OK here we go:
"Cori Bush warns pro-Israel lobby ‘to be afraid’ after primary loss"
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/aug/07/cori-bush-pro-israel-lobby-warning
“While Aipac targeted both Bowman and Bush because of their support for Palestinian human rights, the group did not highlight or even mention this issue in their smear campaigns. While Aipac will claim their positions are ‘good policy and good politics’ it is clear that they are well-aware that they are losing the battle for public opinion”
@gratefuldread The sheer volume of attacks on Cori by AIPAC is on a new level. The duplicity behind it isn't. The number of people I spoke to when canvassing who had no idea the UDP is an AIPAC front highlights how democracy itself becomes meaningless in the presence of unlimited dark money from very deep pockets. We are in danger of losing meaningful democracy to the corruption engendered by Citizens United and its precursers.
Canvassed for Cori again today, on a brutally hot StL summer day. I shouldn't be surprised anymore, but still am when confronted with how disengaged - no, uninformed - rotm USians are about what's going on. Couldn't even say how many I spoke with had no idea that AIPAC is spending millions to take Cori down. I'm sorta confident the people's ground game will fend them off, but it's gonna be close...

Canvassed for Cori Bush in the Soulard neighborhood in St. Louis this afternoon. That was some hot business there! I resemble a wet dishrag at the moment. Luckily, a Civil Life brew or two should restore me so I can get back out there tomorrow. Doing what I can to fend off the big-money attack on one of the very few in Congress who represents my values
