Note though that he very much is not against AIPAC or the slaughter they enable by buying politicians. He’s just against the bad PR at this specific moment
Rogers’ allies urged AIPAC to get involved without putting the group’s name front and center
Way to Streisand Effect the tactics AIPAC always use 😄
Rogers’ allies urged AIPAC to get involved without putting the group’s name front and center, people familiar with the talks told Axios.
One option: Directing AIPAC donors to a pro-Rogers super PAC instead of the group running its own ads, or a joint fundraising group the Rogers campaign has established with the national GOP.
Rogers’ team also proposed hiring AIPAC’s political strategists to help guide its effort.
But AIPAC officials weren’t satisfied: The group wanted a visible role in defeating El-Sayed and argued that because Rogers is strongly pro-Israel, El-Sayed would tie him to the pro-Israel lobbying group regardless.
It gets messy when you suck AIPAC/corporate cock.
I like how they are suggesting some shadey variation on money laundering.
“Well we could disguise the source of money by channeling it through an intermediary”
Like the scene from Office Space where they are reading the definition from a dictionary.
“SHH! Don’t say “Mike Rogers” and “AIPAC” together! We don’t want anyone to associate them! Quiet about that! People might put the two together and think something nefarious is going on!”
