We went to the opera last night in Copenhagen. Copenhagen has a modern opera house - nice because the older houses were built for smaller people so have little bitty seats and narrow aisles. if you’re me you’re thinking “well, THIS is a fire trap, and me in heels!”
My husband takes me to the opera wherever we are. At first I went along to be a good sport but I ended up really enjoying the performances. It’s fun to get dressed up and just listen to beautiful music with people who take that sort of thing seriously. My favorite opera space so far is the Met in NYC - It has that great energy you get when you’re around people who so want you to LOVE what they love.
Fun rumor about Vivek Ramaswamy:
A young nationalist crashed out on Vivek Ramaswamy last night at Ohio State’s Turning Point USA stop.
The young man referenced swirling rumors about photographic evidence of Vivek Ramaswamy cheating on his wife in March at a Cincinnati hotel with the daughter of an influential Southwestern Ohio Republican.
Sadly, the the young Nazi shows his hand at the end of the clip by demanding Ramaswamy “acknowledge” Casey Putsch, who is the far, far Right GOP candidate running against Ramaswamy in the GOP primary:
Three weeks before the May 5 Republican primary for governor, the race’s most vocal underdog is escalating his attacks on frontrunner Vivek Ramaswamy — this time taking aim at the National Rifle Association for backing him.
Casey Putsch, a Perrysburg automotive entrepreneur and Tiffin native challenging Ramaswamy in the GOP primary, posted a roughly 44-minute video to YouTube in which he called the NRA to cancel his membership on camera, displayed personal firearms from his collection, and played clips from Ramaswamy’s 2023 speech at the NRA-ILA Leadership Forum in Indianapolis.
“When the NRA sells out the entirety of Ohio and our American values,” Putsch said early in the video, they “can go [expletive] themselves.”
Perrysburg is in NW Ohio just outside Toledo. It’s mostly know as a white flight suburb of Toledo, although it is in Wood County, which is famously a swing county in Ohio.
Anyway, because this guy was obviously a plant by the Putsch campaign I don’t think we can consider his allegations credible, but it does point to how the far, far Right GOP base are not at all happy with Ramaswamy and the far Right
It’ss the fascists versus the Nazis in Ohio now, and that’s good for our friend Amy Acton.
