AMAC Exclusive – By Seamus Brennan

schumerIn an upstate New York TV blitz alleging that the media is “the most powerful and corrupt institution in America” seeking to “smear” GOP candidates and protect their own “chosen candidates,” a conservative Super PAC is asking voters to “send a message to the media bosses who are corrupting American journalism and give them a “miserable election night” by defeating Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY).

In addition to focusing on Schumer as President Joe Biden’s “chief enabler”—complete with news footage of various Biden foreign and domestic policy fiascos—the strikingly vivid two-minute spot features an image of the far-left Democratic representatives known as the “Squad,” led by Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (D-NY), and charges: “Schumer made a corrupt bargain with left-wing extremists to not run a primary against him if he pushed far-left positions.

The ad then lists Schumer’s close ties to radical groups that he has never had to denounce, which seek to defund the police” and “destroy the New York City Police Department.” It also targets Schumer’s “dark money alliance with notorious anti-American billionaire George Soros, who funded all the lawless prosecutors like Alvin Bragg” (a controversial soft-on-crime New York City district attorney). It also ties Schumer to opposition to school reform and parental rights, as well as the destruction of women’s sports and childhood education with “gender lunacy.”


The ad, which launched on Thursday, August 25 on nightly news programs in the Buffalo, Rochester, and Syracuse markets, is set to run through next week.

“Our ad is a template for all Republican candidates because every single Senate Democrat—Mark Kelly(D-AZ), Raphael Warnock (D-GA), Maggie Hassan(D-NH), and Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NM)—agreed to vote with the far-left wing of the party so long as they didn’t have to face a primary,” said George Landrith, Chairman of Frontiers of Freedom Action(FFA), the group who ran the ad.

Any one of them, as the 50th Senator, could have stopped the Biden agendabut they didn’t, because they put the wishes of the far left above the wishes of their constituents. They essentially said, ‘Don’t primary me, and I will vote your way,’” Landrith said.

“Most people in these states still find it hard to believe these Senators became extremists,Landrith continued,but when you explain why they were so frightened of a well-financed primary challenge, they understand.

“The corrupt media’s firestorm of attacks on Republican candidates is coming in the fall, and the only way to stop it is to get ahead of it,” Landrith said, a theme echoed by an ad released by Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) this week, which attracted attention for taking aim at the corruption of the corporate media.

The first minute of the New York ad focuses predominantly on the media for trying to “crush dissent” and hide corruption, after displaying headlines about media scandals and smears—including its handling of the China Virus leak, censorship of the Hunter Biden laptop story, promotion of the Russian collusion hoax, coverup for Hillary Clinton’s email scandals, and refusal to report on Biden’s blackmailing of the Ukrainian government. The ad also lists other political smears, like those against General Michael Flynn, students at Covington Catholic High School, and parents protesting anti-Americanism in their local schools.

The FFA ad goes on to blame the media for electing Joe Biden “by letting him run “from his basement” and “covering up his incompetence and ill health.” The ad also deems him to be “the worst president in modern history,” and features videos of Biden falling up the stairs on Air Force One and taking directions from the Easter Bunny at a White House event with the headline “EASTER BUNNY RUNS WHITE HOUSE EVENT.”

The spot then quickly switches to a photo of Schumer as “Biden’s chief enabler” and shows footage of a gleeful Biden and Schumer at a White House signing event for legislation that the GOP and most economists say will drive inflation higher.

“First, you have the networks and newspapers. Second, you have the left-wing extremists like Chuck Schumer who run the Democratic Party. We are saying they are one and the same entity, Landrith charged.

Our ad changes the false media narrative from the supposed imperfections of GOP candidates to the massive national disadvantage of Democrats. Every single Senate Democrat is imperiled by their Biden identification, and especially by their corrupt bargain with the leftists that have taken over their party,” Landrith said.

Landrith is also optimistic that by focusing on the media’s deliberate one-sidedness—from its partisan coverage of this month’s Mar-a-Lago raid to its habitual protection of Democratic candidates and politicians—the ad could elicit turnout from moderate or independent voters concerned with media corruption and the radicalism of Schumer’s agenda. “It’s very important to control the word ‘extremist,” he said.

