Ossoff Campaign Cites 'Oversight' for his Failure to Disclose Business Ties to China and Al Jazeera

As Georgia Democrat Jon Ossoff’s ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and Al Jazeera continue to haunt his Senate campaign, a fact-checker claimed that an ad from an outside GOP group highlighting those ties is “misleading.”

The ad points to Ossoff’s business ties to both PCCW, a media company partially owned by the CCP, and Al Jazeera, which has been deemed a “mouthpiece for terrorists.” Ossoff’s business dealings with Al Jazeera also caused trouble for his 2017 congressional bid. The ad also points out Ossoff’s initial failure to disclose these ties in his filings with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) until July, after the Democrats’ Senate primary. His failure to disclose ties to the media company partially owned by the Chinese government came amidst the pandemic that originated from China.

The fact-check pushed Ossoff’s campaign on this, and a spokesperson cited an "oversight" that is to blame for Ossoff's failure to disclose these ties in a timely manner

“Overlooked”, my ass.

That’s like Bill Clinton saying he didn’t remember any of those blow jobs Monica gave him.

Ossoff is a retread....lost his earlier stab at public office......and he’s still not coming clean with the voters.

Back then, one of the Congressional Black Caucus brainiacs said Ossoff was “another JFK.”

Ossoff went all-in, even though he’s not Irish (he’s Jewish; keeping that from voters, as well; knows identity politics in GA is a no-go.)
<><> Ossoff began playing touch football with his cousins,
<><> kept saying he lived in a “compound,”
<><> said he loved ocean-sailing (in his land-locked Georgia hometown),
<><> said his girlfriend’s name was “Jackie,”
<><> went to a Georgia Tearoom and ordered Boston Clam Chowder.

Every decent Southerner orders Georgia’s famously delicious Peach Cobbler.

Democrat Jon Ossoff’s ties to (A) the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), and,
(B) to terrorist Al Jazeera, continue to haunt his Georgia US Senate campaign.

One can understand why he'd want to hide his ties to these frightening groups from Georgia voters.

Just makes you wonder what else he's hiding.

Assuming Biden won Georgia, why then would they have any problems with Ossoff’s China Connections?

When a Dem lies and is caught, it’s called an oversight!

The ad is “misleading” because it tells the truth.
