Yes. John Hagee has been a notorious televangelist charlatan for decades and now he has a PAC that targets both wealthy Christians and Jews. Along with AIPAC, CUFI raises enough money to buy genocides.

I presume there are at least some Israelis who are opposed to genocide, right? Two or three at least?
As conservatives cheer.
Aren’t dancing bears a Russian thing?
It’s AIPAC.
Sorry, but why is the death count so high this time around?
If this was already covered in the article, please forgive me. I cannot read the article because I am illiterate, except for this paragraph which I have memorized.
Everyone calm down. It’s OK. He’s allowed to threaten rivals and get a slap on the wrist. He’s a good, god-fearing white conservative.
Yeah. It’s a spiral that our media culture seems perfectly engineered for.
Is this a headline from 2018?
So… Alabama admits they are completely incapable of processing voter registration applications? They processed these applications from non-citizens, registered them to vote in their system and issued voter registration cards to them. And now they are admitting their complete ineptitude at the very last minute.
And in a second phase of astonishing ineptitude, Alabama is now purging citizens who are legally permitted to vote. It really sounds like they need some compulsory federal oversight in their voter registration process!
Conservatives are just not good at governing.
Agreed! (Emphasis on the “greed”)
Do you have a source for this?
My understanding is the primary trade between the U.S and Israel is diamonds. We each export over $1B worth of diamonds and also each import over $1B worth of diamonds between one another. In the past year, the U.S. imported about half a billion dollars more from Israel than it exported to Israel (again mostly diamonds in both directions).
The diamond trade between our countries does not justify our participation in unnecessary wars (or genocides) in my opinion. It seems unlikely to be the reason we are so committed to this relationship. I think AIPAC’s financial involvement in our elections represents a much bigger reason we support Israel.
To be fair, they told him about this in dozens of briefings, but he was always distracted by his Happy Meal toy.
Typical GOP publicity stunt to build a conservative fanbase. He must be planning to run for office.
Is there a hot hole he won’t touch?
And why not? He has virtually unlimited U.S. weapons as well as bi-partisan support from U.S. politicians. It’s as though we’re just setting our attack dog loose on everyone.
It’s fucking astonishing that we have any relationship with Israel at all these days. The U.S. gets absolutely nothing out of this one-sided relationship.
Israel offers us:
-No unique strategic military position (we have that area covered already).
-No high-value industrial benefits (no natural resources or unique trade).
-No military arsenal or manpower support (their arsenal comes from us and their personnel is quite limited).
It’s time to let them make friends with their neighbors on their own. They don’t need us to do that and we sure as fuck don’t need them.
If he freezes up too long, the filibuster fails. I would pop popcorn for that.
Interesting question, JD.
