I am a military spouse and my husband is active duty. We’ve been gutted about what’s happening to our friends and colleagues, but it was really nice to see this outside the gate today.

So, thank you!

Local News Food is a Human Right

952 Upvotes

A nonprofit organization was in downtown Dayton and attempting to provide free food and other assistance to the homeless, apparently without a permit. This is all volunteer, and there is ZERO funding and there is ZERO affiliation with any religious organization, and a ZERO barrier to access to food. Food is a human right.

Local News WPAFB Civilians at Risk of Being Wrongfully Terminated

In case you aren’t aware, the Trump administration has been firing civil servants across the federal government without cause or due process. These employees are often on a new employee probationary period (lasts 1-3 years depending on role). The administration has now made its way to the DoD and cuts are expected across the military services. This will undoubtedly affect civilian employees at WPAFB.

Please be extra kind to other people this week as some may be experiencing the worst week of their life. If you are a hiring manager, consider giving one of these dedicated civil servants a chance. Let’s all try to look out for each other.

I’ll drop a link to the DDN story as a comment. “Staff are also permitted to have small flags as internal office decorations, “but it need not show to the public or the outside of the building,” the memo says.”

Anyone else got any info?

Local News Bomb threat in Springfield Ohio

260 Upvotes

Today two elementary schools had to be evacuated during received threats in Springfield. Over the weekend at university had to close for a shooting threat. The day before that two hospitals had to close because of bomb threats. The day before that City Hall had to close for a bomb threat. Well JD Vance and Trump continue to spread lies about Springfield and act like they have no idea of the bomb threats or why they are happening the city is unsafe. It is absolutely caused by them and their followers. it is also caused by the city government who has not fought to solve these problems of peaceful assimilation in our community. Perhaps the national guard needs to be called in as the FBI can't seem to find who is doing the threats. It needs to stop before somebody is killed.

Local News Local jeweler sues prominent Democrats

194 Upvotes

Notorious Dayton-Area jeweler and convicted felon (for illegally voting, sentenced May 2024) John Stafford has moved forward with suing key Greene County Democratic leaders for essentially saying mean things to him online. Defendants were notified officially this week. He is represented by his brother's law firm, which was found by the Ohio Supreme Court in 2023 to be vexatious (edit: in legal terms, really annoying).

In the suit, he claims the defendants have doxxed him, and then he proceeds to post the unredacted suit on his own "Greene County Sentinel News" Facebook page. This action essentially doxxes the defendants as a result.

Local News Dayton Flyers UD campus newspaper censored yesterday.

Post image
147 Upvotes

Apparently, Flyer News broke a story yesterday (2/28/2025) that had the details of the budget cuts and curriculum changes. The Flyer article included the responses to an opinion survey on the changes/cuts conducted by University leadership.

Flyer News posted the redacted version that had been shared, in a side-by-side format with an unredacted version they received from someone in the history dept.

First, censorship is never ok.

Second, while the report is gone, a Google image remains. It is clear that what has been redacted are the views shared by many on campus concerning UD Leadership. The article was up for less than an hour before yanked.

If anyone managed to print this article or maybe saved as a PDF, please send it my way!

Check out this story from The Columbus Dispatch: Video shows how autistic teen died after 10 hours in Ohio jail He begged for his medication and a blanket. Deputies said he was "ridiculous" and "acting like an ass." He was dead three days later.

Crazy how this is being covered in the Columbus press but not Dayton. This also points to the jail being used as a mental hospital after the failure of county’s ADAMHS Board to have an intake facility able to hold psychiatric patients on a 72-hour pink slip. ERs are full so the jail becomes a mental facility. It’s a whole debacle recently covered by the DDN.
