There are fake ads being put out by a super PAC
Bringing America’s Future to the Front: Campaigning against Israel and Antisemitism in the Geography of the U.S. Holocaust
Building America’s Future is working on a new ad campaign that will target undecided voters in swing states. Over the past week, the PAC spent over $300,000 on Facebook ads, which are sub-targeted to 822 different audience segments. “Imagine a world where the American Dream has no borders,” reads an ad featuring a photo of dozens of migrants at the US-Mexico border. Another ad says Harris “wasn’t just a supporter of the Green New Deal” and claims she supports “a world without gas-powered vehicles.”
Musk personally distributed the first of these checks at a pro-Trump event in Pennsylvania and hasn’t let the Department of Justice’s warning that the lottery may be illegal — or a recent lawsuit filed by Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner — stop him.
Some Republicans think they can win over Jewish voters in some states by cutting military aid to Israel.
Recent polls from the Jewish Democratic Council of America suggest those numbers are holding steady. But some others, including one from the conservative Manhattan Institute, suggest what the organization’s report characterized as “growing cracks in that support.”
Many Jews live in swing states like Michigan, Arizona and Pennsylvania, as well as small groups, that can make a difference in a close election.
At a Harris campaign event on Monday in the critical state of Pennsylvania, second gentleman Doug Emhoff reiterated the vice president’s commitment to supporting Israel and fighting antisemitism. The anniversary of the deadly mass shooting at a Pittsburgh synagogue is this week, and Emhoff reminded the crowd that he is Jewish.
Emhoff said that when she is president, she’ll stand with Israel and the Jewish community. She will reject the idea that Israel does not have right to exist.
“Kamala Harris has held the line against these extreme voices that spout off antisemitism when discussing this Israel conflict on the far left right now,” Moss said.
Coleman, who is the chairman of the Republican Jewish Coalition, spoke at a country club in suburban Detroit on Monday. The existence of the Jewish state is at risk as well as what happens in America and whether or not we support each other.
Weissman said that the response from the administration was a mediocre one after the attack on Israel. The attack killed 1,200 people in Israel, according to the Israeli government. The Gaza Ministry of Health says at least 43,000 Palestinians have been killed by Israel’s military response.
A report released by the Anti-Defamation League — using an expanded definition of antisemitism to include some anti-Zionist language — found a record number of those types of incidents in the year since the Hamas attacks, including thousands surrounding left-wing anti-Israel demonstrations.
Weissman thinks that those realities could change voting habits among Jewish Americans, who have historically sided overwhelmingly with Democrats.
Weissman has heard the claims that former President Donald Trump has condoned antisemitic rhetoric. But she thinks his words are sometimes taken out of context. She likes his decision to move the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem.
RJC CEO Matt Brooks says it’s the organization’s largest investment in a campaign ever, in part because he sees this year as a likely “inflection point” for Jewish voters.
