It is insane that the Democrats allow super PACs like AIPAC to spend millions in their primaries โ only for those same special interests to help elect Republicans in the general election.
My message to Democratic leaders: Ban super PACs from Democratic primaries NOW.
Hereโs the problem. When you put another country above the USA, when you are in the US government, no matter what you say, you arenโt working for the American people. Go be a lobbyist.

AIPAC spent $30 million trying to defeat Abdul El-Sayed in the primary. They lost.

This is not democracy. This is oligarchy and a corrupt billionaire-funded campaign finance system.
Fight back.
