Couldn’t we just outlaw foreign interference?
We do…

AIPAC was created because it’s predecessor had to register.
There’s no logical reason AIPAC doesn’t have to register, it’s just one of those things where a company changes their name and claims they don’t know who that old company was.
What AIPAC is doing here is they see a vulnerable member they don’t like on their issue and they go after them," said a House Democrat.
The lawmaker added: “Whatever you think of [AIPAC], they’re pretty intelligent. They’ve got some skin in this in the sense that if Bowman wins, that’s egg on their face. They’re very strategic.”
This is how moderates act when a progressive incumbent loses…
But if it’s a moderat incumbent, even as shitty as Manchin, the DNC protects them, and untill very recently opened threatened to blackball anyone that came close to a primary campaign against any incumbent.
Any “party unity” has always been one sided. “Moderates” prefer republicans to progress.
Technically Hakeem Jeffries endorsed Bowman and donated a couple thousand dollars, but he certainly didn’t make much noise about it. I think that was more for deniability after the fact, Jeffries himself is on the AIPAC payroll.
