For those who follow the daily polls and political trends, the floor may have just fallen out from under the Republican campaign for Ohio Governor.
And any Republican who fails to distance themselves from this ad risks taking on water as well.
I have to give Jon Husted credit. He said he would not have run the ad. That was the right response. While he stopped short of outright condemning it, he made his position clear.
Vivek Ramaswamy needs to pivot, and quickly. Stop defending the ad and start talking about his policies, his vision for Ohio, and why he believes he is the better candidate.
If he chooses to double down, I don't see anything good coming from it.
Here's what too many people in politics seem to forget:
Voters don't always elect the most qualified candidate. They often elect the candidate they like, trust, relate to, or even sympathize with.
You can have the strongest résumé, the best policies, and the most impressive background, but none of that guarantees victory if voters don't like what they see or hear.
And when voters believe someone has been treated unfairly, sympathy can become a powerful political force.
Elections aren't won simply by convincing voters that your opponent is worse. They're won by convincing voters that you're better.
That is a lesson every candidate, Republican or Democrat, would be wise to remember.

J.D. Vance is a garbage human being and I think much, much less of the (thankfully, fewer) people I still see on here defending him. thebulwark.com/p/jd-vance-is…

Very sad news. Ron Duguay was always a wonderful chat. A legendary Ranger w infectious enthusiasm. He also fused so many worlds: sports, fashion, culture and nightlife at a very exciting time in NYC history. He was so positive thru this battle. RIP.
It’s with a shattered heart, but also deep peace knowing Ron is with Jesus now. He fought so hard. Love never ends❤️

This is the opposite of what Elon Musk said last week.

1/ This is so extremely wrong. I understand people are spreading around the Kara Swisher quote. Swisher is not a member of Congress. Musk chose to take on a high-profile pseudogovernmental role with DOGE. He also, according to the admin, is responsible for the Ukraine slowdown...

Yes. All the laws Trump cites to take these equity stakes existed before Trump. Yet NO PRESIDENT - incl. Biden & Obama - interpreted them as giving the executive branch the power to own shares in private companies. That's partly bc the old GOP would have FREAKED.
No longer.

Now that Witkoff has called Putin a "humanitarian," I think the Ukrainians should name something after him.
Recall that the term Molotov cocktail was coined by the Finns, because the Soviet Foreign Minister insisted that incendiary bombs were "airborne humanitarian food deliveries." So the Finns called their improvised incendiary bombs, "Molotov cocktails."
I don't want to get too dark, but calling children's burial shrouds, "Witkoff sheets," or prosthetic legs and arms "Witkoff limbs," or mass graves "Witkoff developments," would be poetic justice.
Witkoff already has more money than he'll ever need. But making his grubby immoral sycophancy to a mass murderer an indelible part of history would have value.

Doocy: "Elon Musk has issues with the way his technology is being used [by Ukraine]. He believes these commercial products are being used for offensive military operations. He doesn't want that. He thinks it's bad for business. He might have throttled it."
Starshield is a military product, but most importantly: Ukraine is the victim of aggression. All of its military operations utilizing Starshield/Starlink on its own sovereign territory are strictly DEFENSIVE measures against Russia's illegal invasion.
Throttling a product you’ve sold, especially one your customers rely on for their very survival, is very bad for business. I hope Europe is paying attention.

🚨#BREAKING: Outrage is erupting in Virginia after police showed up at a mother’s home at 2 A.M. and TOWED HER CAR over a SH00TING she had NOTHING to do with...
...because a FLOCK CAM pointed them to the WRONG CAR!!!
Now her car is a TOTAL LOSS and she MIGHT LOSE HER JOB!!!!
Yes, you read that right, a Flock camera got it wrong, the cops took her car ANYWAY, and she’s the one paying for it.
Her name is Rosalyn Crump, she’s a mom raising 3 boys in Richmond VA
On July 29th, just before 2 in the morning, Richmond police officers showed up outside her home on Sussex Street.
She was ASLEEP, but someone woke her up and told her police were outside and her car was being towed.
Police say the Flock system had linked her 2012 Hyundai Elantra to a sh00ting near Gilpin Court and body camera footage shows the officers shining flashlights through her windows.
At one point, one of them seemed to doubt they even had the right car.
They noticed her KIDS’ CAR SEATS were buckled in the back, but they towed it anyway.
Rosalyn came outside and told them flat out: “Y’all got the wrong car.”
She told them she’d been at her mom’s house all day, came home at 4, and waited for her kids to get off the bus at 5.
Nobody had driven her car.
An officer decided her story didn’t match the Flock data and said on camera that she was, “definitely not telling the truth.”
Minutes later, Seibert’s Towing hauled her car away.
If you think that was insane... well, IT GETS WORSE.
About FOUR DAYS later, she finally got a phone call.
Her car had been released FOUR HOURS after they took it... because police had already found the person they were actually looking for.
NOBODY FROM THE POLICE TOLD HER!!!!!
When she went to get her car back, she found it DAMAGED from the tow.
The towing company’s VP admitted fault in writing.
Then the claim went to insurance, and the company said it could no longer settle with her directly.
Her mechanic’s verdict:
TOTAL LOSS.
Richmond police now admit Flock cameras led them to the wrong vehicle.
Meanwhile, Rosalyn has lost wages, can’t get to work on time, and is paying for a RENTAL CAR out of her own pocket just to get her boys where they need to go.
She literally did nothing wrong and was home with her kids.
THIS IS INSANE!!!!!!!!

Zelensky needs to do more Fox News. More interviews like this. Keep it clear, simple, no criticisms of Trump, just emphasize how Russia is the obstacle.
NEW: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy tells @kilmeade he would accept a peace deal that freezes the war along the current frontlines, calling it a realistic way to stop the fighting.
He says Ukraine would then seek security guarantees from President Trump and European allies to ensure peace and security.
"We call it ceasefire or stop killing like President Trump called it. Freeze and stop. And of course this is minimum what we need from Russia today." | @foxandfriends

.@DLoesch reacts to a new ad featuring Ohio Democratic gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton’s estranged, abusive mother urging voters not to vote for her daughter.
“If you can’t debate on the issues, you don’t need to be dredging up family history you were not privy to.”

David Beasley spent more than three decades as a Republican, serving as South Carolina’s governor. He recently announced that he’s walking away from his party as he laments a rise in toxic vitriol emanating from the GOP’s standard-bearer.
"The vitriolic language, the demeaning, divisive, degrading that has taken place, is just completely out of control, and I don't want to be associated with that," he tells @RealAmnaNawaz.

Q: There was a report that FEMA is telling states to prepare to handle disasters on their own. Any reaction?
OSSOFF: So the Trump administration is telling folks across the country to prepare to fend for themselves while taxpayer dollars are sent to back Don Jr and Eric's mining interest in Kazakhstan?

So many dunks are two people talking past each other. You rarely get so clean a kill.
Trump: We were in the midst of negotiating and a lot of stupid people said why aren’t you putting Russian sanctions—
Collins: But you said you didn’t give anything for his release
Trump: If I didn’t do that, you wouldn’t have him coming back.
Collins: So you did give something.
Trump: You don’t know anything. You’re fake news CNN.
Collins: You’re saying you lifted the sanctions in exchange for his release?
Trump: You don’t know what you’re talking about. You’re a low IQ person. You’re a dummy.
