How I would cleanse american politics - Ban lobbying - Ban AIPAC immediately - Ban anyone with a criminal record from ALL forms of government - SCOTUS term limits - Make hate speech and nazis illegal - Lying as a gov. official or news source is illegal

Me personally I’d be more flexible with the all forms of govt bc I lowkey don’t see the harm in hiring some ex con as a mailman or smth, I’d probably say ban criminal record from leadership/influential positions

This is unconstitutional and illiberal. - you can ban lobbying or even campaign finance contributions but you can’t target a specific NGO like AIPAC. Violates right to assembly. - you can’t ban “hate speech” it’s protected under the first amendment.

If the hate speech is worded in a way to insinuate a threat, it isn’t protected. I’d be willing to put my vote in to expand that and include political threats, if a politician is spewing racist and incorrect shit to promote a policy or law I absolutely think that shouldn’t be allowed. Racism and other hate speech is just wrong and allowing it in the government is plain stupid lol

PACs are already prohibited from receiving money from foreign nationals or governments. If there’s evidence AIPAC does this by all means demand an investigation but what I’m really against is targeting specific PACs for political reasons. We should all be playing by the same rules.

Well you have to disclose if you’re directly controlled or funded by foreign entities, but AIPAC is supported by domestic supporters of the Israeli government, and AIPAC isn’t really trying to fool anyone here. I do not think anyone could look at AIPAC and think they do not have the interests of the Israeli government or citizenry in mind.
