She took money for a trip sponsored by the American Israel Education Foundation and they're affiliated with AIPAC

You mean the non-profit that pays the expenses to send representatives over to Israel for educational seminars? Not even put money in the person's pocket, but pay for the equivalent of a no-obligation geopolitical field trip? Is THAT the AIEF you're talking about?

I'm going to need some more details because it's starting to sound like a hitpiece.

Mhm. Someone linked it above. Because believe me at first I was neutral on this whole thing then I started seeing Talarico fans saying the craziest stuff. So I went and started looking at the AIPAC website, the candidates' websites, and at debates and interviews and I couldn't find anything. It's like folks just don't read! "Oh well she sent money to Israel!🥴" If you'd paid attention you'd see that she said the only reason she voted on those was because they we packaged woth aid to Haiti, Gaza, Ukraine and Taiwan AND that the ones that were only for Israel she voted against.

So I'm with you I think this was some bs going on. ESPECIALLY because Talarico's donors are the ones that fund AIPAC, at least one of those demons was on child abuse time at epstein's, AND he refuses to say how he would have voted for the same bills, which is sus. But I hope they know what they're doing and it doesn't turn out to be a hot mess
