The DNC made clear today that all Democrats, including millions who are AIPAC members, have the right to participate fully in the Democratic process, and we plan to do just that," AIPAC spokesperson Deryn Sousa told ABC News.

All those AIPAC members can fuck off, their money is going toward perpetuating war and genocide.

Citizens United, and PACs in general, have done nothing but make this country's politics more and more toxic and here the DNC couldn't even pass a symbolic resolution against one of the worst of them.

Reagan and Citizens United continue to be the largest umbrellas of resulting bad policy in American history, imo.
