Woody or Wexner?
It's a simple question made complicated by Ohio State Board of Trustees chairman John Zeiger's client, Leslie Wexner, lying for six years about when he ended his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein.

Four days before Epstein went to prison, and six months after Wexner claimed to have cut ties with his former financier, Wexner emailed Epstein to stay he felt sorry.
Why did Wexner think Epstein was going to jail for not being careful, rather than gross sexual misconduct?

Newsom: "Think about the state of mind of the VP. How do you square the circle when you go to a prayer breakfast? Old testament, new testament. What's the fundamental thing that connects John to Matthew to Proverbs? It's this notion of hunger, feeding the poor. It's central to advancing God's will."

Ohio Auditor Keith Faber once referred local officials for prosecution for dereliction of duty for violating Ohio sunshine law.
As a member of the redistricting commission, is he skirting that same law now?

Ohio’s Sunshine Law applies to the Ohio Redistricting Commission.
It is a “public body” created by the state Constitution to perform a governmental function — drawing legislative and congressional district maps
Deliberations and negotiations over Congressional maps must take place in public
