AIPAC is seemingly prepared to support the Republican candidate for the Michigan Senate race ...

Posted on August 6, 2026 at 05:25:48 PM by Cutter

This organization is seemingly willing to support the Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate with millions of dollars of advertisements.

Let that statement sink in as this country slowly spirals into authoritarianism under the Donald Trump-led GOP.

Back to the board

As a Jew who is moderate on Israel (supports its right to exists, hates all the right wing parties), I find AIPAC unamerican as hell. Anyone else have a similar viewpoint?* - By plisar August 6, 2026 at 03:57:22 PM
- Disagree (though our views on Israel are likely pretty simiar) Three AIPAC points: - By onb August 6, 2026 at 07:04:24 PM

  - J Street was founded to be a more progressive pro-Israel PAC. AIPAC has always leaned right. - By GritsGoBlue August 6, 2026 at 06:04:05 PM

- AIPAC is fine in concept (it's mainly funded by American Jews) but it has become so toxic that Democrats should run away from it. - By GritsGoBlue August 6, 2026 at 04:53:59 PM
- Strongly dislike their viewpoints, but as an org they are way more American in principle than, for example, the saudi lobby... - By Cap August 6, 2026 at 04:28:09 PM
- Hate Netanyahu, as most of my family in Israel does. He is the worst autocrat. Don't give an f about AIPAC one way or the other, but resent any suggestion that Jews are someonehowe wrong to put their money behind their political beliefs, whether it be Soros, Adelson or AIPAC donors.* - By Josh August 6, 2026 at 04:21:20 PM
  - Largely agree, I wish Democrats would do a better job of point out the issue is Netanyahu. But AIPAC's stated mission is lobbying for Pro-Israel policies. I don't like any foreign government spending that kind of money to influence our elections.* - By gbmcq August 6, 2026 at 04:35:24 PM
    - Its American Jewish money, not Israeli money. Psalm 135: "If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget its skill!"- its a Bibilcal precept that Jews did not have to foreswear upon coming through Ellis island.* - By Josh August 6, 2026 at 05:00:12 PM

- Isn’t this the mainstream position amongst most Jewish people in the US? Every Jewish person that I know thinks the same thing.* - By crumbs August 6, 2026 at 04:09:18 PM
  - I'll be accused again of being antisemitic, but, yeah, it's a majority, but there are the MAGA Jewish ppl who do not feel that way at all (nm) - By danny August 6, 2026 at 04:18:25 PM
    - Wouldn't it roughly track with reform, conservative and orthodox?* - By LewisBullox August 6, 2026 at 04:21:21 PM

        Claude says that in 2024, Orthodox was 74% for Trump, Conservative 25%, and Reform 16%, so you were right (nm) - By danny August 6, 2026 at 04:30:40 PM
        
        Not a major difference though between the two like you said.* - By LewisBullox August 6, 2026 at 04:48:16 PM

        Yeah I can see how that would be a tough one. I'm also sure there are plenty of MAGAts support Israel for historical geopolitical reasons (or those who believe in biblical prophecy) and in their personal life are antisemitic.* - By LewisBullox August 6, 2026 at 04:49:51 PM
        
        For sure (nm) - By danny August 6, 2026 at 04:56:53 PM
