Seeing a lot of these ads on tv. Curious if anyone has more in depth knowledge of what's going on with these "outsiders" looking to buy out our energy grid. I've seen on commercial specifically calling out China, and another just saying "outsiders."

If I'm thinking of the same thing, I saw a couple of those commercials over the weekend. Does one of them mention Lordstown and have the dude with the "inspire fear" voice saying something like, "They're coming to your door...WITH PETITIONS!!" with all the gravity of someone saying they're coming to rape your family and burn down your house? Because, if so, I'm not exactly sure what they're terrified of, but that commercial cracked me up.

The entire HB6 bailout was a crock, all for the benefit of bondholders at hedge funds – sickening.  Every politician that voted for HB6 was on the take; the electricity lobby in Cbus is by far the most powerful lobby in the state.  The lies and misrepresentations were of epic proportion.  Now there is a referendum afoot to repeal HB6 and again the big-money bondholders are throwing everything they can at defeating the signature drive to get the referendum on the ballot.  Their ads are so far out of line it is pathetic.  Now they are actually bullying the signature collectors and Yost finally issued a final warning to them.  Corruption at its finest, right here in Ohio …….Householder and others are the biggest sleaze balls we have had in a while.

Impressive to see you criticize the HB6 scam. Larry Householder is something else. Met him and a few lawmakers in his pocket at a bar in Cbus last year.
