You may have heard about the alleged assassination attempt against Ohio Democrat gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton over the weekend.
"While attending the Canfield Fair, an armed individual lunged at Dr. Acton, injuring multiple people. Dr. Acton and Eric are grateful for the swift and decisive action of law enforcement and are praying for the recovery of those injured. This kind of violence has no place in Ohio. Dr. Acton will always stand up to the chaos, hate and vitriol that pits us against one another," said Addie Bullock, communications director for the Acton campaign.
There's just one problem. This story is a complete lie.
That statement is carefully worded to make you think Acton was standing in a gunman's crosshairs. She wasn't. Acton was never touched, never injured, and never threatened.
An armed man pushed through a crowd at the Canfield Fair on Sunday, knocking down two elderly fairgoers before deputies tackled him and placed him under arrest. Within hours, her campaign and a sympathetic press corps turned an arrest for disorderly conduct into an assassination attempt.
The campaign lied.
Yet, the New York Times, of all outlets, couldn't even back up the Acton campaign's version of events.
"An armed man was arrested Sunday after forcing his way through a crowd toward Dr. Amy Acton, the Democratic nominee for Ohio governor, the authorities said," the paper reported. "Dr. Acton was giving a speech at the Mahoning County Democratic Party tent at a fair in Canfield, in the northeastern part of the state, when a man pushed through the crowd, knocking over two elderly audience members, according to the county sheriff, Jerry Greene, and two witnesses. The man did not draw his weapons, according to Sheriff Greene and the witnesses. Dr. Acton was not injured."

She’s trying to imitate Donald Trump Butler, PA redux. She doesn’t have the gonads so she’s lying her posterior off to pull it off and failing. Pathetic!
Nightmare flashbacks of Hillary under fire in Bosnia
You mean when she was piloting the KC130 in a spiraling descent to avoid AA?
Mm-hm. Yeah. Sure, Jan.
Thank heavens she brought the plane down safely and evacuated the crew. Saving all onboard and countless civilian lives.
Barely escaping while under fire. What a woman!
Oops. That story didn’t survive scrutiny.
Apparently he wasn’t going to harm Acton because they released him already
Well their side thinks gender is fluid and can change from one day to the next, she shows they also believe the truth is fluid as well.
Did she have to execute the corkscrew manuever on the landing to aviid RPG fire? Did they run serpentine? Wait- Don’t tell me til the Cone of Silence is in place
Hahaha. I'm sure she did. But she didn't brag about it. You know, humility and all.
[Gads that's funny. Coming in fast and hot under fire, with flares firing in a corkscrew landing will vacuum pack an airplane. Taking off at max thrust and angle firing flares will do the same thing, but at least you can breathe easy once you're out of the envelope. GOD BLESS our military pilots! And I've had more takeoffs than landings.]
Liars gonna lie...
Maybe her SCREECHING VOICE drove him mad!!
Okay, well and good, but then thpose receiprts were not introduced in this article. Why weren't they?
Since I do not read the New York Slimes, does anyone know what the receipts show?
She’s Ohio’s Fauci.
Blood on her hands. She killed those seniors and deprived their families of a last visit with her nanny rules. She did exactly what the Gov. of NY did. And Elmer Fudd aka DeWhine stood by her side the entire time.
Buckeyes sometimes believe the strangest things. Most are so uninformed that they don’t know who Acton is.
They DO KNOW HER....she was the SUTDOWN DOCTOR during COVID!! They SHOULD HATE HER!
Well, that may be true, but that still is not the receipt’s that the New York Slimes apparently presented. But thanks. 😁🤙
Again this is the best the dims can offer to Ohio 🤮
HAHAHAHAHAHHA... I KNEW IT!!