Additionally, the ad notes the Biden-Pelosi-Schumer attempt to push a radical takeover of electionsas well as efforts by other Democrats to alter the makeup of the U.S. Supreme Court, U.S. Senate, American citizenship, and the Electoral Collegerepresents a “scorched-earth rule-or-ruin” attack on longstanding American democratic institutions.

“The GOP has never gotten across to the people how those bills would have destroyed the secret ballot, put Department of Justice bureaucrats in charge of our elections, abolished citizenship rights, packed the Supreme Court into irrelevance, radically changed the U.S. Senate, and made a few states the only thing that mattered in presidential elections by abolishing the Electoral College,” said Landrith.

The spot’s release comes nearly two months ahead of the November 8 midterm elections, as Democrats amp up their fight to retain their control of Congress. Though Schumer himself at the moment is not regarded as politically vulnerable going into the fall midterms, FFA notes that some segments of the New York population—particularly upstate New York—might be receptive to attacks on Schumer’s startling record of radicalism. Just as ad campaigns in last fall’s New Jersey gubernatorial race (another deep-blue state) yielded far closer results than initially anticipated, FFA hopes that it can help to replicate the close matchup with this week’s spot.

“New Jersey could have a GOP Governor today if the D.C. establishment wasn’t so cautious,” Landrithstated. “Republicans need to stop playing defense and expand the Senate map.”

As Election Day draws closer and Democrats continue to accelerate their attacks against Republican candidates, FFA’s ad could help to expose Schumer’s radical agenda in a way the mainstream media has failed to do. And should it succeed, FFA’s strategy could prove instrumental in holding Schumer and other far-left politicians across the nation accountable for the first time in recent memory.

Just a couple of comments on the article:

1) The people of New York state are NOT going to consider voting for any Republican to replace Schumer in the Senate. Registered Democrat voters in NY outnumber registered Republican voters by 5 to 1. In the just completed NY primaries, only 8 percent of registered voters even bothered to turn up to vote. Yes, I said 8 percent. Yet another new low voter turnout in a Democrat state that is dying every day, The people that still vote in New York are almost exclusively the hard core leftists chanting for socialism. From their perspective, all these massive spending bills that are being passed by the Democrats and are filled with the most egregious socialist policies designed to trash our country are wonderful. So while the ad you describe might be educational to Republican voters, it will fall flat with the average, brain dead Democrat voter only concerned with what is the next thing the government will give them for “free”.

2) I liked the line towards the end of the article that stated ““New Jersey could have a GOP Governor today if the D.C. establishment wasn’t so cautious,” Landrithstated. “Republicans need to stop playing defense and expand the Senate map.” That advice should also be given to both McConnell and McCarthy, as well as RNC leadership. Nothing is ever won by only playing defense all the time.

Only one way/circumstance that will allow “Shoomer” to get reelected … a rigged voting system. This means he has a good chance to get reelected. Personally, if I were a New Yorke, I wouldn’t vote for him to be in charge of cleaning a latrine … altho his politics seems to fit well with that vocation!!!

The ad has lots of good information, maybe less would be better. People would be more likely to hear it. It goes so fast, no time is given to let the words sink in. It might be more important to focus on the value of truth over the lies. Lies lead to the destruction of our freedom and our nation. Truth leads to a nation that is life giving and hopeful.

I like how the ad called out MSM, even though there is so much outrages, lawlessness that needed to be presented, it went way too fast. It would be good if more focused attention in future ads to each atrocity by the far left be exposed with how each individual citizen of the nation will be harmed, now, and the future, to a point of no return. Moderates and any Democrats with any common sense need to be awaken to how the far left and MSM are hell bent on turning this great nation into a Communist dictatorship, and if they succeed, there is no place to go.

ASIA FOR THE ASIANS, AFRICA FOR THE AFRICANS, WHITE COUNTRIES FOR EVERYBODY!

“Diversity” is a code for “Fewer White People.”

“Diversity is our greatest strength” is a code for

—“White People is our Greatest Weakness.”—

White liberal supporters of “multiculturalism” amount to nothing more than opportunist parasites riding on the back of a social fungus attacking the body politic.

They support White Genocide.

White self-hatred is SICK!!!

How about proofreading an article before you post it! As a longtime member of AMAC, I believe it is important that the articles be written free of typos, etc. Doesn’t anyone proofread the articles?

