  • Legislative Report
    Legislative Report 11/4/2019 BALLOT ISSUES While the federal government does provide protections against foreign entities gaining control of critical infrastructure in Ohio and across the U.S., the Buckeye State should adopt a constitutional amendment to better protect its power plants, electric transmission lines, oil and gas pipelines and water treatment plants, Reps. Don Manning (R-New Middletown) and Jamie Callender (R-Concord) said Wednesday. Speaking to the House Energy and Natural Resources Committee during the panel's first hearing on HJR2, Manning said they have been "troubled by the growing trend of foreign entities acquiring or financing some of our country's most critical infrastructure," so they'd like to place the "Ohio Critical Infrastructure Protection Amendment" (OCIPA) on the November 2020 ballot. FirstEnergy Solutions (FES) says the state must quash the referendum campaign against HB6 (Callender-Wilkin) energy subsidies once and for all or risk losing its two nuclear power plants and their half billion dollars in annual gross domestic product (GDP). The company lodged a second request this week for expedited briefings in State ex rel. FES v. Ohioans Against Corporate Bailouts after its first attempt failed in early September. The Ohio Supreme Court answered Thursday by ordering the campaign and Secretary of State Frank LaRose to respond to FirstEnergy's "new exigencies" no later than Tuesday, Nov. 5.

  • I Am Laura Rosenberger, an Elected Member of the Ohio Republican Party State Central Committee, District 10, Clark, Greene and Madison Counties
    I am Laura Rosenberger, an elected member of the Ohio Republican Party State Central Committee, District 10, Clark, Greene and Madison Counties. My colleague, JoAnn Campbell from Medina County’s District 22, and I stand here outside what was supposed to be a picnic to bribe State Central Committee members into endorsing Mike DeWine at their September meeting. Even if that picnic had not been cancelled, JoAnn and I would still be standing outside here with you right now, along with two other members from the Committee who could not be here today, Mark Bainbridge District 16 and Denise Verdi District 25. You can be assured that the four of us stand with you, for you, and by you, against ORP primary endorsements and fiscal mismanagement and corruption. ORP Treasurer Dave Johnson, in a recent Ohio Star news article, called me and other Committee members who are concerned about the ORP’s fiscal mismanagement, Malcontents. I agree with Treasurer Johnson – I am a Malcontent. I am not satisfied or content with the status quo at the ORP and the longstanding corrupt relationship that exists between the ORP and corrupt Republican elected officials and candidates. So yes, Malcontent is the perfect word. Thank you, Treasurer Johnson. JoAnn and I do not have to go into detail about what has gone wrong at the ORP because so much has been revealed in the past few weeks that you already know. Everyone knows we have a chairman who has put into writing that he prefers to make important financial decisions on his own without the input or knowledge of the committee.

  • Independence Day: Resurgence
    INDEPENDENCE DAY: RESURGENCE (2016) ● Rated PG ­ 13 for sequences of sci ­ fi action and destruction, and for some language ● $165,000,000 budget ● 2 hrs ● Directed by Roland Emmerich ​ ​ ● Produced by Lynn Harris, Matti Leshem, Douglas C. Merrifield ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ● The film was produced by Columbia Pictures, Sony Pictures QUICK THOUGHTS ● Phil Svitek ● Marisa Serafini ● Demetri Panos ● Sara Stretton DEVELOPMENT ● The possibility of a sequel to Independence Day had long been discussed, and the film's ​ ​ producer and writer, Dean Devlin, once stated that the world's reaction to the September ​ ​ ​ 11 attacks influenced him to strongly consider making a sequel to the film ​ ● Soon after the success of the first film, 20th Century Fox paid Dean Devlin a large sum ​ ​ of money to write a script for a sequel. However, after completing the script, Devlin didn't turn in the script and instead gave the money back to the studio, as he felt the story didn't live up to the first film. It was only approximately 15 years later, that Devlin met up with Roland Emmerich to try again, having felt that they had "cracked" a story for a ​ ​ sequel ● Devlin began writing an outline for a script with Emmerich, but in May 2004, Emmerich said he and Devlin had attempted to "figure out a way how to continue the story", but that this ultimately did not work, and the pair abandoned the idea ● In October 2009, Emmerich said he once again had plans for a sequel, and had since considered the idea of making two sequels to form a trilogy ● On June 24, 2011, Devlin confirmed that he and Emmerich had found an idea for the sequels and had written a treatment for it ● In October 2011, however, discussions for Will Smith returning were halted, due to Fox's ​ ​ refusal to provide the $50 million salary demanded by Smith for the two sequels ● Emmerich, however, made assurances that the films would be shot back­to­back, ​ ​ regardless of Smith's involvement ○ Resurgence filmmakers were reported to be preparing versions of the film both ​ with and without Will Smith.

    Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2018 Remarks at the Ohio Republican Party State Dinner in Columbus, Ohio August 24, 2018 The President. Thank you very much, everybody. It's great to be back here. Remember, you cannot win unless you get the State of Ohio. Remember that? I heard that so many times. "You need the State of Ohio; therefore Trump can't win." I think we won by 9 points. What did we win by? Nine? We're winning. We're going to keep winning. I love this State. I worked here. During a summer, I worked here, and I loved it. Cincinnati. We like Cincinnati. Right? [Applause] We like Cincinnati. And this November, we're going to win really big. It's going to be one big Ohio family, as we've had. Special place. Helping us to achieve that victory will be our incredible Ohio GOP Chairwoman—a really incredible person and friend of mine—Jane Timken. Thank you, Jane. Great to be with you, Jane. Great job. This is your record—alltime. This is the all—that's not bad. You know, it is Ohio. All-time record. I'd say that's pretty good. We're also joined tonight by RNC Cochairman Bob Paduchik, who also ran my campaign in Ohio. And I want to tell you, he did an awfully good job. He did a great job. Thank you, Bob. Fantastic. I also want to express my gratitude to all of the county GOP chairs, grassroots activists, volunteers, and Republican women who work so hard to achieve victory for your party, your State, and for your country.
