The Republican Jewish Coalition Victory Fund is out with two new ads in Pennsylvania's Senate race targeting Democratic nominee John Fetterman over a 2013 incident where he pulled a firearm on an unarmed Black jogger.

The ads feature two Black voters discussing the incident.

"My message to Black voters: do your homework about John Fetterman," one woman says in the first ad.

"He didn't even apologize and now he wants our vote?" she adds.

The ad is a reminder of a 2013 incident that occurred when Fetterman was mayor of Braddock, Pennsylvania. After hearing shots fired outside of his home, Fetterman used his shotgun to stop an unarmed man and detain him until police arrived.

Police found the man to be unarmed and wearing running clothes and headphones.

The incident has caused a wedge between some Black Democrats in Pennsylvania and Fetterman. It's been brought up in other ads attacking Fetterman earlier this year, too.

In the second RJC ad, another Black voter tells viewers, "Now this guy's running for Senate -- you can't make that s--- up."

He is damn lucky that the jogger didn’t charge him like the one down in Georgia did when the shot gun went off.

Jewish Republican Group Releases $1.5 Million in Ads Slamming John Fetterman

The man added, “Now this guy’s running for Senate. You can’t make that #### up. He ought to be in jail. Why did John Fetterman see a Black man and do that? He knows why. And our community does too.”

Silly goose. Everyone knows that Democrats never apologize for anything. Instead they’ll either try to redirect the blame or they’ll just ignore the situation. The media will cover for them either way.

Great ad, though!

Keep pounding him on his work on the Parole board releasing murderers into the public. With his background as a lifelong slacker, I have no clue why this race is competitive. The dude is a joke and apparently, so too, is the PA electorate for keeping him competitive

When someone pulls a shotgun at you at point blank range, whom tried to run you over with a truck, you don’t have many options at that point.

Just show a 30 second commercial slowly zooming in to the massive hump on his neck, fade out with the text “What is he hiding under that hoodie?”

Although, I did note that during the time of The Broad Street Bullies, the Flyers did have a lot of black fans.

chased the black man down with his pickup and a shotgun, EXACTLY like what those guys did recently that wound up killing the innocent black jogger and they got LIFE in prison!

An orange juice can can be competitive. Because we are dealing with a Democrat Party hate this country and that is full of dirty tricks and it involves the media. Oz had a long primary and the race wasn’t called for weeks. Fetterman did not. Oz is up against the media and is up against 60 million in dark money but he clawing his way back and fighting like hell.

Democrats out-register Republicans in PA. Most Democrats are mindless and would vote for Hitler if he ran on the Democrat ticket.

Oz's hope is in swaying PA Independents and having low Democrat turnout.
