Hi there,

Today is Democracy Now!'s 29th anniversary. We don't belong to any corporation or government. We exist because of you. Thanks to you, we have gone to where the silence is for nearly 3 decades. As federal workers rally across the US today-250,000+ have been fired-we bring you the voices from the streets to the suites, from the courts to the Oval Office, flooding the zone with executive orders. You can count on Democracy Now! for daily global updates and deep dives—with voices you hear nowhere else. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today in honor of our 29th anniversary. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Democracy Now!

AIPAC Spending Millions to Unseat Progressive MO Congressmember Cori Bush

HeadlineAug 02, 2024

In other election news, progressive leaders are throwing their weight behind Missouri Congressmember Cori Bush ahead of her primary election next Tuesday, as the pro-Israel lobby group AIPAC is throwing millions of dollars to smear Cori Bush and fund her challenger, St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Wesley Bell. AIPAC’s super political action committee United Democracy Project already unseated another Squad member, New York’s Jamaal Bowman, earlier this primary season. Cori Bush has been an outspoken defender of Palestinian rights and against Israel’s war on Gaza.
