor union mentality, they had a right to force you to think what they wanted you to think.  Well, that didn’t work out very well, and many of them who engaged in such violence learned the hard way what a bad idea it was to take that position.  But COVID only washed away their arguments and forced the masses of society to see just how dumb and worthless these federal positions were.

I’ve been saying during every government shutdown to call the bluff of federal employees who are always willing to strike if they don’t get to extort trillions of dollars from a budget that is entirely out of control.  Nobody will miss those workers if we shut down the government.  But politicians would get weak-kneed just as they did with SB5.  However, with the work-from-home policies from COVID-19 and the federal employees still working from home all this time later, people now see the truth, and politicians are starting to smell the roses.  If you are working in a job where you don’t physically have to be at the office talking to other people, you are not working in a real job, and you can and should be removed from the payroll.  A job is not a right, it’s a privilege, and usually, the people who provide the pay for those services are getting screwed over if the employee they are paying for doesn’t respect the job enough to be in an office working hard for the contents of that position.  But when it comes to the general federal workplace, we have too many people doing too little.  And the best thing they could do ahead of the efforts of Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, D.O.G.E, is to quit.  Nobody will miss those workers.  When you work in a job where nobody misses you or knew you were ever there, you know you are working in a useless position.  And I think having millions of these workers suddenly unemployed would be great.  There are other things to do in an expanding economy.  And we don’t need to be paying people to work from home.  And if many of those people all simultaneously put in their resignations, nobody will miss them. They are proving once and for all that all the money we have spent on these federal employees was a waste of time and money all along.

Sheriff Jones Endorses the Governor of the Most Corrupt State in America: A solution to the stupidity of Mike DeWine

Another Reason Corruption is Good to See

This is precisely why I value the measurement of corruption, which I talk about extensively in my book, The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business. For the last several weeks, people around me have been asking, “what is going on with our great Sheriff Jones” the Butler County figure that is internationally known for his support of President Trump. Suddenly he has thrown his support to Governor Mike DeWine and made a whole lot of other flip flop decisions that seem ultimately at odds with the MAGA movement. So there is a bit of a panic on the matter, which I have explained as a form of corruption that must be accounted for to understand the decision-making process of Sheriff Jones. Corruption isn’t always just about money, but in the case of Jones and DeWine, without a Trump in the White House, many in the Republican Party are drifting back into the cave of power for the sake of it, and that is why we are seeing rifts forming ahead of the Ohio primary coming up in May of 2022. Unless we have a way of understanding the nature of corruption, we would otherwise have no other means of comprehending these strange behaviors. Trump has at least three more years before he’ll have a chance to be back in the White House. Naturally, Jones must align himself to the world between now and then. Yes, he is perfectly willing to adjust his beliefs to the power void that has formed in Trump’s wake, and from his point of view, the smart money points at the current governor of Ohio, the most corrupt state in all of the United States, Mike DeWine. 

As all this is going on, the challenging governor and my pick for the upcoming primary, Jim Renacci, is up 8 points over the incumbent DeWine. I had the opportunity to listen to Mike DeWine on many conference calls during the Covid mishap that his administration unleashed on Ohio. I have seen behind the veil just what an idiot DeWine was. I voted for him in the last election because he called himself a Republican. What I heard during the government-imposed shutdowns was a complete fool out of touch with reality. One moment in particular that impacted me was when I had to listen to Cedar Fair Amusements in May of 2020 try to explain their problem to DeWine about the trouble with not knowing when they could open their amusement parks because they had to hire, prepare their parks, and take all kinds of measures to get ready for a summer season that government had destroyed, and couldn’t give any guidance going forward. As a right-to-life governor, DeWine had put the pro-abortion Obama activist Amy Acton as head of his Health Department. She was running the state the way a stringy-haired pot-smoking hippie would run it, which was costing the business community billions of dollars during a lockdown over Covid that nobody could see the end of, especially Cedar Fair Amusements who ran a seasonal operation in two Ohio locations. It was worth hundreds of millions of dollars to them, and DeWine wouldn’t commit to anything to help them out. That was pretty much what DeWine said to everyone on those many teleconferences concerned over their businesses. His message was, we’re the government, and we’ll tell you when and what you can do and how long you can do it, and you’ll like it. Mike DeWine showed himself to be just as bad as the worst of Democrats during his first three years in office, and what he has done to Ohio will take decades to fix. So for me, it’s easy; Jim Renacci is the answer to the Mike DeWine debacles of the first term in office as governor.  DeWine has been a disaster.

