Replying to @TrackAIPAC
So today Trump wins. The Epstein class wins. Israel wins. And the American people lose, yet again.

This needs to be a litmus test for leadership. The voters were crystal clear - no more funding or entanglement with Israel. Serve the American voters, not donors or foreign countries. If a Democratic leader won’t agree to defeat Sec. 219, they shouldn’t represent us.
I am outraged by Section 219 that integrates our military with Israel's. This needs to be top priority in the lame duck. I am pushing every Democrat and our leadership to get Section 219 out of our defense bill.

If new Congress members vote for Jeffries en masse, without even a fight, that means sending all of them to Washington was apparently a waste of everyone's time. No one in their right mind actually thinks voters sent them there to prop up establishment Dems. #tytlive

Trump taking orders from the Israeli assets over at the FDD. The pattern is obvious. So pathethic.
The evidence is undeniable at this point. The Foundation for Defense of Democracies has a clear and primary role in the United States’ Iran War strategy, and an overwhelming role in the economic warfare strategy. On April 12th, CENTCOM announced the forthcoming implementation of the U.S. Blockade of Iran at 1:52PM. 93 minutes later, Miad Maleki, a Senior Fellow at FDD, published a viral 10-part X thread chock full of data… along with the now infamous “13 days to oil well shut-ins”. 93 minutes. Then, on November 7th, CENTCOM announced the launch of Task Force Iron Gate at 6:30AM. Just later that same day, Miad of FDD published another 10-part X thread, complete with data and graphics this time, along with the claim that he reviewed 110 financial documents to do this. How did someone review 110 financial documents, draft a 10-part X post, and add graphics… in less than 7 hours? 93 minutes. 7 hours. The evidence is undeniable. Get this Israeli Think Tank out of AMERICAN war strategy.

Didn't Ro Khanna say he supports Hakeem Jeffries? That weak, AIPAC-bought, anti-progressive do-nothing has no business leading the Democrats. #tytlive

No wonder people hate media!
Wait, what? How do the historic wins of progressives on Nov. 3 mean that Chuck Schumer—the very definition of an establishment Democrat, the man who initially opposed many of the winners, including El-Sayed—is some kind of genius who must be annointed king of the Senate?

Wait until Jack finds out there are other African American representatives
There’s an effort underway to erode black political power in this country by blocking the election of the first-ever African American Speaker of the House.

shoutout to @TrackAIPAC for the incredible work. we also asked them to map out the total dollar amount aipac wasted on our races this year. will talk about this tomorrow.
A striking stat re AIPAC performance in the midterms. In 2022, almost 70% of its funds went into races where it got the desired result. In 2024, it was 87%. In 2026, that figure is 34%. responsiblestatecraft.org/ai…
