New ad ties vulnerable Dem senator to Biden's 'failing' record ahead of CNN Presidential Debate
FIRST ON FOX: Ohio GOP Senate candidate Bernie Moreno released an ad on the morning of Thursday’s CNN Presidential Debate linking his vulnerable Democrat opponent’s policies to those of President Biden that will be featured on stage in Atlanta.
“Sherrod Brown voted with Biden 99% of the time,” the Moreno ad says as two men ride a tandem bicycle with the license plate JB SB, the initials of Ohio Democratic Gov. Sherrod Brown and President Biden, in Washington, D.C.
“Sherrod Brown & Biden combined 100 years in office,” the new ad says. “Sherrod Brown & Biden oppose a border wall.”
The ad also says the pair “support amnesty for illegals” and that “prices are up 20%” in the Brown and Biden economy.

“Don’t let extreme liberals Sherrod Brown and Joe Biden take America for a ride,” the ad says at the close before Brown and Biden crash their bicycle.
The Moreno campaign also unveiled JustLikeBiden.com on Thursday, where information on the similarities between Biden and Brown’s policies can be found underneath a banner that reads, “Sherrod Brown is always ridin’ with Biden.”

“Sherrod Brown said it best: his politics are not much different than Joe Biden’s,” Moreno Communications Director Reagan McCarthy told Fox News Digital in a statement.
“Brown votes with Biden almost 100% of the time and has helped create the invasion at our southern border, a dismal economy with record-high inflation, and a war on American energy. The Biden-Brown agenda is failing Ohio and Ohioans will retire them both in November.”

Fox News Digital reached out to the Brown campaign for comment but did not receive a response.
Brown’s race against Moreno in November will be one of the most closely watched in the country. Many view it as one of the best opportunities Republicans have to take back control of the Senate, which Democrats currently hold by a 51-49 margin.
The Cook Political Report ranks the Senate race in Ohio as a “toss up.”

Detroit getting pro women’s hockey team? What we know about the rumors
What is the PWHL playoff format?
USAT’s Sam Cardona-Norberg breaks down all the rules you need to know for the start of the 2026 PWHL Playoffs.
Sports Seriously
Is a professional women’s hockey team coming to Detroit?
The answer is not fully clear yet, but the buzz for Hockeytown to get a Professional Women’s Hockey League (PWHL) team very soon is real.
Denise Ilitch, who’s family owns the Detroit Red Wings, the Tigers and Little Caesars Arena (her brother Christopher Ilitch runs the day-to-day operations), predicted the PWHL was coming to Detroit earlier this year.
“I believe we’ll be getting a team in Detroit soon, which really excites me,” Ilitch said on her “Denise Ilitch Show” podcast on March 31.
Ilitch also serves on the Board of Regents at the University of Michigan and has been a strong advocate for a U-M women’s hockey team in recent years.
Media reports from the New York Times and The Hockey News also indicate that Detroit may be next in line for an expansion team, after the league added two teams last month in Seattle and Vancouver. The league is looking to 2-4 teams by 2026-27.
The PWHL has made tour stops to Detroit four times in the last three years and some of the best women’s hockey players in the nation are from Michigan, including Megan Keller, who was the hero for Team USA women’s hockey at the 2026 Winter Olympics.
During the 2023-24 season, 13,736 hockey fans set an attendance record at the time for a professional women’s hockey game in the United States.
The PWHL, which celebrated its first season in 2023-24, has gained extra interest since the 2026 Winter Olympics.
If Detroit got a PWHL team, some fans hope that could push the University of Michigan and Michigan State University to eventually add Division I women’s hockey programs.
The league’s last appearance in Detroit on March 28, 2026, featured a 3-1 Montreal Victoire win over the New York Sirens in front of 15,938 fans at Little Caesars Arena.
The Free Press reached out to officials with the city of Detroit, but they did not immediately provide comment.
