Will the Real Bryan Williams Please Stand Up? Part 2

 

Knowing Summit County GOP Chairman Bryan William has funneled (laundered) $70,000 of illegal campaign donations from ECOT founder & First Energy through his Summit GOP coffers to indicted Speaker Larry Householder in 2017, giving $155, 000 for his guy Mike DeWine in 2018, received a single donation of $901,638.01 in 2022 but won only 6 of 29 races, hired an Executive Director that has an embezzlement conviction and uses the Summit County GOP finances in what some describe as a personal slush fund, several members of the Summit County GOP Central Committee have called for a complete forensic audit of the Summit County GOP books.

And much like the calls from some of the Ohio Republican Party State Central Committee members calls for an audit of the state party books - the calls for an audit of his Summit County GOP books have been ignored by Chair Bryan Williams.

Expenses from ’21 and ’22 campaign finance reports total $39.097.64 with $3,906.68 for food, $8,321.87 for vehicle expenses. See below for a full breakdown.

Biden Arm-Twisting Update: Legal Decisions That Matter

    During your post-turkey tryptophan coma, below is a breakdown on the arm-twisting Title IX rulings and litigation setting legal precedence. 

Title VII v Title IX 

    Title VII is a federal law that prohibits discrimination in employment on the basis of sex, as well as race, color, national origin and religion. Title IX is a federal law that prohibits sex discrimination in education, covering all staff and students in any educational institution or program that receives federal funds.

   Bostock v Clayton County is a Title VII case cited throughout all government agencies as a result of the Biden Administration Announcement on Advancing Equity Through the Federal Government. The Administration's only flaw in their diabolical scheme is you can not apply Title VII to Title IX. Bostock applies to neither Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act nor Title IX, or any other non-Title VII statute!  

    How do we know that? The Neese Opinion and Order, referenced below, says it on page eight laying out reasoning through page twelve.

Title IX

      In the case, Franciscan Alliance v Becca, two Texas physicians filed lawsuits against the United States Department of Health and Human Services [HHS]. This case was based on  arm-twisting that began under the Obama Administration in May of 2016. 

    Under section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) physicians would be forced to perform body modifying and life altering surgical procedures on those suffering from gender dysphoria. The physicians argued this would create irreversible infertility and irrepressible harm to their patients.

  Because the litigation process is slow, many twists and turns have played out in real-time as this case has been argued since 2016, when originally filed.

    The take away here is this, the merits are Franciscan Alliance Administrative Procedures Act (APA) claim is moot, its Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) claim is not.  

What Does That Mean? 

    In the opinion it reads as follows on page 12: 

"Title IX reads no person "shall on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance [except as provided throughout the statute]. 20 U. S. C. 1681(a). Because Title IX does not define "on the basis of sex," the Court must construe the phrase."6   

    Pay attention to the footnote 6 here:

 "Congress enacted Title IX 1972. 20 U.S.C. 1681. At that time "sex" was commonly understood to refer to physiological differences between men and women ---- particularly with respect to reproductive function. See e.g., Sex, AMERICAN HERITAGE DICTIONARY 1187 (1976) ("The property or quality by which organisms are classified by reproductive functions.)"; Sex WEBSTER'S THIRD NEW INTERNATIONAL DICTIONARY 2081 (1971)    ("The sum of the morphological, physiological, and behavioral peculiarities of living beings that subserves biparental reproduction with its concominant genetic segregation and recombination which underlie most evolutionary change. . . .)"; Sex, 9 OXFORD ENGLISH DICTIONARY 578 (1961) ("The sum of those differences in the structure and function in the reproductive organs on the grounds on which are beings are distinguished male and female, and of the other physiological differences consequent on these.)". The court replies on the same definitions of "sex" in this case."   

•    "Categorizing people based on their genitalia" being a common mantra of those within the gender spectrum camp, on the basis of reproductive function, biological chromosomal characteristics xx and xy, the physiological differences between male and female, and traditional meaning/intent of sex under Title IX seems irrefutable here.

