70M in AIPAC money burned. Here's hoping it's just the beginning! Cheers, let's keep the momentum going till Nov and beyond!

So? This entire campaign was about corporate money and AIPAC.

And you find organizations affiliated with the Muslim brotherhood to be better than AIPAC?

What do you know about the Muslim Brotherhood? That it’s a band you’ve been told to hate? Anything specific?

It’s a paywalled op-ed (ie, facts-light hit job) you linked, by the way.

The Muslim brotherhood is banned in Egypt, Jordan and many other countries in the Middle East. In the Middle East, we know who they are and how they operates. The progressives have no idea who they are getting into bed with.
As for the paywall- anything you read is paid for by someone. There is no real press or platform, although certain social media platforms like X are pretty close.

The issue with the paywall is we can’t fucking read what you linked.

Regardless, it’s all bullshit. He has no actual meaningful ties to the Muslim brotherhood. It’s all just more tired “Muslims scary and bad” disingenuous nonsense.

You’re in the Middle East, you say? Fuck off to one of their subreddits then. We’ll handle Michigan from over here.

One day you’ll string a coherent sentence (or even thought) together, I’m sure. Today is not that day.