Sheriff Jones has been something of a thorn in DeWine’s side while Trump was in office. DeWine was one of the first in the country to attempt mask mandates leading all other governors to the mandate first, just as he did with lockdowns. Without DeWine, many other governors only fantasized about it. DeWine was the first to do it. He was also the first to unconstitutionally alter election laws which would then pave the way for massive cheating that the Democrats would perform later that year with mail-in voting to remove Trump from office before the courts could even process the assault. Sheriff Jones, who advertised himself as a “pro Trump” member of law enforcement, suddenly endorsed DeWine for governor after all that DeWine had done to Ohio. Why? Well, the first thing is that the DeWine money machine is kicking in. Corruption and DeWine are never far from each other, and Sheriff Jones is always attracted to a kind of power. I’ve known Sheriff Jones for several years and what’s most valuable to him is his brand. For instance, when his brand is aligned with the Trump White House, it’s a wonderful thing. But I’ve seen it negatively align with big government union business, especially in 2013 when he backed the Lakota school tax increase, which he put his name behind to get it to pass by the most narrow of margins. So the Sheriff isn’t always a hard conservative; he just plays one on TV and in public appearances. And with Biden in the White House for the foreseeable future and Jones up in years himself, he needs to protect his brand while the political world sets itself in a new reality. 

What does Sheriff Jones like to do with his brand? Well, we have seen what he did to Thomas Hall, an Ohio Representative from Middletown who didn’t vote the way that the Sheriff wanted him to vote in Columbus, so the Sheriff used his name to berate the young man on WLW radio to thousands of people, personally attacking Thomas. Nobody elected Sheriff Jones to control other members of congress that we have elected to vote on our behalf. The Sheriff is supposed to take care of law enforcement concerns, not to dictate the terms of how other Republicans vote in our community by bullying them to his will. As a reaction to Thomas, the Sheriff went out of his way to put a primary candidate up against the Ohio Rep by dragging Matt King into the race, which naturally was pitting Republicans against Republicans on purpose for the intention of getting his way and making his point as being the “king maker” of the party, which put all kinds of people into a difficult position. Sheriff Jones didn’t care. He just wanted to show who had the power and what they had to do to kiss the ring to appease him, to hell what the voters of Butler County thought about the matter. That is why Jones had to align with Mike DeWine. Even though the governor is known to be attached to corruption, that power overflow gives Sheriff Jones the power to his brand that feeds his need to stay relevant as a man coming to the end of his career. Jones doesn’t have time to wait for Trump to be back in the White House. The need for power is always present, and DeWine is the quickest way to keep it. 

Now, of course, Jones would never admit to any of this. I’ve spoken to dozens and dozens of people affected by this situation, and they don’t know what to think about it. They feel betrayed and don’t have the words to put to the matter. That is why I like corruption so much, because if we didn’t have some way to measure corruption, no matter what form it exists, we wouldn’t have a way to explain this behavior. From his big labor union perspective, everyone thinks they are doing right; Jones thinks he’s doing what’s right for the Republican Party. He’s a moderate at best, and Thomas Hall has turned out to be way too Trump for his taste, so he is taking action. DeWine loved the way Amy Acton’s hair smelled after she took a shower, so he gave her the keys to Ohio and let her destroy it. As a long-married guy who is a closet Democrat, DeWine thought Acton knew what she was doing, so he defended her against all those evil business leaders who were outraged that DeWine and Acton had closed them down over Covid. DeWine showed himself to be an idiot who thought he was doing right. That’s why we have elections so that when we learn these things about people, we can get rid of them with an option, in this case, Jim Renacci. But honestly, there is only one right, not the right that Sheriff Jones comes up with, or his new buddy, Mike DeWine. But in our Republic, for it ever to really stand, it takes the taxpayers and respect for their vote. If they pick Thomas Hall, it’s not for Sheriff Jones to decide otherwise. Or for DeWine to attempt to hide four years of horrible management of Ohio behind one deal from Intel worth 20 billion dollars and to ride it like a bucking bronco at a rodeo. Corruption seeks to hide its misdeeds behind a façade that, if you know what you are looking at, can tell you the truth about the matter and allow voters to understand who they are getting involved with. And that is why corruption is a lot better to understand than to pretend like it doesn’t exist at all.

