Track AIPAC (unofficial mirror) - Divisions by zero

This community is an unofficial mirror of TRACK AIPAC. I’ll be regularly adding more content as I have the time.
As context, their account was recently banned from Instagram (then restored), so I was motivated to repost their content to help it get some more visibility in the fediverse, and to serve as a backup of sorts.
Track AIPAC is a grassroots effort to reveal and counter the influence of AIPAC and the Israel lobby by systematically documenting their financial contributions to our federal officials. We support candidates who refuse support from the Israel lobby and champion a foreign policy based on human rights and international law.
We are working to end AIPAC and the Israel lobby’s stranglehold on American Democracy, as well as big money in politics as a whole. We call for AIPAC and other associated foreign lobbying groups to be forced to register with the Department of Justice under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) and we call on Congress to pass a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United.
