Here are the questions we’re answering today:
What are the rules of the late night curfew that Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine announced to battle the coronavirus Tuesday? DeWine announced Tuesday that Ohio retail businesses will be closed from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. daily for three weeks. The curfew is in lieu of a threatened gym and restaurant shutdown.
Why did a federal judge throw out damning evidence against two men charged with rioting in Cleveland on May 30, when millions of dollars of damage was done downtown? Because Cleveland police lacked probable cause to arrest Devon Poland and Brandon Althof Long after they were spotted near an SUV parked the wrong way on East 8th Street.
Did Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine really say, with a straight face, that he has no reason to believe his Public Utilities chief is under federal investigation? He certainly did. DeWine said Tuesday that although Public Utilities Commission of Ohio Chairman Sam Randazzo’s home was searched by the FBI the day before, he is “a good person. If there’s evidence to the contrary, then we’ll act accordingly. But I’m not going to act without facts.”
Why is Rob Portman talking about volunteering for trials of a coronavirus vaccine? Portman announced on Tuesday that he has enrolled in a Cincinnati-based clinical trial for a COVID-19 vaccine candidate, in hopes announcing his participation will encourage others to “feel confident in participating in vaccine clinical trials” across the United States.
Sherrod Brown and his fellow senators mixed it up in pretty brutal fashion this week about the wearing of coronavirus masks. What was the dustup about? Brown asked Alaska Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan to wear a mask to protect the staffers who were sitting in his vicinity, while acknowledging “I can’t tell you what to do.”
What unusual action did the Cleveland Cavaliers announce yesterday that could be giving everything about the team a new look? The Cavs have engaged New York-based artist and Cleveland native Daniel Arsham as the team’s first creative director, responsible for anything and everything having to do with the Cavaliers' visual identity.
What does stalwart Republican Secretary of State Frank LaRose have to say about all of the attacks his fellow party members are making on the integrity of the election system? LaRose defended the integrity of the U.S. election, calling recent claims from President Donald Trump and other Republicans disputing the results an example of a harmful trend of politicization of elections administration.
