The Ohio Senate campaigns of Democrat Sherrod Brown and Republican Sen. Jon Husted both are running ads accusing their rival of receiving six-figure donations from people they call “associates” of disgraced financier and deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

The files include the names of hundreds of people, some incidentally mentioned and others close to Epstein. Among them is Ohio billionaire and political activist Les Wexner, who…
From Texas Supreme Court Justice Evan Young’s majority opinion Friday in In the Interest of H.S.:Few principles in our history and traditions are as deeply rooted as the sanctity of the family.

Image by David Everett Strickler. Public support for the Impeachment of Donald J. Trump is growing by the day. A March 9, 2026, Task Force report by the New York City Bar – dominated by powerful corporate lawyers – was titled “The Crisis Deepens: Congress Must Act Now to Address Escalating Abuses of Executive Power.” The recommendation – Immediate Impeachment of Donald Trump. I don’t recall a division on such a serious domestic policy stand between citizen groups, allied with the Democratic Party on one side and the public and a major corporate bar association on the other side. Several leaders…
