Do you just make stuff up as you go? Home rule hasn’t been dismantled at all.

Alert: Longtime Republican consultant Rick Wilson (but now an independent) says the Republicans are pulling campaign funding out of Ohio, giving up on the state. • The Ohio Comment: Wilson explicitly stated, "I'm told they're going to leave Ohio." • The Reason: He noted that national leadership is "not happy about Ohio" and viewing the state as an expensive media market and a "heavy lift," they are playing a "game of triage" to reallocate those campaign dollars to cheaper, more winnable races like Alaska.

Congressional Republicans Support & Defend This👇
An ABC News analysis found defense companies backed by President Trump's sons have now raked in more than $6 billion dollars in active or promised government contracts since those investments were made, according to government data. Read more: abcnews.link/I6Efk6P

Ratepayer protection? This guy RECRUITED Sam Randazzo to be Ohio’s top utility regulator, then we watched as Ohio became home to what the FBI said was America’s biggest public corruption scandal. After being indicted, Randazzo became the scandal’s 2nd suicide.
Democrats blocked my Ratepayer Protection Act and proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that they don't care about affordability. This was their chance to help lower electricity prices for American families—and they said no.

I thought Trump’s tariffs were specifically designed to dramatically reduce this number to zero.

The trade deficit in August was $36 billion larger than the Biden average. Trump's tariffs have failed.

THIS is exactly why supermajorities are BAD for government. Ohio Republicans have controlled state government for decades, aided by maps the Ohio Supreme Court repeatedly found UNCONSTITUTIONAL. (Are y’all sensing a theme here??) And now they’re campaigning against the record of their OWN Republican administration. Gov. DeWine has already debunked this rhetoric. When Dr. Acton resigned as Health Director, he praised her service, kept her on as his Chief Health Adviser, AND made clear that the COVID decisions were HIS decisions as Governor. YOU controlled the government. YOU drew the maps. YOU made the decisions. YOU own the record. 🤷🏻‍♀️
During COVID you quit on Ohio. You had your chance and walked out on us.

Households in the contiguous United States will pay thousands of dollars more for energy through 2040 because of federal policy changes since President Trump returned to office, according to modeling from a nonpartisan think tank. abcnews.link/cqBoqeJ

What we're seeing in Ohio vs the rest of the country... GOP backers alone have paid more to reserve ads touting Sen Jon Husted/bashing Sherrod Brown than the combined Dem-Republican totals in every other competitive state
From the start of October through Election Day, Republicans are poised to outspend Democrats on advertising in eight of the ten most competitive Senate races, according to future reservations. In Texas, the GOP have a nearly 8-to-1 advantage in remaining bookings, while Georgia and North Carolina are the only contests with clear Democratic spending advantages: cnn.com/2026/10/05/politics/…

Why does the Republican Party continue to lie to the voters? Over 1000 Medical Professionals have endorsed Dr Acton. How can anyone believe what is posted by the Republican Party.

One senator writes ICE's budget. The two companies that profit from every ICE raid send her campaign checks. She cashes them. Nearly three decades of "concern," and the one thing she's never once been troubled by is the money. dworkinsubstack.com/p/trump-… #LetsGetVoteReady

Mike Carey’s poll numbers that bad huh? Don Leonard wants to stop spending our tax dollars on forever wars and invest it on healthcare and childcare here in Ohio. Mike Carey’s platform is whatever Trump tells him to do.
