Wisconsin Truth PAC — a backer of U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) — added another $1,400,000 to its independent expenditures in an ad targeting Lt. Governor Mandela Barnes, the Democratic nominee

The new buy instead opposes Lt. Governor Mandela Barnes, the Democratic nominee, and links Barnes to three members of “The Squad,” a left-wing group of congressional representatives. The ad also implies that Barnes supports “amnesty for drug traffickers” and “radical ideas funded by the taxpayers.”

In total, the group has spent $10,700,000 in 2022, although all buys until now have been in support of Johnson. The group has received $6,500,000 from billionaire Diane Hendricks and a combined $3,500,000 from Liz and Dick Uihlein.
