AIPAC spent $15 million to help defeat Jamaal Bowman and now they have their sights set on Missouri’s 1st district, where Cori Bush faces a primary challenge. Can she beat the Israel lobby?

Calls for Joe Biden to step down as the Democratic Party candidate for U.S. President continue to grow louder.

Jews are overwhelmingly supportive of Israel even as other Democrats overwhelmingly oppose the Israeli “genocide.” And the Israel lobby, backed by pro-Israel donors, is what defeated Rep. Jamaal Bowman in New York.

Jamaal Bowman’s loss is undoubtedly a massive victory for the Israel lobby, however, it would be a mistake to overstate AIPAC’s power based solely on George Latimer’s win.

Michael Arria discusses the impact of Jamaal Bowman’s primary loss to George Latimer and whether AIPAC is really as influential as it claims to be.

The Israel lobby’s strong-arm tactics still work. But the amount of effort they needed to defeat Jamaal Bowman shows they won’t work forever. 

George Latimer used $15 million from AIPAC to defeat Jamaal Bowman in New York’s 16th district. “We should be outraged when a super PAC of dark money can spend $20 million to brainwash people into believing something that isn’t true,” Bowman said.

Michael Arria interviews Justice Democrats spokesperson Usamah Andrabi about the Reject AIPAC coalition, the Israel lobby’s election strategy, and two of the biggest primary fights of the summer.

The Israel lobby is set to make an example of Jamaal Bowman. Even if they’re barely talking about Israel as they do it.

Political consultant Peter Feld unpacks AIPAC’s strategy in the Democratic primaries, Jamaal Bowman’s bad poll numbers, and whether Gaza will impact Biden’s reelection.
