It’s more than weird. This is a national security issue. Two rumors are circulating regarding 0uR grEaTesT aLLy! The first is that the shutdown is pure theater…Mike “Mr peepers” Johnson is in ZERO rush to open up the government because he would have to swear in rep Grijalva who vowed to be the tie breaking vote to release the Epstein files. And the second rumor involves Israel bugging trumps motorcade. He has confided to some he is in fear of what they could do to him!

@RepThomasMassie

Contrary to what he says, @SpeakerJohnson is doing everything he can, including delaying the swearing in of the most recently elected member of Congress and spreading misinformation about the legislation, to block a vote in Congress on legislation to release the Epstein files.

So why don’t the Dems vote to reopen the Gov if they want to vote to release the Epstein files ? It both parties don’t want to vote for it then it doesn’t matter if the government is open or not

AIPAC donated 50 million to candidates and 125 million total in 2024. Kamala spent 2,000 million. Trump about 1,000 million. And you are worried over Jews in America donating 50+ million?

Paranoid about Jews?

Massie, like MTG, is a clickbait politician.

Well, you don’t have to subject yourself to that type of thing either. You could just maintain your dignity and not solicit donations from AIPAC. 🙄

Every single one.

Gaetz also said while he was in Israel, someone was in his room when he went back unexpectedly rummaging through his belongs.

That's okay with you?

I guarantee you wouldn't have been okay with it if that happened to a Republican visiting Russia.

Here is an insight into why AIPAC is necessary for Jewish survival in Israel:
A poem by Nahman Bialik, written in response to the 1903 Kishinev pogrom -applies to today with Hamas as it did in the early 1900’s:
Excerpts from “In the City of Slaughter”
The Call to Witness the Atrocity:

Arise and go now to the city of slaughter;
Into the courtyards enter, and with thine eyes
Behold, and with thine hand touch on the fences
And on the trees and on the mural clay
The spattered blood and dried brains of the dead.
...
Go to the ruins, to the gaping breaches,
To walls and hearths, shattered as though by thunder:
A black, naked brick in the darkness concealing
Has embedded itself deeply, like a crushing crowbar,
And those holes are like black wounds,
For which there is no healing or doctor.

Take a step, and your footstep will sink: you have placed your foot in fluff,
Into fragments of utensils, into rags, into shreds of books:
Bit by bit they were amassed through arduous labor—and in a flash,
Everything is destroyed...

The Condemnation of Passivity (The most controversial part):

Descend then, to the cellars of the town,
There where the virginal daughters of thy folk were fouled,
Where they profaned the bodies of our sisters,
The sons of wolves with eyes of lust and greed;
And thou shalt see no terror in the cave,
No human shame, no human cry of pain,
No moan of outraged mother or shamed daughter,
Only the shadow of a wall, where crouched
The husbands, bridegrooms, brothers, peering from the cracks,
Watching the sacred bodies struggling underneath
The bestial breath,
Stifled in filth, and swallowing their blood!

Such silence will take hold of thee, thy heart will fail
With pain and shame, yet I
Will let no tear fall from thine eye.
Though thou wilt long to bellow like the driven ox...

The Cry to Heaven and the Assertion of Meaninglessness:

See, see, the slaughtered calves, so smitten and so laid;
Is there a price for their death? How shall that price be paid?
Forgive, ye shamed of the earth, yours is a pauper-Lord!
...
And neither I nor you
Know why you died or wherefore, for whom, nor by what laws;
Your deaths are without reason; your lives are without cause.
...
Let fists be flung like stone
Against the heavens and the heavenly Throne!


That is why the AIPAC Lobbyists are trying to inform anyone who will listen, especially Congresscritters.

My point is they talk shit after they get out of office, but they are dramatically quiet while they are getting bought at auction.

Am I devoted to the Israeli lobby? Nope. I like the country because they dont take crap from the Arabs.

I think the Israel lobby plays the evangelical right in this country like a fiddle. And it’s so obvious I don’t really understand how they don’t see it.

AIPAC is fully American funded. There are many country centric American funded lobbies like the Cuban American National Foundation,, the Armenian National Committee, the Taiwanese-American and even the Korea Society. Support their causes and receive their donations. Seek to weaken their countries or support their enemies and expect their funding go to your political opponent.
