Another Dem jumps ship
Ohio Dem backs Trump after history of feuds with her party
Democratic Ohio state Rep. Bernadine Kennedy Kent on Tuesday endorsed President Trump over former Vice President Joe Biden.
The endorsement comes after a history of feuding with Ohio Democrats, according to The Cincinnati Enquirer.
"Not only am I Black, I am a proud American and delighted to endorse President Trump for re-election," Kennedy Kent, who represents Ohio's 25th District, wrote in her endorsement posted to the president's 2020 campaign website. "Furthermore, I am honored to share with people my intent to vote for him and spread the word on the value of his leadership and his dedication to the American people."
She also said that despite her feelings toward the Democratic Party, her "values" align more with Trump's than with "Joe Biden’s divisive rhetoric, promotion of mass incarceration, and disrespectful, insensitive ideologies that substantiates his infamous comment '…if you’re still deciding between me and Trump, then you ain’t Black…' during an interview on a popular African American radio program earlier this year."

Kennedy Kent said in a separate press release that her husband, also "a lifelong Democrat," is also supporting Trump's reelection.
"Under President Trump's leadership, Black Americans have experienced record unemployment and the poverty rate among the Black community has fallen to its lowest level in U.S. history," she wrote in the release. She praised Trump's "willingness to listen to" Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., "and the concerns of invested citizens from diverse communities in economic distress.

Kennedy Kent served two years before being voted out of state's House Democratic Caucus in June 2018 after sending a letter on official Ohio Legislative Black Caucus letterhead without permission and has not returned to the Statehouse since May 2019, when she was blocked from entering a room, The Enquirer reported.
House Democrats also accused the state congresswoman of forging electronic signatures in June 2018, according to The Colombus Dispatch.
"She basically hasn't been involved with the party or her Statehouse job for a long time," Ohio Democratic Party Chairman David Pepper told the outlet. "This is the first I've heard of her in a while. Obviously, she checked out of her public position a long time ago."
Kennedy Kent, who is not seeking reelection in 2020, blamed House Democrats' "muddied mistreatment and unlawful action" as the reason why she left the party.

Industries for the Blind Inc. agrees to $1.9 million payment in fraud case
A West Allis nonprofit that operates nationwide has agreed to pay $1.9 million to the federal government after a whistleblower exposed it for repackaging Chinese products and claiming they had been made by visually impaired Americans.
Such claims helped Industries for the Blind and Visually Impaired earn the agency Ability One certification, a major advantage in winning contracts with government agencies like the U.S. Navy and Air Force.
Paul Inzeo, the company’s former marketing manager, filed a False Claims Act action against it in 2015, saying Industries for the Blind had lost its way and become a multimillion-dollar enterprise “designed to enrich its officers at the expense of the very people it was created to help.”
Inzeo’s attorney, Brian Mahany of Milwaukee, said, “Exploiting the blind to perpetrate a scheme to defraud the government is among the most outrageous conduct I have seen in a decade of whistleblower cases.”
Industries for the Blind, Inc., started in 1953 and changed its name in 2018 to Industries for the Blind and Visually Impaired. According to its website, it has manufacturing operations in West Allis, Menomonee Falls and Janesville, and 75% of its workforce is legally blind. Inzeo’s suit suggested the figure is far lower.
In a statement Tuesday, president and CEO C.J. Lange said IBVI worked with the Justice Department and found that none of the initial claims raised by Inzeo were valid, but that it discovered two employees who were “engaged in inappropriate activity” and were fired.
“These settlement negotiations have provided an opportunity for us to strengthen our relationship and trust with the United States government, while also ensuring that our staff is working towards our mission of blind employment.”
Lange was paid about $526,000 in 2017, according to the company’s tax report. He is the son of former president Charles Lange, who retired around 2013.
Inzeo, of Waukesha, said that while he was at Industries for the Blind, it imported about $40 million worth of goods from China, Taiwan and South Korea annually, which it resold as products made in the U.S.
