America First Policies, a group best known for employing an open racist as a key staffer, will run digital and TV ads targeting Democrats in three red states: Sen. Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota, Sen. Claire McCaskill of Missouri, and Sen. Doug Jones of Alabama, according to Politico Playbook, the nation’s premier source for news that pleases elites. Thanks to our nation’s pathetic disclosure laws, 501(c)(4)s like America First are not required to disclose their donors, so we’ll likely never know who funded these efforts.
Playbook also reported that the ads “were going to go up in Indiana, but Joe Donnelly announced he would vote for Haspel’s nomination.” Sometimes, you don’t even have to run ads to get cowardly Democrats to do what you want!
