The KKK is known to put their public facing support towards those who they wanted to lose. That is at least before Trump gave their ideology enough cover to give real endorsements. I guess that's where we're heading with AIPAC
The best part about this is that their new policy will still bribe politicians with millions in cash, but will now enable those politicians to state they do NOT take PAC donations or money from AIPAC. They’re publicly stating they will do the same bribes behind closed doors now to give politicians cover on the incredibly unpopular policy of Israel First. Truly absurd.
Start the clock in January, Democrats will have 6 years maximum to legislate away the Citizens United loopholes and enaxt long-overdue court reform as well.
It's moderately sized deal. AIPAC actually only started doing direct contributions a couple of years ago; before that IIRC they had their members and subsidiary PACs give bribes donations instead. Still, presumably they made that switch for a reason, so backtracking like this is basically them admitting that nobody likes them. I'm admittedly not as sure about the endorsements part.

Recognizing that their brand is cancer, AIPAC halts public endorsements and traceable direct contributions to candidates
"as per executive order, we are now SuperIntelligencePAC"
Now they'll be secretly donating through subsidiaries and shell companies.
"We have examined our political impact, and discovered that we are just as toxic as the nation we represent."

In other words, they're going to hide their donations and influence from the public.
This. Their brand is toxic af. There will be other shell orgs dumping money in.
I suspect Chuck took them aside and said, “Fellas, we gotta work something else out here”
But yes. Donating via many individuals now, instead of as a PAC. Is what the PAC will be doing.
Yes, through individuals, but still doing via PACs but either a super PAC (United Democracy Project) or many smaller PACs with inconspicuous names.

Also, AIPAC is one of many pro-Israel PACs
JSTREET, JDCA, AIPAC, DMFI, JAC are some of the big ones.
So they're obfuscating it more now.
Task failed successfully. All donations now routed through proxy organizations. Initiate shadow war.

They still own Bari Weiss

Trump will veto for the next 2 years, but making him do that will help set the stage for a president who won't.
Well that's just too bad. I enjoyed watching them waste money while simultaneously telling me who not to vote for.
Is it because they know it would be akin to organizing deck chairs on the titanic or do they know the fix is in? 🤔
Nah, they've just realized that their brand is toxic with a lot of voters, so now they're going to be doing their 'donations' in secret.
Ahh so a rebrand is coming lol. AIPACv2 lol
All this means is they’re going to donate through Shell-PACs (donation made by “Totally-not-from-AIPAC-wink) to hide their direct influence.
Since disclosure laws only go one level deep, it’s trivial to do.
Because they see maga is starting to fail. They want to start bribing democrats now. But they know they can’t do that openly.
But they do contribute to Democratic candidates. They spent over 30 million just in Michigan against El Sayed.
This seems like a big deal in a good way

They're just gonna change the name and keep donating.
Excellent, keep it up forever please
Israel needs the money more for weapons
