The Attack on Ohio’s Energy Grid: The Lawfare that put Householder in jail was an assult, not justice

To remind everyone, Larry Householder, the former Speaker of the Ohio House of Representatives, is serving a jail term of 20 years.  And knowing now what I said then, the case was purely about politics and nothing about justice.  The same courts that have been trying to put Trump in jail are what’s at work here.  When you are in the Speaker position and you have to raise money for your party, what are you supposed to do when a company that supplies power to the energy grid in the form of two nuclear power plants in northern Ohio are being pushed out of business by that same government, the case from top to bottom was as dirty as it gets.  And it wasn’t Householder who was the dirty dealer.  The entire FirstEnergy case is about Democrats who were jealous of the power Republicans have in Columbus, and they used lawfare to attempt to break up that control and wrestle power back in their favor.  And they targeted Householder because he was trying to save an energy company that was targeted by the Obama administration for destruction as a progressive war against energy, which we saw during the Biden administration was purposeful and malicious.  Democrats and progressives wanted to reduce the power grid away from its known levels and shove everyone into solar and wind without having any real means to supply the demand that consumers needed.  Instead, the plan was to reduce the supply and force people to cut back on their needs.  The federal government targeted FirstEnergy to go out of business so that the Ohio power grid could not sustain the needs of consumers, and that was always the real story.  I wouldn’t call what Householder was doing to try to save the company bribery, a kind of pay-to-play scheme, politics.  The real problem was the attack on Ohio’s energy grid, which was the real menace in the story.

That’s not to say that Larry Householder and others in the Republican Party were squeaky clean.  There is a way to handle a situation like that correctly, and they did not handle the pressure or the temptations well.  Calling Householder a mob boss as if he were Al Capone or some other mobster is disingenuous, and only reflects that Democrats don’t have similar personality types in their party that can take control in Columbus.  However, when it comes to Republicans, taking Householder off the map only allowed other characters to fill the void, and that’s not a bad thing.  When we elect these people, we expect to get things done, and we expect the party we elect into power to keep that power, and sometimes the game can get messy.  But we want our people to win the game by whatever means necessary.  Where the line gets crossed is when you start accepting gifts and vacations, even if well-intentioned.  For people like Householder, the power can go to their heads, and they can get lost in the process.  But the forced lapse in judgment wasn’t caused by some power-hungry maniac as much as it came from a desperate power company under attack by the government itself, seeking help from the Republican Party to stay viable.  It wasn’t mismanagement that was causing FirstEnergy to go out of business and need a bailout, it was the purposeful government rules and regulations that were intent to destroy them so that all people would be forced to turn away from their power needs and manage a shortfall, just like what California has seen with its brownouts and the push to force them to run their air conditioners less in the summer, and make concessions to their power consumption.  The attack on the American energy grid is the real story and is what is hiding behind the optics of throwing the Speaker in Ohio in jail over pure politics.

This is a war by radical communists disguising themselves as “progressives” attempting to torpedo the American economy with regulatory policy meant to destroy our energy infrastructure, and it’s no different than if planes from China had attacked our homes with a bombing campaign.  If you trace the money in the way that the federal case against Householder was conducted, you would see George Soros’s money funneling into the Ohio Democrat Party by all kinds of back-door means, and many hostile agents against America like him.  Many of the Democrats who were crying foul in the Householder case, hoping to gain political power in the vacuum of leadership during the trial, are doing the business of countries hostile to America and seeking its destruction.  When you are against the American power grid and trying to make the intent to destroy it with a feel-good environmental concern, you are doing far worse than what the Speaker was accused of.  But the complicit media played along, hung a politician they didn’t like who was a leader in a party they wanted out of power, and they used the levers of corruption of our court system to perform the task of putting someone in jail to hide their complicity in destroying the power grid of Ohio.  I hear it every time I go to Columbus, where attorneys and lawyers brag about their role in implementing solar farms, such as the one outside Chillicothe, Ohio.  And strong-arming companies into EPA compliance that could come straight out of the Karl Marx playbook. No, the real bad guys didn’t go to jail.  They jailed the people standing in their way. 

