  • Susheela Jayapal and Eddy Morales are pushing Maxine Dexter to find out who's behind $1.6 million spent on the race through a group called 314 Action. Specific donors don't have to be disclosed until the day before the election.

      Don’t agree. We have ENOUGH damn lawyers in Congress! I’m all for a pulmonary doctor….This was all just SOUR GRAPES from Jayapal & Gonzales (better believe, if they were raking in high $$ donations, they would be all, “What disclosure??”)

    It sucks how much big money swings elections here in Oregon. Sarah Iannarone's people powered campaign would've knocked out Ted until he got a late pump of cash.
    New laws needed asap to address this.

    I can oft be a little slow on the uptick on some things, so i hadn't really put it together that: i had not seen ONE SINGLE Campaign AD for Eddie; had only seen super negative Ads for Susheela; and only seen super positive Ads, for Maxine - until late last week! And since that time, I have been doing a little bit of digging. And below are some snippets that i have come across. I also came away with a better understanding of why SJ is accusing MAGA republicans of being part of the Campaign Ads against her. Because if it IS true, that AIPAC is ALSO behind 314? Well, AIPAC is, in fact, a "BI-PARTISAN" Donator, period. They will help fund Dems or Repubs - so long as you are mostly all in on anything Israel does, right or wrong. And since the Republican Party has, at its core, now become the Party of Maga, & they hate the Squad more than ANY other Democratic Caucus in the House (because they are the most Progressive & all mostly People of Color), & want to be rid of them, in the worst way ... oh but, sadly, so do some Conservative Dems & even some Moderates. Suffice, they have been leading the way in convincing Biden to enact some of the best things he's done & BBB was an absolute GEM of a Bill, until all R's & 2 Dem Dinos in the Senate, but i digress ... because again, i am going to try to shed some light on who is even backing 314?? Please see below: there should be about 3 of these. If you don't see them all, try clicking on "newest" where you see "sort by."

    And here's a couple more snippets i've run across: "Dexter has expressed gratitude to have support from 314 Action, which is also spending to support state Rep. Janelle Bynum in the Democratic primary for the 5th Congressional District."
    And here is something from Wikipedia:
    314 Action has spent $1.2 million on ads backing Maxine Dexter in her bid to succeed Earl Blumenauer, who is retiring from his seat representing Oregon's 3rd congressional district.[4] The Intercept has reported that these funds were provided by the pro-Israel lobbying group AIPAC, which opposes one of Dexter's opponents, Susheela Jayapal.[5]

    So here they are: believe what you want or don't want, but these are some highlights of articles i've dug up from various places, that may be useful in helping Folks make a more informed voting decision, regardless which sides of certain Issues:
    "IN APRIL, A super PAC ostensibly committed to supporting “pro-science” candidates began dropping eye-popping sums of money on a Portland, Oregon, congressional race. 314 Action Fund, which is not known for spending big in congressional primaries, has quickly spent $1.7 million in support of a single candidate in the Third Congressional District’s open Democratic primary, according to federal filings. That sum is equal to what the PAC spent on independent expenditures supporting or opposing candidates during the entire 2022 election cycle. And it’s just the start.
    By waiting until April to launch its spending blitz, 314 Action is able to delay disclosure of its donors until May 20. The election is scheduled for May 21, but ballots have already begun arriving to voters by mail. In other words, the identity of the donor or donors won’t be documented in campaign finance reports until it’s too late."

Look, i have met her atleast 2twice, & i actually like(d) her & might have voted for her, til i saw all the attack ADS she stands for against an opponent (Jayapal). Anyone who gets the kindof funding she is, means they are going 2b beholden to them, even when its something we oppose down the line, but can aalso be the biggest BULLY on the Block & that same AD over & over, on a reel against Susheela, is just craven & not becoming someone i would ever consider compassionate OR Progressive or DECENT!

      Yeah, smear tactics against Jayapal; have you seen even ONE attack AD against max dex? NO! because 314 is paying for all her ADS & all positive. I strongly believe 314 is also behind the negative AD on Susheela; i mean, who else has anything to gain here?! SO, the only "SMEAR" here, is what dexter's campaign is doing to all her competition.

    And its all well & good, i guess, that 314 reached out & Recruited & Endorsed Dexter 4 years ago, but that is STILL, alot different than being funded by them! As apparently her Funders are able to spend so much to buy Ads, that i don't even see ANY for Eddy (is he just not able to outspend her enough for even ONE Ad for ONE time slot? Meanwhile, someone sure was able to buy enuf Ad time, to run almost non-stop Hit Jobs on Jayapal! Whilst yet again, can she also not muster enough grub to fund even ONE Positive Ad, for herself?! And who is "Voters for Responsive Government, anyways?!

    And, while we're on the subject of how the Candidates think Biden should respond
    to the Campus Protests against Israel's wartime abuses against Gaza, followed by; & do you support Conditions on future Military Aid to Israel:' I noticed that both Eddy & Susheela, offered answers to both. SJ said that he must stop the unconditional military aid; & EM went further to suggest that: he needs to get more humanitarian aid to the PPL in Gaza & move towards a 2-State Solution. Meanwhile, MD basically complained that her daughter is 'trying to get her finals in;' while then not offering ANY answers to the part about how Biden should deal with what's happening with Israel & Gaza.

If 1960 was the turning point with Dwight Eisenhower Being the last and final president of the Lost Generation and the last president born in the 1800’s and the 19th century to leave office and George H.W. bush being the last and final president of the Greatest Generation and the WWII Veterans who honorably served in WWII in 1992, then one day Joe Biden and the silent generation should do the same along with the baby boomers to start electing the first Millennial President Pete Buttigeug in 2028.
