Powerful.

A new ad from Republicans for the Rule of Law sends a powerful message to the GOP: "Your silence is deafening."

The soundless 30-second spot calls out Republican congressmen Benjamin Sasse, Lindsey Graham, Ted Cruz, John Kennedy, and Tim Scott for their silence in the wake of the Mueller report, saying "Our president attempted to obstruct justice. Stand up for the rule of law."


The Republican Rule of Law is a project from Defending Democracy Together, an advocacy organization "dedicated to defending America’s democratic norms, values, and institutions and fighting for consistent Conservative principles like rule of law, free trade, and expanding legal immigration." Bill Kristol, who debuted the Silence ad, is one of the organization's directors.

This isn't the first time the Republicans for the Rule of Law has posted a controversial ad. In November, they ran a "Protect Mueller" spot on the notoriously Trump-friendly Fox & Friends. Last week they purchased ad space on Fox & Friends to run a spot questioning Trump's hyperbolic "full exoneration" statements.

The Republicans for the Rule of Law encourages people to read the Mueller report and be informed about the actual conclusions.

Reps. Sasse, Graham, Cruz, Kennedy, and Scott: what have you got to say? We're listening.

Ted Cruz Accidentally Rips Himself With Epic Self-Own While Attempting To Attack AOC In Viral Clip

Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz accidentally told on himself while trying to insult New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez during a Fox News interview on Monday for going from working as a bartender to being a federal government employee—what he called a "parasite."

Democrats Waste No Time Turning Trump's Tone-Deaf Response To Question About Americans' 'Financial Situation' Amid Iran War Into An Ad

Republicans have faced pressure from constituents nationwide to address the rising cost of living, but Americans are feeling pain at the pump now that the Iran war, which the Trump administration kicked off in late February, has prompted a spike in gas prices.
