Campaign mailers urging Ohio voters to support a socialist U.S. Senate candidate over Democratic nominee Sherrod Brown are being underwritten by a newly incorporated PAC with ties to Donald Trump’s MAGA Inc., public filings show.

The mailers are sponsored by Enough Promises Ohio PAC and began arriving in voters’ mailboxes in recent days. They promote independent candidate Greg Levy over Brown with messages such as “Join the Revolution” and “Send a Worker to the Senate.” Levy describes himself as “Socialist running for the U.S. Senate to represent Ohio in 2026” on his X account.

Levy condemned the fliers for falsely impersonating his campaign and engaging in “dirty tricks” designed to mislead voters. He said he is considering legal action.

You're blaming the people who are trying to fix things for the faults of the people who are trying to break it and then you're confused that things get worse

Trump isn't controlling prices, he's failing badly.

Biden actually slowed down inflation, but you didn't notice because unless it goes negative prices don't drop, and you refused to understand the world so you refused to recognize the success of stopping the hemorrhage Trump caused in term 1. They also prosecuted price gouging, but then you guys gave Trump a chance to do more corruption.

And now Trump is stealing money from everywhere and everything to fund his own projects, funding illegal government ads for himself with tax money meant for everything from "border security" and to taking money from healthcare and education.

You might be thinking of the illegal Trump gas stations. Or the illegally imported meat. Using funds he's not authorized to use, and failing to make a dent.

Trump is supposed to be in prison, that's why. Biden didn't go on a crime spree.

And if you don't see the inflation Trump caused then you're blind.

Aside from the nonsense tariffs that only caused more inflation, bankrupting a lot of companies (I guess prices can't go up if the company disappears)

Prices are going up DESPITE USA SELLING OFF HUGE FRACTIONS OF RESERVES, because the releases are not enough to cover the whole impact (especially not foreign impact to transport costs on imported goods), and when the reserve runs out there's nothing left to cover up his failures and the price spikes in transport sectors will make everything more expensive again.

    Hey I get all that but why did Biden just sit on his ass and not manipulate the market like Trump does? Sure all the shit Trump is doing might be "illegal" but the supreme court ruled the president is above the law. So why did Biden play by the rules like a cuck? Because he is a corporatist above all and he will fuck you and me over before hurting the corporations. So forgive me if I am tired of democrat lies after years of supporting them and still ending up in this bullshit position. I'll support the far left of the democrat party but I'll take a pass on encouraging people to vote for all Democrats.

    Because Trump-appointed judges blocked everything they could, all the way up to SCOTUS. He would've had to had a bunch of judges arrested. Do you think anybody would've agreed to that order? Biden didn't have people behind the scenes who wanted to see him break the system. Trump did. That's why he had billionaires, tech companies, etc, who was backing him.

    I do think he should've done a lot more including forcing impeachment, and fighting SCOTUS when they lied in the Colorado case regarding Trump's disqualification, neither of which happened, but basically everything else was unavailable. The feds already nailed Trump on a crime and got him convicted, ready to be sentenced to jail. Then that led to nothing as he got elected before sentencing, and there was nothing to do at that point.

    The bigger problem is everybody else around who didn't even try at all, the media who lied about mental problems when it was clear it was Trump who lost it, judges afraid to use the enforcement measures they gave access to, the electoral college whose literal purpose is to reject votes for madmen like him and which failed twice, the people who voted for a liar against their own interests, etc.

    Biden's biggest problem was thinking working inside the system was enough.
