Republicans Allegedly Used Fake Harris Ads to Target Arab Voters in Michigan
A Republican-linked political action committee (PAC) is employing a divisive tactic by targeting Arab American and Jewish American voters in key swing states with contradictory messages about Vice President Kamala Harris’s stance on Israel. This PAC, known as FC PAC, has been funded by a dark money group with ties to former President Trump, and aims to stoke divisions and discourage voters from supporting a particular candidate. The advertisements, often mimicking the style of campaign materials, present Harris as both pro-Israel and pro-Palestine depending on the target audience. Experts warn that this manipulative strategy, while alarming, may be effective due to widespread frustration among Arab Americans over Democratic support for Israel, particularly in light of recent conflicts in Gaza and Lebanon.
