Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) suggested that people vote against President Joe Biden during the upcoming 2024 presidential election due to his handling of the ongoing war in Gaza and for his support of Israel. During a speech on Saturday at the People’s Conference for Palestine in Detroit, Michigan, Tlaib slammed Biden for saying Israel’s war with Hamas in Gaza is “not genocide.” “What’s happening is not genocide,” Biden said during a Jewish American Heritage Month event on May 20. Biden’s comments came after the International Criminal Court issued a statement that they were seeking arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister...

A staffer with Squad member Rashida Tlaib's tried to stop a Fox News reporter from asking her questions about the prospect of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressing the US Congress. Rep. Tlaib, the lone Palestinian-American in the House of Representatives, has been harshly critical of Israel's response to Hamas brutal assault on the Jewish state on October 7. Israel is fighting to wipe out Hamas militants who attacked Israel. Palestinian authorities say more than 35,000 people have been killed during Israel's campaign in Gaza. On Thursday, the Michigan Democrat was walking near the Capitol when Fox News' Chad Pergram...

Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib says students should be able to set up encampments on college campuses. On Thursday, she made these comments during a press conference after police broke up encampments at the University of Michigan. Tlaib (D-Mich.) compared pro-Hamas demonstrations to the civil rights movement, claiming she is on the right side of history.

Rep. Ilhan Omar's (D-Minn) daughter Isra Hirsi was one of 108 students arrested at the request of Columbia University President Nemat "Minouche" Shafik. "I took this extraordinary step because these are extraordinary circumstances. The individuals who established the encampment violated a long list of rules and policies. The vile and overt anti-Semitism has made many other students feel unsafe." Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich) called the arrests "an unjustified suppression of freedom of speech. These students are protesting Israel's indiscriminate massacre of Palestinians in retaliation for Hamas' heroic October attack against the Jews' illegal occupation of Palestine. Instead of removing these...

Lefty reps Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib have called out the arrest of fellow ‘Squad’ member Ilhan Omar’s daughter during Columbia University’s disruptive anti-Israel protest, griping the crackdown was “appalling.” The two progressive members of Congress chimed in after scores of students were cuffed and hauled away from the Ivy League campus on Thursday after the NYPD were brought in to clear out the large tent encampment. “What is going on here @BarnardCollege @Columbia? How does a student with no disciplinary record suddenly get to a suspension less than 24 hours after a nonviolent protest?” Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) tweeted alongside a...

At an anti-Israel demonstration in Dearborn, Michigan, Tarek Bazzi led the crowd in chants of "death to America." When Fox reporter Hillary Vaughn asked Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich) about this the Congresswoman called the chant "a legitimate viewpoint. If my constituents feel this way it is my duty to honestly represent their views in Congress." "The whole world knows that Israel is the instigator of most of the world's problems," she added. "The October 7 attack was a justified response to these instigations. Israel has been illegally occupying Palestinian lands since 1948. Any actions taken to try to persuade the...

Rashida Tlaib is the appallingly left-wing and anti-Semitic Congresswoman who represents, among other precincts, Dearborn, Michigan, the center of Hamas’s American support. When pro-Hamas demonstrators in Tlaib’s district chanted “Death to America!” Fox News naturally sought out Ms. Tlaib for comment. After all, they are not just her constituents but probably her most fervent supporters. But she refused to respond:Hananya Naftali@HananyaNaftali · Follow Dear America,You have a Congresswoman called Rashida Tlaib who is receiving a salary funded by your taxes, and yet she refuses to condemn "death to America" chants.I'm confused, is she working for Americans or against Americans?So Rashida...

Representative Rashida Tlaib (D., Mich.) on Thursday refused to condemn “death to America” chants that featured prominently at a rally in the district she represents. Last week, at an anti-Israel demonstration in Dearborn, Michigan, local activist Tarek Bazzi led a crowd in chants of “death to America” and “death to Israel,” saying the Jewish state “does not deserve to exist” and celebrating former Iranian ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. Fox Business reporter Hillary Vaughn approached Tlaib in the halls of the United States Capitol Complex and asked whether the Michigan congresswoman would condemn the chants. Rather than answer Vaughn’s question, Tlaib said...

The liberal actor declared, 'In all honesty, I have educated myself so much since 2016' --------------------------------------------- Comedian and pro-Israel advocate Michael Rapaport shredded what the modern Democratic Party has become and explained why he is increasingly considering voting for Trump in a new interview. As part of a series about the Israel-Hamas conflict that rages in the Middle East, an interviewer from Visegrad24 spoke to Rapaport on the shores of an Israeli beach and asked, "Have your political views shifted? You’ve been a very vocal anti-Trump - probably the most vocal anti-Trump celebrity out there. Have your views shifted? I...

