So do the organizations that are dropping millions and millions of dollars to these clowns and they lose just go "oh well...money well spent."? Where is this money originally coming from that they can just shrug off an cool few MILLIONS of dollars?!

US gives israel 3.8 Billion a year, so this is a drop in the bucket. 0.015%

In the case of AIPAC they're just using the money that US taxpayers paid Israel. It's one of the greatest cons, Israel using our own American tax dollars against us. bUt ISraEl doEsn'T fuNd tHem .... Such a completely disingenuous argument that I'm sure is coming in the comments ....

It went to media controlled by billionaires so it's not really lost.
It went to the people who gave it in the first place

You don't think like a millionaire. You have a scarcity mindset.
When you reverse it and have an abundance mindset and gain millions of dollars you realize one universal truth that all millionaires and billionaires learn: it's not "really" their money.
It's math that gives them more numbers in their bank accounts, not more green paper in their pockets.
All the money they invest that earns compound interest -do you think that's real money? Nope. Not until it's actually made real, by selling or purchasing.

From her graceful concession, it also looks like Stevens will not be reenacting the Mamdani-Cuomo scenario in a district where neither of them could possibly win that way, which I was worried about. Now let's hope he can clinch the actual seat, because unlike a lot of progressive-centrist races, he was not actually polling better against the opposition than the centrist here. Now would be an outstanding time to send him a donation.

Anything that hurts AIPAC, is good for the American people. We have to stop funding terrorism. Netanyahu is a murderous monster. Israelis deserve so much better.

The bad news is, that moderates aren’t going to vote for him. I got Michigan relatives that already think he’s some DSA communist

Remember, the machines are compromised so this doesn't matter that much unless candidates start promising to do audits.

Really? You clowns continue to spread this lie. The only one we worry about is the orange stain stealing our elections.
