A new $4 million ad campaign by a super PAC supporting Pennsylvania Republican senate candidate David McCormick blamed President Joe Biden for the southern border crisis.
The ad, titled "Dangerous," is from Keystone Renewal PAC and talks about terrorists, drug dealers, and human traffickers who enter the country illegally and then disappear.
"That's Joe Biden's open border," the ad says. "Combat veteran Dave McCormick knows how to keep us safe, close the border, add border patrol and build the wall."
"This is a time where we need leaders who will stand up and fight for our country," McCormick said to close the ad.
The commercial will run in the Harrisburg, Johnstown, Pittsburgh, and Wilkes-Barre media markets, the Washington Examiner reported.
McCormick is trying to unseat Bob Casey, who is running for a fourth term. McCormick ran for Senate in 2022 but lost the Republican primary to Dr. Mehmet Oz.
"Casey is a puppet of the radical Biden regime and is directly to blame for our porous border," Kaelan Dorr, a spokesman for Keystone Renewal PAC, told the Washington Examiner. "Pennsylvanians need representation in the Senate that will build the wall, close our border, and actually support the brave men and women protecting our country. They need Dave McCormick."
Biden recently signed an executive order that would shut down asylum requests to the U.S.-Mexico border once the number of daily encounters hits 2,500 between ports of entry, with the border reopening once that number declines to 1,500.
The Bob Casey campaign did not respond to a request for comment.
