Rashida Tlaib outraises entire Michigan congressional field

She's the only person in the country for people who support Palestine to donate their money to," Wayne County Commissioner and 13th District Democratic Party Chair Jonathan Kinloch tells Axios. "We don't have that kind of money in Detroit."

Wish there were more options...

Biden is really shooting himself in the foot, Michigan isn't the only state that feels this way, and most of them are ones Biden has to win to beat trump.

There's no reason for Dems to be running someone so unwavering in their support of a literally genocidal government

It's a bad situation for him, would he rather lose the support of American Arabs or American Jews? Throwing Israel under the bus would send a message to all of our allies that America will abandon them when it is politically expedient.
- So supporters of Palestine have to vote Biden anyways because trump is worse.
  But supporters of Israel need Biden to support a genocide or he'll lose their vote?
  Ever notice how it always works like that where neoliberal politicians are "forced" to move to the right but progressives get nothing?
  That shits tired. No one believes it anymore.
  Politicians like Biden want to move to the right. And take any opportunity to do so.
  That's not even getting I to how Jewish Americans do t always support Israels immoral acts just because they're Jewish
- Political expediency? Israel are the ones throwing Americans under the bus and not the other way around. It would be a golden beacon to the world that America still cares about human rights to defund Israel.
- Plenty of American Jews have stated they support Palestine. Didn't one of the founding members of AIPAC even state that what Isreal was doing kind of sketch?
  Seems less American Jews and more Israeli lobbying.

This lady speaks truth to power and isn't afraid to yell "We're going to impeach the motherfucker!" during her first week in office.

She has my full support.

The thing about giving her "more than she needs" is that she can then use it to fund other people who agree with her downticket or in other districts.

People like the Clintons and Kevin McCarthy got a lot of power in their parties by having a ton of cash to help out other candidates.

And Clinton infamously called in those favors in 2016.
Lots of money meant for down ballot races went straight to Hillary.
She launched a "joint fundraising" venture, but only 1% went to state parties, the rest went to Hillary

Meaning more republican senators and house members.
And people are still turned off from donating to the DNC
- I haven't donated to the DNC since that year yeah.
  But Tlaib is the farthest thing from the DNC right now, it's not the same thing.
