New blog post: "Celebrating the Reimagined #Akron #Art #Museum 1899 Building" sosassociates.com/blog/2026-10... I want to thank the @akronartmuseum.bsky.social for the Community Opening Celebration in @downtownakron.bsky.social. The new galleries in the renovated historic building are fantastic!

Wow! 🤯 I just went on an excellent tour of The Surrealist Impulse exhibition with #Akron #Art #Museum @akronartmuseum.bsky.social museum curator Wendy Earle akronartmuseum.org/contact/staff/ akronartmuseum.org/current-exhi... I highly recommend you attend a tour with her or a museum docent.

The Trump Presidential Library will have an entire wing devoted to Trump’s sworn denials.

The President of the United States is a child rapist.

The shadow of Trump's arch would cover: —Burial sites in Arlington National Cemetery —The graves of Supreme Court Justices Thurgood Marshall, William H. Rehnquist and Ruth Bader Ginsburg —Kennedy's eternal flame —Kennedy's memorial —The Military Women's Memorial

Hey George! I've got JD Vance on the phone and he says he wants to submit some video for our next DNC ad. Says it only needs light editing.

She sounds on-brand for the GOP

There’s so much to explore beyond the Museum galleries! Wander the grounds to discover Peter Rockwell’s sculptures, scenic walking trails to the Housatonic River, and Norman Rockwell’s Studio—each offering a new way to experience art and nature. Plan your visit today!

1. Not sure when a new, on-the-record rape allegation against a sitting president isn’t considered news — especially considering Trump was found liable by a jury in a similar case — but it was ignored by most mainstream media outlets

I just saw this good advice: “mail is unreliable…recommend anyone who has a Vote-by-Mail ballot who has not mailed it yet to get a ride or drive yourself to the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections & drop it in the drop box. This must be done by 7:30 pm on Election Day! #VOTE” boe.cuyahogacounty.gov

Our most recent Pop-Up Block Party for Democracy was in Mentor on Friday. Having worked with our District 14 Ohio partners on the We The People of Ohio Tour, we were glad to be able to finally join them for one of their Friday Protests. They’ve been holding these weekly for over 18 months!!

If you are on the fence about voting, consider this: Bigots, Racists and the Kool Aid drinkers will vote. Are these the people you want deciding our fate? No it’s not! #VoteEarly #Blues #VoteBlue

Yeah, #Ohio!! 🎉 “In #Cleveland, Obama rallied voters behind Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate Sherrod Brown @sherrodbrownoh.bsky.social and gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton @amyactonoh.bsky.social” Annoy the felon in the White House by comparing his dwindling crowds to Obama’s packed venues!

New in PN: Ramaswamy discovers that voters have their limits "This is the nature of today’s right-wing bubble, whose residents are not only acculturated to a particular political style — cruel, often hateful — but become convinced it’s the only effective way to do politics, & any other way is weak"

Thank you, @thetnholler.bsky.social, for sharing this. “Ahead of the midterms, John Oliver devotes an entire episode to discussing the rising prominence of extremist beliefs within the Republican Party – from white nationalism to antisemitism…” youtu.be/SnsBI4YxwIs

Commentary: An Ohio Republican strategist told the New York Times that the campaign of Ohio Republican US Sen Jon Husted is trying to portray Sherrod Brown as the incumbent in the race amid backlash against the party in power in Washington. Will it work? ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/10/26/o...

Really excited to learn from Trump and his cult next week how we cheated again.
