"Rep. Summer Lee, a far-left Democrat who has been critical of Israel’s military actions in Gaza, prevailed in Tuesday’s Pennsylvania primary election, which epitomized larger intraparty tensions over the Middle East and served as a test of Democratic voters’ attitudes about the war.
Cut through the 2024 election noise. Get The Campaign Moment newsletter.
The race in Pennsylvania’s 12th District was considered a first test for the “Squad” of left-wing, progressive Democrats in Congress, some of whom face primaries this summer. But Lee’s race failed to attract the heavy outside spending from pro-Israel groups that is expected in future Democratic primaries, most notably against Rep. Jamaal Bowman in New York and Rep. Cori Bush in Missouri."

It's great to see someone fighting against genocide has the support of the people
This is a knife in the heart of AIPAC, I hope it grows stronger and that our politicians grow a spine
Voted for congresswoman Lee in downtown Pittsburgh District-12😃😀🙏 Woman with genuine integrity✊🏾
I’m glad you get to have an amazing representative like Summer Lee. She’s amazing
Bless you.
Summer Lee kicked that AIPAC ass
Summer Lee is a World Hero and I hope the message of the voters is being heard loud and clear.. and no blood Money can silence that.
At least one of our PA “progressives” remained so! I’m so proud of Summer.
Summer Lee----I was so very pleased to see her survive the money and lies of AIPAC! Thank you, Pennsylvania!
If Israel put the same degree of effort into a peace plan, this nightmare would not even be a thing
Tantura... and then 76 years too late.
Great job and well done Summer Lee
Congrats Summer Lee!
This is the best news I've heard in a while!
Good news. The ICJ ruled Plausible Genocide is happening in Gaza; opposing such inhumanity is not antisemitism. God bless the students lawfully protesting for lives of Palestinian children in Gaza. We need many more like Lee.
I guess 10/7 was a big mistake. Oops!
@@johnward43 10/7 was an inhumane horror committed by Hamas. Here's the key, done "by Hamas," not every single Palestinian woman and child. If perpetrator "A" commits murder, perpetrator "B" is not excused of the same crime by pointing to the fact that perpetrator "A" committed murder first.
@@johnward43 "Jews shouldn't have betrayed the brave Germans during the Great war!" - You, if you lived back then.
@@johnward43 oct 7 was horrific, but you need to look at the bigger picture, you need to look at the fact that history didn't start at oct 7.
United We Stand With Summer and Ana 🇺🇲
Kasparian is flippin gorgeous!
And I am here for it 💔💋💋💋
Yes indeed my heart is literally broken over Gaza I might never recover! As I am so very devastated over the Palestinians plight.
Feel the same except for 🇮🇱
@@Politicallyhomeless18 That is the same thing the nazis said during WW2.....oh the ignorance or evil of the persecuted not seeing they are one in the same.
@@Politicallyhomeless18fuck Israel!
💪💪🎉.
She delivered results instead of rhetoric--*THAT* is the reason she won..🎊👏👏
Im a recurring, monthly, donor to Summer Lee, and couldnt be more proud. She is a champion.!
Summer Lee is one of the finest in Congress.
Gods bless Summer Lee. 🥳🎉
She is an icon
Very well done Summer Lee, outstanding 👏 😊
This is a message to other politicians don’t be bought by propagandist and liars but stand for justice and peace and it worked for congresswoman Lee she didn’t give up she stands for what she believes in and at the end she won, others should learn from her
Ana, here you are talkin’ crazy again: you mean to say that if you actually work to benefit your constituencies, instead of lobbiests, you can still win?!
Do not let THAT message get out!
This woman is a Hero of the Palestinians and to the best in humans. I applaude her.
What's crazy about this is that the majority of Americans support a ceasefire. So this shouldn't be a big deal. It's only because of our skewed media that her stance is considered to be out of the mainstream.
Then what about the hostages Hamas took? If Hamas release the hostages they took from Israel, this should be finished already.
Respect for Lee
Ban ADL
AIPAC is gonna have a very expensive year
congratulation Summer Lee.
I live in Pittsburgh and I voted for Summer Lee..... I knew she was progressive, though I didn't know ANY of her stance. She just didni't annoyed me like Bob Casey or Mr Fetterman
Love ITT!!!!! I bet John Fettermans as was burning when he had to endorse Summer Lee
I've donated $15 every month since she first ran. She is not my congressman but its all can do to fight against AIPAC. My congressman Dwight Evans is just bad.
Legends are still alive
Money should never be part of any election ... sigh ...
You would think.
private money should indeed be kicked out of election campaign, but public money is still important, how else are you gonna pay for your campaign workers if not with money??
