Hey Tim, regarding Political Suicide: Any story about the 16th CD primary should include the fact that AIPAC invested 13 million dollars in defeating Bowman. Especially as a Never Trump former Republican, you should have noted that AIPAC has supported pro Israel Maga candidates and is a powerful supporter of Netanyahu and his extremist right wing government.

AIPAC is supported by a politically diverse range of candidates, including many well within the Democratic PartyтАЩs mainstream, because support for Israel generally is a mainstream political position in this country. Bowman didnтАЩt commit political suicide because he triggered MAGA to target him with his positions towards 10/7 and Hamas. He committed political suicide by being way outside the American political mainstream. This attempt to tie AIPAC opposition to him to MAGA perfectly illustrates WHY Tim shouldnтАЩt bring up bogus narratives solely to soothe your hurt feelings when an extremist clown gets crushed for being so far outside the political mainstream.

IтАЩm sure Tim can speak for himself about these valid points, but IтАЩve heard him address same in some pods, just so you know he hasnтАЩt missed anything.
