“This administration is populated by people who’ve spent their careers bashing government. They’re not just small-government conservatives—they’re Grover Norquist, strangle-it-in-the-bathtub conservatives. It’s a cognitive disconnect for them to be able to do something well in an arena that they have so derided and reviled all these years.”

The Buckeye State

Just checking in on my old home state:
The Columbus Dispatch is reporting Monday that statewide Republican candidates and the state GOP received at least $200,000 in contributions from about 50 brokers.

The brokers invest money for the state Bureau of Workers' Compensation.

That figure does not include contributions totaling more than $121,000 from Tom Noe. His investment of $55 million in rare coins for the bureau created a scandal with $10 million of the coins now missing.
