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.

    Just admit you’re a closet MAGA. Any leftist that cannot do the right thing and are more focused on their fee fees and performative “be on the right side of history” nonsense are just that.

    You sound just like one.

      Democrats had 4 years to reign in Trump and they did shit all. Plus you want us to support fetterman like candidates because “they are our only hope”. Fuck the Democrat party. They are controlled opposition

        Two years with a small majority with some assholes who refused to agree to override the filibuster and vote for important laws and measures. If they would’ve been given a larger majority those assholes wouldn’t have been able to block anything.

        The controlled opposition is literally the article of this post - they’re trying to get you to vote for candidates they actually control and your response is to help them

          Ok cool story bro.

          But why do you expect people to vote for a neo liberal pro Reaganomics Democrat? Why do you expect people to vote against their own self interest when we are all struggling and these Democrats will do shit all to help them? When Biden was in power he didn’t do anything to stop inflation from hurting the working class and tbh so far Trump is pulling a lot of levers to keep prices “under control”. I am absolutely stunned the war in Iran didn’t fucking destroy the market, cause insane gas prices and massive inflation yet! So how the fuck is Trump administration able to get a handle on it that Biden didn’t? Is it because Biden didn’t want to fuck with the profit of corporations? Or was he just fucking incompetent?

          So yea most Democrats are controlled opposition, they are controlled by corporations just like Republicans are. Look at Gavin Newsom: he’s a fucking elitist shit that is pretty much Republican lite.

            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.
