You’re conflating two things, and maybe it’s a joke and I missed the punchline. Aipac is a national jewish interest lobby group. The US also sends billions of tax payer dollars to Israel.
They’re also by wealthy American zionists which gives them some cover.
It still doesn’t make sense why any politician can accept money from a lobby group whose only goal is to send Americans’ money to a foreign country that continually spies on America.
Aren’t donations by AIPAC really foreign interference?
No, it’s domestic. The US gives Israel money, not the other way around.
Israel then uses some of that money for AIPAC bribes. AIPAC doesnt report who donates to it.
Yep, so it’s domestic (with extra steps)

So there’s actually people who aren’t Israeli citizens giving money to AIPAC?
Israel doesn’t have a sustainable economy. They only stay afloat from US giving them money
They also stay afloat via dual citizenship — it’s often Israeli citizens who live in other countries who give them money.
Yes, but they filter/wash the money through “local donations” so it’s not Israel giving the money, it’s “Jewish Americans”

It is fundamentally a terrible idea that politicians are allowed to accept money from any lobbying group.
There is a term for this: corruption—and corruption is never in the public interest.
Don’t forget the active genocide, pillaging and rape of a sovereign nation.
Now you’re getting it.
Yep and paid using our tax dollars. We give billions to Israel and they have free Healthcare and education things we don’t have here. It’s fucked up.
