The press continues to ignore the funding behind conservative donors’ preferred “pro-Israel” instrument for hijacking Democratic primaries.

"AIPAC gets their money from right-wing billionaires."

This needs to be repeated over and over until AIPAC becomes toxic within the Democratic party.

They know, because AIPAC is funding them too.

Look, a handy list of the literal worst democrats!

Yeah, maybe I was unclear that the messaging should be directed at Democratic voters, essentially that Dems who get AIPAC money are the Dems who those right-wing billionaires are fine having in office.

I'm always plugging opensecrets.org as a great way to investigate candidates before giving them support, for anyone who isn't familiar you can search a candidate and look at their campaign finance record for pacs like AIPAC or JStreet etc.
