Remember when the hyenas realised all the promises Scar made to them were lies, and he’d destroyed every semblance of normalcy and stability, so they turned around and ate him? Just pointing that out for absolutely no reason at all.

"Jeep people built Ohio. Jet people like Vivek Ramaswamy fly right over it" hits right at the haves vs. have-nots populism that's been particularly strong with rural voters this year. Acton's latest ad:
#OHPol: "Amy Acton is from Youngstown. Spent her entire career helping people. Vivek? He peddled a drug for Alzheimer's patients that didn't work. Now he's a billionaire ... Jeep people built Ohio. Jet people like Vivek Ramaswamy fly right over it." Ohioans for Lower Costs is up with this new #OHGov ad.

i'm late to this but chiming in to say the HMP IE has polled > 50 times in the last 7-10 days across the country and has seen nothing to suggest this is true.
Scoop: Both parties just got back new internal polling that shows a tightening map in the core House battlegrounds - as Republicans are still struggling to shore up a raft of redder seats. Senior Dems are trying to set expectations about how big of a majority they might win. Rs still face serious problems in North Carolina, South Texas and more.

needed video to believe he actually said this 9 days before an election.
TRUMP on HIGH GAS PRICES: We’re making money like we’ve never made before. They’ll say: President Trump is bragging about all the money they're making while people are suffering at the pump. I don’t give a damn. We’re making a freaking fortune.

NEWS: Former Sen. Rob Portman, an Ohio Republican, tells me Vivek should take down the ad “The increasing incivility in the political arena should concern us all. This ad is an unfortunate example of that broader trend. It crosses the line. I hope the ad will be taken down and the final days of the campaign will focus on policy differences.”

NEW: How Michigan congressman Jack Bergman came to live in a campaign donor's Washington, D.C. home Earlier this year, the donor sold home on a land contract to Bergman’s daughter in a sell-financed deal with no principal due until 2033. Bergman has continued to claim taxpayer reimbursement since his daughter bought the Capitol Hill rowhouse for the same price the donor paid for it four years ago. detroitnews.com/story/news/p… via @nannburke & @detroitnews

A second GOP governor of Ohio (following DeWine) condemns the Ramaswamy campaign for the Acton attack ad featuring her estranged mother >
I was asked today on MSNOW about the recent ad in the Ohio governor’s race. It’s completely inappropriate and has no place in American politics. It should be taken off the air, and those responsible should apologize. Here’s what I had to say.

Gov. Mike DeWine talks about Vivek Ramaswamy’s ad featuring Amy Acton’s mother saying she is lying about her past - “the ad is deeply, deeply troubling” and that when you know the full story “it makes it more wrong”

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: @JohnWall is a natural in that booth. Whenever he’s talking hoops? I listen. Looking forward to hearing him on the call for more Wiz games this season!

I believe women — not the government — deserve to be able to make our own health care decisions. That’s why I’m so grateful for Hadley Duvall’s support. Three years after she bravely first shared her story, she’s still speaking up for women and girls who need a voice.

It’s disgusting that we’ve reached this point in our politics, and JD Vance should be ashamed of himself. Vivek Ramaswamy and JD Vance have reached a low I did not think was possible by attacking a survivor of childhood sexual assault. @amyactonoh escaped poverty and neglect and became a doctor and extraordinary public servant. She is going to be an outstanding governor.
JD Vance defends Vivek Ramaswamy’s ad featuring Amy Acton’s abusive mother, who stayed with her husband who was indicted for raping Acton starting at 9 years old: "Vivek Ramaswamy had the audacity to run a TV commercial which calls it out like it is and calls Amy Acton a liar"

He’s been a monster the entire campaign. He mocked her for being raped by her birth mother’s husband. Now he’s calling her a liar in an ad he’s spending millions on. Truly the most despicable person to ever run for office in Ohio.
