Financial backers of Biden's primary challenger ask him to return their donations

*Snip*

Vance Opperman, a Democratic Party fundraiser who Twin Cities Business magazine called “the ultimate influencer” in Minnesota, told CNBC in an interview that he texted Phillips and requested that his past donations to the congressional campaign not to be used in his run against Biden. Opperman said Phillips told him his contributions would not be used for the primary run versus Biden.

Opperman said that after it become evident earlier this year that Phillips was at least considering running for president, he was forced to cancel a September fundraising event for the Minnesota’s congressman’s reelection campaign. He said almost half of the 20 invitees had canceled their planned attendance.

Opperman has been a Biden ally for years and said he helped organize a fundraiser for the president’s campaign in Minnesota that took place after Phillips announced his run for president.

But it’s not just Opperman who doesn’t want to help Phillips with his latest political effort.

A couple of Snips from your link.. TY

There’s just no excuse for not condemning Hamas and demanding the release of the hostages. Hollywood was quick to declare Black Lives Matter, as they should, and Time’s Up, as they should, and myriad other important causes,” Greenblatt tells Variety. “There’s plenty of room for criticism of Israel or to voice concerns about the ongoing war in Gaza, but that doesn’t provide celebrities and industry reps with an open license to wage unfair accusations against Israel, such as accusing it of ‘apartheid’ or ‘genocide’ or, worse, to celebrate the actions of Hamas terrorists.


When it comes to Israel, the use of the word “genocide” has long been considered problematic in Hollywood. In 2021, Mark Ruffalo apologized for suggesting Israel was committing genocide and added, “It’s not accurate, it’s inflammatory, disrespectful & is being used to justify antisemitism here & abroad.” In 2014, Javier Bardem and celebrate the actions of Hamas terrorists.”
Penelope Cruz signed a letter that called Israel’s operations in Gaza “genocide.” They both later clarified their positions after being widely criticized.
