DeWine Drops Death Penalty Support
Description
Ohio Governor Mike DeWine just dropped a bombshell: he’s officially ending his support for the death penalty — a move that’s both surprising and deeply consequential, especially since he helped reintroduce it in 1981. His pivot isn’t moral, but practical — he’s seen decades of dysfunction, rare executions, and zero deterrence. Now, with 113 inmates on death row and the legislature unlikely to repeal capital punishment, DeWine’s decision on their fates could be the most powerful move yet. Meanwhile, a man in Ohio faces federal charges for plotting to use drones to assassinate officials at a White House UFC event — arrested after his parents tipped off authorities. And on his desk? A bill mandating schools teach the “Success Sequence” — education, work, marriage — sparking debate over whether it’s a roadmap or just a myth.