The Show Business of Sheriff Jones: When it comes to H.B. 99, Thomas Hall offers a solution

Allowing Teachers to Carry Guns

At the heart of the problem, Sheriff Jones illustrated on his WLW November 18th diatribe against Representative Thomas Hall’s H.B. 99 was this long-established problem of whether or not more public sector employees are a solution to gun violence in schools or a hindrance. There are a lot of guns in Butler County, Ohio, so school shootings are pretty rare, and there is undoubtedly a direct correlation that liberal politics doesn’t want to admit to. Even Sheriff Jones himself is a supporter generally of concealed carry. He has told me that it’s great to have many first responders in the community to stop criminals at the point of a crime. But, Jones is also the head of a police union and symbolizes strength among all the public sector unions. And it is there that he politically turns left every time. He comes from a generation where they wanted to believe in the system of government that we have seen now has let us down time and time again. Yet, he is still a stubborn defender of labor unions even when they show themselves to be trouble. Saying all that, there haven’t been many school shootings in Butler County. There was one in Madison, Twp., not that long ago, and it was Thomas Hall’s father who was a school resource officer who ran the shooter off the scene only wounding four people, not getting a chance to kill them when the attacker fired into a cafeteria one day seemingly unprovoked. To say that Thomas Hall cares about school safety is an understatement. His bill H.B. 99 was meant to set basic training requirements for school boards to plan to so that they could allow teachers to be armed in the classroom, to be those critical first responders when and if a school shooter presented themselves as a menace to the public. For many mysterious reasons, Sheriff Jones was against the bill and made an absolute embarrassment on WLW attacking Thomas Hall for many reasons that no conservative would understand. But Jones has done that before. 

I was pretty disheartened to learn firsthand that Bill Cunningham was not a real conservative. My history with Cunningham goes back for several years, all the way back to 1996 when I had paid Cunningham to be the spokesman for our “Take An Axe to Our Tax” t-shirts that we were using to promote tax cuts during the Bob Dole campaign that year. I was supposed to come on WLW to talk about the promotion, but my segment got bumped because Willie decided to do a strip show that night, where he brought in live strippers to dance nude during the show. The producer offered me to do my segment during that mess, and I had to decline because it just wasn’t something I could be a part of. Later I learned that Bill Cunningham plays a conservative on his radio show, but he wasn’t very conservative. He was the Stephen Cobert of radio, playing a conservative in media, without really being one. I learned around this time that Sheriff Jones, who was frequently on with Cunningham, was much the same way. He played a conservative in public, but he has many big government ideas in private. He’s great if we are talking about law enforcement. But when it comes to social issues, he shows himself to be very liberal, which is why he and Bill Cunningham have always gotten along so well. I understood the show business aspect of the radio work, but I thought of these people as the real deal until I learned firsthand that they weren’t. 

Sheriff Jones Attacks Thomas Hall For Petty Reasons

In 2013 Sheriff Jones and Cunningham came out in favor of the Lakota Levy, which raised our taxes in monstrous ways. It caused so much trouble in our community that we haven’t had a levy since because we never needed it. We didn’t need it then, but Jones worked with the Democrat Kathy Wyenandt to pass the tax increase. We didn’t speak for about five years when finally we broke a little bread together in the middle of the Trump administration. I thought he had been doing an excellent job for Butler County and representing us to the Trump administration. But I wasn’t too shocked to hear him revert to the kind of liberalism that he uttered again with Bill Cunningham using Lakota as a kind of launching point for his resistance to arming teachers in the classroom and for disparaging the very conservative Thomas Hall personally for his position of empowering teachers to add another layer of protection. For Jones, he wants school resource officers or prohibitive training that would make it so difficult for anybody who wishes to even to carry a gun in a classroom that it might as well not even be a law. But Thomas’ bill empowered school boards to set the maximum limits themselves, depending on their need, and Jones felt he needed to sabotage the bill through the public airwaves and the political career of the young representative himself. 

