When they didn't force the vote, they showed you who they are. This is just them cashing in, confirming the assimilation is complete.

Perhaps a Boycott or Divestment would be an appropriate Sanction?

AIPAC needs to stop existing, it's advocating for genocide and effectively a wing of the Isreali government.

The only reason it doesn't have to register as an agent of foreign government, is the people who decide that take AIPAC money.

AIPAC doesn't care about anything except the support of Israel, they'll fund whoever supports them most.

With such a large amount of money to burn, “most” candidates won’t be able to withstand the negative campaigning, meaning AIPAC “can be quite successful in wiping them out,” former Rep. Andy Levin (D-Mich.) told Politico. Levin would know. AIPAC targeted him during a 2022 primary because he, a self-proclaimed Zionist and former president of his synagogue, had vocally defended Palestinians. He lost the primary as a result.

Even if you call yourself a Zionist, you can't deviate from the script

These are the best progressive we can get and unfortunately soon our later the GOP and the Democrats will push them out.

Are you trying to apply that he is a progressive? That guy is neoliberal and right of fucking Regan.

No he's a corporate shill, bought and paid for already. AIPAC helped him defeat Porter and Lee.

Honestly it’s a goddamn travesty that Porter didn’t get that ticket. She’d be a fuckin’ legend in the Senate.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

With such a large amount of money to burn, “most” candidates won’t be able to withstand the negative campaigning, meaning AIPAC “can be quite successful in wiping them out,” former Rep. Andy Levin (D-Mich.) told Politico.

AIPAC has much more funding this election because of Israel’s assault on Gaza, a reaction to the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas that killed approximately 1,200 Israelis.

AIPAC’s super PAC, United Democracy Project, is monitoring between 15 and 20 House races, a person directly familiar with UDP’s strategy informed Politico.

AIPAC is likely looking to oust members of “The Squad,” progressive House Democrats including Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.

Min, a Democrat, has not even called for a permanent ceasefire, but he has criticized new Israeli settlements in the West Bank and disparaged Netanyahu for lapses in security ahead of the Oct. 7 attack.

AIPAC has used the DUI against Min, sending mailers and running TV ads capitalizing on what he has acknowledged was the worst mistake of his career.
