AIPAC Meddling In Cori Bush's District!

AIPAC lines up a candidate to challenge Cori Bush.

Foreign operatives try to oust progressive lawmaker because of her support for Palestine. 

She may be insufferable, but she at least standing on the right side of history.

The American Israel Public Affairs Committee is the most powerful lobbyist group in the United States. It is also the most controversial. It is literally forcing the U.S. to turn a blind eye to the atrocities caused by Israel. The Democratic Party is still simping for this organization. It is almost like the Republicans when it comes to the National Rifle Association.

Democrats claim to be in support of human rights, democracy and the party of being anti-racist. Yet they are pretty damn Islamophobic and xenophobic. Their support for Israel will cost them a generation of votes.

Arab Americans, Muslims and young voters are strongly against President Joe Biden and Democrats support and stance for Israel. They are outspent by a 2 to 1 when it comes to electing progressives or candidates who represent their interest.

While I strongly detest the performance art of Nina Turner, she called out Democrats for backing the genocidal Israeli government. Because of her bowl of shit remarks, I could not back Turner for Congress. She would be the left's version of Rep. Majorie Taylor Greene (R-GA). I supported her challenger Shontel Brown who eventually won the Ohio 11th Congressional District. Now as the Democratic Representative from Ohio, Brown is lockstep with Biden in voting. Even when it comes to Israel, she is strongly favoring that foreign entity over Cleveland interests.

Brown has shown some backbone though. She has toned down the rhetoric and did not vote for censure of Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) and did not back the Republican backed Israel funding bill. 

However, she is equating anti-Zionism to anti-semitism. 

Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) is performance art. She is a lazy lawmaker. Yet, she has more backbone than her opponent Wesley Bell. The cohort of Black and brown lawmakers is facing what they see as an “existential threat” to their political careers. It’s a struggle that raises significant questions about who can be a Democrat in Congress, what positions are permissible about Israel and the Palestinians, and what role outside groups should have in determining both.

Bell was considering a challenge against Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO), a white nationalist and supporter of the insurrection. Hawley is backed by AIPAC despite his rhetoric. Bell is backed by AIPAC as well and he is using his donation money and rhetoric to paint Bush as an ineffective lawmaker.

You also notice the timing. Bush is under federal watch for allegedly using her campaign funds to pay for private security owned by her bodyguard now husband.

Think about how Greene. The Republican lawmaker is lazy. She barely spends any time in her district. She is a white nationalist, said some pretty antisemitic shit, supported the insurrection, voted to support Israel and has called for ethno-nationalism.

Where's AIPAC?

Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY), the Democratic leader and Majority Leader of the Senate is the most pro-Israeli lawmaker in Washington. His New York constituents are waning on his blanket support. Schumer, Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY), Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL), Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) and Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), the Minority Leader faced the most protesters in regards to their support of Israel. 

Wesley Bell is a shill for the Pro Israeli lobby. He will play dirty bull to defeat Cori Bush.

Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have tried to exclude protesters from their events. It is costing them big time especially if they're willing to sit it out or vote third party. Donald J. Trump could return and cause more chaos.

Bell was paid by AIPAC to drop out of the Senate race. He was paid to run for the U.S. House to take on Bush. 

Now he wants to make this a race about her effectiveness as a House member and the Department of Justice investigation. That DOJ investigation mysteriously dropped on Bush weeks after Tlaib was censured and Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) had papers criticizing 9/11 and the reasons to why it happened.

Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), chair of the Progressive Caucus who is also a target of AIPAC this year, said she has been talking with Democrats who still receive money from the group about the damage it could do to the party and their efforts to regain the House.

“This is hurting the Democratic Party to challenge our incumbents,” Japayal said. “Our goal as a unified Democratic Party is to make sure that Joe Biden stays in the White House, and that we take back the House and make Hakeem Jeffries our speaker and that we expand our ranks in the Senate.”
