Friends,

This is pretty wild, but it’s on thousands of people’s TV screens right now.

In his very first television ad, my opponent claims that I — a veteran who enlisted after 9/11, served in Afghanistan, still serves as a Major in the National Guard and has drill this weekend — am a supporter of domestic terrorism.

The connection he alleges is that the American Rescue Plan included stimulus checks, one of which went to the Boston Marathon bomber — which is true, although it was immediately confiscated by the federal government and sent to the victims of the attack.

I wasn’t in Congress and didn’t vote on that bill, but he doesn’t mention that.

On that basis, my opponent is going to spend the next four weeks running an ad that has my face next to the Boston bomber’s and telling people I am “giving your money to terrorists.”

The ad was immediately fact checked by the Charlotte Observer in this article [[link removed]] — but that isn’t particularly helpful these days, as we all know.

We are still in the lead, but this attack means we have to adjust our television budget to make sure people are hearing directly from me.

Yes, this attack is completely over-the-top in a way many people will outright dismiss — but some people in this district have literally never heard of me and for all they know there’s something here. We can’t pretend this won’t make an impact.

Weeks ago, we set up our Nonsense Defense Fund. It was made for exactly this moment. We’ve got a good bit raised already — we’re about halfway there. If you want us to be able to fight back, I hope you’ll chip in here.

We all deserve better politics than this.

Republicans, Democrats, Independents — we all deserve better.

Onward,
Jeff
