Progressives’ anti-AIPAC wave hits a snag in St. Louis

Based on the title alone, I can infer this is about Cori Bush (former Missouri congresswoman, defeated in 2024 partly due to AIPAC-backed spending) attempting a comeback against incumbent Wesley Bell in the 2026 Missouri Democratic primary, and progressives' broader push against AIPAC influence hitting resistance there — but I don't have enough verified detail from the actual article to write an accurate summary.
Could you either: 1. Grant WebSearch permission so I can look up the story, or 2. Paste the article text directly?
Explained simply
AIPAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, is a US group that supports a close relationship between the United States and Israel. It and allied groups have spent money to influence elections, including by supporting candidates who back that relationship.
Cori Bush is a progressive Democrat who represented part of St. Louis in Congress. Wesley Bell, also a Democrat, won her seat in 2024; their contest became part of a wider debate among Democrats over Israel policy, campaign spending and AIPAC’s influence.
