With everything happening in the USA, where democracy is being threatened, these Democrats choose to visit Israel at the expense of AIPAC to whom they’ve sold their souls. Hoping owls are paying attention and primary these people and have those with a conscience of humanity are elected. Individuals who are not easily bought for personal gains.

AIPAC should be a registered foreign agent.

Because they are CLEARLY foreign agents. I mean, they don't even hide it.

I agree but feel focusing on AIPAC as a single piece might be a tactical mistake cuz it's just one head of a much larger monster and can easily launder money w the help of the capitalists on wall street.

Anyone who would celebrate the extermination of a group of people, in this case the Palestinian people, is a monster and their constituents need to be educated about them. These Democrats are a stain on their party, and all political parties. They need to be publicly shamed and removed from office. AIPAC is a foreign agent, and they are accepting money from them. That is a crime. And then, they are celebrating the slow and painful starvation of thousands and thousands of people. They disgust me.

Wow, Nellie Pou is my rep (NJ-9), embarrassing from her, since there’s a lot of Palestinian-Americans in Paterson, NJ. It sucks that a progressive candidate never wins the primary, it’s always the establishment rigging the county line.

Supported the Democrats for decades and because of our last Genocidal administration and ones like THESE I am completely DONE with them for good. Don’t they realize the damage they are doing in supporting these Genocidal maniacs? Came to realize both parties are basically the same. Neither work for their constituents. AIPAC/Israel has RUINED our country.

This feels to me like real time illustrating of why Malcolm called white liberals the most dangerous people.....they lie w every breath they are alive. Pretending to not be what they are. Thank the gods the mask has finally (and inevitably) fallen.

The path to end the genocide is so uneven. One minute we have Medicin Sans Frontiere reporting on the genocide, Germany taking a tactical step to end support for it, then American congress people posing courtesy of AIPAC while Trump salivates over the prospects of a resort in Gaza. I spent hours the last few days reading about international courts and justice. It takes years. So the congress people seem to me to be the key in the U.S. They are the ones we can hold accountable as citizens. Find a crack in the wall and get through it! I get requests from congress members all over the country, which is ridiculous, but they will take money wherever they can. If they belong to you, let them know how you feel!

This is who they've always been, except now we see the neoliberal propaganda for what it is, a cover for their genocidal paymasters to hide while they erase people who get in the way of capitalist extraction.

This is an example My fellow democrats of how republicans feel toward democrats and the β€œname calling” on either side is not bringing us together. The one way is β€œlive aid” coming together in song and putting together our voices and coming together to help the people and their children.

What? This is not name calling, this is acknowledging that some of our reps are bought and paid for by a group that claims every criticism of Israel is antisemitism!
