There needs to be a Senate autopsy in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Montana. I hope #Maine voters have seen the real Susan Collins and will do the right thing in Nov 26. I want #Iowa voters to show the rest of us how independent thinking the can be by forcing Joni Ernst into retirement.

She won't side with any other party, ever. She has shown he true colors and now her career is done.

Is it done? I guess we have to wait and see, but I do not trust she will be done. Iowians voted for Grassley again.

Copaganda: tell everyone to be scared of street crime, to shift the conversation away from white collar crime and the systemic social conditions that create poverty and suffering, all while allowing the police state to flourish and grow.

Vote for a used car salesman you get a used car salesman Senator. But is he any worse than Cruz or Graham or Cotton or Rick Medicare Fraud Scott or Tommy Tupperville? There’s no room for a Romney or a McCain or a Flake any more. The North Korean Branch of The Republican Party is in charge.

I sure as fu*k didn't

Republicans are the biggest chickenshits in the world.

I’m sure Chicago & NY are delighted by your absence.

Pathetic and awful. Just like when they elected him.

The cognitive dissonance between their adulation of hypermasculinity and their muck-sweat fear of ordinary people living ordinary lives. Make it make sense.

They are liars, hypocrites, racists, and financial elitists. Too many liars, hypocrites, racists, and wanna-be financial elitists like that, but will never be part of the club. and too many others can't bother to vote.

It is always funny to me how many of these right wing, 2nd amendment tough guys and gals are scared shitless of big (and not so big) cities. Who are the snowflakes? I wonder.

What big cities has he been to lately?

Pretty shocking for a Senator to be threatening his own constituents like this instead of advocating for them.

Hope I’m not tempting fate,but my husband completed boot camp at Great Lakes & have travelled to Chicago since-no issues.Love NYC & am close enough to visit at least once a year- no issues. He is in government- why is he not offering solutions? The murderous bill will increase crimes of desperation

Yet another perpetually pants pissing scared right wing man--the biggest, whiniest, most scaredy-cat babies on earth.

The coup is complete

Right on 💔🇺🇸

Sherrod Brown was on the Senate Banking Committee and skeptical of crypto. Bernie Moreno was/is a luxury car dealer with questionable campaign finance practices, on the ballot solely to favor crypto, and no interest in helping other than rich Ohioans.

But consider this about crypto:

The many nefarious flavors of crypto.

Here’s his response letter used for every Ohio voters who write concerning issues of importance. It’s a polite F-off.

signalohio.org/sherrod-brow...

Not even a concept of a plan?

What’s the word I’m looking for?

I'm utterly sickened my state voted for this disaster of a person.

It really does hurt to see Columbus and the major metro areas vote blue yet so often the state as a whole goes red. We thought Moreno had no chance, especially given how great Sherrod had been. 😑

One of the many things I got wrong in 2024 is, I assumed that after 2 years of Senator JD Vance, Ohio voters would be ready to punish the GOP for nominating shitty Senate candidates. Nope.

Moreno should realize sooner than later than all those big scary cities’ citizens are now jumping with joy to know he will never enter them again.

I live in Cincinnati and have no concerns about going out. Who is going to protect us from you?

Look at his voting record. This is not a competent, serious person looking out for his constituents. This is an individual interested in enriching himself by pandering to Trump & MAGA.

Not me…I 💯 voted for Sherrod and daily pinch myself to see if this is truly the world we live in. Another joke in a position of power. I despise this timeline!

He’s really cringe

Our state is so gerrymandered it’s ridiculous and disheartening.

Dreadful.

I'm in Chicago now. Have yet to feel scared. Honestly, I can't remember a time I've ever been scared when I've been here.

They voted for Trump. They're dumb. D-U-M-M dumb.

We must demand to know where the money is coming from and that it be spent on the cancer research, snap, Medicare/Medicade, Vets services etc that they just cut in the budget bill because they claim there was no money!!! youtu.be/P8YBsrore5g?...

WTF?

Scared of crime? What a wuss. Bernie Moron-o. He can go eff himself.

