Ex-Members of Congress EXPOSE AIPAC, Tell All

“Let’s talk AIPAC.”

We are proud to present the first episode of ‘Bowman and Bush,’ Zeteo’s new show, where former members of Congress Jamaal Bowman and Cori Bush pull back the curtain on US politics to expose how special interests, lobbying, and big money prevent representatives from truly serving the American people and getting things done.

Where else will you find two former members of Congress getting super honest about American politics – and really, the special interests, lobbying, and corruption that have taken over our democracy? The answer is: nowhere!

Jamaal and Cori share stories you’ve never heard before. From how the pro-Israel lobby group AIPAC takes down candidates and gets bills they want passed, to how fundraising for the Democratic Party paralyzes candidates who aren’t corporate-backed, and the many ways that Cori and Jamaal tried to fight for everyday people from within Congress - but were vilified for it.

The two share more untold stories, especially about Congressional corruption and compromises, plenty of laughs, and also speak to Jewish anti-apartheid activist and IfNotNow co-founder Simone Zimmerman about her experiences dealing with AIPAC, the weaponization of antisemitism, and the strange but growing alliance between pro-Israel groups and the US far-right.

At a time when the truth is so actively being obfuscated, and misinformation and lies are being propagated, Cori and Jamaal bring refreshing honesty and truth to the conversation about what’s wrong with politics in the US.

Have a watch! Let us know what you think in the comments.
