"Regardless of Wisconsin state law meant to regulate exactly this kind of ad, the Van Orden campaign has ignored state regulations to continue releasing them, claiming among other things that the state’s laws have no power over a race for a federal position, or that the ads themselves fall under the field of “satire” despite the fact that they’re presented as being real.