JD's brother has played a huge part in fanning the flames film the "after bar brawl" that took place. It only makes sense that Moreno is now attacking Cincinnati. ( Which has basically ALL Dem leadership. )

The crime he's afraid of is that those cities hate his guts and they show up to tell him whenever he's there.

Total POS. He was born in Colombia. If he gets out of line Trump might denaturalize him.🤷‍♂️

First, Wisconsin downgrades from Russ Feingold to Ron Johnson (still the worst Senate seat downgrade ever). Then Missouri gives up Claire McCaskill for Josh Hawley. Then Ohio drops from Sherrod Brown to Bernie Moreno -- AS Montana replaces Jon Tester with Tim Sheehy. 📉

I’m pretty sure that in terms of senate downgrades, Tommy Tuberville replacing Doug Jones beats out Wisconsin

Ooh. I'dforgotten that one. It's at least as bad as the Feingold>Johnson tragedy. Any others?

Yeah, can you believe this insanity?

I sobbed. For loss of a great Senator and for my state of birth.

Which great senator?

We also rejected redistricting our very gerrymandered state…we’re not that bright

Dang! Ohio WTFU

The most frightening thing is that this is the narrative that justifies the military in cities described in the memo leaked by TNR.

Where are my Sherrod Brown voters ✊🏼 solidarity from Cuyahoga

As a lifelong Ohioan, I couldn’t agree with you more. We once were a great state in many ways. Our steep decline is shameful. The most corrupt state government in the US, a failing economy. GOP is completely responsible. Yet Maga buffoons keep voting for them.

Ohio used to have REALLY GOOD SENATORS!

And OSU won a natty but still couldn’t beat Michigan.

Yet the highest murder rates are in the GOP red states.

It takes the biggest and bravest of strong men to not hypothetically visit a city millions of women and children quite comfortably live their lives in.

Let’s get Moron-o to put every place on his watch list; a self-imposed home detention

Not my choice by any means. Never. Ever.

It's Ohio. There's a reason so many astronauts come from there; spending time there gives you an overwhelming desire to leave the planet.

What a pathetic baby

Not I. Criminal car salesman says what?

I suspect that if trump weren't running last year, Brown would have squeaked out a win.

Another state whose electorate is deeply broken, and will learn the hard way just how terrible this trump rent boy Moreno is.

I didn’t!!

The big city narrative is ridiculous but they push it like drugs.

But did they really choose him? It’s hard to imagine a Senator more loyal to his constituents than Sherrod Brown. That election smells rotten.

The state been cut up like pizza day in school

Gerrymandering doesn't really affect statewide races like US Senator or Governor. On the other hand, voter suppression DOES. I'd look into that if I were an Ohioan.

Fair point. But to your second point, yes we have a lot wrong here. Repub supermajority introducing legislation to undo items citizens voted on, First Energy bribes, shady football stadium deals. It’s quite corrupt here

Moreno got the plurality of votes - he did not reach 50%. If not for the millions of $$ that the crypto supporters funneled into the race, Brown would still be in the Senate & on the Banking committee. I hope he runs next year for the Senate seat vacated by Vance, now held by former Lt Gov Husted.

Red Arkansas has more crime

Not me.

I was thinking the same thing. But dude is a used car salesman by profession so he knew how to push the right buttons to get the less than intelligent people to vote for him

Hi, Ms. Ifill. Huge Fan. Always, always thought you one of the great minds. Love your work, consider you an absolute hero. Live in Cincinnati (solidly blue) voted f/ Brown, statewide, 46.5% f/ Brown, 50.1% f/ Moreno. So, w/ utmost respect, I say: Carpet bag somewhere else. This is bush league.

A literal used car salesman

Unbelievable

Truly astonishing. I’m not a conspiracy theorist…but did he reeeally win….

Dude must be terrified of his shadow.

Gerrymandering

The entire state voted in the Senate race. We can’t blame gerrymandering for this.

Not those of us with ethics and a conscience 😖

I called for Brown in 2008. It was a big year! Wore my Move On "I called for change and America answered" tee with such pride. But if Americans can't remember for more than 2 years who is working For Them, we can't get anywhere, and it's killing me over here!

Lucky for us he doesn’t visit nyc

Ohioan here. The Koch brothers invested a LOT of money in smearing Brown.