My argument in favor of a more private-sector solution, as opposed to a unionized employee, is due to people like Jones himself. When it comes to the cosmetic stuff, Jones is a great Republican. But when it comes to legislation, he’s a big government guy that’s always talking about compromise with the other side that wants to bury us all. I think it’s an age thing, he and Cunningham are from the same generation, and they thought the big Democrat politics from the early 60s were going to work, and they never really changed their point of view. We have seen times where school resource officers like Thomas’ dad run off shooters while under fire. But we have also seen some who panic, as the resource officer in Florida did, never engaging the shooter and allowing lots of carnage in the meantime. People panic, and cops, even with their many hours of training, panic too. Sometimes they get so much training that they can’t adapt to a unique situation. Sometimes they lock up. They passed the test on paper but can’t apply it to reality. I like the idea of cops in schools. But I want a teacher armed with a gun to be the first responder. And I like the idea of a teacher being so comfortable with a gun that they accept it as part of their lifestyle, practicing every week for the rest of their lives. Not just some bureaucratic training period that may or may not be enough. 

I always wanted to believe in Bill Cunningham as a conservative, just as I always wanted to believe in Sheriff Jones. But with them, most of their public persona is a show. And that is the same with police in general. Having a cop in the hallways of our schools may look nice. It might scare away some potential shooters. But if a shooting actually happens, I don’t believe any public employees are full proof and will behave appropriately under pressure. I prefer mitigation to their service if they get scared or misstep themselves when danger presents itself. Sheriff Jones, the big government guy from Butler County, believes absolutely in public service. He has been a public servant all his life and always will be. I still think he’s generally good for our community so long as it’s mostly a show we are putting on, and things aren’t getting too real. Yet, after the way he treated Thomas Hall on WLW, where he turned to the show to attempt to destroy a person he endorsed just a year earlier, I would never trust an employee like him in a school without some extra measure of mitigation, a teacher comfortable with a gun, to protect kids when they are under an assault from bad people. That is, If we ever fully get back to school because all these lazy union employees don’t want to go to work using Covid as a cover for staying home.   And what will we do in the future when the school resource officer, unionized and terrified of Covid, calls off work the day there is a school shooting? If we rely too heavily on them, we are bound to get burnt by the general laziness of all government employees.

Old Yeller: The fight between Thomas Hall and Sheriff Jones

Why Is Sheriff Jones Going After Thomas Hall

Sheriff Jones decided to go on 700 WLW and speak disparagingly about Thomas Hall, the current House Representative of the 53rd District. I like Sheriff Jones, I hope he runs and wins a few more terms, but nobody in their right mind could support the way he attacked Thomas Hall on those radio waves to hundreds of thousands of people. Long-time readers here know that I used to be a frequent contributor on WLW, like Jones. Over time, many of my people who used to work there moved away, were fired, or otherwise changed their point of view. We separated like some kind of divorce, and I have not had much of an idea of reconciliation. I have more freedom in media with this site, so I have not returned in several years. But Jones does go on WLW quite a lot, so because I don’t pay much attention to what goes on there these days, I did not hear the original airing where Sheriff Jones disparaged Thomas Hall in many negative ways calling him a 12-year old “goof,” not just once, but many times. Still, I have often heard from many Republicans who want to defend Hall but are scared of retaliation from Jones, and I think that’s a shame. Hall certainly isn’t 12-years old. I said in the video that he was in his early thirties, but actually, he’s in his mid-twenties and is the youngest member of the current Ohio House. However, the young man is an overachiever by all measures, and his age certainly isn’t a hindrance. He has had two terms as a Madison Trustee, and now he’s in his first term as a congressman seeking a second term. 

