Among the Rs it's pretty much just her, Thomas Massie, and sometimes Rand Paul. The number on the D's can mostly be counted on one hand as well but it might be a bit bigger.

It's time to admit the uncomfortable truth. When it comes to foreign actors influencing our democracy, Russia and China are close to nothing in comparison to Israel.

If a politician can't denounce at least one of AIPAC or Israel then just call them what they are. A traitor who is owned by a foreign government. Sadly that's 90% of congress.

Odd question. Under the establishing principles of the US government, does congress have sovereign authority if is owned by a foreign government? I'm starting to view our federal government as being entirely illegitimate.

Why are we putting so much positive attention on a literal anti-semite? She is a terrible person, motivated by her terrible opinions, who happened to (for entirely different reasons) have a somewhat decent take on israel and aipac. This person was talking about fucking jewish space lasers like 5 years ago. She isn't trustworthy, she isn't woke, stop humanizing her.

@procapra Stop AIPAC
They have a loophole that gives them privileges no one else has.
Foreign Agents.
Besides that, some of them have been outright spies, like Jonathan Pollard
What we give them is not enough.
They have to steal, because theft and lying are their business.

One question. Which is a greater moral crime? Being an anti-semite or stealing resources from the American people and giving it to Israel to bomb children? Can you prove that she is an anti-semite and not just attempting to counter the AIPAC control grid. Because you know AIPAC is going to do everything it can to get the American public to conflate those two.

But even if she were an anti-semite, for which you have no evidence, she would still be morally superior to 90%+ of congress just for opposing genocide.

You are calling someone with a nasty personality worse than people who organize genocide. Maybe given that circumstance she should have a nasty personality. You should vote on policy anyway. An asshole who has the right conclusions is doing more for you than a gladhander with a progressive message who is willing to help murder children if it means staying in power.

she believes that california catches fire multiple times per year because of "jewish space lasers" and that jews are conspiring to "flood europe with migrants to outbreed white people"

she's an unhinged far-right conspiracy theorist, she does not give a shit about the genocide, she just hates jews

a stopped watch being right twice a day doesn't make it a good timeteller for that minute. a good timeteller is a quality that is earned by reliability and trustworthiness and consistency. so too with a politician. I don't need to hear a person say "I am an antisemite. I hate jews." to observe that "jewish space lasers caused the wildfires" is a thing that would only occur to a mentally unwell antisemite (a bit redundant i know) to say in the circumstances.

"nasty personality" what a polite expression. would you care to be any more specific in your praise?
