"Because at the end of the day, what really makes anybody qualified for any job?" Kristi Noem's 28-year-old aide, Madison Sheahan, wasted $2.25 million on unusable ICE vehicles in a non-compete contract with MAGA Trump GOP donor Rick Hendrick, owner of Hendrick Motorsports for 25 Chevrolet Tahoes. The 28-year-old Sheahan graduated from Ohio State in 2019 and left ICE in January to run for Congress in #Ohio. She was Noem's political director from February 2021 to January 2024. In 2025, she became deputy director if #ICE. "I absolutely think I’m qualified for the job," Sheahan said last year when questioned about her lack of credentials.

Another round of scammers. Beware of Scammers Claiming to be Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles texting you saying you owe a ticket and to pay or lose your license immediately. #Phishing #Infosec #Scam The #Scam was really bad in the summer of 2025. The #Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) has received reports of a possible texting scam being perpetrated on Ohioans today from scammers claiming to be from the State of Ohio. Residents have reported receiving text messages from scammers informing the recipients that they have an outstanding parking ticket. The text then instructs the recipient to pay immediately to avoid a license suspension. This particular scam is a phishing attempt that is being reported by drivers nationwide and is designed to trick residents into giving up personal or financial information. “If you receive this text, do not fall for this scam,” said Ohio BMV Registrar Charlie Norman. “Do not click any links, do not scan the QR code, and immediately delete the text. Ohio BMV will never send you a text demanding payment or requesting your personal information.”

2/ Update: Once it got through the #Ohio House, it didn't take long for it to go through and get to Gov DeWine. I guess if voters want Rank Choice Voting, they'll have to do it with a ballot initiative. #Voting #USPol :ohio2: Ohio lawmakers send bill banning ranked choice to the governor https://ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/03/05/ohio-lawmakers-send-bill-banning-ranked-choice-to-the-governor/

Afroman heads to court this month after deputies sued him for turning their unfounded raid on his home into viral music videos that exposed their faces and actions when he used his security camera footage of the raid. The trial begins March 16 in Adams County, #Ohio, where the legal battle between the rapper and law enforcement has become a test case for free speech rights in the digital age. Afroman’s argument is straightforward: he documented what happened to him and turned his story into art. #Law #FreeSpeech #Music The music video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oponIfu5L3Y The article: https://allhiphop.com/news/afroman-battles-deputies-in-court-over-viral-music-video-from-home-raid/

The story of the Great Lakes – its waters, its people, its wildlife – is still unfolding." #wildlife #otter #greatlakes #Ohio #ontario #Michigan #newyork #cleanwater #waterquality #pollution #habitat #ecology #Minnesota https://www.rewildingmag.com/the-river-otters-remarkable-comeback/