            Footnote 6 goes on: 

"Both parties proceed with the assumption that "sex" as used in Title IX, means biological. See e.g., ECF 47 at 8, 13; ECF No. 56 at 25 & n. 5, (But "Defendants do not concede that this interpretation of 'sex' is correct."). ef. Bostock, 140 S. Ct. at 1746-47. ("We agree that homosexuality and transgender status are distinct concepts from sex"); Grimm, 972 F.3d at 632 (Niemeyer, J., dissenting)("As several sources make clear, the term 'sex' in this context must be understood as referring to the traditional biological indicators that distinguish a male from a female, not the persons internal sense of being male or female, or their outward presentation of that internally felt sense.") Parties only dispute whether Title IX's prohibition of discrimination "on the basis of sex" prohibits discrimination on the basis of *SOGI." 

* Sexual orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI)  

•    It continues further, into page 13 of footnote 6, the Department of Education overreach that would have to be and is being litigated separately [in U.S. District Court for Southern Ohio]:

"Notably, other federal agencies---including the Department of Education---have proposed regulations redefining "sex" in Title IX to include "sexual orientation" and "gender identity."  See Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Sex in Education Programs or Activities Receiving Federal Financial Assistance, 87 Fed. Reg. 41390, 41391 (July 12, 2022). Those regulations are not an issue here and the court does not opine on their validity or correctness of their interpretation."

     How does the Department of Health and Human Services have the legal authority to redefine or reinterpret a long standing legal doctrine? It doesn't!

    Ohioans, how does the Ohio Department of Education, Superintendent of Public Instruction, Local School Board, or Local District Superintendents have the legal authority to redefine or reinterpret Title IX as it applies to Education Programs or Activities Receiving Federal Financial Assistance?  

IT DOESN'T!

Stay focused Ohio . . .

 

    

Title IX: Time and Pressure

    The Title IX arm-twisting continues to make its way through Ohio political factions. This month has seen much debate amongst the Ohio Department of Education of Brendan Shea’s Resolution and several amendments including the Toal, Toal #2, McQuire, Manchester and Miranda versions including the arrival of the ORP's adopted version.

• See October 31st Executive Committee meeting minutes of the State Board of Education   

 

Listen below as State Board Member Jenny Kilgore explains the original intent of Title IX in the October 31st Executive Committee Meeting

 

Member Kilgore reiterated similar sentiments on November 14th in the Regular Board Meeting:

    " Thank you, I DO support Mr. (Shae's) Toal’s proposal in furtherance of the Ohio General Assembly push back; of the federal government Title IX redefinition of biological sex/gender and egregiously connecting compliance to eligibility for student free lunch funds. The new Title IX language circumvents parental responsibility and obligation for nurture & trust of their own progeny. 

    Having examined the document, I see no restrictions for any segment of our student population outside common sense, defending the interests of the citizens of the State of Ohio, or any group put in harm. Title IX should remain, after all of its 50 years, a document specific to women’s issues, rights, & privileges. The understanding to the purpose of this document is to acknowledge & protect the intent of the original Title IX premise to provide fair & equal opportunity for women athletes to compete & earn college scholarships; AND further to support the Ohio General Assembly & "push back" against the federal government's Title IX redefinition of biological sex/gender, AND egregiously connecting ‘compliance to the revisions’ to be eligible for student free lunch funds. 

    In addition, the Biden administration, as part of the executive branch, is over-reaching its power & does not have the authority to make such legislative changes. I, unequivocally, as do the majority of my constituents, do not support the expansion of the parameters of the federal version of Title IX & explicitly object to ‘student free lunch funds’ inappropriately subject to compliance." 

    Making clear her opposition on the basic principles of parental rights, local control, and government over reach. 

    Schools ARE NOT subject to creating, adopting, or changing policy in fear of losing federal funding as these issues are being litigated. Ohio Attorney General Yost in concert with 20 other state Attorney General's argue, this could keep much-needed federal dollars "meant to feed needy children" from being distributed if schools don't adopt "the administration’s preferred policies regarding gender identity, potentially including those involving access to girls’ bathrooms and girls’ athletics."

