Television snake oil salesman and Republican nominee for the Senate from Pennsylvania (even though he lives in New Jersey) Mehmet Oz continues to ignore the fact that his audience lives in Pennsylvania by releasing an op/ed about the Keystone State in a Washington, DC media outlet.
Dogged by an effective campaign by Democratic opponent John Fetterman to paint him as an outsider with no connection to Pennsylvania, Oz demonstrated his indifference to addressing his home audience by printing an op/ed in the Washington Examiner, a far-right news outlet that runs out of DC.
In the op/ed, Oz lays on the Republican talking point in the DC outlet, slamming the state he wants to represent: “This brand of criminals-first politics, championed by Democratic Senate candidate and Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, has ushered in a culture of subjective justice in which radical extremism is placed above the democratic rule of law and safe streets. Violent offenders avoid prosecution, immigration law is ignored in so-called sanctuary cities, and law-abiding citizens are left defenseless. Progressive leaders, more concerned with virtue signaling than with upholding the rule of law, have stood idly by while businesses are robbed, citizens are attacked, and neighborhoods are torn apart.”
