Remind me why it’s legal for a foreign government to fund election campaigns in the U.S. against it’s critics? When mbs ordered the killing of Jamaal Kashogi, and people were outraged, did we let him pay for the election campaign of his critics opponent? Who’s Saudi Arabia’s candidate in congress this year? how about China’s? Russia’s?
Remember when Bernie almost won and only took transparent, U.S. based small money donations? Remember what it was like to have a candidate that you actually trusted?

Because in this case there are people that will call you antisemitic for even noticing that it’s happening.
Pepperidge Farms remembers
A lobby heavily aligned with the interests of a foreign power being capable of dropping by and dumping tons of money in order to place politicians loyal to their agenda in positions of power is not a sign of a healthy democracy.
They outspent him 7 to 1.
He was already down 10% in the polls before the campaign even started
He should run as an independent and lets help him his seat.
AIPAC solidifies that they own America.
This was a signal to every politician thinking of dissenting from Israel
Bingo
Now imagine if instead of Israel’s money it was Russia’s money or China’s.
“Fine, if you’re not going to vote Biden, at least vote down ballot. Primaries and local offices are the next wave of politicians.”
[Funds into primaries to remove progressives from office, backs conservatives because of “electability”.]
“Oh uh, sorry. By the way this is you, the pleb’s fault, not the rich we gladly accept. Maybe next year we won’t pull the football out of the way when someone pays us to?”
Sorry, the rest of us need to stick our heads in the sand if Trump and Russia are not involved. You know how unions work… well I don’t, I’m from the US.
When push comes to shove, democrats move rightward.
Which is why we have two right wing parties and no left wing parties left in the US. Moves like this are how we got stuck with Trump in 2016 and almost again in 2020 and now once again in 2024.
No party has held the white house with consecutive different nominees in a long time. Meaning to say even if Biden gets 8 years the Dems will likely lose the election after that to either Trump again or a smarter quieter fascist. Thats a trend that I dont think has been bucked since HW Bush came after Reagan. Last time we had two Dems back to back was JFK into Lyndon Johnson. It’s literally just a matter of time and how a small handful of swing states feel about current events before we’re stuck with one again.
Whelp, that’s awful
Don’t forget who endorsed the conservative…
Hillary Clinton endorses George Latimer in challenge to unseat Jamaal Bowman
Democrats fight harder against progressives in their own party than they fight against the Republican policy they are elected to suppress.
See also former progressive Mondaire Jones.
Jones in 2020: “defund the police!” votes to impeach fascist American president
Jones in 2024: “Hooray for the fascist apartheid regime currently committing genocide! So progressive!”
This ruined my day =(
This race was closer than I thought. He lost 45k to 40k. Yeah it’s still a sizable margin, but I was thinking it’d be by 10-15k votes.
‘The primaries aren’t important’. Lol.
