Ohio Gov Candidate Vivek Faces Huge Backlash for disgusting pro-child rapist ad

[skaxboy 7,253]

Isn’t he a billionaire? Like can’t he just go buy an island and like f k off? He lacks any sort of charm. 

 

His party pushes the false narrative to keep trans women out of bathrooms because they will SA women. Yet here is a woman being called a liar for being assaulted as a child. Like which is it, protect children or nah?

 

I will never forget Michelle Duggar of 19 Kid and Counting fame recording a robocall message for some politician, talking about we can’t let trans ppl in bathrooms. When in reality she had a child predator living in under her own roof.

One of the most disgusting ads I’ve ever seen. 

And the fact millions will march to vote for him is even worse. 

[Bronco 29,927]

Ohio state Republicans are turning on him (DeWyne just called him out)

[Hadrian 3,117]

He needs to be put in prison for life for this, not hold office.

edit: and obviously that "mother" as well, although I'm unsure if there's more than one ad of his like this. I'd rather not watch.

God I can’t wait for him and his big dumbass head to fade into obscurity 

[PartySick 176,348]

It's kinda triggering to hear him say "complains about what someone else did to her" tbh.

He's gonna lose for sure now but that's not enough for me anymore

Billionaire Reid Hoffman gives $10 million to super PAC backing Talarico’s Senate bid in Texas (via The Texas Tribune)

WASHINGTON — Reid Hoffman, the LinkedIn co-founder and prominent billionaire venture capitalist, last month donated $10 million to the main super PAC supporting Democratic U.S. Senate nominee James Talarico, according to newly filed Federal Election Committee records.

While other donors chipped in five‑ and six‑figure sums, Hoffman’s contribution alone was nearly 80% of the second‑quarter haul reported by Lone Star Rising, which took in almost $13 million between April and June. That’s on top of Hoffman’s previous donations of $1 million in February and $500,000 in January.

Lone Star Liberty PAC, the super PAC supporting Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, Talarico’s Republican opponent, raised a fraction of that amount. FEC filings show the committee cobbling together just under $4.3 million from a patchwork of trial lawyers, oil‑and‑gas executives, construction firms and allied PACs, among other donors.

Since launching his Senate bid in September, Talarico has far outpaced Paxton in fundraising, raising over $70 million — more than four times Paxton’s roughly $17 million over the same period. On top of that, Lone Star Rising — which, like all super PACs, cannot legally coordinate with Talarico or any other candidate — has hauled in nearly $22 million, playing a key supporting role in the Austin Democrat’s primary win over U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Dallas, earlier this year.

A prolific Democratic donor, Hoffman had given roughly $77 million to various candidates and committees since 2016, before his spending spree last quarter. Hoffman’s latest check is only slightly smaller than what he gave a leading pro-Kamala Harris super PAC during the 2024 presidential campaign, etching his role as one of the Democratic Party’s most powerful megadonors.

Hoffman’s ties to power recently traced back to Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted sex offender and financier who died in 2019. The release of the “Epstein files” showed Hoffman maintained contact with Epstein after the financier pleaded guilty to soliciting a minor in 2008. The documents showed Hoffman visited Epstein’s private island in the Caribbean in 2014, which Hoffman said was to raise money for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. An FBI review found no indication of wrongdoing, but the circumstance has stirred interparty tensions, with Crockett attacking Talarico for embracing dark money and billionaires despite his anti-corruption message. Talarico, for his part, has advocated for the full release of the Epstein files.

Neither here nor there, just affiliate networks for reference I guess … Reid Hoffman was/is a PayPal Mafioso alongside Founders Fund‘s Thiel, Nosek, and Howery … even (and especially in the age of Citizens United) political candidates seem to find ways to feasibly hedge their own bets …

I just did a brief research into the Paypal Mafia, and it appears that JD Vance is one of Thiels "projects" so to speak. This explains why the tech broligarchy (aside from outliers like Reid Hoffman) seems to be so entrenched in MAGA. They did the correct entryism to get in.

I just saw that! I live right down the street from the Ohio State Capitol and there were people protesting in front of the capital calling for Vivek to suspend his campaign now. It’s everywhere and national news at this point. 
 

honestly DeWine should withdrawal his endorsement. He won’t lose anything. He is running to be re-elected, he already worked with and likes Amy, and Vivek is likely gonna lose now anyway (Ohioans are pissed), so what does DeWine gain realistically by continuing his endorsement? 
 

I would separate myself from Vivek as much as possible right now.
