    AIPAc spent like 14 million against him.

    I think it I saw an article about how this was the most expensive primary for the House.

    So yeah, because of his stance on Palestine (which was “genocide bad”) Israel interfered in our election.

    But Schumer, Harrison, and Biden take more AIPAC money that pretty much anyone else, so they’re going to say this proves voters don’t want progress and love genocide.or some other crazy shit.

    Our system is broken and abused, and a D by someone’s name clearly isn’t enough anymore.

      This is all right, I’ll just add that Bowman was among the first to call for a ceasefire in Gaza, basically right after Oct 7th happened. A number of large progressive Dems have rallied to his side (including Bernie and AOC this past weekend), which clearly wasn’t enough.

      This was also a D primary, so everyone had a D by their name.

        This was also a D primary, so everyone had a D by their name.

        My point was Bowman’s opponent took 14 million from a foreign government to support their genocide

        He has a D by his name, but he’s a piece of shit. If the party has standards he wouldn’t be in the party

        But the party doesn’t have standards, because the party leaders take AIPAC money too.

        Like, I thought it was pretty clear already, is it making sense yet?