Sheriff Jones Goes After Thomas Hall over H.B. 99

Another thing I said about Thomas is a couple of times in the video, I referred to him as Thomas More, because for a lot of reasons, I think of the writer of Utopia whenever I think of Thomas Hall. It’s been that way for a while just because of my own reading habits. There are a lot of Thomas’ in English literature; another is the character of Thomas Becket from The Canterbury Tales, who was murdered in Canterbury Cathedral by his friend Henry the II. It’s one of my favorite books, and this story keeps coming to my mind when I think of Thomas Hall and his friend and mentor, Sheriff Jones. Jones had endorsed Thomas and was mentoring him until a few things happened. Apparently, Jones didn’t like Hall’s voting record. The Sheriff had a confirmed case of heartburn over H.B. 99, Hall’s bill in congress, which set definitions for minimal teacher training to carry firearms in public schools. Jones uncharacteristically turned on Thomas Hall and made quite an exhibition about it on WLW right before Thanksgiving in 2021. I hadn’t heard it until I did an endorsement video for Thomas Hall, and he mentioned it. I had heard from several very prominent Republicans, some very close to the Sheriff, that something had gone on really bad. As I said in the video, one of them was not Senator Lang. I never put people in positions where they get caught in crossfires with each other and given the mean streak that many fear in crossing Jones, many don’t want to be a part of it. Yet many more than ten contacted me to let me know what was going on between Hall and Jones, and they weren’t happy about it.

Thomas Hall Responds to Sheriff Jones

I listened to the Jones interview with Willie, included here; then I listened to the response from Thomas Hall the next day. I played them for my wife, who loves Sheriff Jones. We talked about the interviews and thought Thomas Hall did a fantastic job. He certainly won the argument. But Jones came across as petty and even childish. My wife offered that maybe he was hurting about something else, totally unrelated. Perhaps that’s true. Whatever it is, I would suggest a few thoughts regarding the excellent Sheriff. I’ve been sideways with him a few times over things, particularly school things and union business. I still blame him for the Lakota levy passing in 2013. He has a liberal streak in him that I can’t stand, but we have buried the hatchet since then. What he did for Butler County during the Trump years has been great. A person’s body of work can’t be defined by just a few years here and there or by the grumpy old dog that starts biting people who step on a porch to sell Girl Scout cookies. I hope that Jones runs and wins more terms for as long as possible. But perhaps my wife was right about him, that something else is bothering him. 

In my book The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business, I deal with this very issue of an older generation coping with the young people biting their heels. The chapter is called “The Skill of Developed Intuition” on pg. 181. You spend your whole life getting somewhere, making yourself into the person people put on T.V. Getting invited to the White House. Where you can’t go into public without people wanting to get a picture taken with you. And suddenly, here is some 25-year-old whiz kid who suddenly does more in one year than most state reps do in a lifetime. And he’s confident and won’t kiss the ring. Deep down inside, nobody would want to see such a young person broken, but consciously, the older person wants respect because he gave it when he was younger. The aging process isn’t fair. When you can start to see the end of the tunnel, and you know it’s going to be over soon, it is painful to see intelligent young people with their whole lives in front of them getting the attention it took you a lifetime to build. Sometimes, you might be tempted to crush the young competition, show them all they don’t know yet and teach them obedience. But I would caution you not to do that. Sometimes the hardest thing to do is encourage the young people, not tear them down, but build them up. 

Old Yeller

Listening to Thomas talk about the WLW incident, I was amazed he wasn’t more upset. I would be. I carry grudges for a long time, for decades. I would not have been able to say all the nice things that Thomas said about Sheriff Jones when I did my endorsement video with him. I would have been plotting revenge and embarrassment. But obviously, Thomas Hall has had a lot of good mentors in his life, his father being one. But several other politicians for another, including Sheriff Jones. So, there are a lot of lessons here that should be observed. I would hope that Sheriff Jones wouldn’t spend all the years of his excellent branding on petty nonsense that will overshadow all the good things he has done. There are people concerned about just that very thing by many of the calls I received. But Thomas isn’t that way; he understands that politics is a blood sport, and he plays to win without getting hung up on stupid stuff. And in his mind, he already defended himself on WLW the next day. But people were confused as to why the Sheriff went after Thomas, and I would suggest that it shouldn’t ruin the reputation of the Sheriff. I don’t think we are dealing with an Old Yeller situation here. Maybe just an old dog that would love to run around like the youth do but can’t anymore. There is still good to do, and from the point of view of Thomas, he’s willing to do good wherever possible.

