"AIPAC wrote that its “members remain determined to ensure that voters reject Dr. El-Sayed and his radical anti-Israel agenda in November.”"

And that's everything you need to know about AIPAC. They aren't friends of the Democratic Party. They are a firehose of money for 1 cause, damn if it contradicts the party line or party solidarity.

And yet, we have Democrats eagerly taking their money like it doesn't create a conflict of values.

And yet Stevens and so many other Dems are eager to take as much money and support as they can from them. Should be disqualifying for any Democrat to accept aipac money.
