A  pro-Donald Trump, not-for-profit group has labeled former James Comey a “showboat” in ads to air Thursday, the day of the former FBI director’s testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee.

Comey “put politics over protecting America,” a narrator says in the 30-second ad, titled “Showboat,” which posted on YouTube Wednesday. It accuses him of being “consumed with election meddling” even as “terror attacks were on the rise.”

The ad echoes the president’s words in an NBC interview in May when he called Comey a “showboat” and “grandstander” and contradicted his team by saying he had always planned to fire the FBI director. The Great America Alliance formed out of the Great America PAC that supported Trump’s election as U.S. president in November, and aims to mobilize continued support for Trump.

The ad will reportedly air on CNN and Fox News Thursday, when Comey will deliver his much-anticipated testimony before the Senate committee, which is investigating allegations that Moscow interfered in the U.S. election and that Trump officials colluded with Russia before and after the vote.
