The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) is investing an additional $ 100,000 in its effort to link vulnerable Republicans to conspiracy theory QAnon and MP Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), Spanish ads targeting three members of the Republican Party Chamber in competitive districts.
The ad purchase represents the DCCC’s first six-digit Spanish ad purchase in the 2022 cycle and is based on the $ 550,000 in ads launched last week accusing eight Republicans of aligning themselves with the marginal elements of the party who were involved in the invasion of the US Capitol on January 6.
Ads will run in districts represented by Reps. Mike Garcia (R-Calif.), David Valadao

“QAnon, a conspiracy theory born online, took over the Republican Party, sent QAnon followers like Marjorie Taylor Greene to Congress and with Donald Trump

Congressman David Valadao should have stayed with us. David Valadao got Q, not you. “
Democrats stripped Greene of his duties on the committee last week after earlier comments surfaced about his conspiracy theories. Less than a dozen Republicans joined them in the vote to remove Greene from the committees.
The Republican Party’s campaign arm responded, noting that none of the lawmakers targeted in the Spanish ads support Qanon’s conspiracy theory.
Salazar voted to remove Greene from his committee assignments and Valadão voted to accuse Trump for his role in inciting the crowd that attacked the Capitol.
“House Democrats are so desperate that they are burning donor money by selling a disinformation campaign that has been found to be false by various media outlets,” said NRCC spokeswoman Torunn Sinclar. “Democrats’ lies in the House will not change the reality that Republicans won 28 of the 29 most competitive House contests in 2020, no Republican House candidate lost and Republicans are on their way to winning even more seats in 2022.”
Democrats believe that tying the entire Republican Party to QAnon and Greene will be a powerful midterm issue that will further harm Republicans with the suburban voters who gravitated away from the party during the Trump years.
“Washington Republicans made their choice – they chose to give in to the murderous QAnon crowd that took over their party,” DCCC President Sean Patrick Maloney (DN.Y.). said.
“Washington Republicans are trying to do both – refusing to hold those responsible for the Capitol attack accountable, offering nothing but empty words after years of exaggerated lies and conspiracy theories. Voters understand the danger of conspiracy theorists and violent white supremacists, but instead of rejecting extremism in their party, Republicans have embraced them. There is no middle ground, but the actions of Washington Republicans have made one thing clear – no American will be safe from the QAnon mafia if Washington Republicans are in power. “
The previous DCCC announcement targeted eight House Republicans, including Salazar and Garcia, as well as the minority leader Kevin McCarthy
