Former GOP congressman says he is leaving the party: ‘It has become a cult’ MORE (R-Texas) and other Republicans who objected to the outcome of the 2020 election as the country struggled with the fallout from the violent riots last week in the Capitol.

The ad campaign is the result of a six-figure buyout that airs on CNN Monday and Tuesday and Fox News Tuesday, according to the details first shared with The Hill. It will also be broadcast on the Missouri and Texas channels across the country on Tuesday. The PAC will also announce the ads on MSNBC next week.

According to the ad, Hawley, Cruz and others “incited” the mob of last week by objecting to the outcome of the election college and urging supporters to fight against the certification of elected president.

‘These traitors who incited domestic terrorism at our Capitol must be held accountable for their uprising. We will not stop until they are charged with their crime and expelled from public life. ”

The ad points to the latest attack on Hawley and Cruz, which led to Senate efforts to object to the outcome of the presidential election in major warring states.

Critics of the legislature blame them in part for the riot because they reflect concerns about widespread electoral fraud.

The chaos of last week led to the deaths of five people, including a Capitol police officer and a riot that was shot by another officer while trying to break through a window in the building.

Several Democrats have demanded that the two senators resign, while some Republicans reprimand them for their objections.

The reprimands from outside groups have also increased, with a number of prominent organizations promising to withhold donations from lawmakers who objected to the results. Simon & Schuster announced last week that they were going to cancel the publication of Hawley’s forthcoming book, and a hotel announced on Saturday that it was canceling a fundraiser it would present to the senator in Missouri.

Hawley and Cruz said they had objected to addressing their voters’ concerns about the election fraud repeated by the president and his allies.

Federal and state election officials said at various times after the November election that there was no substantial evidence of widespread voter fraud, including former Attorney General Bill Barr.
