Dr. Amy Acton wasn’t just giving press-conference advice during COVID. She signed statewide health orders carrying the force of law under Ohio’s emergency powers.
Under Gov. Mike DeWine, Acton ordered or signed orders that:
1) Restricted mass gatherings first to 100, then 50, then 10 people.
2) Closed Ohio K-12 school buildings.
3) Restricted nursing-home and long-term-care visitation.
4) Closed bars (at 10pm) and restaurants to dine-in customers.
5) Restricted elective surgeries and procedures.
6) Helped shut down in-person voting for the March 17, 2020 primary.
7) Ordered Ohioans to STAY HOME except for defined essential activities.
8) Ordered nonessential businesses and operations to cease.
9) Required social distancing and defined “essential” businesses.
10) Restricted childcare facilities.
11) Extended and modified business restrictions during reopening.
12) Imposed workplace/sector specific COVID requirements.
Later authorized phased reopening of restaurants, bars and other facilities under mandatory health requirements.
And the Stay-at-Home Order actually said it plainly: “all individuals currently living within the State of Ohio are ordered to stay at home.”
These weren’t rumors. They were written Director’s Orders signed by Amy Acton.
You can debate whether the restrictions were justified, but pretending they didn’t happen, or pretending Acton had no role in them, isn’t history.
The receipts are in the state’s own records.
Outstanding soldier!
A soldier guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier issued a verbal reprimand to a group of advisers and staffers with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth following a Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery. As the group broke from taking photos, a loud laugh could be heard, and the soldier guarding the tomb shouted: “All visitors will maintain an atmosphere of silence and respect at all times.”

Just turned on the @KingsOfLeon Album and 10 seconds into it, just an incredible vibe.
"My Whole World" is going to be a classic. Well done boys.

If you're Catholic and you're doing literally anything to "celebrate" Diwali today, no matter how small, you need to go to confession immediately.

As Veterans Day approaches I’m reminiscing on shit from over a decade ago.
I received the Combat Medic Badge. At the time, out of all the other awards, this one was the one that made me feel like I truly made it into the club.
In medic school in San Antonio, Texas we would walk through the chow hall in a perfect line. Step, wait, step. It wasn’t basic training shit, but it was ordered. One thing I always noticed was a framed poster of a combat medic who earned the badge three times. In WW2, Korea, and Vietnam. It was a reminder of why we do what we do. Preserving life was our mission.
What some may not know is that as an Army medic we are obliged to also treat the enemy. For me, that was something I was willing and able to do. Wayne E. Slagel was willing to do that his whole life. 🇺🇸
