NEW: Seth Moulton becomes the first candidate in a Democratic primary for Senate to officially announce that he will return and henceforth reject donations from AIPAC

Seth for
Massachusetts
I am returning AIPAC donations and refusing to accept any donations or support from them. The FEC filing I made yesterday reflects that we are returning donations. Below is my statement explaining why:
I'm cautiously optimistic that the recent breakthrough in Gaza will move us closer to ending the horrific violence in the region. A political resolution that allows Israelis and Palestinians to live side by side in peace is exactly the kind of framework I've been calling for from the beginning.
I support Israel's right to exist, but l've also never been afraid to disagree openly with AIPAC when I believe they're wrong.
In recent years, AIPAC has aligned itself too closely with Prime Minister Netanyahu's government. I'm a friend of Israel, but not of its current government, and AlPAC's mission today is to back that government. I don't support that direction. That's why l've decided to return the donations I've received and will not be accepting their support.

Governor JB Pritzker @govpritzker.illinois.gov · 10h

Today, I convened a group of former military generals and veterans to hear perspectives on deploying troops in American cities.

Their commitment is to our nation. That’s why they’re speaking out against what the President's doing as uncalled-for, unprecedented, and un-American.

you guys know how a defining trademark of right wing law making for the last 30 years has been to file countless lawsuits in state/fed courts that challenge basically every single civil gain of the last century while also suing the government every time it convicts them of an flagrantly illegal act

I mean... as funny as it is, he's on video throwing the sandwich directly at a uniformed LEO. That kind of thing would get you arrested and charged under pretty much any administration.

I get why his attorneys are filing the motion, though. I just think it's not going to work.

Zoe Tillman @zoetillman.bsky.social · 10h

The DC man charged for throwing a sandwich at a federal agent is seeking to have the case dismissed as a “vindictive” and “selective” prosecution.

On the historically hard-to-win defense strategy that's also surfaced in cases against James Comey and Kilmar Abrego Garcia:

I lean towards it being a fic and not a mad libs name change of the original fantasy because of the writing style having a lot of really obvious fic markers

it is good enough on its own merits I very much wish that it hadn't been mentioned as "the Harry Potter fic that was turned into a book" bc I literally cannot unsee the dna
