$1 million dollars spent on a private jet to fly around the state of Ohio. I can’t think of anything more pathetic. But then I remember how he made his money.

Back in the truck for a long drive across Ohio. Beautiful morning.

When it comes to traveling Ohio, Amy Acton chooses a Jeep Wrangler made in Toledo, Ohio. I choose an American-made Ford F-150. Both assembled by the hardworking men and women of the @UAW. We'd choose that over a Canadian-made Bombardier any day.

Lots of talk out there. But given the chance to actually act on data centers, Vivek Ramaswamy refuses. Same with the statehouse. Pathetic.

All talk. No action. Putting Ohioans’ first isn’t difficult. Ohioans have been clear; we need a conditional moratorium to lower costs, end NDAs and protect communities. Ramaswamy is making it clear he can’t be trusted to put Ohioans’ first

One of Ramaswamy's biggest talking points (and his excuse for flying around Ohio on a private jet) is that we should "celebrate” his success “instead of villainizing it." Why should struggling Ohioans "celebrate" the fact that he has 2 billion dollars 1/

Amy leads. This whiny billionaire follows. On data centers. Gas tax holiday. On lowering costs. And in this race.

For months, Ramaswamy doesn’t answer a single question on policy from Cleveland.com. Amy Acton answers them all. Amy proposes a data center conditional moratorium. Weeks later, Vivek (“data center boom”) Ramaswamy proposes his plan. 1/

Vivek Ramaswamy spends much of his time mansplaining to Amy Acton how she should run her campaign. Never really seen that before. But if we’re gonna give out advice, Vivek, here’s some for ya: - try driving instead of flying—you’ll see and learn so much more about our state 1/

Trust must be earned. Vivek Ramaswamy thinks Ohioans’ trust can be bought. Which is why he’s losing despite spending more than $60M on misleading and disgusting attack ads. 49 days.

Ohioans are working harder than ever but the cost of living has become unmanageable. That’s why @amyactonoh.bsky.social’s number one priority is lowering your everyday costs. Whether it’s your childcare costs, healthcare costs, or groceries, Amy Acton will ease your burden across the board.

Hit Harrison, Jefferson, Guernsey, Meigs, and Lawrence Counties this weekend. For too long, Southern and SE Ohio have been overlooked while the cost of everything keeps going up.

Toledo knows how to do Labor Day! Proud to march alongside Ohioans across Northwest Ohio last week. The strength of Ohio has always come from the people who build it, teach it, protect it and keep it moving.

Nothing like spending Labor Day with the people who keep our communities running. It was great to join Ohio firefighters on Monday and spend the day alongside working people who show up for our communities every single day.

Yet another Ramaswamy ad called out for lies and for misleading Ohioans. The scam artist really can't help himself. How embarrassing.

The Ohio Republican Party and Ramaswamy’s campaign allies continue to amplify dangerous misinformation from fringe conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer. @vivekgramasquamy.bsky.social needs to condemn these malicious lies immediately.

To kick off Labor Day weekend, Vivek Ramaswamy fled the state on his private jet to watch the US Open in NYC with his billionaire friends. Amy Acton honored the hard workers of Ohio at Labor Night at the Akron RubberDucks game. Amy shows up. Ramaswamy flies away.

Vivek Ramaswamy “pumped and dumped” an Alzheimer’s drug that he knew didn’t work, leaving desperate Ohio families broke and hopeless while he made off with hundreds of millions of dollars. He is a scam artist.

Ramaswamy is a creep. He's a scam artist and a liar. Lying about the death of someone's mother, lying about Amy and her family, & shaming sexual abuse survivors to score cheap points. Never seen a worse or more shameful candidate. Ohio sees through it all, so he’s getting more desperate by the day

Just when you thought Vivek Ramaswamy couldn’t lie and cheat any more, he started running an ad that blames Amy Acton for the death of a woman who lives in Kentucky. Not Ohio. If he’ll lie about a woman’s death, what else will he lie about? www.cincinnati.com/story/news/p...

If you made millions scamming people, you will keep doing it. That’s who Ramaswamy is. But to lie about a woman’s death? Blame it on someone in an entirely different state? Disgusting dishonesty by Ramaswamy.

He lied about having a cure for Alzheimer’s to make a buck. He lies about an elderly woman’s death to score cheap political points Ramaswamy will lie about anything. A complete scam artist has no business being in public office. www.dispatch.com/story/news/p...

Caught up with Vicki in Wyandot County—a seventh generation crop and livestock farmer. Between gas and other price increases, beef tariffs, new risk of higher fertilizer prices, worries about soy bean crop, and chaos overall, farmers here are struggling. “We’re really pissed off.”

Vivek Ramaswamy has spent nearly $700,000 on private jet flights around the state this year, all while Ohio families are struggling to afford groceries, utilities, housing, and healthcare. Nothing says “I understand working Ohioans” quite like flying over their communities in a private plane.

Vivek Ramaswamy has shown time and time again that he lacks judgment. He surrounds himself with grifters, abusers, and now federal drug traffickers. How can Ohio trust someone with the safety and security of the state when he can’t even vet his own bodyguard?
