DOJ Scrutinizes Foreign Interference, Ignores $60M in Plain Sight
The irony isn't just thick, it's practically a national monument. The DOJ, guardians of our 'free and fair' elections, apparently had time to investigate a candidate's endorsement from Jeremy Corbyn – a former leader of the UK Labour Party – as potential 'foreign interference.' One might applaud such vigilance, if it weren't for the glaring, taxpayer-funded elephant in every committee room. While
they were busy combing through old tweets, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) was legally funneling over $60 million into U.S. election campaigns in 2022 alone ( OpenSecrets.org ). This isn't 'interference,' of course; it's just 'lobbying.' How many 'foreign' endorsements does it take to equal tens of millions influencing policy outcomes? Apparently, the DOJ only sees the motes
in others' eyes, not the multi-million-dollar beams influencing Capitol Hill voting records on matters of war and peace.
