Dems launch 11th-hour meddling operation
in Ohio GOP Senate primary

Original Article

Democrats are meddling in Ohio’s Senate GOP primary at the 11th hour to boost Bernie Moreno, the candidate former President Donald Trump endorsed to face vulnerable Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown.[Snip]The group is funded by Senate Majority PAC, the top Democratic outside group focused on Senate races. The apparent goal of the ad is to boost Moreno with GOP voters, and their interference in the race is a sign that they believe he would be the weakest candidate in the general election. Ohio, one of three Democratic-held seats up for election in states Trump won in 2020, is one of the most critical races to the Senate majority.

Comments:

Sherrod Brown (age 72), the Democrat senior United States Senator (elected in 2007) from Ohio, according to 2023 news sources, intended to focus his 2024 reelection on abortion access by exploiting the passage of Issue One that enshrines abortion rights in Ohio’s Constitution; also, he is a pro-LGBT rights advocate. Sherrod Brown has an interesting background that includes personal Ohio property taxes as well as having had to correct “several years of Senate financial disclosure forms that had previously omitted his wife’s pension money.” according to reference material at Wikipedia.

Whichever Republican the Democrats promote will be better suited to represent Ohio in the senate than Sherrod Brown.

In 2022, J.D. Vance was considered the weakest candidate in the Republican primary. But an endorsement from Donald Trump can work wonders. He won the primary and the election. The same thing will happen this time. Sherrod Brown won't win another term.

Of course the Democrats launch another attack on the voting process. They learned a lot during the pandemic when they were able to alter election processes without going through the State Legislatures, so why would they stop now? The Dem playbook will be to hammer away at the MAGA republicans and how they will be linked with Trump whom they declare is dangerous. The GOP will need to find a way to counter these relentless ads on TV and Radio.

It is an ANTI Moreno advert, Claiming he is "Too Extreme for Ohio, and a Mega MAGA" how is THAT construed as a Pro Moreno "Supporting" ploy? It is Sharrod Brown who is "Too Extreme for Ohio", extreme LEFT... every other state wide seat is Repub, Sharrod votes the direct OPPOSITE in the Senate to everything Ohioans at home support, and opposite the votes of Ohio Reps in the House. He is supposed to be the Will of the State's voice in the Senate, he votes instead in line with NYC, Massachusetts...and California. There are lots of anti Moreno ads coming fro Freedom Works, claiming he is too far LEFT. I'm voting for him over LaRose, with plans to support LaRose over DeWine for Governor....bring the whole State into the Right Camp. Hopefully Merrin will finally Bounce Kaptur out as well, she only held on because her district is one of the most gerrymandered in the Nation "The snake by the Lake"

I haven't followed this race that closely. But if Mr Moreno has President Trump's endorsement and runs a smart campaign ... knowing you can be a strong conservative AND appeal to the moderate and disaffected Democrat voters, he should do well. Yeah, our Democrat friends like to run their own version of "Operation Chaos" (hat tip, RIP, to El Rushbo, who coined the term in 2008 to "assist" Hillary Clinton in her race against King Obama the First), but we should be smart enough to deal with it. May the best solid America-first Republican win the primary and win it decisively as a springboard to a win in November!

With the exception of JD Vance, all of Trump’s senatorial endorsements last time around lost. I hope he is endorsing smarter this time around.

Report: Three Ways Letitia James Could
Collect $454M if Donald Trump Can’t
Post Bond

Posted by Harlowe 3/22/2024 6:00:35 PM Post Reply
New York Attorney General Letitia James reportedly has three ways to collect $454 million if former President Donald Trump does not post a bond to cover a civil fraud judgment by Monday. If Trump’s Monday appeal fails to reduce or hold off James from collecting the bond amount, she would have the power to go after the former president’s cash and real estate holdings. [Snip] 1. Placing liens against properties, 2. Collecting rents from properties. 3. Collecting funds from Trump’s New York state bank accounts. [Snip] James could then use the judgment to target Trump’s assets in other states through a process called “domesticating.”

President Trump just notched a legal win that may shed some light on the bizarre decision made by the judge in the Big Fani dismissal case. In a moment that felt suggestive in a “wink and a nod” kind of way, Judge McAfee not only granted Trump a substantial triumph but also opened the door for rectifying his own unjust ruling by approving Trump’s appeal request in Georgia. It appears as if McAfee wanted to wash his hands clean and defer to a higher court, almost as if he was encouraging Trump’s team to seek an appeal and give Big Fani the bum rush right out the door.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk is defending former President Donald Trump on Sunday after multiple establishment media outlets ran headlines stating that the former president warned the U.S. would see a "bloodbath" if he is not reelected.

"Your post is extremely misleading." When Trump used the word "bloodbath," he was discussing China's reported plans to build cars in Mexico and sell them cheaply in the United States.

The number of civilian casualties in Gaza has been at the center of international attention since the start of the war. The main source for the data has been the Hamas-controlled Gaza Health Ministry, [Snip] If Hamas’ numbers are faked or fraudulent in some way, there may be evidence in the numbers themselves that can demonstrate it. While there is not much data available, there is a little, and it is enough: [Snip] While the evidence is not dispositive, it is highly suggestive that a process unconnected or loosely connected to reality was used to report the numbers.

Former President Donald Trump posted a $91.6 million bond Friday after losing writer E. Jean Carroll’s defamation case against him, also appealing the eight-figure judgment, as the ex-president faced a Monday deadline to pay the judgment against him—though he still has hundreds of millions more to pay in a separate civil fraud case. [Snip] Trump faced a Monday deadline to put up the money he owes in the case, as he had 30 days after the judgment on Feb. 8 to either pay cash or post an appeals bond before Carroll could ask the court to enforce the judgment and seize Trump’s assets.

Instead, the plan involves U.S. personnel on military vessels offshore who will not be required to go ashore to install the port.

Former President Trump demanded he receive a new trial after a jury ordered him to pay $83.3 million in advice columnist E. Jean Carroll’s defamation lawsuit. [Snip] “Just before President Trump took the stand at trial, the Court engaged in a colloquy with defense counsel designed to restrict the scope of President Trump’s testimony,” [Snip] That exchange, they argue, narrowed the scope of Trump’s testimony to the point of prejudice by preventing him from addressing his mental state in relation to Carroll. On the witness stand, Trump only answered two questions--one of which was objected to, they wrote.

An academic group, Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC), obtained some alarming data. In over 200,000 cases, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) failed to file the proper paperwork with immigration courts in Houston, Texas and Miami, Florida. The illegal aliens were issued a Notice to Appear (NTA) at the border, which creates a court date. However, DHS never filed the paperwork with the court. The asylum process can't move forward without filing the proper paperwork with the court. The court date rolls around and the asylum-seeker shows up. The judge doesn't have the paperwork so the case is dismissed.
