Unity tested: Democrats face off over Israel and AIPAC dark money during DNC meeting

Democrats are united in their opposition to President Donald Trump and his unprecedented second-term agenda.

But as the Democratic National Committee (DNC) huddles in New Orleans for its spring meeting, the party is once again coping with deep internal divisions over Israel's military actions and a powerful pro-Israel lobbying group's recent meddling in Democratic Party primaries.

The DNC's Resolutions Committee debated and held test votes Thursday on resolutions recognizing a Palestinian state, putting limits on military aid to Israel and taking aim at what one resolution calls the "growing influence" of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which is best known by its acronym AIPAC, and other so-called dark money groups.

Two resolutions on placing conditions on military aid to Israel and recognizing a Palestinian state were referred to the DNC's Middle East Working Group. The resolution calling out AIPAC was defeated after the Resolutions Committee passed a broader resolution targeting all dark money groups. The nonbinding resolutions were among more than 100 on a range of issues that are being considered.

The resolutions were the latest face-off between DNC leaders who support Israel and a growing base of progressives who give Israel a thumbs down. One DNC committee member, speaking anonymously, called the resolutions "problematic" for the party.

The potential for divisive dialogue and verbal explosions over these issues comes eight months after similar showdowns at the DNC's 2025 summer meeting in Minneapolis.

AIPAC isn’t Dark Money. It is right there in the open. The boys in the Media like to push their own agenda and shape the conversation. Fox is Dark Money, as all the main stream media is.

AIPAC took out squad members Jamaal Bowman and Corrie Bush. It is a real threat to the DSA.

Really? I thought they'd pretty much decided to hate Israel.
