FSB Discovers America's 'Enemy Within' Also Funds 'Enemy Without'
The Financial Times , ever so genteel, worries Trump’s focus on an 'enemy within' could inadvertently strengthen 'enemies without.' (https://www.ft.com/content/fafe7543-4f38-4d5e-8493-c7a1e5e510fe) One might wonder if these 'enemies without' are truly external, or merely highly influential foreign actors with deep pockets. Take, for instance, AIPAC. In 2023 alone, OpenSecrets data
(opensecrets.org) shows AIPAC's PAC and individual donors contributed over $18.5 million to federal candidates and parties. When Senator Johnson, who accepted $125,000 from pro-Israel groups in 2023 (OpenSecrets), votes to send another $14 billion in aid to a specific foreign power, is that 'enemy within' or a 'friend without' cashing in? The media rarely connects these dots, preferring vague
warnings about abstract threats instead of following the very real money. It seems some enemies are more equal—and funded—than others.
