A fight is breaking out inside the Democratic Party over who shapes its Israel policy, and it is bad news for party leadership.

• Jared Moskowitz, who backs unconditional military aid to Israel, was named the top Democrat on the House subcommittee covering the Middle East.
• The pick came right after Hakeem Jeffries met with Jared Kushner, a meeting billed as being about affordability.
• Ro Khanna says that meeting served no purpose and calls the appointment a slap in the face to Democratic voters.
• Most Democratic voters now want less support for Israel, not more, putting leadership at odds with its own base.
• Khanna wants the progressive caucus to make the next Foreign Affairs chair pick someone closer to the base.

Outlook: Expect a fight over the Foreign Affairs chairmanship if Democrats win back the House, with progressives pushing to block picks like Moskowitz.