     These actions seem inconsistent given the Biden Administration's push toward "equity and fairness" via Executive Order at "the enormous cost of ....persistent poverty" while leveraging school funding [free and reduced lunch programs] meant to feed low-income children already experiencing food insecurity [a lack of consistent access to enough food for every person in a household]. 

In Ohio we call it hypocritical! Stay Focused Ohio...

     

     

 

     

 

    

Where Main Street Meets Mean Street

 

    In recent weeks candidate for Secretary of State, Tersephore Maras has repeatedly leveraged her position as a candidate to intimidate and threaten legal action in the form of a lawsuit against Katie and those she works with. We have put out information regarding her sister’s professional background and certifications that Maras herself claims to hold. 

    Yesterday evening,  Katie received a message from one of Maras followers from the Telegram group New Ohio. This message stated Maras wanted to have a message delivered. This message was as follows, she claims to have found an alternate Facebook profile for Kathleen. Neither Katie nor I have alternate Facebook accounts. Please see accusations below from Maras last night, to learn what has unhinged Tore Maras. Please also see attached article to learn about her sister Marie Helen Maras.

•  Woman Behind the Curtain: Tore Maras or Marie Helen Maras
•  Tore Maras Unhinged  

    Not only that, Maras eludes to Katie's children, which are not old enough to vote in Ohio. This isn't the first time Maras has threatened those who push back with factual information. Please see the interview where Tore explains threatening Ruth Ann Buffalo's children, a Native-American North Dakota House of Representative congresswomen.  We don't simply want to expose Maras for the deceptive candidate she is, but we wish her to be ran out of Ohio on a rail, as she was by the good citizens of North Dakota!

 

  

 

   

 

 Katie & I have been told numerous times over the last year that we are “MEAN”. This has inspired us to form our own Mean Street conglomerate. We are already at the intersection of Idiotic & Crazy Street here in Ohio. We hope you can make room for Mean Street, because hard truths are required today in Ohio politics. Tore Maras can reach out to either myself or Katie at any point for a conversation, instead she chooses to send messages and perpetuate categorically false disinformation to her followers.

We look forward to our future endeavors. Stay Focused Ohio.....

 

Ohio Department of Education State Board Races

The state school board is made up of 19 members, 11 elected members and 8 appointed by the Governor. 

In a statement released in September from elected State Board of Education Members Christina Collins,  Meryl Johnson, Antoinette Miranda, and Michelle Newman expressed their "embarrassment" with the Shea Title IX Resolution stating it was "full of factual errors and religious pedagogy." Apparently these members find sincerely held religious beliefs under Ohio law and biological sex being an objective, scientific fact triggering. These board members DID get one thing right in their statement they SHOULD be spending their time discussing opportunities for Ohio's children in literacy, career readiness, school safety, preschool access, and STEM development rather than the CASEL approved SEL curriculum implemented during their tenure meant to utilize SEL as a lever for equity and social justice. 

It is time to engage and approach these state school board elections as we would all other races. We must understand how they are elected, which communities/counties they serve, and when we vote for them.

November Ballot Candidates 

  .

State Board of Education Maps

District 2 candidates: District 2 is made up of Senate districts 2, 11 and 13. This contains Erie, Huron, Lorain, Lucas, Ottawa and Wood.

Sarah McGervey (R) is a middle school teacher with a social media presence who wishes to ensure local control of schools, protect parents rights in schools, and revise standardized testing to more accurately reflect student knowledge. No doubt Sarah will have a useful resource in Kathleen McGervey, her mother, given her tenure on the State Board of Education serving District 2 from 2010 to 2018 . On McGervey's Facebook page, she shared, "We need to protect scientific factual information regarding biology, as well as -women’s rights in school and sports." 

• McGervey seems a strong advocate standing against CRT and comprehensive sexual education. She seems like the kind of candidate you would want in your mom tribe, especially if you have daughters.
  

