A Democratic advocacy group is targeting 10 House Republicans over the looming government shutdown with negative TV ads, even as Democrats aim to persuade some to work with them to avert it.
Courage for America, a “dark money” group that isn’t required to disclose its donors, started airing ads in local markets Thursday that features a clip of Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene saying a shutdown is “no threat” and calls the targeted members “MAGA extremists,” co-opting a phrase favored by Donald Trump supporters.
