GOP pushing cats & dogs lies to cover up damaging Bernie Moreno news [View all]


MAGA Senate Candidate Caught Lying to Voters About His Money

But in April, just a few weeks after winning the Republican primary, Moreno spent $9.5 million on a plot of land in Sunbury, Ohio, according to NBC News. Around the same time, Mercedes-Benz Financial Services entered into a mortgage agreement with a company called M20 Realty LLC—one of the 20 businesses that Moreno owns, according to a recent financial disclosure statement. Moreno has signed off on $40 million worth of Mercedes-Benz financing to open up a new dealership, according to the Statehouse News Bureau.

Moreno had signed the mortgage as M20 Realty’s manager and also signed a landlord-tenant agreement between M20 Realty and M20 Motors on behalf of both companies, according to the Delaware County, Ohio, recorder. Moreno said the Sunbury project has been in the works for four years, according to NBC News. In 2022, M20 motors registered for the name Mercedes-Benz Sunbury.

Campaign spokeswoman Regan McCarthy hit back at claims that Moreno had presented his financial interests dishonestly. “The Sunbury dealership is not currently an operating company and is going to be run by Bernie’s son,” McCarthy told the Statehouse News Bureau. “This is an investment by Bernie in a business for his son, not a business for himself.”

In addition to his future plans, it seems Moreno has also been lying about his past. When he applied to open an Infiniti car dealership in Coral Gables, Florida, a document submitted claimed that he had received an MBA from the University of Michigan. Moreno had even signed the application. However, the Michigan Office of Public Affairs told the Ohio Capital Journal Monday that Moreno held only a bachelor’s degree in business.

Ohio DUers: What information do you have about the recent Bernie Moreno news stories? Apparently. Moreno has been pushing anti-immigrant propaganda as well, even though he’s an immigrant himself.

I’m here in Georgia and I’ve not been paying enough attention to the Senate race in Ohio. I know Sherrod Brown is not viewed favorably by some Democrats due to the whole Biden issue, but we do need to keep a Senate majority. Do you think that a majority of Ohio voters will see through the insane anti-immigrant propaganda and vote for Brown?
