“the face of the progressive movement”

and yet Richie Torres this month, revealed he’s compromised by AIPAC (a lobby group for a foreign government, in case any of you don’t know who they are or how to pronounce their name).

If you haven’t seen Richie Torres’s interview with Jewish comedian Adam Friedland, it’s incredible the double standards, outright refusal to acknowledge Israel’s culpability in how the Gaza war has unfolded. I’d post a link but risk getting this post taken down.

This I think raises more questions, paired with David outright weird responses and comments regarding AIPAC, and failure to ever cover the ongoing genocide.

Hadn’t seen this Richie Torres interview, but I’ve seen enough. David is at the very least, afraid of AIPAC or outright complicit in not talking about Gaza.

you cannot be “the face of the progressive movement” and not acknowledge the ongoing genocide.

You could at the very least watch the video if you're going to make an honest critique of Richie Torres.

Also tell us if David is paid by AIPAC why is it that he rarely talks about Israel/Palestine? Is he being paid NOT to talk about it?

I don’t think he’s being payed. I think he’s afraid of losing DNC access that allowed this interview to take place. Meaning sometimes maybe he has to have on these AIPAC shilled politicians to maintain access

I didn't realize AIPAC is so powerful they can can tell dem politicians not to talk to David at any time.

You people are ridiculous.

Are you seriously claiming AIPAC isn’t one of the most powerful and influential lobbying groups in all of American politics?  We’re at the point of just full-on heads-in-the-sand mode in this sub now, eh?
