“Everyone should be able to use the bathroom without being the target of bullying – from their peers, and especially from state legislators,” Kaleidoscope Executive Director Erin Upchurch said in a statement.

“This bill has nothing to do with student safety and everything to do with political opportunism,” Ohio Federation of Teachers President Melissa Cropper said in a statement. “There is no epidemic of student assaults in bathrooms and locker rooms.”

Today, as we honor the sacrifices made by our veterans, let’s commit to action, not just words. Every day, 17 veterans lose their lives to suicide—a sobering statistic that demands our attention and support. Veterans deserve more than parades and “thank yous.” They need accessible mental health resources, community care, and a promise that we stand by them, always.

At 13 Creeks, we are proud to support veterans in the Ohio Valley and beyond. If you or someone you know is struggling, the Veterans Crisis Line is here: Dial 988, then Press 1. A simple phone call could be their last line of defense.

Let’s show our gratitude by making a real difference.

Upper Ohio Valley History

September 30, 1908, thirty indigenous descendants of the Great Chief Cornplanter arrived in Pittsburgh, PA on the city’s Sesquicentennial.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A video purporting to depict voter fraud in Georgia is fake and the work of “Russian influence actors,” U.S. intelligence officials said Friday as they warned that foreign efforts to undermine faith in the integrity of next week’s elections may persist long after votes have been cast.

The announcement that the video was fake represented an effort by the FBI and other federal agencies, four days before Tuesday’s elections, to combat foreign disinformation by calling it out rather than letting it spread for days unchecked. It follows a similar statement last week that also attributed to Russian actors a widely circulated video falsely depicting mail-in ballots for Donald Trump being destroyed in Pennsylvania.

The 20-second video, which began circulating on the social media platform X on Thursday afternoon, shows someone who describes himself as a Haitian immigrant talking about how he’s intending to vote multiple times in two Georgia counties for Vice President Kamala Harris.

Trump is losing Pennsylvania (from Reddit)

He's been encouraging 'early voting' or
'voting however you can! I don't think he realizes PA doesn't have traditional early voting. However, voters can go to county elections offices and request a mail ballot in person, receive it immediately, and then fill it out there and submit it or take it home to fill out and mail/drop it.
So all these people were lined up yesterday for what was the mail ballot deadline.and of course, these offices are not built to handle huge lines of voters. The process is designed for people who don't have internet access or other issues that prevent them from requesting online.
One person in line yesterday answered the question of why they were all waiting there
"He told us to vote early, so we're voting early." (Yes, just 'he, no name. Like a cult leader or supreme being.) many people, when they got to the front, and realized they were just getting mail ballots, were confused and annoyed.

But administrators started closing the lines early so they'd have time to process everyone and people flipped out. But again, because these aren't traditional polling sites, the laws about 'anyone in line by X:00 must be allowed to vote' don't apply. People of course, could have requested a ballot online, and can still vote in person.

The best part is Trump is trying to create the same 'red mirage' scenario as 2020. But all these PA magas voting 'early' are just submitting mail ballots, which can't be opened until morning of 11/5 and can't be counted until polls close on 11/5. (This is probably why GOP mail ballot numbers are so much higher in the state this year too.)

In any event, the end result is chaos, which works in favor of what Trump likely wants.
