AIPAC’s super PAC, which is backing Wesley Bell, used distorted photos of Bush as part of a $7 million ad blitz against the progressive incumbent.

    So I clicked this expecting to just find that they’re lying pieces of shit.

    But actually they’re lying racist pieces of shit.

    Not that I’m surprised really… just noting that fact.

      Yeah the headline really undersells it.

      The photo of Bush used in the AIPAC mailers was taken from a Missouri Independent article. In the mailers, part of Bush’s forehead has been photoshopped and appears sloped. The photos are also color altered.

          Any day.

          Any… Yeah nope. We live in a country with significant cultural and systemic racism.
