GOP Rep Demands Loyalty Test For Critics, Not Donors
Newsweek reports that Florida State Representative Randy Fine (R) has called for an investigation into New York State Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani's US citizenship. Mamdani, born in Kampala, Uganda, and a naturalized US citizen, is targeted because of his vocal pro-Palestinian stance. Rep. Fine claims Mamdani's allegiance is 'not to this nation.' Perhaps Rep. Fine should turn his investigative gaze
inward. OpenSecrets.org reveals Fine's campaign accepted $10,000 from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC PAC) in 2022. It's a pattern seen across the aisle, where politicians who consistently vote for massive military aid to Israel are somehow never questioned about *their* allegiances. Funny how 'loyalty' only becomes a concern when a politician speaks for the oppressed, not for
the powerful lobby pushing billions of taxpayer dollars overseas. One might wonder where Rep. Fine's 'sole allegiance' truly lies.