Still makes me sick to my stomach that we elected this POS over Sherrod Brown.

Same

I was just in Chicago for two weeks. It’s lovely! The joy of walking to the beach,a farmers market, a grocery store, the dog wash is unbelievable. Safe and so wholesome!The city maintains the most gorgeous landscaping.The have huge containers of well maintained beautiful flowers all over the place.

Exactly! Chicago is vibrant and full of life, people who actually spend time there know better. Don’t buy the fear hype.

Shameful.

my personal disgust aside for how men infantilize their cruelty as a mask for their deep moral depravity. the practiced earnest psychopathology of white supremacist and fascist MALE politicians should be studied. i’m also tired of these men talking about their “babies” like props.

What a pussy!

❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️

Powerful!

Zero surprise, yet I love to see it!

Obviously a bullshit talking point, but it does always make me laugh to see this big tough alpha men (which all MAGA men are of course!) scared of walking through a place where people live.

Reminds me of the article I saw "You want a Trad wife? First you need to learn to be a Trad husband".

These people are the biggest wimps. Afraid of their own shadows.

Good enough for our VP to live there. Pretty sure you’ll be “fine” Moreno.

Boggles. The. Mind.

I voted for Brown; I tried.

We don’t want him visiting NYC anyway. He’s supposed to represent all of Ohio. Not just the folks he deems safe. And he should thank NY and IL for giving more tax dollars to the federal government than Ohio.

This coordinated city-so-scary propaganda campaign… They’re planning to do terrible things to us in blue cities, in the name of clamping down on crime. This is all pretext, isn’t it?

He should be scared of the bigoted racist police in Cincinnati who, if he got a good tan and it was night, might give him the "walking at night while Black" treatment. A good example of why I escaped from there.

Oh ffs. He needs to look at the statistics, not Fox News 🙄😒

The majority of voters in Ohio are idiots.

Oh, what happened? A server was mean to him at Peter Luger’s? Boo fuckin’ hoo.

Not all of us did. What Ohio *really* needs is strong democratic leadership. They've given up on Ohio as a red state and we're only red due to heavy gerrymandering, which they allowed with weak leadership.

I devoted myself for a time, sending voter postcards for Sherrod Brown. An easy ask. I don't know where we're at, anymore.

They did. This dude has a record of stealing overtime pay from his employees. Ohio is solid red, unfortunately.

We are gerrymandered. We also had the same voting machines that were said to have assisted in illegal wins for nazis in other states.

Gerrymandering doesn't really affect statewide races like US Senator or Governor ... "We also had the same voting machines that were said to have assisted in illegal wins for nazis in other states." ... but voter suppression DOES. I'd look into that if I were an Ohioan.

Brown ran a terrible campaign

priming the pump for the use of military in cities across America. MAGA talking points demonizing cities. They are planning to deploy military like they did in LA. The pretext is immigration. The end result is state repression.

🤯

There were 5 Bernie Moreno ads for every 1 Sherrod Brown. It was ridiculous. Doods an absolute moron.

He's shilling fear propaganda--they can't not lie, cheat, and steal.

Chicago crime continues to be down. Our city is safe. This is race bating for their base. I hear the same bs from my MAGA Indiana extended family.

OHIO! 🇺🇸🤡😢

Pretty sure you can’t be arrested for being a cunt and the first amendment protects you even if you talk like one.

Ohio WTFU

He was backed by billionaire money. And too many people didn’t vote which really ticks me off

It’s an OH thing called stupidity! Ya know like the repugnant Smurf governor, corrupt and incompetent politicians; Turner, Vance, Jordan …. I’ll run out of space. The pathetic excuse for decency, honesty and integrity that has been pervasive in this state my entire life. Just pathetically vile

From the wonderful state that brought us Vance. What’d ya expect?

This guy is a dumbass. PER CAPITA - If he understands what that means, Cincinnati has a SIGNIFICANTLY higher crime rate than either Chicago or NYC. He's a fear mongering, propaganda spreading fascist piece of garbage.

I live in NYC. He can stay in his safe space of Ohio. We good.

