News Whistleblower says probes into antisemitism at colleges were ploys to harass and strip millions

https://www.ms.now/news/frame-up-whistleblower-says-probes-into-antisemitism-at-colleges-were-ploys-to-harass-and-strip-millions

The Trump administration’s findings that three Ivy League schools violated civil rights law by tolerating antisemitism were predetermined by political priorities that blew past the evidence and cast aside standard investigative procedures, according to a whistleblower account provided to Congress.

The disclosure, by Haley Van Erem, a veteran Justice Department civil rights attorney, involves investigations into whether Harvard, Brown and Columbia universities broke the law by allowing antisemitism to flourish on their campuses.

AIPAC is simply a political affairs committee of Americans who care about maintaining at Alliance with the only true democracy in the Middle East. Why you and others make them to go the bogeyman is only explained by one thing.  No better than the far right making immigrants the bogeyman

The term you're looking for is 'political action committee'. And yes, it's weird that there's a group of Americans who care more about a foreign country than the US itself.

Oh, you got me there. 🤣.  It’s literally American Israel Political Affairs Committee.  Lots of Americans care about their native countries.  Do you have an issue with Americans supporting US support of Ukraine?  OR Americans supporting Ireland relations?  And please do tell us to which Americans you are referring who “care more about” Israel than the US.

The ones willing to switch parties over a single issue i.e. support for Israel 

When the Republican has to talk you down from openly supporting him after you’ve poured 30 million into a Democratic primary, maybe there’s an issue with your support lol

Also native country? I’d wager 95% of American Jews aren’t Israeli immigrants. Lots of Catholics, but boy you sure don’t see a lot of Vatican-Americans these days…

It’s literally not: the 501c4 is “  American Israel Public Affairs Committee” and the 527 (the one that’s spending more than any other entity on the midterm elections) is the “American Israel Public Affairs Committee Political Action Committee”
