Anti-Trump Republicans launch ad campaign in North Carolina and Arizona

A new ad by anti-Trump Republicans featuring regretful Trump voters is targeting disaffected GOP voters in North Carolina and Arizona, swing states the president won in 2016 and where his troubles are mounting.

Fifteen voters who supported President Trump in 2016 share first-person testimonials in the ad, sponsored by the group Republican Voters Against Trump, about why they no longer plan to support him. "Donald Trump has broken my faith in the Republican Party," says a man identified as Paul, a voter from Tennessee. "I'll take anybody over him," Connor from Maine says. "It's okay to change your mind," the ad concludes.

Trump Casts Wide TV-Ad Net to Shore Up Support - WSJ

President Trump's re-election campaign is advertising in three states he easily won in 2016, as well as two others that appear tougher for him to capture, as polls suggest he may have a narrower path to the White House than four years ago.

Ad dollars are flowing into Iowa, Ohio and Georgia—states he won by 5 percentage points or more—as Mr. Trump trails presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden in most battleground-state and national polling and navigates a pandemic and race-relations debate.

Providence, Humana back ad campaign urging patients to stop 'medical distancing' |

Surveys show, however, that people are wary of returning to the doctor's office, either because they worry about exposure to the novel coronavirus or have lost coverage to help pay for care.

Public health experts are also beginning to fear vaccinations may be avoided, which could cause trouble with the upcoming flu season.

The ad campaign stresses that providers have guidelines in place to keep patients safe, such as isolation of those suspected of having COVID-19 and increased virtual options.

Critics denounce WE Charity campaign-style ad for Justin Trudeau amid PM's scandal over charity

A 2017 ad from WE Charity that appears to promote Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his Liberal government is being highlighted by critics this week as Trudeau faces an ethics investigation over handing a $900-million sole-source contract to the group, which has paid members of his family hundreds of thousands of dollars in speaking fees.

The video — a campaign-style production that doubles as a promo for the charity — was produced by Door Knocker Media, a Toronto production company, and the original video, on VIMEO, is listed as having been made for the client, WE Charity.

Facebook Said to Consider Banning Political Ads - The New York Times

But the issue has come to the forefront in recent weeks, with the November election looming and as Facebook grapples with intensifying scrutiny over content posted to its platform. The core of the debate is whether banning political ads would help or harm "giving users a voice," said the people with knowledge of the discussions. Stopping ads could stifle speech for some groups, they said, though allowing political ads to run could also allow more misinformation that could disenfranchise

If a ban on political ads were to happen, it would be a reversal for Facebook and its chief executive, Mark Zuckerberg. The social network has long allowed politicians and political parties to run ads across its network virtually unchecked, even if those ads contained falsehoods or other misinformation.

Susan Collins attack at about pharmaceutical votes | newscentermaine.com

NEWS CENTER Maine found this statement is mostly true. It's the exact language that makes it a bit murky. That's because it is illegal for corporations to donate directly to federal campaigns, which is what the ad technically claims.

However, Collins has received money from those industries through corporate PAC and individual contributions. 

According to the Center for Responsive Politics, in her entire career as a Senator, Susan Collins was given more than $440,000 from the pharmaceutical sector and more than $1.17 million from the insurance sector.

Several national political organizations are spending millions on advertising campaigns aimed at convincing Michigan Republicans to turn against President Donald Trump over his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.

A series of polls taken since March have found a majority of surveyed Michigan voters have a negative opinion of Trump's handling of the public health crisis. A New York Times/Siena College poll released last week found 59% of Michigan respondents disapprove of Trump's response, while 37% felt the president treated Michigan worse than other states throughout the pandemic.
