Ad copy

John Thune took $2500 from insulin manufacturer Eli Lilly on August 2nd. Five days later, he voted against the $35 cap on insulin prices. On September 22nd, he received yet another $2500 from Eli Lilly. I can assure you that my votes will never be bought.

Standout elementFacebook content-removal notice replacing the actual ad, exposing a disclaimer compliance failure
TacticThe ad copy uses a specific dollar-amount-to-vote quid pro quo narrative against Thune on insulin pricing, but the ad was pulled for disclaimer violations, making the removal notice itself the only visible content.
