Republican Sen. David Perdue of Georgia has removed a campaign ad that enlarged the nose of his Democratic opponent, Jon Ossoff, who is Jewish.

Republican Sen. David Perdue of Georgia has taken down a digital campaign ad featuring a manipulated picture of hisBefore being removed, the Facebook ad showed grainy pictures of Ossoff and Sen. Charles Schumer of New York, who is also Jewish, above a banner reading “DEMOCRATS ARE TRYING TO BUY GEORGIA! HELP DAVID PERDUE FIGHT BACK.”

The news outlet the Forward first reported that the image had been manipulated to make Ossoff’s nose appear larger than in the original photo. A spokeswoman for Perdue said in a statement Monday that the image has been removed from Facebook, calling it an “unintentional error” by an outside vendor, without naming the vendor.“Anybody who implies that this was anything other than an inadvertent error is intentionally misrepresenting Senator Perdue’s strong and consistent record of standing firmly against anti-Semitism and all forms of hate,” the spokeswoman said.

I would say I’m shocked and appalled that a GOP senator had the nerve to release an Anti-Semitic ad and not expect backlash, but that would be a lie.

Siri, what does anti Semitic political advertising look like?

Analysis | Joe Biden’s worst campaign moment, revisitedA pro-GOP group is running a campaign ad that accurately reprises a campaign moment that helped end Biden's first run for the presidency more than three decades ago. As a subscriber, this saddens me. WaPo, if you help to get the monster reelected, just know...he'll come after the free press next. And if you think that can't happen here, you have not been paying attention. And the purpose of smearing the only person standing between us and annihilation is? Why?

Mnuchin says GOP coronavirus relief package will be released MondayGOP leaders had previously hoped to release the package on Thursday but delayed the release after the Trump administration requested additional time to review the bill, according to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. The public may never know the identity of more than 80% of the nearly 5 million beneficiaries to date because the administration has refused to release details on loans under $150,000. That secrecy spurred a lawsuit by news organizations including the Associated Press. Mitch McConnell needs more time to try and squeeze some money in for some of his $$buddies$$. I guess they had to delay the package because deadbeat Donald was busy playing golf with ex football players. He has more important things to do than save the economy or keep the trump virus out of America. Two things he failed to do.
