It's a mystery
AIPAC and its donors have no place in American politics.
Why stop there? No donors. Zero. It's all the same problem.
You can't (logically) reject AIPAC money while accepting luxury jets from Qatar.
Honestly if you want fair elections then you would need to set up an election fund and use it to give everyone the same sum of money for their campaign. Any other external contributions would be illegal. That way everyone, no matter who they are would be on equal footing.
This would be fine and could be done for a fraction of the current election spending. It’s absurd how much money is wasted on these dumbass campaign ads.
A side benefit of this change would be that corpo media loses one of their primary revenue streams. They might have to start doing actual journalism again…!
Gee, $$$$$ I wonder $$$$$$ what could $$$$$$$$$$ have $$$$$$$$ happened $$$$$$$ to make her $$$$$$ change her $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ mind
That'$ $ome kinda li$p you got going.
We may never know
$$$$ is the root of all that kills, right Israel?
Turkish donated $15,000 toward a political action committee supporting Slotkin’s 2024 campaign, per federal election data.
What kind of "normal" person can fucking donate $15k to a PAC?
The same sort of person who can donate $24k to a Susan Collins PAC.
Turkish has described himself as a Democrat, although his political donations have also included contributions to Republican candidates.
According to The Detroit News, federal campaign finance records show that he donated more than $24,000 to committees allied with Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine in 2025.
His photo looks insane. This isn't a 2000s-era video game NPC?
It’s like someone drew a picture of Stephen Miller with their foot
That's it, that's exactly it... Stephen Miller, ordered on Wish that's what he looks like. It was driving me crazy!
Ozempic did this to him.
Same logic as people who buy ba water of a celebrity
Can it just really be money? Any chance she's being blackmailed?
Emotionally, yes. Read the article. Her partner is Jewish and was basically telling her that she was being anti-Semitic for backing Sayed. You throw that kind of borderline abusive emotional manipulation on top of half her campaign funding coming from AIPAC and it's not hard to see how this happened. No conspiracy required.
This makes a lot of sense. Especially given her bizarre interview with Anderson Cooper. He kept asking her the same question: what changed on the night before you endorsed the Republican? And she kept (ineptly) tap-dancing around the issue and fluctuating wildly between thanking Cooper for giving her air time and getting hostile about his question.
Her behavior and that interview shows all the hallmarks of someone who has jumped into or been pushed into a corner and doesn't know how to get out.
Not that I pity her as it stands. This whole fiasco shows a remarkable lack of character and spine from her.
Jesus.
Can you imagine what she would've been like as a senator? The woman appears to have no foundation.
And her fiancé... this relationship sounds toxic. In all directions. His behavior and hers sound awful.
Partner or handler?
Yes.
Israel came to her dream again
I$RAEL COME$ TO ME IN MY DREAM$!!!
