I want you to hear what our Republican Congressman Mark Amodei said about David Flippo.
26 October 2026 · Teresa Benitez-Thompson · $1.5–2K · 90K+ impressions · Promotional · Ad Library
David Flippo opposes higher wages and would replace his own workers with A.I. to save a buck. One things for certain in this race, David Flippo only fights for himself.

For years, David Flippo claimed he earned the Bronze Star with valor. He didn’t. Then he illegally hid his finances for months. David Flippo doesn’t deserve our trust or our vote.

In the State Legislature, I raised the minimum wage and held politicians accountable. In Congress, I’ll continue that fight for Northern Nevadans.

I’ve spent my career serving Northern Nevada. David Flippo only serves himself, lying about his military record and illegally hiding finances. Northern Nevada deserves leaders who serve others, not themselves.

For years, David Flippo claimed he earned the Bronze Start with valor. He didn’t. And his supervisor relieved him of duty for “loss of confidence.” We can’t trust him.

Each name opens the page’s Vipima page, with its own figures and its link to Meta’s Ad Library.
Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