Teresa Fedor (D) is a present member of the Ohio State Senate representing Senate District 11, a former member of the Ohio House of Representatives for the 45th and 47th House District from 2011-2018, and recently defeated in the May 3rd primary as John Cranley's running mate for Lt. Governor. Fedor recently went on the record regarding Shea's Title IX Resolution saying, "This resolution hides under a very thin veil of ‘supporting families,’ but we must call it what it is: an unnecessary, unprovoked attack on Ohio’s children. The resolution is harassment — full stop. If adopted, our youth will be pushed into social isolation, stigmatization, bullying and potentially even self-harm."  Fedor is endorsed by the Ohio Federation of Teachers, a teachers union.

• Her comments ignore gender affirmation may have little to no effect on these individuals mental health according to key corrections of an American Journal of Psychiatry study. This candidate seems a habitual candidate and endorsments by teachers unions is in the negative column as these unions have seemingly forgotten they educate students not execute leftists agendas. 

District 3 candidates: District 3 is made up of Senate Districts 4, 5, and 6. This contains Butler, Preble, Montgomery, and Miami.  

incumbent Charlotte McQuire (R) is running uncontested.  Charlotte has worked for over 40 years in nonprofit organizations and government, including as community affairs director for Dayton and is affiliated with Dayton Right To Life. She and her husband launched the Excel Afterschool Program, which assists parents to help improve elementary school achievement and attendance. She and her husband also founded and lead a nondenominational church.

District 4 candidates: District 4 is made up of Senate Districts 7, 8, and 9. This contains Warren and Hamilton counties.

 incumbent Jenny Kilgore (R) teaches undergraduate education majors at Miami University and education graduate students at Indiana Wesleyan. Kilgore has been a strong and outspoken member on the board focusing on keeping the schools free from distraction and focusing on academics rather than indoctrination. 

• Jenny seems a consistent calm voice of reason, rational logic, and common sense. She is a no nonsense candidate that clearly and concisely conveys her position. 

Katie Hofmann (D) taught music in Cincinnati City Schools for over 30 years. She has been involved with the Cincinnati teachers union for decades and served as the collective bargaining chair for the teachers' union previously. Hoffman has secured endorsements from Ohio Federation of Teachers, Cincinnati Women's Political Caucus, and Ohio Education Association.  

• This candidate was difficult to research. Beyond her union circle and a few facebook posts, she has said little about her candidacy.
   

District 9 candidates: District 9 is made up of Senate Districts 18, 29, 28, and 32. This contains Stark, Portage, Trumble, Ashtabula, Lake, and the east side of Geauga county. `

incumbent John Hagan (R) has also been a strong outspoken leader among board members speaking at an anti-CRT rally in June and participating in education discussion panels across the state. Most recently prepared to support Shea's Title IX Resolution, Hagan was recently quoted as saying, "If the intent is to kill this [Shea's Title IX Resolution], and I believe it is, then this is the motion you want to vote for, to send it to committee [Executive Committee]." 

• Hagan seems a strong fatherly presence on the board. Watching and listening to him on discussion panels he seems solid and unwaivering in his desire to bring the board back to serving students first.  

Robert Fulton (party affiliation unknown) is a retired teacher serving on the Streetsboro School District Board of Education. Fulton plans to help develop a policy for equal funding across all school districts, to strengthen education to incentivize corporations to stay or relocate to Ohio, and wants to work on developing internships for students. He would also like teachers to be able to have input when determining whether a child is proficient on standardized testing. The Repository did an interview with Fulton you can read here. 

• This candidate was also difficult to research dispite having served in neighboring local districts that surroung my own. Robert has no social media presence beyond the Women's League of Voter survey he filled out, his school board directory information, and the Repository interview.
  

