White House Press Secretary SLAMS Cori Bush

"White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre slammed Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) over a rant in which she vowed to AIPAC “I’m coming to tear your kingdom down.”

Bush was defiant after she lost her Democratic primary Tuesday night, lashing out at the lobbying group in her speech:

But all they did was radicalize me, and so now they make me afraid. See, now they are about to see this other Cori, this other side, because let me say this, I just grew up a whole lot more over the last few weeks – just grew up a whole different way. And so what they are about to get, they think… I don’t think that anything, there is nothing that happens in my life that happens in vain. So this happened, it’s because it was meant to happen. And let me say, it’s because of the work that I need to do. And let me say this: AIPAC, I’m coming to tear your kingdom down."

As a Canadian, I can’t understand how Americans can allow corporate money in elections

[jonbeltrami]

I would argue that a foreign government being able to donate to US politicians is far more

[lornahuddleston]

AIPAC must be outlawed. U.S. should not be issuing passports to people who already have Israeli passports, and visa versa. Conflict of interest. We need to stand up to Bibi and make sure he understands that Israel is NOT the 51 State.

[Shad]

Good for Cori, she said the forbidden thing . Let’s get AIPAC and let’s go after all of them supporting Netanyahu.

[GelgoogJ]

You will never hear a word from this new dude if he wins the seat. He will fade into the background and become another forgotten yes man for the establishment. What a waste of a seat.

[Jerusalem-uk]

Yes he's right free America from AIPAC

[FDR_progressive_liberal]

I'm sick of being ruled from Israel.

[derrickrobbins]

They have a disturbing habit of targeting black politicians. I see you AIPC

[Mapes]

Francesca, you nailed it! The $$$$ are ridiculous. My head and heart ache at the loss of Bowman and Bush. Wake up folks! We will have to take to the streets in large numbers to stop the inhumanity of Palestine. Peace. KJP .. just smh. I am so sad for her.

[cosmocato]

Inflammatory and divisive is not acceptable!!! But genocidal is

[TheMartuco]

We need to take money out of politics! #stopthegenocide

[zartanicus]

If the public supported Israel,
there would be no need to pay politicians to do so.

[HScarlet]

So AIPAC can be racist towards her with the photoshoped image, but she can't call them out?

[AaronWaring]

I live in her district and honestly even tho SOME of her policies were amazing, she was just too divisive. Money didn't have anything to do with her losing. At the end of the day the constituents make up their own mind and she was just too much for a lot of us

[debbiedoodiedandi]

Sadly, less than 150k voted in her primary race

[briafx]

Cori Bush is 100% right kjp better sit this one out

[howardmctroy]

Has it ever occurred to you that Cori Bush has a level of volatility to her? And that maybe this, along with her massive spending on private security while also hypocritically deriding the notion of armed public safety officers, made her seem unserious and stupid?

[yd]

I have disliked Karen Jean Pierre ever since she was a contributor for MSNBC. Too bad she didn’t prove me wrong.

[Owen]

You know, why not just make Netanyahu president of the US? It seems the government cares more about Israel than its own people so yea, just give your country to them already and be done with it.

[cherryblossom]

Why would she have to listen to anything anymore. Shes not in congress go.
