Controversial Missouri Congresswoman Cori Bush on Tuesday became the second "Squad" member to lose in a Democratic primary this year, following Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y.

Bush, a controversial lawmaker who rose to prominence in the Black Lives Matter movement, was denied a third term when Democratic voters nominated St. Louis County prosecutor Wesley Bell for the seat that represents St. Louis city and part of St. Louis County. Pro-Israel groups spent millions to unseat Bush, a vocal critic of the war in Gaza and the Jewish state. 

"The Many have spoken!" the American Israel Public Affairs Committee posted on X after the race was called for Bell. "Congratulations to pro-Israel progressive leader @bell4mo on your big win against anti-Israel Squad member Rep. Cori Bush!"

Bell’s campaign received a big boost from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, whose super political action committee, United Democracy Project, spent $8.5 million to oust Bush. She was targeted after repeated criticism of Israel’s response to the Oct. 7 Hamas attack.