 District 10: District 10 is made up of Senate districts 21, 27 and 28. This contains the east side of Cuyahoga County, west side of Geauga County, and all of both Summit and Portage counties.

incumbent Tim Miller (R) was appointed to the State Board of Education by Governor DeWine on Jan. 8, 2021, to complete the last two years of a four-year term. Tim currently serves as Vice Chair of the Emerging Issues and Operational Standards Committee, is a member of the Budget Committee, a member of the Teaching Leading and Learning Committee, a member of the EMIS Committee, and is part of the Business Partnership Strategies workgroup. Tim recently stated of Shea's Title IX Resolution, "I think we owe the people a more open discussion on this....These kids exists. And there's been absolutely no discussion about what we can do for these kids. That bothers me more than anything else in this whole discussion." 

• No one is saying kids aren't confused about their "gender identity" these days, they aren't unicorns (well maybe 😏). How could we go wrong with "intersectionality" and "the gender spectrum" muddying biological gender in Ohio schools!?! Expecting  more from Tim in the future goes without saying. 
  

Cierra Lynch Shehorn (R) is no stranger to politics having worked as a regional field director for the Ohio Republican Party in 2018, a government relations staff assistant with a government relations firm, and a assistant to the Executive Director and Stakeholder Liaison at the State Medical Board of Ohio. Lynch Shehorn refers to herself as the "student first candidate fighting for common-sense decisions at the state level that benefit students, parents and taxpayers.”  Lynch Shehorn is married to Andrew Shehorn, the Assistant Director of the Summit County Board of Elections and the Executive Director of the Summit County GOP, whom she is endorsed by. 

• A potentially good person, this candidate has the pedigree of a Summit County swamper in her early to late 20's. Having no children herself, Shehorn has no pony in the race other than her political career. Lynch has experience in media and marketing which lends to her young professional Republican appeal, however, will she be able to stand against the establishment she serves?
  

Tom Jackson (D) has a degree in education and is on the Solon City Schools Strategic Planning team and Chairman of the Board of the Solon Chamber of Commerce. Find Tom's endorsements here, which includes Ohio Federation of Teachers. Recently interviewed, here is what Tom had to say on education, "Ohio legislators are attempting to defund public education so it’s time to put folks like me in a position to advocate for fair school funding, better working and learning conditions, and upgrading our school buildings to meet the needs of the future.” 

• Clearly he forgot the 4.4 billion in pandemic relief funding Ohio schools were infused with. Some districts received sums amounting to 50% or more of the cost to operate their schools for a year. While 20% must be used to address learning setbacks, the rest can be used on nearly any cost school officials deem “reasonable and necessary.”   

As discussed above, these races matter to protect the innocents of our children and to get back to the basics of reading, writing, and arithmetic in Ohio schools rather than radical gender bending political agendas and SEL curriculum! We are only as good as the candidates we put into these races. We can not continue to "hold our nose and vote for...." because the lesser of two evils is still evil. Quality candidates are key! You can find each state board members terms on their biographies here. Get involved, go to a school board meeting, engage the process.  Local school board races happen in odd number years and 2023 is around the corner! 

Stay focused Ohio.....

Action Alert: Stop Biden's Arm-Twisting of Ohio Schools!

Once again President Biden and the liberal left show they will stop at nothing when it comes to forcing their social engineering on the masses! 

In response to President Biden using & perverting the intent of Title IX to attack and deprive vulnerable children with food insecurities of necessary nutrition assistance to arm-twist his gender bending policies, Ohio Department of Education State Board Member, Brendan Shea, drafted a straightforward Resolution rejecting it. 

The Resolution to Support Parents, Schools, and Districts in Rejecting Harmful, Coercive, and Burdensome Gender Identity Policies was amended during the meeting in an attempt to water it down. Yet in it's watered down form the State Board of Education lacked the spine necessary to protect our children and referred it back to the Executive Committee at the end of the day. 

You can watch the entire meeting at The Ohio Channel with discussion opening regarding the Resolution at just after 2:00:00 and the vote at 7:01:22 mark. 

Now more than ever in the name of our children it is time for parents and patriots alike to again use our voices to stand up to these weak kneed board members and express Ohioans values to vote this Resolution out of committee unchanged!
