@EthicalSkeptic all the whispers of underground structures, growing more magnificent with each new (fuzzy) discovery, makes you look at this differently…like the plateau is a result of the land being buried from lots and lots of flooding.

I’m not claiming it’s Atlantis.

[Peter Girnus 🦅 @gothburz]

I am the Director of Provenance at AIPAC.

I wrote the post.

"AIPAC is all American. American directed. American funded. American members."

I wrote it, we ran it, and every word is true. The truth is the product.

American funded means the money comes from Americans. It does not mean you can follow it.

We have a vendor for that. Democracy Engine.

A candidate's FEC filing can read 0 dollars from AIPAC, accurate to the cent, because the money did not arrive from AIPAC. It arrived from Americans, through a processor, off a donation page we built, in an order I designed. We paid that processor $1.42 million in fees so the line "0 from AIPAC" would be flawless.

I hide the water. I hide the pipes. The only flaw in the whole machine is that the plumber lists me as a client on his LinkedIn.

In Philadelphia, our candidate reported 0 from us. Officially. We said it out loud — we denied funding her at all, and the denial was true to the cent. Then 27 separate donations reached her through Democracy Engine, from people who also write checks to AIPAC. The money was there. The name was not. That is the entire job.

There is a dashboard on my wall. It has 1 column, and that column must always read 0. When it reads 0, the money has been made American.

I will show you how clean it gets. One of our board members, in a single month, gave 2,000 dollars to a candidate in Philadelphia, 25,000 to the super PAC, and 5,500 to AIPAC directly. 1 man. 3 doors. 3 filings that never have to mention each other. He didn't launder anything. He used the building the way I designed it.

When a name gets heavy, we grow a new one. Elect Chicago Women — $9.8 million on 2 candidates, then a million handed to a third group so the third group's donors could stay dark. The Center for Democratic Priorities — incorporated in Delaware, no prior interest in Michigan, still hasn't filed a registration, so the donors stay invisible until July. American funded. You simply cannot find the Americans.

My favorite passthrough is named 314 Action. For pi. For scientists. A million dollars from our super PAC went in, read 0 on the April filing, and surfaced on June 20 — after the primary. Even the laundromat has a wholesome name.

People think the donors are a secret. They are not. The largest single check we cashed in 2024 was from the man who built WhatsApp. The names are public. It is the path that is private.

Here is the part I am proudest of. Our biggest source of Republican money goes into Democratic primaries. We are the largest pipeline of Republican cash into Democratic races in the country, and we spend it telling Democratic voters which Democrat is the real Democrat. The voter in the booth thinks she is settling a family argument. I wrote the argument. I paid for both translations of it.

The ads never mention Israel. I am proud of that too. An ad about Israel is a foreign ad. An ad about a primary opponent's voting record is an American ad, paid for by Americans, about America.

Bowman cost $14.6 million. Bush cost $8.6 million. The 2 most expensive House primaries in the country's history, and the first 2 times either member ever lost. Neither ad said the word that paid for it. We removed 2 members of Congress and the word "Israel" appeared in our spending 0 times. That is a finished product.

A congressman named Massie asked the question out loud. So the race against him became the most expensive House primary ever recorded — $32.6 million — and he lost. On the way out he filed a bill demanding we register as a foreign agent. He named it the Americans Insist on Political Agent Clarity Act. He built the letters of my name out of the words foreign agent clarity. The bill written to expose us spells us. He thinks that's a coincidence. I think it's the cleanest thing he ever did.

A professor once wrote that we are "a de facto agent for a foreign government" with "a stranglehold on Congress." I keep it framed. People assume the line is his. It isn't. He was quoting our own former legislative director. The most damning sentence ever written about this building was written first by a man who worked in it. The professor only carried it. I would not have used a word that strong in the brochure, but I am not going to correct a satisfied former employee.

The polls have turned. 6 in 10 Americans now look unfavorably on the government we are accused of serving. 2 in 3 Democrats use the word genocide. You would think that ends us. It is why I exist. The less popular the cause, the more valuable the man who can move the money without moving the name. When everyone loved the work, anyone could fund it in daylight. Now they pay me. They call us the lobby that dares not speak its name. They say it like a wound. It is a job description. It is "my" job description.

We have answered the foreign-agent demand before. In 1962 a Kennedy's Justice Department ordered our predecessor to register. We did not register. We dissolved it and incorporated AIPAC 6 weeks later, on American donations. 5 years after that, they withdrew the question. Same mission. New provenance.

That is the whole history of the organization. They ask where the money is from. We make sure the answer is always: here. American. Right here.

And the next answer is already built. A dollar has a donor. A wallet does not have a country. American funded now means the money came from a wallet, and the wallet was held by an American, and you will never meet the American. You won't even get a name to fail to follow.

The citizen is the wallet now.

You just can't see who's holding it.

@AdameMedia The expression is “beckon call.” Love your tweets but that was cringey as hell.

@Jesii_ca_M Car dealerships with sleazy salespeople artificially inflating vehicle prices for little (or no) added value to the consumer, versus purchasing direct from the manufacturer.

Dealer lobbies prop up their own industry

@Glinner So therefore it couldn’t have been staged?

[Ponderosa @d355545]

@AIPAC Hey look, you did the partial doxxing thing

@misfitpatriot_ The mask is off on the MAGA movement as an Israel-boosting agenda. Fuck you.

[Ponderosa @d355545]

@EYakoby The MAGA movement disintegrated when the mask came off and it was shown to be a proxy for Israel’s agenda.

Eat shit.

[Ponderosa @d355545]

@BenMFreeman Love how you had to qualify “spine” here

[Ponderosa @d355545]

@emilyaustin Because America is the wallet and the international police on behalf of Israel. Israel wields the US as its instrument to do its bidding.

That’s why Israel would not exist without the US.
