A California-based group with ties to Democrats is making waves in a Pennsylvania congressional primary by supporting a Republican challenger against the Republican incumbent. True Patriots PA, a liberal group associated with California Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell, has sent out mailers to Pennsylvania voters criticizing GOP Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick and suggesting he is not conservative enough. The mailers aim to boost Fitzpatrick's primary opponent, Mark Houck, by framing Fitzpatrick as a 'RINO' (Republican in name only) and implying he does not align with the values of former President Trump's supporters.
The mailers, which feature images of Fitzpatrick photoshopped onto a rhinoceros body, claim that Fitzpatrick has aligned himself closely with Democrats, including Vice President Kamala Harris. True Patriots PA reportedly spent around $26,000 on these mailers, with Meagan Olson listed as the treasurer for both the group and the Swalwell campaign.