When the polls closed on February 27 for the 2024 Michigan Democratic primary, more than 100,000 voters cast their ballots as “uncommitted.” Usually, those votes would have gone to President Joe Biden. “Michigan, a critical state in the general election and a key component of the Democratic coalition, is becoming a battleground where voters are expressing their disappointment and demanding a change in policy,” the uncommitted movement’s website states. Then a week later on Super Tuesday, thousands of votes in North Carolina, Massachusetts and Minnesota also came in uncommitted on the Democratic side. Naturally, the question becomes, why are these...

Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-Mich.) warned Tuesday that her colleague Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s (D-Mich.) anger at President Biden over his administration’s handling of the Israel-Hamas war could backfire if it helps elect former President Trump, who she said could be far worse for Palestinians. Dingell said it is important to listen to the Muslim and Arab American communities in Michigan, as voters in the state go to the primary polls on Tuesday. Tlaib has backed a push for Democratic voters to vote “uncommitted” in protest of Biden’s support for Israel, and refusal to back a ceasefire in the war. But Dingell...

Reps. Cori Bush (D-MO) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) were the only two votes against a bill in the U.S. House of Representatives on Wednesday that would ban Palestinians who joined in the Hamas terror attack on Israel on October 7 from entering the U.S. The Jewish Insider reported: Reps.

New devastating accounts of sexual violence and torture enacted on defenceless Israeli women by Hamas terrorists amid their brutal October 7 attacks have emerged. Images shown to the New York Times by Israeli authorities showed a woman who had dozens of nails driven into her thighs and genitals in a savage example of mutilation, while other clips displayed the corpses of soldiers and civilians alike who had been either shot or stabbed in the groin. Another dark image dubbed 'the woman in the black dress' showed the corpse of an Israeli later identified as Gal Abdush.

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) is calling out her colleagues in Congress who have sat down with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the ongoing war between his country and the terror group Hamas. She called the conservative leader a “genocidal maniac” in a post on her Instagram Story on Wednesday. “Every member of Congress who sits down with this murderer is supporting a war criminal,” Tlaib wrote. “We will never ever forget.” That would include fellow Democrats who met with Netanyahu since the war began, as the issue continues to fracture the left.

On Wednesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “The ReidOut,” Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) said that the Biden White House’s criticism of her calling for a ceasefire in the conflict between Israel and Hamas in response to the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack on Israel “is going to increase hate towards Palestinians or people that support a ceasefire.” But no one should define what chanting “From the river to the sea” means to her “as a Palestinian.” Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) stated, “We reached out to the White House, and there were other members of Congress who reached out to the White House...

Rashida Tlaib had the crowd eating out of her hand. It was March 2018, and the hookah lounge in a working-class suburb outside of Chicago was packed. Warm and engaging, switching frequently between English and Arabic, Tlaib - a Michigan State representative with larger ambitions - pleaded for out-of-state donations to help her become the first Palestinian American in Congress. She unashamedly told the audience that her Detroit constituents often declared: 'Rashida is a warrior, and this is a war we're in.' Sitting in the front row, Rafeeq Jaber listened intently, seemingly impressed and knowing a thing or two about...

The House of Representatives (212 Republicans and 22 Democrats) recently voted to censure radical Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., because she has "levied unbelievable falsehoods about our greatest ally, Israel, and the attack on October 7." One of those outrageous falsehoods was clinging to the false claim that Israel bombed the al-Ahli hospital in Gaza. But guess what? Our professional "fact-checkers" haven't located that lie... or any other nutty utterance, like her laughable claim that "from the river to the sea" isn't a Hamas slogan about the eradication of Israel, it's an "aspirational call for freedom" and "peaceful coexistence." With Democrats,...

FIRST ON FOX: A legal group called on the Michigan bar to investigate and sanction "Squad" Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., over her antisemitic rhetoric. The nonpartisan Coolidge Reagan Foundation is calling on the State Bar of Michigan to probe Tlaib, who is an active attorney in Michigan, over her comments. Dan Backer, the foundation's counsel, told Fox News Digital that he believes people who spread "vile, antisemitic lies to foster hatred towards a people" should be held accountable. Backer said Tlaib "clearly violated" the Michigan bar's ethics code with her rhetoric and that he was initially looking into "some of...
