AIPAC Wants #Democrats to Back Israel. Instead, They’re Turning on AIPAC.
Once the guardian of the bipartisan pro-Israel consensus, it is now a polarizing force in the party.

June 12, 2026When Brad Lander opened his #Democratic primary bid for #NY 10th Congressional District late last year, he made a promise that would once have meant political suicide: He would not do #AIPAC’s bidding” in Washington.
Now the June 23 primary is almost here, and AIPAC has been a recurring theme throughout the campaign. A progressive #Jew and self-described liberal #Zionist, Lander challenged his opponent, the pro-#Israel incumbent #DanGoldman, to take a “people’s pledge” to limit money from #SuperPACs. He has sent a steady stream of text and email blasts comparing AIPAC with Wall Street and crypto — a new, unholy trinity of corrupting influences in democratic politics.

(done by @MeidasTouch.)It's really worth watching, even if you have been following current affairs all along.
Also, important info about a new fight to the benchmark #CitizensUnitedVsFEC #SCOTUS decision about #SuperPACs and their stranglehold on the #US #plutocracy aka "#democracy."
