The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) has spent more than $24 million to defeat progressive candidates in this year's Democratic primaries.
The United Democracy Project (UDP), an AIPAC-affiliated super PAC, has already spent $24.2 million on Democratic primaries this cycle, including millions that it raised from top Republican megadonors like Paul Singer and Bernard Marcus. The money has helped AIPAC-backed candidates wipe out progressives in primaries in Michigan, Maryland, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Texas, California and Ohio.
UDP and other pro-Israel groups tied to AIPAC – Democratic Majority for Israel (DMFI), Urban Empowerment Action PAC and Pro-Israel America PAC — spent more than $10 million combined in three Michigan primaries, The Intercept reported, to defeat progressive candidates, including last week's loss for Rep. Andy Levin, D-Mich., who has been called the most progressive Jewish member of the House.
"I'm really Jewish," Levin, a former synagogue president, told MSNBC last week. "But AIPAC can't stand the idea that I am the clearest, strongest Jewish voice in Congress standing for a simple proposition: that there is no way to have a secure, democratic homeland for the Jewish people unless we achieve the political and human rights of the Palestinian people."
UDP spent more than $4 million on ads opposing Levin and backing his opponent, Rep. Haley Stevens, D-Mich., after they both opted to run in the state's 11th District following redistricting. Stevens on Tuesday defeated Levin, 60-40.

And half of republicans apparently...
The Democrats have a viable strategy that depending on where you live, you’re better off registering as a member of the opposition party to vote for the weaker candidate in the primary and then vote against them in the general election.
AIPAC is not pro-American group. Their goal is a ‘Jewish’ version of America’s sick perverted mass media culture. Don’t be fooled.
that’s right. AIPAC is not a Republican group. another fake media lie and a smear of AIPAC.
FWLIW I am a proud member of the LGBFJB community.
I don’t see that at all. This is precisely why the R voter registrations are growing in FL, NV, PA, AZ, and NC relative to Ds. D registration growth has utterly stopped except for CA, OR, DEL, and maybe IL though we can’t track a couple of states cuz they don’t register by party.
They “look” like they are leading cuz the media gives them all the attention, but so far D turnout is trailing Rs in almost every primary so far.
Dishonest headline. Must be MSM.
Believe me, I hope you’re right.
You’re right. He had this to say “unless we achieve the political and human rights of the Palestinian people”
It was John Brennan of the CIA I was thinking about, not the head of the FBI, some of them have likely been/are communist too.
