House conservatives unleash multimillion-dollar midterm blitz against Dem 'socialist' insurgency

Translate

FIRST ON FOX: The House Freedom Caucus' campaign arm is opening its war chest this week and pouring millions of dollars into Republicans' fight against the budding socialist insurgency on the left.

The Freedom Caucus Fund is blitzing the airwaves with $6 million worth of political advertising in six races across the country, Fox News Digital is learning first.

"Each of their opponents are far-left, socialist Democrats who support amnesty for illegal aliens, wide open borders, repealing the Trump tax cuts to fund welfare handouts for noncitizens, men in women's sports, and their top priority, impeaching President Trump," a spokesperson for the Freedom Caucus Fund told Fox News Digital. "With a little over 40 days until the November 3 election, thanks to this Freedom Caucus Fund ad campaign, voters in these districts will find out just how crazy these Democrats are."

The electoral engines driving the House GOP's rightmost flank have been working overtime this midterm season to promote its chosen candidates in both primary and general elections.

If the strategy pays off, the House Freedom Caucus could play a big role in shaping what the Republicans' agenda will look like for the latter half of President Donald Trump's final term.

OUTGOING REP CHIP ROY SAYS THE GOP HAS ALREADY 'DELIVERED SIGNIFICANTLY,' BUT MUST 'FINISH THE JOB'

The investment could also serve to boost the Freedom Caucus' numbers in the 120th Congress, with many of its key players not returning next year.

Marquee names like Reps. Chip Roy, R-Texas, Byron Donalds, R-Fla., and Ralph Norman, R-S.C., are leaving the House come January. Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., who previously served as the group's chairman, is also retiring to run for governor of Arizona.

EX-HOUSE FREEDOM CAUCUS CHAIR SAYS GOP ISN'T 'A CONSERVATIVE PARTY ANYMORE,' BUT DEMOCRATS ARE 'WORSE'

The ad buy is focused on incumbent Reps. Scott Perry, R-Pa., Nick Begich, R-Alaska, Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., and Eli Crane, R-Ariz. It is also bolstering candidates Brandon Herrera, R-Texas, Mike Beltran, R-Fla., and David Flippo, R-Nev.

Perry, Begich, and Herrera are all running in some of the tightest races across the country this November.

REPORTER'S NOTEBOOK: HOUSE CONTROL COULD HINGE ON WHETHER THE OLD POLITICAL RULES STILL APPLY

It comes as Republicans are fighting an uphill nationwide battle to keep control of the House and Senate in November.

But Democrats' own intraparty civil war could give the GOP the upper hand they otherwise would not have had. A slew of socialist primary victories in both blue and swing districts have forced establishment Democrats to reckon with the far-left's growing influence in the party.

SOCIALIST VICTORIES SHOW DEMS' DESCENT DOWN 'DEADLY PATH OF COMMUNISM,' JOHNSON WARNS

Republicans have argued that the socialist insurgency is shifting the Democratic Party further left than the majority of Americans are right now, seeking to paint the election as a referendum on "common sense versus crazy."

Democrats, meanwhile, have accused Republicans of doing nothing to help Americans lower the high cost of living while kowtowing to Trump's partisan whims.
