We're so close to reaching our end-of-month fundraising goal. Help us get there by midnight. John, We’ll keep this short: We’re only $2173 away from hitting our end-of-month goal of $10,000, just .01% of what AIPAC is preparing to spend against our pro-peace, pro-humanity movemen…

Paying the price for leading with courage and love

While AIPAC continues its cynical ploy to silence and punish Cori, her advocacy for peace will not waiver. John, Why is AIPAC is gearing up to spend over $100 MILLION to knock Cori and the rest of the squad out of Congress in 2024? It’s simple: AIPAC and their right-wing billion…
