Trump personally selects taxpayer-funded ads ahead of midterms; more to come

The ads, produced inside the White House, have drawn bipartisan pushback over their seemingly partisan nature. This marks an escalation in the use of taxpayer resources for political messaging, though the full scope and content of the ads remain unclear.
