NY Times has a lengthy puff piece on Rahm Emanuel (not linking), and the absurd idea that he might run for president. The back story is that Emanuel is acting as a cutout for Hakeem Jeffries in raisng money from wealth right wing donors. I think I can guess which donors. #USpol #Aipac

Many of the “Michigan Jewish Dems” Backing Mike Rogers Are Actually Already Republican Supporters, Analysis Finds A close look at the signatories reveals many have been involved in past GOP efforts—including “Jews For Mitt” in 2012. https://www.dropsitenews.com/p/michigan-jewish-democrats-mike-rogers Sep 17, 2026 Over 400 alleged #Michigan #Jewish #Democratic and independent voters signed a pledge in late August to vote for #Republican #US Senate candidate Mike Rogers, igniting a controversy and generating questions about whether Democratic nominee #AbdulElSayed was losing critical support among a group that typically votes blue by about a 2:1 ratio. But a #DropSiteNews review of signatories in the “Michigan Jews Against Extremism” campaign finds many of the Jewish community leaders involved have deep ties to the #GOP, as well as to pro-#Israel activist groups such as #AIPAC. Nearly 50 were involved in a nearly identical gambit in 2012 named “Jews for Mitt.” #SanctionIsrael #news #politics #USpol #Palestine

Columbia University paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to pro-Israel organizations while cracking down on pro-Palestine activism on campus, according to an investigation by The Intercept based on the university’s financial filings. During the fiscal year ending June 2024, Columbia paid $100,000 to the Israel on Campus Coalition, $75,000 to AIPAC’s charitable arm, and $450,000 to the United Jewish Appeal Federation of New York. Over the past decade, Columbia paid more than $250,000 to AIPAC’s charitable arm. No comparable payments to Palestinian, Arab, or Muslim organizations appeared in the filings reviewed by The Intercept. The payments came as Columbia suspended Students for Justice in Palestine and Jewish Voice for Peace, dismantled Gaza solidarity encampments, and brought police onto campus to arrest protesters. #Israel #Palestine #Gaza #AIPAC #Palestinian

Israel has long relied on an informal lobbying network made up of American citizens and organizations such as AIPAC and CUFI. Now, the Israeli government is employing foreign agents to target specific demographic groups with greater precision and speed. The Israeli government has spent more than $1 billion on public diplomacy since October 7, 2023, and that spending is expected to double. Its efforts focus on evangelicals, conservatives, and young Americans through tactics such as paying social media influencers directly, funding large-scale text messaging campaigns, and hiring companies to build networks of websites designed to influence how AI chatbots respond to questions about and portray Israel.

So y'all, #Section219 of the #NDDA passed the #House. The #Senate has their own version. Section 219 would require the secretary of defense to designate an “executive agent” at the Pentagon, tasked only with cooperation with #Israel. The technology domains named in the bill include data sharing, missile defense, counter-drone systems, cyber capabilities, artificial intelligence, quantum technologies, directed-energy weapons, biotechnology, and defense manufacturing. The bill also includes another $750 million for U.S.-Israel cooperative programs, according to #AIPAC, which sponsored the legislation. Those sums come on top of an existing 10-year agreement that provides Israel $3.3 billion per year in direct military financing plus $500 million annually for missile defense cooperation through 2028. This, at the same time the #Pentagon has declared Israel a "critical threat". So long American sovereignty. It was kinda crap while it lasted, to be fair. https://www.military.com/pentagon-raises-israeli-spy-threat-as-ndaa-seeks-deeper-defense-ties

The house had passed the 1.15 trillion NDAA, including deepening ties with Israel and they did it with Democrat support. "This is the dumb trick the Dem Party has been using on their followers for years now. When something they pretend to oppose “must pass” (like the NDAA), they ensure there are just enough Dem votes for it to pass, even if it’s just by one vote."
