Ohio GOP Congress Members Won't Even Thank Ohio State Troopers

The armed man who attacked the FBI office in Cincinnati led police to a dangerous standoff. Where was "Back the Blue" in the Ohio Congressional delegation?
By Frances Langum — August 12, 2022

Maybe they were all in shock from Merrick Garland's massive bluff calling on Dear Leader, but Republican Congress critters sure were quiet yesterday.

The attack on the Cincinnati FBI was horrific, and then the gunman led Ohio State troopers and other local law enforcement (not enemies of Trump, betcha) to a dangerous standoff that ended with the gunman's demise.

You know who did acknowledge the Ohio law enforcement and the risks they took to keep Ohioans safe?

Democratic Senator Sherrod Brown:

And future Democratic Senator (knock wood) Tim Ryan:

Republicans are behaving like they no longer back the Blue. Huh.