Mike DeWine’s Girlfriend, Amy Acton, Resigns: Their role in the international “Plandemic” isn’t over

The media made Amy Acton a star, the now resigned health director of Ohio who started the chain reaction of business shutdowns in the nation. And the great ratings for Governor DeWine, her boss in this exchange was also a creation of the media, because he did what they wanted, they being the “liberal, activist, press.” But what those two did together was against the law, several judges hearing some basic Mickey Mouse cases thus far have started to admit to. Government can’t take private property without due process and everything that Acton did and DeWine let her do during the Covid-19 lockdowns was wrong. The media loved it of course and did what they do by fanning the flames with fake poll numbers and flowery news coverage, but the actions by Acton demand a response that is not so friendly by the people impacted. It looks as if she understood a bit about what was coming and she got out of Dodge to put it lightly when she resigned as director in Ohio late last week. To get a sense of how serious the trouble is mounting against her, and against Governor DeWine listen to some key players call into the Bill Cunningham Show on 700 WLW Friday June 12th, 2020 during the last two hours of the broadcast at the link below.

There are a lot of people who are terrified of their own shadows out there, and they never got over moving out of the house with their parents, and they have replaced government with their parental childhood experiences. I would call that a psychosis, not a healthy political affiliation. There is something wrong with people who enjoy being scared all the time so that they can have a parental figure in their lives telling them what to do, “wear a mask” “stay in your homes” “socially distance from other people by 6’,” You can see who they are, they are the ones who voluntarily wear masks around, they have bought the Covid-19 nonsense hook, line and sinker. It was they who the media put on television and polled with fake statistics showing DeWine at something like an 80% approval rating—yeah, of course 80% of a room full of dumbasses wearing masks because they think the coronavirus is going to get them like some villain from the latest horror film will pad the fake news stats. The media told the story as if those losers represented all of Ohio, and they didn’t, and the hippie chick turned doctor, Amy Acton learned just a bit of that during her tenure under Mike DeWine. But not harsh enough to discourage politicians like these to avoid such a thing in the future.

Most of us are good people who trust the people we vote into power not to abuse it for some personal affliction. In DeWine’s case, I am quite certain he was in love with Amy Acton. He may not have been boinking her, but I think she was the girlfriend he never had. After all, he married his wife right out of high school—a lot of people his age did that kind of thing—and he knew her as a little girl when they were kids. So DeWine doesn’t have much experience with other women in a sexual way. He went out of his way to nominate an Obama activist as Health Director and immediately sought to make her job a much more important one than such positions typically are. Even to the extent that he sought from the legislature dictatorial emergency powers in March of 2019, one year before Covid-19 had national shutdowns of their economies, DeWine was seeking to make Amy Acton an all powerful medical activist well before the actual problem was on the horizon for most people. Of course, these people will lie about their feelings and intentions, but life experience helps us piece together the monstrosity of it all. Governor DeWine had a mental crush on Acton and he wanted her to be flirty and close to him. She knew what Dr. Fauci and many others were preparing to do in the medical community. After all, Hollywood was in on it, there was going to be a manufactured crises of some kind to unite the world under Agenda 21 objectives, so she had knowledge of the “Plandemic” from her international collaborators at the World Health Organization, the same places Doctor Fauci was speaking with. And to do her part, she could seduce the Governor who was a very willing participant.

