Today's riddle: What has a tail, but no body? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Amy Acton incident spotlights threats public officials, candidates face (axios.com) — Bexley enters the statewide conversation about political threats as the article recalls armed, antisemitic protests outside Amy Acton's Bexley home while examining a recent confrontation at the Canfield Fair. Using Ohio examples and national data, it shows how harassment and intimidation are reshaping how public officials interact with residents and weigh personal safety.
• Groundbreaking advances against acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (osu.edu) — A Bexley-based leukemia specialist at Ohio State's James Cancer Hospital is helping lead major breakthroughs in treating acute myeloid leukemia, including clinical trials that produced several FDA-approved drugs. Her work and patient success stories highlight how Central Ohio research is shaping cutting-edge, targeted therapies and new trials for some of the most difficult blood cancers.
• Amy Acton's COVID response at center of race for Ohio governor (centredaily.com) — Protesters once gathered outside Dr. Amy Acton's Bexley home over Ohio's COVID restrictions, and that pandemic response is now a central issue in her 2026 run for governor. The article details how Acton, Gov. Mike DeWine, and rival Vivek Ramaswamy are framing those early decisions, weighing school closures, health impacts, and economic fallout as voters revisit those choices.
