A new ad hitting airwaves in Pennsylvania is hammering Democrat U.S. Senate nominee — and current Lt. Governor — John Fetterman for an incident that happened in 2013 when the then-mayor of Braddock held a black jogger at gunpoint until police arrived after apparently falsely assuming the man was involved in a crime.
The ad includes clips of an interview with the jogger-turned-victim along with quotes from an unapologetic Fetterman on how he "may have" broken the law when he pointed his shotgun at the man's chest.
As NBC News reported succinctly, the latest ad in the battleground state is one of Democrats' worst nightmares in the Keystone State as the midterm primary season wraps up and all eyes turn to November's general election in which the balance of power in Congress will be decided:
During Pennsylvania’s Senate primary, Black Democrats worried that the GOP would target voters with ads about the time Democrat John Fetterman pulled a gun on a Black jogger he wrongly suspected of a crime.
Now it’s on the air.
In addition to the full 30-second ad now airing — on channels including Black Entertainment Television (BET), Oprah Winfrey Network, MSNBC, and ESPN — thanks to a $50,000 buy from American Leadership Action, there's also a 15-second version being targeted on digital "to reach black voters on their smartphones and social media feeds," NBC News added.
It's not just Pennsylvania's next senator on the ballot in November, either. PA’s Senate race could be decisive in determining the balance of power in Congress, and with it the future of Biden's first term and whether he's able to have any help from Capitol Hill in advancing his agenda.
In addition to Fetterman's past actions, his current fitness for office continues to be a significant question for Keystone State voters.
As Townhall previously reported, even Democrats in PA were upset at the Fetterman campaign's lack of transparency and forthrightness about their candidate's condition after he suffered a stroke just before the primary election.
This week, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Editorial Board ran a piece hitting Fetterman for refusing to debate Republican opponent Mehmet Oz and asking more questions about his ability to represent Pennsylvanians in D.C. if he's elected.

This is good. PA black Dems don’t need to like or vote for Oz. They just need to not like nor vote for Fetterman.
Gald to see Oz upping the ante.
Racist. Bully. Poor reasoning skills. Poor coping skills. Admits he broke the law.
A Democrat.

It’s ba $500,000 ad buy, not $50
If Fetterman is this bad, why did Trump choose Oz over Barrett, claiming she couldn’t win in November.
Over Fetterman????
Something smells, here.
And, it smells like Oprah (Hollywood) pandering.
Or trolling.
THIS is how you fight these communist POSs.
Get right down in the dirt where these bassturds thrive.
Being “nice” and “shaking hands across the aisle” NEVER gets it done.
Just like many other Democrats, Fetterman is a coldhearted racist. Show no mercy on him and expose him for what he is.
Show no mercy. Fetterman needs to be an outcast from society and live the remainder of his life in misery.
The ad is good and it’s made better by the fact Fetterman looks like a skinhead.
SOOO—will Cheney still hold the record for defeat-—or will Fetterman take it from her???
Aint crazy about Oz but holy hell..this skinhead is really a work of art.
Now tie him and pig face Bidet completely together.
This screams KKK all the way! Next run an add where Fetterman pumps the 5 red 12 gauge shells into the chamber. Slowly with the jogger in the backdrop. KKK
"On my left arm I have the zip code 15104. That’s Braddock, Pennsylvania, my home and the community I was honored to serve as mayor for 15 years. My wife Gisele and I are raising our kids here in Braddock, right across the street from Andrew Carnegie’s first steel mill.
On my right arm, I have different dates. These are the dates when people were killed through violence in Braddock while I served as Mayor, starting in 2005. Seven out of nine were gun deaths. I actually have to get one more date added because in June of 2018, there was another tragic loss of life."
It means he's a weirdo.