Disgraceful and also unsurprising

I'm 75 years old, regularly take a 3-hour bus to Chicago by myself, and walk the several blocks to Michigan Avenue and the Art Institute. That's after I stop for a coffee at Dark Matters at Jefferson and Jackson. Fear is inhibiting, feel sorry for this guy. His world is shrinking and he's so young.

Too many unserious, uneducated, uncaring Republicans in our nation.

THIS GUY is almost as big a psychological cripple as Donnie Dim-Wit and JuDas Vance.

Ohio has become a shithole state. Or maybe it always was? Texas has always been a shithole state.

aka Make Cincinnati White Again I hope everyone is really starting to see the dog whistles these snowflakes are using repeatedly isn't going to keep working. People are fed up with the divisive language and really it's all MAGA knows how to do. They recite this stuff like prayers before bed.

Funny, I was much more comfortable in the streets of NYC at night than in the south

None of our major cities did. We’re gerrymandered to all hell and it really sucks

Sherrod deserved to lose for violating the Americans with Disability Act. Same for Jon Tester. It is just too bad for us, but throwing disabled people under the bus is as wrong as it is to throw LGBTQ people under the bus.

As an Ohioan, I’m embarrassed every single day.

Exactly.

If you’re a fellow Ohioan, call his office to complain about him trashing an Ohio city. I called his Columbus office and got an actual person to answer the phone. I almost felt bad for her because she didn’t know how to defend him and basically said that since he’s from the Cleveland area…

he doesn’t know the Cincinnati area but that it’s obviously a dangerous place to go to (it’s not).

I couldn't get out of that state fast enough. Left at 18 and never looked back. Too many small-minded people everywhere there.

This is why I don't listen to them when they whine that Democrats don't have policies that help the working class. They didn't help McCaskill either, and she was incredibly pro consumer.

We Ohioans didn’t used to be this way. But we do like a good mob boss. Looking at you Jimmy Trafficant.

it's comical how chickenshit these mama's boys are

He ran away from the Biden Administration. It is his own fault

Paranoid, are we Boyo?

Sing it.

Not the first incomprehensible statewide vote Ohioans fucked up.

How lucky can Chicago and New York be? How many other cities want to be in the same boat they are and not have this asshole cross their border?

Not our family. Bernie is an idiot car salesman and immigrant from Columbia. Ohio deserves better.

A willfully ignorant waste of resources.

These are the “alpha males” that MAGA is pushing.

Yeah, every last one of them is pants-pissing terrified of cities & public transit

An entire election season jammed nonstop with anti-trans commercials in Ohio and this was the result.

They drank the Kool Aid. Good luck with your crops

A pussy ass used car salesman. Typical GOP whitey.

It pains this Ohioan every day.

Yup

Same

Same.

Same

How in the world did we become a nation where whiney, entitled and cowardly white men who are too chicken to ride a subway get elected to bring back “manly” men??? This contemptible lot couldn’t stand up against a noise, let alone defend anyone.

Quacks!!🦆

I don't know who voted for this POS, but it wasn't this Ohioan.

Ummmmm I certainly didn’t. I hate the dude.

Ohio is part of the Cult. 80% completely mad. Just look at Jim “Gym”’Jordan

Chicken shit MOFO

Good…stay out of New York State, you putz. You can’t carry a candle to Sen. Sherrod Brown. Nice going, Ohio.

Unbelievable.

Well, just look at who Alabama replaced Doug Jones with?

So the FBI has continued to show decreasing violent crimes & this guy gets more scared the lower the violent crime rate falls? His logic & maybe math skills seem pretty low!

Hey, if Bernie is scared to come to NYC, I'm a happy gal. (No, I don't live there. I'm an upstate New Yorker with strong protective feelings about the Big Apple and I ain't never been scared to visit. I also love Chicago. WTF is WRONG with these mini-men?)

He can stay in his Ohio trailer park. Biggest safe city NYC doesn’t need him or his cheap dumbass family coming to eat at Applebee’s in Times Square.

And he has to avoid non-cotton underwear, afraid of the chafing.

Good news @sifill.bsky.social Champion of the working class Sherrod Brown is going to announce tomorrow that he’s running against useless Jon Husted for Ohio Senate seat. In the meantime, Bernie Moreno is and insufferable moron. bsky.app/profile/tani...

