From The Times of Israel, "US to spend record $454 million securing religious institutions as antisemitism spikes": The US federal government will spend nearly $150 million more this year than it did in 2023 to secure religious organizations, a jump aimed at addressing a rise in antisemitism since October 7.In related news, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) has already spent over $100 million this election cycle.
"AIPAC's PAC has spent $44.8 million as of the end of July, according to the FEC, with $42 million given to the campaigns of members of Congress and other candidates, as well as to party groups and leadership PACs," Sludge reports. "AIPAC's super PAC, the United Democracy Project (UDP), has spent about $55.4 million so far this election cycle, according to the FEC. More than $35 million of that spending has been on independent expenditures for things like television ads and mailers designed to influence voters, while the rest has been for operating expenses and contributions to other political groups."Easy come, easy go!
