Any and every time anyone even remotely suggests criticism of AIPAC, their criticism is distorted into an antisemitic message. Yet consider the name behind the definition.

For 2 1/2 years we have been inundated by unproven claims that maybe Russia influenced our election via $100,000 worth of social media ads, half of which was spent after the election was over, half of which had no directly political content, the rest of which supported Trump and Hillary and Bernie and Jill Stein. Interestingly, it seems none supported Johnson. Even Russian trolls hate Libertarians. Which I consider to their credit.
