Ironic how the PAC through which this money is being funneled is called No Going Back when the GOP is determined to undo decades of social progress. Then again, this is the Republican Party we're talking about here. It doesn't have to make sense.

It has been shown, through the results of recent political outcomes, that money isn't the main factor. People are wise to trump's lies, and those of the republican party, when it comes to the claims they make in their advertising. Let them spend their money in ads...it would be more productive if they sent the money to the voters, a thing they always promise and never do.

Those recently elected in spite of being outspent, such as Mayor Mamdani, are providing what they promised to citizens. That goes a lot farther than the lies the R's are spending so much money broadcasting.

I sure hope you’re right.

If all of the D candidates have to keep spending on defense ads, there goes their message. What strategy do they have instead? Dems have some pretty sexy surrogates who are pounding the pavement and ripping up the cornfields to get the message to rural voters whose main source of information is Fox and X. The billboards must be simple and personal:

If you enjoy being lied to;

if you like being treated with disrespect and

if you want to vote for the Epstein Class,

Vote Republican.

Thanks for this information, Judd. Are you able to see ad reserves by Musk as well? And perhaps add together the totals from Musk and MAGA? I'm in NH and Chris Papas just announced Musk pouring money in against him, too.

“This is false.” “This isn’t true.” No news 📰 it’s normalized behavior now. And yes, there are people who will believe it if they see it a few times on 📺

Worried that NH could backslide to that snake oil salesman Sununu…

Hope for the best. Prepare for the worst. These ads have worked for Republicans for 50 years. Democracy needs nothing short of a miracle.

Thanks for the info-boy do we ever need to get big money out of politics.

Those people who make the false ads know that they are lies. Seems to me, that's an actionable offense; libel perhaps? There ought to be penalties, beginning with public retractions and including in-kind donations to the offended party.
