1) No
2) She's my least favorite Democrat. Her "defund the police" scam not only cost us elections, but she still uses the term to this day. Why won't she admit that the slogan was wrong? She's also way too far to the left in general. No more Bush's in politics.
I do like fellow Justice Democrat AOC however. She may be to my left, but she presents her views with a smile, not a snarl.

No it isn't. Unlike Netanyahu (and Rep. Tlaib), AIPAC is in favor of a two-state solution.

Opposition to a two-state solution is a "hard right" position? Rep. Tlaib is against a two-state solution.

Not a fan of AIPAC, but some of these "preogressives" have thrown their lot in with some distasteful people.
