THREAD ON HOLDING TRUMP ACCOUNTABLE FOR HIS LIES IN OHIO

I’m live from Cleveland, and here’s the plan, @OHDems and friends who want to help turn Ohio blue

There’s no way @JoeBiden can fact check every one of Trump’s lies tonight. That would be all he does.

But...

1/
...WE can all hold Trump accountable for his lies tonight. We can make each lie painful for him. And that’s our plan tonight:

It’s become clear....Ohio can end the Trump presidency, and end his plot to undo the outcome before it even starts.

A blue Ohio saves our nation.

So our plan tonight? Every time Trump tells a lie right here in Ohio, let’s hold him accountable right here in Ohio

Every time he lies, make him pay.

Make him feel it

By giving to our effort to turn Ohio blue

We have created a special page for this. And every time Trump lies (if we can keep up) we will call it out and link to our page.

And each time, we hope you will consider holding him accountable for each lie by giving $10 (or more) through the page.

4/

We will keep everyone posted on how much we are holding him accountable.

Bottom line: the more he lies IN Ohio, and about Ohio, the more we want to hold him accountable right here in Ohio.

And we will, by winning here, w your help.

5/

Let’s not force Joe Biden to fact check every lie.

Let’s hold Trump accountable ourselves.

It’s On!

Who’s ready?

END

As much as I loathe all the damage Musk has inflicted on our government and our country, Trump’s latest response in their battle is as dark as it gets.

Let me tell you why:

1/ Image

When I worked in Russia, and as it was growing in corruption in front of our eyes, one of the most clearcut tell-tales of its slide into lawless authoritarianism was that as most people began to behave corruptly—

2/
what determined if you were prosecuted or investigated for that corruption was simply whether you were in power or in good standing with those power.

Political power was essentially about which corrupt entity wielded the tools needed to punish others.

If Project 2025 had had a chapter outlining the role the federal judiciary could play in putting all its dark promises into place—and allowing authoritarianism to advance quickly and broadly—here are what the key elements would be:

1/ Image
1) create immunity for federal officials engaging in official acts

2) make it as difficult as possible for courts and those aggrieved by illegal acts to stop them—even after they have been found to be illegal or when they are blatantly illegal

2/
3) use rulings to create a culture where federal district court orders can be regularly ignored with incredibly slow or no repercussions whatsoever

A huge ruling in Ohio yesterday: universal vouchers struck down as unconstitutional

A 🧵 on some of the damning facts:

1/ Image
1) Columbus City Schools receive only $2,800 per student (45,000 students) from the state, while the 7,500 voucher-funded private school students within its district are funded at more than $5,400 per student

2/
2) Cleveland/University Heights: $1,700 for each public school student vs. $5,500 per private/voucher student in the same community

Husted, We Have a Problem

A 🧵 on the Golden Opportunity to Flip Ohio’s Senate Seat Blue in 2026

Last week, Chuck Schumer flew to Ohio in a not so subtle effort to recruit @SherrodBrown to run for the US Senate in 2026.

The dinner meeting was caught on camera…

1/ Image
…leading to a national story, and a whole lot of people from beyond Ohio asking who the @rooster_ohio is

But these same people should also be asking, more and more intensely, who the sitting Senator is.

His name is Jon Husted, he is a deeply tainted and untested candidate,

2/
and will play a pivotal role in the Senate map next year.

Here’s why.

1. He’s gearing up to support the deeply toxic Big Ugly Budget Bill

Husted is in overdrive touting the budget bill that polls show is deeply underwater. And few states will be hit harder by its worst…
