EXCLUSIVE — The super PAC devoted to supporting Sen. Tim Scott's (R-SC) presidential campaign is debuting its third ad of the primary season, featuring supporters who tout the politician's ability to bring "the heat."
The 30-second ad from Trust in the Mission PAC will air in Iowa and New Hampshire and on national cable news during the summer. It's part of the PAC's previously reported $7.25 million ad buy.

Featured in the spot is a diverse group of supporters who have various ages, occupations, genders, and races. "Tim Scott's a conservative," a college student named Jenean says.
"Have you seen him work a crowd?" asks Mac, a veteran.
One supporter recalls Scott's appearance on the popular daytime talk show The View. "They couldn't take the heat," Ken, another veteran, says of the show's hosts.
"I'm the candidate the far Left fears the most," Scott told a crowd in footage from a recent event.
In a press release, TIMPAC Co-Chairman Rob Collins said, "The far Left is throwing everything they have at Sen. Tim Scott because he keeps debunking their lies about America."
He added: "Joe Biden and the Democrats fear him the most because his conservative vision and optimism in America has broad appeal with voters fed up with the failed status quo. Tim is the candidate with positive momentum in this race, and we expect that to continue as more voters hear from him."
The super PAC has also placed a $40 million reservation for TV and digital ad reservation for the fall. This brings TIMPAC's total amount either spent or reserved for paid media to $47.25 million since Scott entered the 2024 race. Other super PACs have yet to reserve air time for the fall in support of a 2024 candidate.

TIMPAC raised $19.3 million in its first fundraising report of the 2024 election cycle. This included $10.8 million that was transferred from a super PAC that previously supported the senator's reelection in 2022. At the end of June, TIMPAC boasted $15 million in cash on hand. Scott's campaign notably posted $21 million available cash, establishing a treasure trove to sustain a long-term presidential bid.
This comes as the two top-polling candidates, former President Donald Trump and Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), raise concerns over their financial statuses due to relatively high burn rates.
