Joe Manchin&#8217;s PAC just days after he launched an onslaught of digital fundraising ads that attack the West Virginia Democrat.<\/p>\n<p>On Dec. 22, Ryan&#8217;s Senate campaign began running dozens of Facebook ads that lambasted Manchin and asked for campaign contributions. In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ads\/library\/?active_status=all&amp;ad_type=political_and_issue_ads&amp;country=US&amp;id=1267534463726249&amp;view_all_page_id=197908256931216&amp;search_type=page&amp;media_type=all\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">one digital spot<\/a>, Ryan said he was &#8220;PISSED!&#8221; that &#8220;Joe Manchin just said he can&#8217;t support the Build Back Better Act after MONTHS of stringing along negotiations.&#8221; In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ads\/library\/?active_status=all&amp;ad_type=political_and_issue_ads&amp;country=US&amp;id=620035825977431&amp;view_all_page_id=197908256931216&amp;search_type=page&amp;media_type=all\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">another<\/a>, Ryan called Manchin &#8220;the sole person standing in the way of lower prescription drug costs&#8221; before asking viewers to &#8220;chip in $5 or whatever you can to help us win this Senate seat.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Just six days after Ryan began running the ads, however, his campaign <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fec.gov\/data\/receipts\/?data_type=efiling&amp;committee_id=C00777771&amp;contributor_name=Country+Roads+PAC&amp;contributor_name=Moderate+Democrats+\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">accepted<\/a> $5,000 from Manchin&#8217;s leadership PAC, Country Roads. On the same day, Ryan also accepted $10,000 from the &#8220;ModSquad,&#8221; a PAC founded by Manchin and nine other Senate Democrats.<\/p>\n<p>Ryan, who did not return a request for comment, continued his criticism of Manchin in the weeks following the launch of his ad campaign. In a fundraising email sent Jan. 19, Ryan accused Manchin of &#8220;hold[ing] the Senate hostage&#8221; and &#8220;standing in the way of passing legislation and making progress.&#8221; One day later, Ryan sent another fundraising email calling it &#8220;BS&#8221; that Manchin &#8220;killed Build Back Better, which would have put money back in the pockets of the middle class by lowering the cost of medicine, childcare, and health care.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Manchin did not return a request for comment on his PAC&#8217;s contribution and Ryan&#8217;s ads.<\/p>\n<p>Ryan has attempted to fashion himself as a champion of the working class in his bid to succeed outgoing Republican senator Rob Portman. But his decision to accept Manchin&#8217;s PAC money may undermine his blue-collar bonafides. Manchin&#8217;s Country Roads PAC has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.opensecrets.org\/political-action-committees-pacs\/country-roads-pac\/C00484402\/pac-to-pac\/2020\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">accepted<\/a> hundreds of thousands of dollars from large corporations, including Capital One, American Express, JPMorgan Chase, and Lockheed Martin. Ryan has <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TimRyan\/status\/943251630916501504?s=20&amp;t=sUXE_6B_QUr4xdd6elVK9Q\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">accused<\/a> Republicans of prioritizing &#8220;donors and super PACs&#8221; over &#8220;hardworking people.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ryan&#8217;s working-class image is also impaired by his decision to <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/democrats\/this-ohio-democrat-says-hes-a-champion-of-the-working-class-now-hes-backing-a-tax-break-for-coastal-millionaires\/\">vote<\/a> for a massive tax break for coastal millionaires\u2014a policy he once called &#8220;bullshit&#8221;\u2014through President Joe Biden&#8217;s $2 trillion spending package. Ryan&#8217;s willingness to back the policy came even as one of his Democratic colleagues refused to vote for the bill because of its &#8220;$280 billion tax giveaway to millionaires.&#8221; And while Ryan touts Biden&#8217;s legislation on the campaign trail, the bill would give a millionaire nearly 20 times more money than a low-income family.<\/p>\n<p>Ryan is not the only Democrat running to replace Portman. His chief primary opponent is Morgan Harper, a far-left challenger who attempted to unseat Rep. Joyce Beatty (D., Ohio) in 2020 but <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/elections\/justice-dems-trounced-in-bid-to-oust-congressional-black-caucus-leader\/\">lost by 36 points<\/a>. On the Republican side, state senator Matt Dolan, former state treasurer Josh Mandel, author J.D. Vance, former state party chairwoman Jane Timken, investment banker Mike Gibbons, and businessman Bernie Moreno headline a crowded primary field.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Democrats Ohio Dem&#8217;s campaign coffers get a boost from the same senator he says he&#8217;s &#8216;PISSED&#8217; at  Rep.
