Michael Arria talks to Ryan Grim about The Squad vs. the Israel Lobby, and students at Columbia University fight pro-Palestine censorship.

PBS News Hour irresponsibly suggests that Rep. Ilhan Omar is antisemitic for her criticism of pro-Israel campaign spending by the Israel lobby. And the same broadcast covers “dark money” in this year’s campaign without mentioning $27 million AIPAC just dropped in the latest cycle. Go figure.

After the Squad openly criticized Israel in the House during the Gaza onslaught last May, Nina Turner came under pressure to disavow her friendships with those reps. “I was told by a prominent Jewish businessman, we’re coming at you with everything you got, you need to disavow the Squad. If I didn’t do it they were coming for me.” Turner lost in August after an onslaught of negative ads paid for by pro-Israel groups.