Yes! I’m in!

👏🏽💙

They chose JD Vance over Tim Ryan. Nuff said.

Yes.

Tim Ryan did a lot of that to himself... he was working so hard to convince Ohioans that he wasn't a Democrat that he didn't really motivate his base very much. And I say that as a self-defined centrist...

I'll take every opportunity I see to say Tim Ryan ran a shit campaign. I got angry every time I saw an ad stressing how willing he was to vote with trump. He was better than Vance, but spent more time courting/soothing maga than rallying Democratic voters.

That seems to be the consensus.

Yup. Totally agree with you!

They have to keep up the fear. Most people MAGA I know keep pointing ring to rape and murder as to why they voted for “T”.

I still can’t believe Brown lost.

We are not afraid of Chicago, the economic hub of America. Right wing chumps are total pussies.

Hilarious. Cincinnati's murder per capita is higher than Chicago's. Lies and more damnable lies.

Sooo scary:

Its sickening

Of course they did, for an understandable reason: They were eating the dogs! They were eating the cats!

Oh yeah! A real MAGA man!

Chicago and NYC are thrilled. Stay the FO, Bern

hey... they gave us JD Vance.... 'nuf said

I agree. But also. Tommy Tuberville. I don’t think anything can top that. And there are multiple Republicans vying for the “more embarrassing than MTG” spot.

Nazis choose Nazis

Asinine

He is a joke. Whenever I try to call, I either get voice mail or a message the mailbox is full. He doesn't even have anyone answering his phones.

And yes, I live in Ohio. It used to be purple before the Orange Turd invaded our country. Hate what he's doing to OUR White House.

Cincinnati is so much better than that piece of 🗑️

😔

I know. Unbelievable.

Akin to New York Democrats voting for corrupt clown Eric Adams instead of Maya Wiley. Criminally negligent.

This is what $40 million of crypto bros money buys. He is on the banking committee making life easier for crypto. See how it works?

...."crime" i.e., POC.

Not all of us but sadly too many did...

The guy is a real idiot.

After all, this is the same state that led in the, “they’re eating the cats and dogs” category.

I sure as hell didn't vote for him. Bastard needs to go back to selling used cars and getting busted for not paying his employees. Useless waste of skin, he is.

So glad he won’t be polluting my city with his presence!

It may be called Ohio. But everything south of Cleveland is Alabama.

Two things 1) I’m old enough to remember how bad crime was in the 70s & 80s. 2) The GOP are snowflakes. 3) I can’t count. 4) Release the Epstein files unredacted.

Manly man.

💯 the voters who elected these frauds own their lies, own their chaos and own their attacks on democracy! They are complicit!!!

Sounds unfit to be a Senator if he’s afraid.

They were scared of all the Haitians eating cats and dogs. At least that what the pedos best friend said.

What’s got him riled is that there were anti-ICE protests in Cincinnati.

What a total idiot. The Republicans want people to be afraid. And what that also tells us is cities are great strongholds of open minds and not easily controlled.

Lame.

Ohio needed a Chicken Lawmaker? Who knew?

He should then avoid the White House and much of the Capitol if he is scared of criminals.

But they're HIS kinda criminals: the ones who wear white collars.

No, not all of us chose #MoronMareno over former Senator Sherrod Brown, Sherrilyn @sifill.bsky.social . In fact, some of us are not only disgusted but ashamed as well.⚖️🗽

They loved to be scared in Ohio. Cats and dogs and birdies!!

snowiest of flakes

Bernie is a wussy! Afraid of everything. Ohio, you fucked up!

Clown said daughter and son-in-law left NYC because they were concerned about grandkids safety. Probably moved outside city, and still commute in for work — like “Your Friends & Neighbors”. Concerned about child safety, while the best friend of child sex traffickers is in our White House right now

Love living in NYC. Hilarious when people who don’t live here tell me how dangerous it is. NYC is greatest city on earth because of our diversity. These racist scumbags are scared around people who don’t look, love, or pray the way they do. They should stay out of NYC — and keep their guns out too
