Summary of events:
Bush was elected in 2020 when she beat former Rep. William Lacy Clay in the Democratic primary.
In a phone call last summer her challenger Bell told her he would not run against her.
Bush was one of the first members of Congress to call for a ceasefire in Gaza, alongside Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., the only Palestinian American member of Congress.
This primary AIPAC spent $8.5 million supporting Bell including mailers which featured images with distortions made to Bush’s features. It is the fourth most expensive primary in House history.
This is now the 2nd Squad member AIPAC has removed through its campaign financing.
It’s almost as if being pro-Israel while also being anti-Netenyahu while also being anti-Hamas while also being pro-Palestinian is really popular to those who vote at the ballot box ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It’s almost as if money has a huge influence on elections and allowing legal bribery of politicians and judges probably isn’t the best route to improving conditions for disadvantaged members in any society.
And I don’t see how pushing to continue to fund and supply their genocide is “pro-Palestinian”.
What genocide is happening due to Hamas?
Last I checked it’s Israel that has been occupying both the West Bank and Gaza for decades.
It’s Israel that’s been declared by the ICC to be committing acts of genocide.
Israel is the one that’s running an apartheid state for decades.