When people in powerful positions are caught in a lie, they attempt to conceal it with perpetual emergencies. That is actually a strategy revealed by the famous Harvard Law paper on Change Agency by Kotter that is extremely well read. But even more so, they seek to hide crimes and mental malfunctions behind their title, and when Nino Vitale explained to Bill Cunningham a conference call with the governor on the matter of Amy Acton, DeWine started cussing and carrying on in an intimidating way. I had a friend who was also there in the room when Nino heard this and I was told the same thing weeks ago, so I know Vitale is telling the truth. This is the Mike DeWine that most people don’t see. But a half a million people did hear it for themselves when DeWine’s wife told on Bill Cunningham for talking about Amy Acton on 700 WLW weeks ago and she had the Governor call to defend his health director with very aggressive language on the air. So Governor DeWine was on his best behavior, but he does attempt to intimidate and harass people into compliance which I find funny for such a little guy. That kind of stuff never works with me, so I wonder how nobody has kicked his little ass after all these years. Somebody should have challenged him a long time ago so he wouldn’t have been so cocky during his first terms as Ohio governor where he used a crises of Covid-19 to be close to the ta tas of Amy Acton. As a man and someone who knows people very well, I am 100% sure that DeWine’s unconstitutional actions over this coronavirus was because he was trying to impress Amy Acton, the girlfriend he never let himself have. And Amy Acton, like a common street whore was willing to do anything for the cause of more liberal medical expansion and to play her part in the coming “Plandemic.” The media did their part by making heroes out of these idiots, and the rest of us were caught flatfooted and wondering what the Hell happened.

For all that many laws were broken and people were severely let down. Amy Acton and her emotional boyfriend Mike DeWine think that the pain will go away if she steps down, it won’t. I always tried to warn those two that there would be a day of reckoning, and that’s where we are now. Hell is coming to roast them legally and spiritually and it doesn’t matter that she has stepped down. She cost Ohio literally billions of dollars, likely more than that, over her role in the international Plandemic which was planned by her friends at the WHO and the CDC and someone must pay. Which of course her face was plastered all over everything, thanks to the media that screwed her over the same way she did Governor DeWine. And fellow Republicans let down DeWine because at some point, even though he’s a 70 something year old man, someone should have taken DeWine to a strip joint so he could learn that the girls talk nice to everyone, if they are tipping. Girls like Acton will flirt with the best of them for a good job and a chance to unleash their political activism. Every man and woman who finds themselves in a powerful position at some point in their life needs to understand the nature of other human beings, and clearly when it came to Amy Acton, Governor DeWine wanted to be fooled the way a schoolboy does with those first girlfriends which he never had leaving him extremely vulnerable as an adult to insurgence of progressivism who seek to destroy our rules of law by emotional sentiment and fear.

George Lang on the Scott Sloan Show on WLW Radio: Defending Senate Bill 1

It was great to hear George Lang, who is running for the 4th District senate seat in Ohio as the Republican representative give an update to House Bill 1 on the Scott Sloan Show on WLW. Currently George is the 52nd representative of the House in Ohio so he was part of the instigation of that bill which intends to put some shackles on the lunatic health director of Ohio, Amy Acton who has essentially led all states in America with her draconian lockdowns. You can hear that great interview on that show below at the 18:30 mark of the 5/6/20 broadcast. The interview was actually on the 7th but whoever set up the podcast put in the date for the previous day. Now a word of warning to my longtime readers, this is not the same Scott Sloan that used to put me on all the time over school levy issues. That guy is long gone, and he left when Darryl Parks lost his key position as the program manager for the station. The physical guy is the same, but people do change over time and this Scott Sloan is a much softer version. Hearing him tell the story, it has something to do with his wife who is on Clear Channel radio often these days. But the interview is still good and worth listening to in order to understand what needs to happen to Ohio government in the wake of the lockdowns that we have all experienced which have destroyed the economy.

