AIPAC basically admits buying Kentucky and Georgia elections

The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) has basically admitted buying both the Kentucky and Georgia Primary elections.

In Kentucky, Republican Thomas Massie lost to fellow Republican and former Navy SEAL Ed Gallrein.

Trump made the fight personal. He had promised retribution against several Republicans, including Massie, over the Epstein files, US support for Israel, and battles over spending.

Until this week, Kentucky voters had routinely elected Massie with around 30 percentage points.

Clay Fuller won Georgia’s 14th Congressional District. He beat nine other candidates to secure a spot in the November general election. Fuller won a previous election in April to serve the remainder of former US Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s 2025-27 term. Greene resigned after a spat with Donald Trump.

AIPAC and unapologetic Zionists

Both winners are unapologetic Zionists.

Thomas Massie never took a penny from the Zionist Lobby. Ed Gallrein, on the other hand, has benefited from over $15m of the super PAC’s funding.

Trump mega-donors and AIPAC donated millions of dollars to oust Massie. It was the most ever spent on a House primary race – all because Massie stood up to Trump on Gaza and Epstein.

In Georgia, Clay Fuller has been repeatedly endorsed by both AIPAC and pro-Israel publications.

AIPAC said in its endorsement:

Voters in Georgia’s heavily Republican 14th District now have the opportunity to elect a representative who reflects the values of thousands of pro-Israel Georgians and understands the importance of the U.S.-Israel partnership in making America safer, stronger, and more prosperous.

It appears that AIPAC is not even attempting to hide its influence on US politics anymore.

AnTIseMiTisM

Obviously, to even suggest that Israel may be influencing US politics is AnTIseMiTisM.

The reality is, though, that what Israel wants, Israel gets.

Trump bangs on about making America great again. Yet AIPAC having so much control over the US government is literally the opposite of America First.

To make matters worse, Trump said out loud:

I’m right now at 99% in Israel. I could run for prime minister, so maybe after I do this, I’ll go to Israel and run for prime minister.

Trump has a higher approval rating in Israel than he does in the US.

Maybe he should go try ‘Make Israel Great Again’ – which is impossible for a genocidal settler state. And would start by calling it Palestine.

Epstein class

It’s also no surprise that both Thomas Massie and Marjorie Taylor Greene were fierce advocates of releasing the Epstein files. Of course, that was a huge problem for Trump and his pedo-pals.

Standing up to the Epstein class was always going to upset the rich and powerful.

Imagine if we swapped the word ‘Israel’ with literally any other country. Russia? China? North Korea? There would be an absolute meltdown across the media and political class. So why is Israeli influence in US politics now the norm?
