DNC launches ad blitz against swing Republicans
The Democratic National Committee on Wednesday launched a modest, five‑figure digital ad campaign accusing President Trump of 'attacks on free speech' and targeting four vulnerable House Republicans — Reps. Rob Wittman (VA), Jen Kiggans (VA), Brian Fitzpatrick (PA) and Tom Kean Jr. (NJ). The spots will run on conservative and independent outlets, including the podcasts of Joe Rogan and Ben Shapiro, and were timed to respond to ABC's brief suspension and subsequent reinstatement of Jimmy Kimmel amid FCC threats and affiliate preemptions.
