Despite the influx of pro-Israel campaign funding to the tune of $60 by some accounts to Zionist Haley Stevens' campaign, Dr. Abudl El Sayed prevailed in the Democratic primary race in Michigan. The victory suggests that the people want anti-establishment candidates who want to fight for people, not donors or the military-industrial complex. 

Voters want to stop sending our tax money to support genocide and apartheid in Palestine. They question why so much money goes to a country in the face of human rights violations and even though the majority of the electorate is against it. The mainstream media won't focus on the groundswell of scrutiny over our relationship with Israel and how our unequivocal support has led to a genocide before our eyes.
