I believe Jane Fonda was also detained and accused of being a drug smugger in Ohio when the Nixon administration and FBI wanted to intimidate her.

This shit with Stormy is nothing new for the United States. It's ridiculously tame in comparison really. J Edgar Hoover was instrumental in running extensive criminal harrasment campaigns of countless people, from Black activists, anti-war organizations, and journalists, for decades. And that doesn't even include the McCarthyist witch hunts. He spent a long time engaging in psychological warfare to try and convince MLK to kill him self for God's sake. And Nixon used him as his point man to go after people on his enemies list.

Detective 1: What do you want to do today?
Detective 2: Go to the strip club?
1: Not on tax payers dime!
2: Investigate the strip clubs?
1: We have a duty to protect citizens from strippers. Lets go.


Finally a state that is protecting vulnerable strip club customers from vicious sexual harassment by strip club strippers.

Had a conversation with my dad the other day where he insisted that Democrats "don't want to fix the immigration issue" .... sigggghhhhh
If you're coming at it from the perspective that fixing immigration means building a wall, deporting all undocumented people and making sharp cuts to legal immigration on top of all that, then that's true!

I told him that if the DREAM Act was brought to the floor it would easily pass but Ryan and the most hardline rightwing won't let it be voted on, and also that Dems offered Trump wall funding for a DACA fix, but he said that wasn't a "real fix."

Ohio
And some people were skeptical when I said Columbus isn't the liberal bastion some people pretend it is.

Yes there are Republicans in every county as there are Democrats in every county.

to be clear i'm like 95% sure i'm the "some people" being referenced here, except it was less skepticism and more "the parts that aren't in the giant east-side suburban hellscape are turning into more of a liberal & left-wing bastion"

(i've actually been past the club where this happened a few times and it's definitely part of the giant east-side suburban hellscape - everything within half a mile is a strip mall or corporate offices)

Easton?

Edit: As I posted it dawned on me that of course it would be toward Easton, as Easton has the word East in it...

Could have been you but you weren't the only one.

Sometimes you have to help Trump with his agenda in order to take a stand with words no one cares about.

It's not at Easton. It's closer to Westerville but not there. It's in a kind of industrial area. Used to live at Easton.

Is it by the vineyard mega church? The club on Cleveland ave? If it's still there, used to drive by it all the time.

Edit: i see it was answered,it is indeed that club.

the club in question is pretty much immediately south of Westerville on Cleveland (like a block away from 270), I passed it a few times when I had to meet with people at HDR a couple blocks away

Oh, that makes total sense then. My uncle lived in Canal Winchester for years so we'd go down from Akron a few times a year and ended up in Westerville a lot. It's....it's a place alright.
