Maybe representatives should represent the needs of their constituents and not try to build a brand for themselves.

In part thanks to AIPAC.

Cori Bush—
- voted against Biden's infrastructure bill
- opposed sanctions on Russian oil tycoons 
- missed more votes than any other Congressman
- failed to pass a single piece of legislation
- just lost re-election

The Justice Department is currently investigating Bush over the potential misuse of funds for her personal security services.

Right. Because we all know money has absolutely no influence in politics and PACS exist solely to dump money into candidates for absolutely no reason.

Sure I agree with you, but she literally didn’t do her job. She’s also getting investigated by the justice department.

Israel spent almost 10 million dollars on attack ads to unseat her because she was one of the first members of Congress to call for a ceasefire. AIPAC and large corporations propped up her opponent (who was picked and vetted for the sole purpose of kicking her out of office) and illegally ran ads where they distorted her face to resemble a racist caricature. Anyone who paid any attention to that race at all knows that's why she lost.

A foreign genocidal government is using the US's own aid money to buy our elections while blowing up children every single day. Every rational person should find that disgusting.

I was hoping this wouldn’t happen. Because I really liked her. 😢😞

Yes, cease fire and we all agree with her, but she missed more votes than any other Congressman and she failed to pass a single piece of legislation.  What then?

RIP… she was such an icon 

But there are so many squad like congress people winning like this whole notion of “squad” is kinda outdated. 

Anyways it’s **** AIPAC for life for gaslighting voters into thinking they’re upgrading congress people
