snip--"House Speaker Larry Householder, long respected in Columbus as a patient and cunning political tactician, has been putting his skills to work in countering Gov. Mike DeWine’s response to the coronavirus crisis."

snip--" But it was just the latest in a long string of moves Householder, a conservative Perry County Republican with an independent streak, has made pressuring the governor’s office to pull back its COVID-19 response."


snip--" - In an April 17 radio interview, Householder indicated he would block any tax increases requested by the DeWine administration to balance the state budget. He expressed anger that the governor vetoed House-backed changes to the state Medicaid program. “I told them, don’t drag your butt back in here a year from now and ask for a tax increase,” he said. He also recalled forcing former Gov. Bob Taft to approve temporary budgets during a previous stint as House speaker in the early 2000s. “He hated me doing that,” Householder said."



Householder has blocked DeWine and previous Govs b/c he tightly controls his members. That control is now gone.

Things at the state house are going to be different

Will not be arguing against that bill! He is already in the poky, along with his stinking butt buddies.

DeWine is the Governor.

Kasich got lots of money from coal companies in his earlier campaigns, but was very publicly against the nuclear bailout.

Kasich is a smart pol, what did he know?

Public education. I hate when people call Kasich a moderate!

I always heard that Kasich and Householder were bitter enemies. It will be interesting to see how this shakes out..

Every minute.

I, too, will have to watch the presser today.

Just, wow.

And they are not through yet. Investigation on going!

This is huge. Biggest corruption case ever in Ohio!

I can't stand Householder!

I was right!