Its also no secret that I like George Lang an awful lot. But we are not carbon copies of each other. George clearly has his own thoughts about things. It is my mind that Governor DeWine should be impeached for what he did under the Covid-19 CDC mandated pandemic, especially how he let a liberal Obama health director in Amy Acton take over and run our state straight into the ground with all the terrifying liberal activism that was straight out of that previous president’s administration. George is much more willing to give people a fair shake and to assume the best in people, which is why he is a fantastic politician who represents Butler County, Ohio wonderfully. What George and I agree on is the fundamentals of governance, which was on clear display during the interview, people don’t need government to tell them how to wipe their ass, how to buy food, and to act like their mom every day telling them to wash their hands. Government should not micromanage people, even in a crisis. And George is one of the most articulate members of the Ohio House in that regard, he gets “it” philosophically and is a real treasure in Butler County.

Of course Scott Sloan is all about fairness these days and he questioned the political motives for why the Ohio House moved forward this past week with the bill that became Senate Bill 1, to pull back on the draconian powers that give Amy Acton so much abusive power during a health crises. Sloan wanted to believe the move was purely political particularly since Governor DeWine has promised to veto the bill the moment it hits his desk. That is a fight that will now rage quite long and this is just the start of it. Under emergency powers in Ohio the law gives someone like Amy Acton way too much power, it goes back to legislation that is over 100 years old when representatives couldn’t move to the capital to vote so easily. What Senate Bill 1 does is cut down the time of those emergency powers to 14 days instead of the infinite time that is currently allotted. Nobody in their right mind would ever figure there would be an Obama abortion/climate activist on the administration of a Republican governor, but there’s a first time for everything and now that we’ve seen it, we have to act on it. To answer Sloan’s question, why now, well, this was the first opportunity for the House to convene since the emergency health directive locked everyone in their homes for months, and much of that was Mike DeWine playing politics with the matter. So long as he held emergency powers, he was safe from these kinds of reprimands from congress, he is not eager to give back that power, because there will be lots of hell to pay for many years to come because of the bad decisions he has made which led to this point.

Also from Sloan’s point of view, he represents a large part of the population that doesn’t know what to think about the Covid-19 virus. People like me are way too far in front of it to talk about how people feel about it, which Sloan is one of those members. Most people out there want to believe in “leaders” to tell them things. They don’t want to be leaders in their life, so they put a disproportionate trust in authority figures and it is quite a shock to them that someone like Amy Acton might have had malicious intentions behind her lockdown measures. George of course gives her the benefit of doubt just as he does the Governor. The biggest crime Acton committed was that she’s a liberal, she thinks like one, acts like one and solves problems like one. George blames DeWine for putting her in that seat to begin with, especially knowing her manner of thinking. Scott Sloan looks at her as doing the best job possible under the difficult circumstances. I look at it all as a vast scheme from China to destroy our American economy. That is a platform of thought that is well beyond where WLW is willing to go these days. To accept that is a bridge too far for most people’s daily lives, and most people just can’t handle that lack of trust for any authority figure.

But that comes back to the heart of why Senate Bill 1 is so important. We just can’t have health directors running our economy for longer than 14 days. If a governor can’t articulate a state of emergency in that period of time, then there are bigger problems. The worst part of the coronavirus was that nobody in leadership anywhere in the world could put a timetable to when the virus was going to be contained. Once they had a taste of the power, few governors wanted to give it back. This bill forces a legislative evaluation to renew those powers which is why DeWine is against it. It’s a check on his power that he doesn’t want. Hopefully there are enough votes from Democrats to override his veto, because if there was ever clear evidence that there needs to be checks on power, it comes out of this whole Covid-19 mess. And that should be something that everyone can agree on. Senate Bill 1 is not a political stunt, it was the first opportunity for the legislature to stick up for themselves and get Ohio moving back in the right direction after clearly bad decisions by the DeWine administration. Sure we know now in hindsight that the reaction to Covid-19 was overblown. Yet DeWine needed help in making decisions that could have saved more lives and minimized greatly the impact to the budget that are about to become far worse than the Covid-19 virus. As George put the blame for Amy Acton on Mike DeWine’s shoulders, we must all prevent such single points of failure in the future, especially when liberals get so much power so quickly and end up running all our lives. And that is what this whole story is all about no matter where people are on the political spectrum. In the future, someone needs to hit the brakes faster, and Senate Bill 1 is all about that, and the House couldn’t have introduced it faster.
