NEWS ALERT  APRIL 10, 2026  WORDS MATTER Elissa Slotkin warns against equating Jewish donors with ‘Israel lobby’ ‘Saying Jewish donors are somehow the same as "pro-Israel lobby," I got a problem with that, and not just as an elected official, as a Jew,’ Slotkin said in response to a question at a town hall By Gabby Deutch Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) has lately been saying that she does not take money from AIPAC or any corporate political action committees. So when a college student asked her at a town hall in Cincinnati on Thursday about $4.5 million she has received from “pro-Israel lobbies,” Slotkin pushed back — arguing the student was unfairly lumping together all Jewish donors.  “I’m not sure what you’re referring to on ‘not AIPAC but the Israel lobby.’ If you’re equating ‘Israel lobby’ to Jews, I got a problem with that,” Slotkin said.  At the end of the event, she stood by her response to the question when asked about it by another attendee. “What I take issue with is someone saying that I took $4.5 million from the pro-Israel lobby. That’s not AIPAC. I don’t know what that is,” she said. “But if that’s counting Jewish donors and saying Jewish donors are somehow the same as ‘pro-Israel lobby,’ I got a problem with that, and not just as an elected official, as a Jew.”  READ THE FULL REPORT →  STORIES YOU MAY HAVE MISSED Tucker Carlson’s personal ratings nosedive, as Trump slams his former ally A new YouGov poll finds the far-right podcaster with worsening favorability rating among Republicans, and widespread unpopularity with the American public By Josh Kraushaar READ MORE →  Josh Shapiro suggests Israel pressured Trump into Iran war ‘We should never, ever be bullied, as maybe President Trump was, by any other world leader,’ the Pennsylvania governor said on the ‘All-In Podcast’ By Gabby Deutch READ MORE →  Brad Lander declines to say whether he still supports missile-defense funding for Israel Lander supported Iron Dome funding when running for mayor, but as he vies for far-left support in primary against Rep.
