Ads for Ohio congressional candidate rage about ‘billionaire Communist Jews’
Radio commercials for Jim Condit, Jr. also claim that such Jews as George Soros control the election vendors
A candidate for Congress in the Cincinnati, Ohio area is running a radio spot that says TV networks are controlled by “billionaire Communist Jews” and that “anti-American” Jews control the computer election vendors, and thus close elections.
The commercials for Jim Condit, Jr. were aired on two local Cincinnati AM radio stations, WLW and WKRC, beginning on Thursday morning, days after the attack on a Pittsburgh synagogue that left 11 worshipers dead.
“These massive Trump crowds are the real polls. Not the fake lying polls put out by the big TV networks all controlled by billionaire Communist Jews. These same anti-American Communist Jews like George Soros also direct the three computer election vendors, which have connived their way into counting 95 percent plus of our votes on their secret computer programs, with no effective checks and balances,” the one-minute ad said, in part. “They fix close elections if they think they can get away with it.”
The ad ran nine times on November 1 and was scheduled to run 26 times through Saturday.
If you’re offended by the Jim Condit, Jr. anti-Jewish political ad, blame your government; we can’t pick and choose which political ads to run. He’s on the ballot, therefore we are powerless.
It’s not our decision. We could lose our license if we don’t give him airtime.

The stations’ program manager, Scott Reinhart, told the Cincinnati Enquirer that federal law prohibits the stations from refusing candidates’ ad time, even if the ad is racist or anti-Semitic.
Condit, 65, is on the ballot under the Green Party ticket, but the Green Party does not support him. He faces Republican incumbent Brad Wenstrup on Tuesday.
Condit reportedly has previously denounced “Zionist” control of world politics and alleged that Jews played a role in the 9/11 attacks.
“Condit promotes anti-Semitic and anti-Zionist conspiracy theories. He believes the Federal Reserve Bank is engineering a New World Order,” according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, a watchdog that monitors extremism.
“Condit in 2007 said he believed that ‘Zionists’ had successfully infiltrated the Vatican II Catholic reform conferences in the 1960s intent on ‘bending the doctrines of the Catholic Church to accord with the demands of the Zionist interests.’ Condit once stated that a ‘Phase II’ of the Sept. 11 attacks, intended to benefit the Israeli government, was imminent,” according to the organization.