If an article is going to have an impact, it needs to be professional in appearance as well as content.

The cabal comprised of woke corporations, most media outlets and the Democrat Party presents an obvious target for Republicans. I only wish Republicans could at least unify around an opposition to this obvious unified front. Leading Republicans like Mitch and Mitt just don’t get it. They think there is a middle ground, but there is only the no man’s land of wishful thinking. And if Liz Cheney thinks she can become president because the press loves her, she needs to understand that useful idiots are only valuable until their shelf life expires.

The referred to add is very powerful. It needs to be run often and should act as a template for the talking points by the Republicans to expose the entire ugly and corrupt collusion between the Marxist Democrats and the mainstream media. The hateful, anti-American Democrats are ripe for the picking to have terrible election results.

All I can add to this ad is that all those legally registered voters better come out and vote in person and not allow a mere 8-12% of voters to decide the winner. Make the difference and vote

Schumer is a pig! I don’t how good your memory is when he went from the House to the Senate either “Time” or “Newsweek” quoted him as saying he had a passion to legislate. Something should have gone upside his head then.
Pelosi is basically doing the same thing, what they both forget is the second paragraph of the Declaration of Independence where a long train of subjugations and abuses is discussed but doesn’t define long whether in period time or the length of the list.

Please stop using the term “mainstream media.” The corrupt, vicious, leftist media is so far outside the mainstream that it can’t even SEE mainstream America from their vantage point. And I say that as a former journalist.

I truly hope the Republicans have woke up to the facf that they are usually to late on the uptake. If they dont eliminate the get along go alongs like Cheney we will never get America back. Untill they take this on to win and not get along we never will win. Knowing they will cheat, lie and steal to win we have to start going on the offensive and define the narrative not let them define it for us.

We all know that, as things actually are, many of the most influential and most highly remunerated members of the Bar in every center of wealth, make it their special task to work out bold and ingenious schemes by which their wealthy clients, individual or corporate, can evade the laws which were made to regulate, in the interests of the public, the uses of great wealth. – T. Roosevelt, 1905
After Watergate, to protect the public from the appearance of corruption, The Federal Election Campaign Act abridged the freedoms of speech press and assembly of the regulated class: candidates for Federal Office, political parties, PAC’s and individual citizens.
But the corporate media were exempted because government could not infringe their 1st Amendment rights. This created a “Royal”, “State Approved” press:
52 U.S. Code § 30101 – Definitions (9)(B) The term “expenditure” does not include— (i) any news story, commentary, or editorial distributed through the facilities of any broadcasting station, newspaper, magazine, or other periodical publication, unless such facilities are owned or controlled by any political party, political committee, or candidate; – law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/52/30101
But if candidates and political parties have to pay for time/space in the media, then why are editorials considered to have no value if they are published by corporate media, unless the media is controlled by a political party, political committee, or candidate?
To restore equal rights to citizens, federal candidates, political parties and PACs “We the People” should ask our representatives in the Senate and House to revisit “S. 2416 — 113th Congress: Free All Speech Act of 2014.” GovTrack.us. 2014. June 15, 2022 <govtrack.us/congress/bills/113/s2416
113th CONGRESS
2d Session
S. 2416
IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES
June 3, 2014
Mr. Cruz introduced the following bill; which was read twice and referred to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation
A BILL
To apply laws that restrict the political speech of American citizens to media corporations.
1. Short title
This Act may be cited as the Free All Speech Act of 2014 .
2. Application of laws that restrict the political speech of American citizens to media corporations
(a) In general
Any law that restricts the political speech of American citizens shall apply with equal force to media corporations, such as the New York Times, the American Broadcasting Company (ABC), the National Broadcasting Company (NBC), and the CBS Television Network.
(b) No application to American citizens if application to media corporations found unconstitutional
To the extent that the application of a law to a media corporation under subsection (a) is found unconstitutional, such law shall have no force or effect with respect to American citizens.

Full disclosure: I live in NY. Therefore Schumer is my senator. The policies that democrats have crammed down the throats of NY residents have a lot to do with why people are leaving the state in droves. As a result, NY actually LOST a congressional seat. If there’s any justice in the world, the democrats will lose in NY. They deserve it.
