Rooster in Review: Conman joins the Epstein coverup
Notorious conman Vivek Ramaswamy has reversed his earlier position of demanding a full and transparent release of the Epstein Files. Now why would he do such a thing?
As longtime readers know, I have been skeptical of Dr. Amy Acton’s chances to be Ohio’s next governor.
And while I won’t be issuing any guarantees in the near future, I have been noticing an increase in her campaign’s willingness to hit these perverts where it hurts—a trait sorely missing from Ohio Democratic politics for the past decade.
Earlier today, I wrote about Ohio Republicans from the U.S. House of Representatives to the Ohio House of Representatives, all being culpable in the Jeffrey Epstein cover-up, whether that’s blocking a full and transparent release of the files on the federal level, or taking money from known Epstein associate Les Wexner on the state level.
We can go ahead and add the notorious conman Vivek Ramaswamy to that list.
In Ramaswamy’s defense, when he made that promise, he probably would have seen running for governor of Ohio as a minor league unworthy of his vast talents. But here we are.
Conman knows that, without Donald Trump’s golden endorsement, he would be back on Fox News hawking junk to drug-addled, hate-filled Boomers much quicker than he would like to admit.
But I love this for Ramaswamy’s team of hangers-on who get to pretend they’re Machiavellian geniuses because Trump endorsed their guy to get him out of Washington, D.C.
It was shameful enough work in its own right, but now they’ll also have to live with the fact that they answered anything other than “Yes” to a simple question like, “Should the public know the enormity of Epstein’s crime?”
Still, unless the economy craters, I’m not going to be calling for a Democratic takeover in 2026.
Nevertheless, it’s refreshing to see Acton throw some punches on top of numerous in-the-field reports to The Rooster about her finding a renewed juice on the stump.

This week in Ohio Man…
This week was another depressing outing for “Ohio Man” in the headlines, as evidenced by the “feel-good” story being about Canadian police identifying the remains of a missing Berea Man that were initially found in 1980.
From orillamatters.com:
Provincial police say "investigative genetic genealogy" has been used to positively identify human remains — found in Algonquin Park in 1980 — as belonging to a Cleveland man.
The deceased has been identified as Eric (Ricky) Singer, who was last seen at his parents' home in Berea, Ohio, on Oct. 4, 1973, according to Ontario Provincial Police.
"Up until this time, I never felt sad because it has been such a long time and you get numb to it," his younger sister, Merry Singer, said in an OPP release. "This cuts through. I'm honoured, I'm humbled, I'm grateful. He was eventually found.
"He was identified and we were able to put him to rest and put ourselves to rest," she added.
I would assume that what the police mean by “investigative genetic genealogy” would be that they ran Ricky’s DNA through family genealogy databases and discovered a match.
Calling it “investigative genealogy” rather than subpoenaing private companies for DNA databases sounds a lot more palatable to most people.
Still! I am glad that Ricky’s family got the closure they deserved, rather than having to live with the unknown for the rest of their lives. It also makes you wonder what kind of criminal cases we’ll be able to solve 40 years from now.
This week on The Rooster…
It was a shortened week of business at Rooster Worldwide LLC in observance of Labor Day on Monday. Only three dispatches this week:
We’ll do it again next week, with the political season heating up.
Until then… stay frosty, my friends!
