A PAC supporting six Navy SEAL combat veterans running for Congress this year released a powerful ad spotlighting their determination to defeat what they have identified as the “one grave threat” left to America: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and the Democrats who control Congress.

Highlighting the sacrifices these men made to protect America “from enemies all over the world,” the ad features black-and-white photos of the six American heroes, taken from their days serving in combat zones around the world: Morgan Luttrell (running in Texas’ eighth district), Brady Duke (running in Florida’s seventh district), Eli Crane (running in Arizona’s second district), Derrick Van Orden (running in Wisconsin’s third district), Ed Thelander (running in Maine’s first district), and Ryan Zinke (running in Montana’s first district).

A voice-over narrator tells viewers, “They took a blood oath to defend America. They understand that the only easy day was yesterday. They know that our enemies are no match for their strength and their courage. These former Navy SEALs have protected America from enemies all over the world.”

“Now,” the narrator concludes, “they have one grave threat left to defeat,” as a color photo of Nancy Pelosi appears on the screen.

The ad was created by SEAL PAC, a super PAC that supports conservative military veterans running for Congress. The PAC is chaired by retired Navy SEALs Commander Ryan Zinke, who represented Montana’s at-large congressional district before serving as the Secretary of the Interior under President Donald Trump. Zinke, featured in the ad, is now running for the new House seat gained by Montana from the 2020 U.S. Census.

“The midterm elections will help determine the direction of our country,” Zinke told Breitbart News. “The stakes couldn’t be higher. Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the Democrat House majority represent a threat to America and the Constitution that veterans fought to defend. SEAL PAC’s mission is to elect conservative military veterans to Congress. We have all taken a blood oath to defend the Constitution. As SEAL PAC Chairmen, I take our mission very seriously and we are working to elect a conservative majority to Congress to get America headed in the right direction again.”

The timing couldn’t be better.

A record number of 28 House Democrats are retiring from Congress this year, making it far more likely that Pelosi will be able to hold onto her party’s majority in the House. According to a Rasmussen survey released Tuesday, Republicans currently enjoy a nine-point lead over Democrats in a generic congressional ballot.

Also of note, a Gallup poll released Monday revealed Republicans gained a five-point lead over Democrats in the number of Americans who identify with GOP, and, last month, the non-partisan Cook Political Report issued its 2022 House ratings showing Republicans as “clear favorites” to take control of Congress this year.
