MASSIE: “AIPAC has transitioned into a confrontational lobbying group where if you don't do what they want, they come after you … All the money we give to Israel is military money. So they are basically lobbyists for the military industrial complex.”

@RepThomasMassie Does he know what 'existential' means?

@RepThomasMassie Massie’s got a point—AIPAC does play hardball, and the military aid angle is worth discussing. @Michael_ReedSEA might argue markets don’t care, but the lobbying pressure is real.

What a shame. Trump to pump more money into the very thing that has bankrupted us ... The military-industrial complex.

Whether you are Republican or Democrat, vote for the one who has not taken AIPAC money. Not if they are Israel first‼️

War is a money racket, lobbyists for the Military Industrial Complex are wearing out the carpets in Brussels, promoting War, promoting Death. Why is ugly, War is stupid, so why are our Politicians promoting War..? What happened to our desire for Peace...?

Thomas Massie just exposed a tactic lobbyists use to control Congress. "A lobbyist can't buy me food, but I can go to launch, pick up the tab, and the lobbyist can write me a $5,000 check to my campaign, and then my campaign can pay for the food." "The lobbyists, when they give you money, ostensibly they're not giving you their money. They're not even giving you their corporation's money. They are giving you money from employees of that corporation who have pooled their money into a club or a group. And they've been persuaded maybe by their management that they should give a little back to this because their job would be more secure if they supported their lobbying efforts in D.C." I can't even pretend to be surprised anymore. Congress is the den of liars and thieves.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇱 When asked why they never criticize Israel, AIPAC gave one answer: we just do what the Israeli government tells us to do. Former AIPAC member Richard Forer says Congress isn't ignorant about what Israel has been doing. They are WILLFULLY ignorant because they are terrified of losing AIPAC funding, with a lobbyist assigned to virtually every member of Congress. "They are seduced by money. Money is the key to staying in office."

When people say "The Israel Lobby" they don't just mean AIPAC although many refer to "AIPAC" for short. Not all the interests in the lobby are even Jewish. The Christian Zionist lobby is powerful. Not to mention the Military Industrial Lobby. Powerful coalition.

Kevin Hart: "I don't want it all. I don't want all the f*cking money. It's boring having money by yourself. You do sh*t and nobody else can do it with you. They can't come. So if you don't create things for people to roll with you, it's lonely there."

"I think we need to give the Gulf states more credit. This is not simply Saudi, Qatari or Emirati money pumping billions into Washington and buying people. It is not like that. If you are MAGA, if you believe in America First, the Gulf lobby’s narrative resonates. It says: we want stability, we want growth, we will put money into your economy, and we will allow your companies to come over and make money in the Gulf and the wider region. The Gulf states are willing to underwrite American policies. After all, all the bases in the Gulf are paid for by the locals, by the Gulfies. They are not paid for by US taxpayers. The Gulf states are willing to buy American jets and weapons. They are injecting cash into American AI companies. They are willing to support American power where they can. They are net contributors to American power By contrast, Israel is a net consumer of US power. It drains US power. It sucks money out of the US economy and from US taxpayers."

.President Donald J. Trump: “We have defense companies that were making a fortune buying back stock with all their money, and then they come to us for money if we want to buy something and we want to have plants built, and they said, ‘could you loan us the money?’... So I'm not letting them do it.”