@@byunbaekhyun2283 You can't in a broken system. Soo your troubles are much worse then many realize. In the Netherlands it's all done by volunteers and we have laws against bribes and/or private fundings.
Ban AIPAC
“Speaking truth to power!” Congratulations Rep. Summer Lee!
I call 20%+ gap a blowout in this case. After getting embarrassed twice, I guess AIPAC learned their lesson.
I would say, though, that if she's doing things for her district, she can basically do/say whatever she likes.
That's pretty much a sweep. Anything over 5% margin is a blowout
Oh, hell yeah! I'm so excited for this voice to stay in Congress!
Well I see below in the comments, the colonizers can do no wrong where ever they are, whom ever they hurt. The people just want the bombing to stop. Calling everyone Hamas doesnt make it so. Summer lee seems to have her head on right. Hopefully her and other members of congress will make the difference in ending this war.
Summer Lee.. what a beautiful name! Congratulations!!
I’m tired of government funding other countries. Not here republican and Democrat. Don’t get no benefits constituent. universal healthcare tax credit, education, wages
Glad that money was spent in vain
AIPAC is waiting until November. They WILL try to get her out and i hope they fail.
And it will hurt them. As their narrative crumbles their money won't translate into votes. This was their best chance.
Hopefully they do try, so they can burn money on losing again. This woman is AIPAC Kryptonite 😂
her district is safe blue, impossible to flip, AIPAC might focus somewhere else.
✊❤✊❤✊❤✊❤SUMMER LEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!❤✊❤✊❤✊❤✊
Summer Lee is it congresswoman that should be in front of the spotlight just like AOC and Jasmine Crockett. She has to be one of the most beautiful person from the inside and also she’s a good looking woman too. But that’s not the point. I find her to be incredibly effective, and I see you she could be a leader in the house. She would do better than Nancy Paloschi.
well done
Thanx 4 this post
Namaste!
Cori Bush is the one I'm most worried about. Let's hope this is a sign of what's to come.
oh yeah, she's in missouri, i'm worried about her.
Love this ❤❤❤❤
We ARE NOT anti-Semitic we ARE anti-GENOCIDE.
And pro Hamas who kills people celebrating in the party
@@kaizen_monk Straight to the "pro-Hamas" garbage talk, eh? Typical. I am anti-Hamas AND also anti-current-Israel-government. I am pro-Ceasefire. Hamas is bad, Netanyahu and Zionists are bad.
Not waging war on people? Not putting your thumb down on people? Not trying to limit large swaths of people's freedoms? Those things are good. I like those things. How about you?
@@kaizen_monknobody is pro-Hamas. However in an apartheid state, the people have a right to defend themselves.
@@basedgamerguy818 defending themselves by killing people dancing in a music festival?
@@kaizen_monkbut Israel is justified in killing thousands of children
Summer Lee heated up at the primary and have AIPAC hell!
Here's hoping Biden learns from this.
❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏 FOR OPENING OUR EYES 👀 AND TELLING THE TRUTH, EXCELLENT REPORTING 🫡🫡🫡
Yes!
Hopefully Bidden and Trump is seeing this....
excellent analysis by Ana !
I thought there was something wrong with Anna's ears, then I realised her ear buds were skin toned, lol.
Even with space alien ears Anna is smoking hot!
@@stony1269 There is bipartisan agreement Anna is a hotty not a notty.
Wonderful when a person has core set of principles and ethics AND sticks by them
So happy for her ❤️❤️❤️
Summer Lee,your heart is in the right place.God gives wisdom...❤❤❤❤❤
Your "God" is just as big of a problem. Check out who helps fund AIPAC. Religion, in and of itself, is a stain on a civilized society. Grown people killing each other over who's fairy tale characters are more real and powerful. It's ridiculous.
This should make the establishment worry since it is becoming clear that the tide is changing against the establishment. We will vote you all out of office!
yes!
good wins!
American ppl will stand by a politician who stand on business
how is 60+ percent not a bow out? lol what metric are you using? that can ONLY be a blowout
From the burgh to the world - ✌️
Glad I’m in freedom loving Florida. Wish everywhere was like here.
Sounds great but just too hot.
You just stand your ground.
Freedom in Florida? That’s the funniest statement I’ve read all week!!
@@12nuk I mean everyone’s moving here from the commie states so we must be doing something right. I don’t blame them 😅
@getaclew Commie states? Is it still the 1950's? What children you all are.
🎉🎉❤
From the river to the sea!
❤❤❤
❤lookin like a whole snack 🎂
Can TYT please post which US political has received the most money over their career from APAC?
It’s public record….
Please just google and post.
Thanks
Biden.
Summer lee is a threat to the jewish cabal or lobby whatever they call themselves 😂😂😂.
