AIPAC Spent Millions in Michigan and Still Lost

A major Michigan primary result is raising new questions about AIPAC, political lobbying, Israel policy, and where American voters are moving heading into the midterms.

In this episode, Nate Cornacchia reacts to Abdul El Sayed defeating Haley Stevens and explains why he believes the result could represent a broader backlash against AIPAC influence, corporate lobbying, and establishment political funding. Nate discusses Haley Stevens, Donald Trump, Fox News, criticism of Abdul El Sayed, political rhetoric surrounding Israel, and examples discussed in the episode of politicians reconsidering their relationship with AIPAC. He also examines whether opposition to foreign lobbying is becoming a larger issue across both Republican and Democratic politics. The political conclusions and disputed claims discussed throughout the episode reflect Nate’s commentary and opinions.

Why This Matters
