Democratic Rep. Cori Bush of Missouri lost her primary election this week. In her concession speech, the "Squad" member blasted the nation's largest pro-Israel group, AIPAC.
Bush warned the group to "be afraid." She lost to a pro-Israel Democratic rival backed by AIPAC. Bush claimed the group's influence has "radicalized" her.
"All they did is radicalize me," she said. "So they need to be afraid." Bush vowed to tear AIPAC's kingdom down. "I'm coming after you too," she warned corporations.

Pro-Israel groups spent millions to unseat Bush. She criticized the war in Gaza and Israel. Bush said leaving the legislature frees her to fight AIPAC more.
"There are some strings that I have attached," she said. "All they did was radicalize me. Now they should be afraid."
Bell's campaign was boosted by a pro-Israel super PAC. United Democracy Project spent $8.5 million to oust Bush.
AIPAC targeted Bush after her criticism of Israel’s response to the Oct. 7 Hamas attack. This strategy worked earlier in New York.
In June, United Democracy Project spent $15 million. They defeated another Squad member, Bowman, who lost to George Latimer, a pro-Israel centrist.