While all this was going on with Householder, the same federal court system was trying to put Trump in jail. It was destroying Rudy Giuliani’s law practice for defending Trump.  And the now-famous mug shot of Trump was broadcast around the world as the real threats to America were showing their control over our court system.  So, Householder going to jail is nothing short of an exhibition of that abuse of power.  It is tough to stay completely clean in anything when so much money is involved, and you have to give Trump credit for running about as clean a ship as anybody in his position could, because nothing stuck to him.  But if he had not won the presidency again in 2024, he would have had similar charges thrown at him as Householder saw.  And Trump would have been sentenced to not just 20 years, but over 100.   And Big Tish James would be free of any scandals of her own, which she is now wonderfully drowning in.  It’s not enough to say that they are all dirty and that corruption should be cleaned up.  The real game is that the federal government thinks it can pick winners and losers, and it picked FirstEnergy to be a loser because they were trying to supply power to a state in need.  And the government run by Obama, then by Biden, wanted to destroy that power supply to force people closer to a zero-emission world with untested clean energy they knew wasn’t ready to replace the state’s energy needs.  And they used political power through the courts they control to remove their political opponents from the battlefield, and to put them in jail to warn others away from standing in front of them.  That’s the truth about Larry Householder’s case.  And not enough people defended him when they should have, because the next victim could be anybody.

Remember, Larry Householder is Innocent until Proven Guilty: Don’t be a sucker for liberal activism and DeWine’s desire to avoid impeachment

I think its first wise to remember that House Speaker Larry Householder from the Ohio House of Representatives is innocent until proven guilty. I happen to know personally that the House has been looking to garner support to impeach Governor Mike DeWine and Householder was obviously the leader of the House which would be required to put forth the hearings and to start that looooooonnngg process. So the timing of this bribery case with FirstEnergy and the two nuclear powerplants that were the subject of a recent billion dollar plus recovery which Larry Householder led the charge is very suspicious to me. I do like Householder, he’s way too liberal for me, but I think he’s a pretty good guy. The $60 million in what the media is calling bribery sounds like a lot of money to the young 20 something reporters who are just a few years removed from living in their parents house, but in the scheme of things, its not very much money. It is a problem if Householder used some of that money, roughly $400,000 on private desires, but we’ll see. There is an awful lot fishy about this entire case and the timing of it, and how quickly Governor DeWine asked Householder to resign his job as speaker.

Many have forgotten but the case at the press conference was laid out by the prosecutor, a Trump appointee I might add, was already covered last year and it was a nothing burger. FirstEnergy was a company suffering under the heavy Obama administration mandates for a emission free society and their whole purpose was to put companies like FirstEnrgy out of business, this political aggression going back for most of the last decade. It was the purpose of the climate change radicals and the Obama administration to put coal and nuclear power out of business in favor of solar and wind power. So its no surprise that Republicans, especially Trump supporters in elected offices, would want to reverse that trend and help Ohio with traditional jobs not destroyed by environmental activists and Marxist leaning political radicals. That was how Householder and others became involved in the very contentious FirstEnergy bailout. Its really not much different than the multi-trillion-dollar bailout the government provided everyone over Covid-19. When government makes your business fail, they owe you something, and FirstEnergy found themselves in that predicament.

