Whenever someone lies, the AM frequencies leave their voice. And it is at the subconscious level so that one cannot manipulate their voice to cover up the lies. That is how "Lie Detectors" by the CIA or Secret Service work. The simply watch heart rate, and vocal analysis, that's it. And we're talking 97% - 98% accurate. There are a few people that get away with it due to "operator error" or problems with the machinery, but that's it. In other words, you can hear it in their voice (and your gut feeling tells ya) when someone lies. Period.. Not to mention just knowing the person. "Career politician". 98% guaranteed Liar! We desperately need term limits for politicians at every level. And a 3rd choice on the ballot: "None of the Above!" Trump is the only non career politician in Washington. He has enough money you can't bribe him. He should be seen as an example of what politicians "should be" in the country. 4 more years and Trump would be out of politics. He seriously in heart wants to do what he can to help people in the country. He kept prices low, and borders closed (mostly) when he was in office. I don't see the the problem. Except he threatens career politicians in both parties. Which is the real problem with our political system. No term limits and no 3 rd choice. We can't never seem to vote the incumbents out of office Democrat or Republican. Nancy Pelosi is 88 years old?! What is she doing in office?? It's nuts, and threatening our country having the same people in office 40-50 years! (Litmus test for office - If you can't safely drive a car, you shouldn't be in office! lol) take care.

Well yeah, he knows anything he says can be used against him. If DeWine is involved arrest, charge and prosecute him.

“people have got to know whether or not their governor is a crook.” 😮

[@johannjohann6523]

45 years in office means with 100% certainty he is! God forbid the little guy go and get a real job once in his life. Or volunteer his time or money to a charity like the Red Cross. I bet he'snever offerred his time or money for a charity. I bet no politician does.

[@scottmalek3482]

Can somebody please contact the Federal department of Justice and the FBI to investigate Mike dewine

[@scottmalek3482]

Ohio and it is time to force criminal corrupt Governor Mike dewine to step down

[@johannjohann6523]

That is the face of a guilty little man!

[@blusau8561]

Did DeWine just say that 45 years in office earns him a pass to commit crime?

[@johannjohann6523]

No. that was when he passed the 25 years anniversary mark in office.

[@Troubles0125]

45 years and maybe never got caugh before HUH....

[@joeljoss1916]

Get him outta here! Yeah, that was a cat that swallowed the canary moment.😵‍💫🤒😨

[@maryklever1633]

Well well well 😮

[@TheHood44]

Dewine should be impeached

[@hermanmunster714]

I applaud News ch 5 for covering this story. Dewine Never Did Answer the question. He stumbled and deflected buying time talking about his 45 years as office holder. An FBI profiler would see through his tactics. Get rid of this stooge been crooked for years.

[@johannjohann6523]

The Lie Detector Machine's Alarm just went off!

[@johannjohann6523]

45 years in office means guaranteed corruption. Hell 25 years in office guarantees corruption!

[@davidellis4084]

I have an even bigger question Why has HB 6 not been repealed yet?

[@BryanTorok]

It has. Why don't you know that?

[@GregMartinez-g4r]

Wow

[@BryanTorok]

So, the questions are: What did DeWine know of the scheme and when did he know it? So far, and despite campaign contributions, there is no evidence of any criminal wrong doing on his part. Emails between people saying DeWine was good on their issue are meaningless as evidence of criminality. At one point I chaired a PAC. DeWine was favorable on our issue most of the time, but we never gave him dime. Also, I was in favor of HB 6 even though my electric rates would go up by a trivial amount. I was willing to pay to have reliable electrical supplied on a reliable grid from USA and Ohio based companies. In particular, I wanted to keep China, the Chinese Communist party, out of having control or influence over our energy production and delivery.

[@hermanmunster714]

So far...? 😆 Until the DOJ starts digging.

[@hermanmunster714]

Ps.....this was never about the communist party...this was about First Energy wanting to pass the full cost of their toxic clean ups onto their customers....no communists involved just usual corporate dark money.

[@BryanTorok]

@@hermanmunster714 It has been years already. If it hasn't been found, maybe it just isn't there.

[@vijayanpisharody4038]

How does this affect the Biden / Pelosi familee😂 ?

[@johannjohann6523]

DeWine is just like Biden. Just like Pelosi. In office too many fricking years! We need term limits and age limits now for politicians or the corruption will never cease! That's why Trump is such a threat in Washington DC. He is the ONLY Non-Career politician in Washington DC and has enough money you can't bribe him. Just that reason alone is reason enough to elect him for another 4 years. ANd that's it. He's done with politics. He is an example of what politicians should be in AMerica. Someone "offering a few years of their time to give back to the country that has offered them freedom to choose and follow their desires in life". That was how America was supposed to meant to be. Not how "Rich" you can get ripping off poor people.(Trump has been one of the honest few to rip off rich people instead of poor people with his businesses. Can you afford to join his Country Club? lol) Not perfect, just lessor of two evils.
