Climate Defiance Confronts Ritchie Torres Over $6.7M Pro-Israel Lobby Funding Amid Gaza Outrage
May 13, 2026
$6.7M FROM PRO-ISRAEL LOBBIES TO BANKROLL THE SLAUGHTER OF CHILDREN!
On May 11, 2026, activists from Climate Defiance swarmed an elite Limo Executive event to confront Representative Ritchie Torres, the man who has turned ignoring his own constituents into a professional sport.
While Torres was busy rubbing elbows with corporate donors, protestors shut down the room, demanding to know how he sleeps at night while pocketing millions from the very lobbies bankrolling the genocide in Gaza.
Protestors highlighted the staggering $6.7 million in career-long support Torres has received from pro-Israel lobbying groups like AIPAC. He is currently one of the top recipients of this blood money in the entire U.S. Congress.
Torres tried to brush off the confrontation, but the message was delivered: you cannot take millions from the war machine and still call yourself a leader.
If you take the blood money, expect the people to show you the blood. Ritchie Torres has sold his soul for $6.7 million, and we aren’t going to let him forget it.
You don’t get to attend fancy dinners while you’re writing the checks for a massacre.
SHAME ON YOU, RITCHIE! THE BRONX IS WATCHING.

English Script:
Male activist: Did AIPAC comp your plane ticket to Tel Aviv Pride? Or do you just support genocide for the love of the game? Why did you choose genocide? Why won’t you defend your district? How does it feel that Epstein charges more for little kids’ lives than you do? How dare you?
Unknown man: There’s a proper way of protesting and this isn’t it.
Female activist: He doesn’t listen to the proper way of protesting because he’s cutting checks from donors. I understand that that might not be your position, but there are hundreds of thousands of people who are dead at his hands.