I noticed several troubling elements of the press conference by prosecutors and the Cincinnati branch of the FBI, the case they spelled out, which they say involved a year and a half of investigation was essentially based on newspaper articles written by climate change activists in July of 2019. So, the investigation into Householder and others started the same time the debate began on this issue and was largely shaped back then by political enemies of Householder. The whole dark money distribution that the FBI illustrated in this case was already presented by reporters in nearly the identical detail, so that leaves the question to be answered, what new did the FBI and prosecutors do over that whole time, and why now exploit it for an arrest of Householder, the most powerful Republican in Columbus, Ohio? Even stranger, at the end of their press conference prosecutors and the FBI asked for more information on this case, as if they were just using old newspaper reports already on the record and trying to resurrect the story now hoping to bring forth more witnesses from the public during a highly contested election year, where there are fights for power in both houses—that might possibly be more friendly to Governor DeWine? Hmmmmm. Its something to contemplate.

Radical climate change activists have witnessed in 2020 realizations they could have never dreamed of in 2019, watching all of society essentially shut down over Covid-19, watching Mike DeWine essentially turn into a Democrat, and to see fractures in the Republican Party crack along the dealing with the self-imposed crises. The time to strike at Householders grip on the Republican Party was now, and perhaps an even greater ally in DeWine could be made as he moved obviously much further to the political left. That’s just a thought I have based on experience. It wouldn’t surprise me if all that was true, and additionally, if the former Attorney General himself didn’t put the FBI on the breadcrumbs of the FirstEnergy relationship with Householder to shake off talks by the House to impeach him. I don’t think anybody would argue these days that any such contemplations are beyond the realm of reality. Additionally, due to the lazy investigation by the FBI and federal prosecutors it looks like they are on their own marketing campaign to restore faith in their services, but that they were so lazy, they didn’t even do their own investigation, but simply lifted their case off the ‘The Intercept’ reporting on the matter July 26th of 2019.

Politics is dirty business, its hard to keep people honest when access to so much money is flying around. Good people go bad all the time and bad people are attracted to the profession for all the reasons that the media and political enemies of Householder are piling on to crucify him. Hidden in their comments are traces of anti-American Marxism and a downright dirty hatred of Republicans who promote profit for any company. We are to believe that FirstEnergy is a vile “capitalist” company that needs to be brought down because they are not committed to the zero-emission green new deal standards of the communist climate change activists. So, any definition on the matter other than the one they have established becomes the media standard and Householder and his partners must defend themselves from that guilt first stance. It’s the same liberal argument that assumes that every white person is guilty and owes people of color reparations and should kneel before the National Anthem to show solidarity to some minority group.  Climate change is the same kind of radical argument, earth first instead of using the earth to advance mankind into an interplanetary species. This case is very much about taking out those who stand against climate change and other progressive platforms and advancing in the minds of voters the merits of new forms of energy, even if they do suck in delivery.

When the House debated House Bill 6, which is what it was called in 2019 what Republicans eventually agreed to was that to save the cost to the monthly bills that the bailout would cost customers, it was agreed to sunset many of the green new deal aspects of the regulatory mandate, which offset much of the incurred costs of the bailout. That’s what the climate activists are angry about, and that is essentially the case that the FBI has against Householder, and that is likely why Governor DeWine is quick to jump on the bandwagon. He’s turning toward more liberal vantage points anyway, and for him, it kills the talk of impeachment led by Householder because it forces the House to re-establish their leadership culture. And not to mention, Democrats are looking to flip Ohio to blue and to attack Trump energy policies. By sending a few dozen Republicans from the House into a FirstEnergy bribery scandle a few months before the election, they achieve a lot of what they’d love to do to harm Trump’s grip on Ohio. DeWine isn’t a big Trump fan, like John Kasich, he’s more of a Democrat. Who doesn’t think he’d assassinate Republicans calling for his impeachment by calling in favors to a liberalized, activist FBI and Department of Justice trying to support a governor they’ve known for a long time and to pull the party back to the left where it was before President Trump? I think DeWine is just that kind of guy, and an alliance with Democrats gets him what he wants. He loves Amy Acton, it looks like he would become a liberal if they’d have him, and this attack on Householder is just the way to do it. Hmmmm, I bet these thoughts are much more than fiction. Likely, they are the true story of what is really going on……and it wouldn’t be the first time.
