A group previously backed by tech billionaire Elon Musk is running an advertisement pressuring senators to support President-elect Trump’s pick for Defense secretary, Pete Hegseth.
The ad, from conservative group Building America’s Future, is set to air on national television and will have a particular focus on Iowa via digital platforms. It was first reported by the Daily Caller.
“America needs a Defense secretary who knows what it means to fight and understands the price of freedom,” a voiceover says in the ad posted Friday to social platform X.
The ad, which is costing Building America’s Future $500,000, features photos and a video clip of Hegseth, and calls him “a patriot, a decorated combat veteran and a warrior who will stop at nothing to keep America safe.” It ends with a push from the narrator to contact “your senator today and urge them to confirm Pete Hegseth for secretary of Defense.”

If you're a GOP senator you'd do well to adhere to his wishes.
I know some Freepers don't like the idea of someone like this bankrolling everything and I dont know how long it'll last but I think he's a benign force (Thank heavens).
It's not like he's Gates or Soros level-type evil.
“pressuring” —- LOL
Good for Elon. Looks like it worked with Jodi.
It’s working, bases on how the whorebag Ernst has changed her tune.
Yeah she was wavering.
Now if we can just keep Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowsky on the leash...
But it is hard to convert Assistant Democrats.
Musk’s massive PA give-away was open to every voter
The RATS have been doing this for 30 years.
It took Musk joining the team to finally make it happen for the GOP
And this is why I did not want Hogan to win in Maryland. A male addition to the weak sisters of the Senate, Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins, Joni Ernst, and Lindsey Graham.
No thanks.
Would they rather have the lobbyist bankrolling things?
We really need him, Charlie Kirk, Scott Presler, etc. workin together on a plan to upgrade the quality of candidates running for Congress.
‘xactly. The game has changed.
He’s just what our side needed.
Wow the Alt Left clowns at “The Hill” whining because someone is running their standard play against them.
Time to run some ads in Linda Graham’s South Carolina too.
Must get rid of Rank Choice voting in Alaska too.
The first thing the senators need to ask of them selves is what the hell do they know about defense security besides how to make a buck off it.
Bitch is mad that she wasn’t picked for DOD - she better be very careful as she’s heading in Liz Cheney territory.
