Israel is putting $95 Million into AIPAC to influence the upcoming US midterms. What's the bets PAL PAC gets called out as 'foreign interference instead?
AIPAC has a new opponent in Washington: PAL PAC.

Here are PAL PAC's first four endorsements in Congress (with more to come):
– Rashida Tlaib
– Delia Ramirez
– Summer Lee
– Ilhan Omar

Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

When I got the contract to write a history of concentration camps in 2014, I hoped to keep the US from ending up here. That didn't work out! But now it's critical to understand how much is already in process and the enormity of what's coming. The sooner we act to stop it, the more people we'll save.