HELL YEAHA
They are disproportionately loud, impossible to not 'hear them'
That was the goal
The biggest difference between us is that you feel better than i do , thats a well established fact
I hate to be nit-picky, but winning not just 60% of the vote but 60.6% is a complete blowout either way, not just a comfortable lead. Ana is otherwise very positive on Lee, but she just can't help that slight right-wing framing.
So she rounded in the wrong direction? I don't know, 0.6% doesn't sound like enough of a discrepancy to be considered right-wing framing to me. If she had rounded properly and called it 61%, it would be an ever-so-slight exaggeration. I can understand wanting to be safe from accusations of exaggerating, while not wanting to be super-precise (since she has to draw the line of precision somewhere - nobody is going to report 60.619834985% because their audience might get distracted and lose the thread).
@FromDesertTown I have no issue with where she rounded off it's that she called it a win by a comfortable lead. Winning by 5 pts is a comfortable lead. Lee's win is way beyond comfortable.
I mean I've had my issues with her slight right framing of stuff as of late. But I didn't really see this one as one. Just me I guess.
How much money was wasted on her opponent?
They don't care. AIPAC is using our own money to buy off or defeat our politicians! Ridiculous!
Welcome to the squad, the "pragmatic" problem solvers.
Is that the same Lee supporting changes to Title 9?
Ana babes - QUASH (non-physical) not SQUASH (physical). Love you though queen 👑
Who the hell is doing these thumbnails 🤦🤔😂
It's the Awakening of a new Generation!
Possibly a Presidential candidate? Right now I can vote for her over Biden.
Well she'll be voting for Biden
@@basedgamerguy818
HAHAHA!
@@basedgamerguy818 anyone is better than trump at this point. trump's stance on the war is lunatic.
All US Lawmakers have violated The Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) by acting as agents for israel. They did exactly the same as
@HenryCuellar
and his wife! Precisely the same just Azerbayan is replaced with israel. So they all act against the US and US laws - charge them!
Oh my god thank god. I know she had an Indian opposer
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🇺🇸💯👍🏻
Does she oppose voting for Joe Biden come November?
Hakim and Fetterman probably supported her because they already read the room and realized she was gonna win anyway and better looking like they had something to do with it
So how would you suggest eliminating Hamas when half the population is brainwashed to die for them?
So you want to kill more kids?
The original mass murdering cult calling the victims/anti-mass murders a cult....does your hypocrisy know no bounds??
Care to back that up?
@@beanabovethefrank1499 they had an election. Hamas won with about half the vote. They teach the ideology in the schools and enforce islamic law rather than a free society where people can exchange ideas freely. Not believing is punishable by a prison sentence.
@@arsimckhoi If you think Palestinians are in favor of having Hamas in power, you're ridiculously uninformed and hateful.
I don't like these formats without Cenk and Ana
It's more watchable without them. 😂
This is great news!! Go Summer!!!
She ran her mouth to Riley Gains during a hearing and when Riley clapped back this woman wanted it stricken from the record.she can dish but can't take . That's a red flag.
Wtf are you talking about
Now can we make Sure Congresswoman Iman gets reelected
🎉🎉❤❤❤
Shouldn't she focus on improving the life of black people.
🎯
Right. Taking $30 billion this year alone from that country and more than $300 billion cumulative throughout history can probably fix the problem at home. So she is focusing on improving black life instead of focusing on a foreign country
No she should worry about AMERICANS.
@@spankyssurprise1361And billions we need are going to Israel, so she should care.
@@spankyssurprise1361 Are you insinuating that black people are not Americans?
Now start reporting on Congresswoman Cori Bush’s campaign bc she is trailing by 20 pts.
Sje deserves to lose. She is a moron.
I fail to see how reporting on Cori Busch helps her. In fact, it seems the opposite is the case!
@@howardmctroy3303 uhh publicity, fundraising. The biggest difference in policy between her and her opponent is her support of Palestine. People should know that.
Soo amazinggg!!!❤❤❤
How bout Hamas surrenders?
They all died a long time ago
IDF is fighting civilians now
Like the West Bank? You just want the resistance gone.
How bout izrael retreat to 67 borders declares settlements illegal and accepted the will of Palestinian ...same way western ( izraeli) morals are trying to make the Palestinian accepted there truths about land belonging to someone (if only the natives in Canada US Central America South America wold actuly get to ask for there land back.)
LOL. How about Is... surrenders? ;-)
Why would they do that? They are the indigenous. Why doesn't the colonizers from Europe surrender instead?
And what did the West Bank get for surrendering? APARTHEID.
She wasn't re-elected yet. She won the primary
She will probably will win in the general
She's in a very blue district. It's quite not quite impossible for her to lose in the General the way it is with such as AOC, but it's still pretty unlikely.
