Across Illinois and throughout the country, the movement to reject AIPAC is strong. We won’t be deterred, nor will we be intimidated by AIPAC, its allies’, and other corporate interests’ anti-democratic tactics. Just days before the election, a group of voters was arrested at AIPAC’s Chicago office while demanding answers about the millions it spent to influence Illinois’ congressional primaries. And AIPAC’s chosen candidates flopped badly in IL-07 and IL-09. Their movement is flailing; ours is just getting started.

We were proud to support Illinois State Senator and IfNotNow member @RobertJPeters throughout his inspiring, grassroots campaign in IL-02. His progressive vision for justice, dignity, and shared safety was so threatening to AIPAC and special interests that they poured millions into his race—outspending him 11 to 1. We know State Senator Peters will continue to be our partner in building a thriving future for all—our neighbors, ourselves, Palestinians, and Israelis.

The primary results in Illinois expose AIPAC for what it is: an anti-democratic sinking ship, desperately throwing money at a rapidly-shifting electorate. If AIPAC's pro-war, pro-billionaire agenda were truly popular, it would not have to funnel millions of dollars into Democratic primaries through anonymous shell PACs.

We worked hard, organized, and built a big coalition, but we couldn’t compete with the millions of dollars from Trump-aligned super PACs in this race. We may have lost this battle, but we're going to keep fighting until we beat Trump and build a better world that we know is possible. Congratulations, Commissioner Miller, on your victory. I look forward to working with you to fight on behalf of the communities of the 2nd District.

BREAKING: An immigration judge has ordered Leqaa Kordia’s release exactly one year after she was abducted by ICE—but there’s no guarantee the government will actually let her go.

“The Voice of Hind Rajab” is nominated for best international feature, but actor Motaz Malhees can't attend the #Oscars due to Trump's travel ban on Palestine. “I am not allowed to enter the United States because of my Palestinian citizenship. It hurts. But here is the truth You can block a passport. You cannot block a voice," Malhees writes. "I am Palestinian, and I stand with pride and dignity. My spirit will be with the ‘Voice of Hind Rajab’ that night. Good luck to all of you. Our story is bigger than any barrier, and it will be heard." In December, Trump banned people with Palestinian Authority passports from entering the U.S. alongside those from Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, South Sudan and Syria. Though Malhees will not be present at the Oscars, the film’s director Ben Hania, who is Tunisian, should be able to attend. variety.com/2026/film/glob…

Fuck @AIPAC

As we continue to learn more, we are so relieved that all of the young children who attend school there were unharmed. Sending love to our Jewish family in Michigan and beyond.

We’ve been following news of the attack at Temple Israel in Michigan with sadness and fear. No one should ever feel unsafe in a synagogue or any house of worship or community space.

BREAKING: AIPAC locked the door and called the police on Chicago voters. They'd rather arrest voters than answer questions about the $20 million they're funneling through shell PACs into Chicago elections.

Chicago voters asked to speak with AIPAC about the $20 million they've dumped into dark money shell PACs to corrupt local elections. AIPAC locked the door and called the cops.

No AIPAC, no war!

BREAKING: AIPAC staffers lock the door and call the cops on Chicago voters. Voters are looking for answers about the $20+ million AIPAC is funneling through dark money SuperPACs to try to buy Chicago elections.

AIPAC is so unpopular that they're now funneling money through shell PACs to try to trick voters. Over $20 million in just four Chicago House races to try to protect their pro-genocide, pro-war positions in DC.

AIPAC has now spent over $20 million in four Chicago House races. IL-02: $4,379,242.74 IL-07: $5,028,248.54 IL-08: $4,107,564.92 IL-09: $6,993,803.97 They know the AIPAC name is toxic, so they're using front groups like "Elect Chicago Women" & "Chicago Progressive Partnership."

Under the cover of war, the cooperation between the military and Israeli settler militias is deepening the ethnic cleansing of the West Bank. This is what has been happening on the ground since the start of the Israeli-American offensive in Iran: Roadblocks and movement restrictions As soon as the IsraeliAmerican offensive against Iran began, Israel imposed sweeping movement restrictions on Palestinians in the West Bank. Most towns and villages were fully or partially sealed off to both inbound and outbound traffic, and travel between different parts of the West Bank has also been blocked. Attacks by Israeli settler militias Taking advantage of the war, armed settler militias, often operating with support from the army, continue to attack and harass Palestinian communities across the West Bank in an effort to force them out. The attacks include: Raids on Palestinian shepherding communities and villages, home searches, livestock theft, vandalism, and assaults using clubs and stones on residents defending their homes and livestock, causing severe injuries. Live fire and fatalities: In some raids, armed settlers fire at Palestinian residents. On Monday, 2 March, a settler shot and killed two brothers in the village of Qaryut; other shootings across the West Bank left additionalPalestinians injured. Land takeovers and economic damage: Settlers deliberately graze livestock in Palestinians’ cultivated fields, destroy crops and stored food, steal livestock, and vandalize solar panels and water tanks. Settlers have also used bulldozers to raze and take over privately owned Palestinian land. Army raids and home takeovers: The Israeli military has launched raids and mass arrests in villages throughout the West Bank. Soldiers have taken over at least 55 homes inside Palestinian communities (as of Thursday evening), where they remain for extended periods without clear military necessity. In several cases, soldiers forced families out of their homes, leaving them without shelter during war, while the soldiers themselves are protected inside the homes they invaded. Military takeover of Palestinian family homes is a practice Israel employed during its previous war on Iran in June 2025. It is a grave violation of the basic rights of Palestinian residents, first and foremost, the right to life. Fuel and gas shortage As the fuel shortage across the West Bank worsens, gas and fueling stations have seen long lines and rationing has been introduced. Missiles and lack of protection Missile fragments have fallen in several areas in the West Bank in the districts of Hebron, Bethlehem, Ramallah, Jenin, Nablus, and east of Jerusalem. The nearly three million Palestinians living in the West Bank have no access to shelters or warning systems, in stark contrast to the hundreds of Israeli settlements that have both.
