Racist & Antisemitic Advertisements from House GOP Campaign Arm
The day after the Pittsburgh shooting, and one week after a bomb sent to George Soros was intercepted, then-NRCC Chairman Rep. Steve Stiver (R-OH) defended an antisemitic advertisement that depicted a Jewish Congressional candidate surrounded by piles of cash and accused Soros of bankrolling “left-wing mobs paid to riot in the street.” When asked if he thought it had anything to do with violence against Soros, (who the ad accused of funding violence), he responded, “It’s a factual ad. It has nothing to do with calling for violence.”
