May 13

that is the subject of this thread. It explains clearly what the subject matter is.

edit From the article:
ardently pro-Israel political powerhouse

edit: From the article:
“They do not want any critique, they do not want any accountability, and so what it looks like to people in my district and around the country is that Israel can do whatever it wants even though, to people on the outside looking in, it looks completely wrong and horrible,” Bowman says of AIPAC.

The article is discussing Bowman's anti-Israel response. The title of this thread is that his anti-Israel positions might cost him his job.

Whatabouting for a significantly RW billionaire-funded AIPAC, who endorsed 109 traitorous election denialist Republicans Celerity May 13 #22

Does or did AIPAC give any money to Democrats? If so have any of those Democrats kelly1mm May 13 #59

If a poster here advocated for those 109 traitor Rethugs but also advocated for some Dems, they would still be banned, Celerity May 13 #66

So I will say that is a no on any Democrats, including Leader Jeffries and former Speaker kelly1mm May 13 #67

I wish all Democrats would return the AIPAC money and refuse it in the future. Celerity May 13 #68

AIPAC, which gives 10s of millions to dozens of repubs who support trump brooklynite May 13 #12

That would be over $46 thousand per candidate unc70 May 13 #21

here Celerity May 13 #46

AIPAC related Super Pacs do, but you knew that, here is but one example: Celerity May 13 #45

So your objection is that they're not supporting a Democrat and instead are...supporting a Democrat? brooklynite May 13 #47

I was just pointing out that you are ignoring the millions (they have committed to spending over 100 million usd) in Celerity May 13 #48

This is the glaring example of what the real issue is with Nixie May 13 #65
