Democrat Rep. Rashida Tlaib did not appear to welcome reports that Joe Biden will likely nominate Tony Blinken for secretary of state, according to multiple reports.

Blinken, who got his start at the State Department under the Clinton administration, served under President Obama as former deputy secretary of state.

“So long as he doesn't suppress my First Amendment right to speak out against Netanyahu's racist and inhumane policies,” she said on Twitter, reacting to Axios’s report. “The Palestinian people deserve equality and justice.”

Blinken, who is Jewish, has reportedly been called a “great diplomat and true friend of Israel" by Michael Oren, former Israeli Ambassador to the United States, The Jerusalem Post reports.

Twitter users were quick to point out what Tlaib's comments truly showed.

Lots of popcorn will be consumed in the next four years as the intersectional, race-obsessed Democrats tear themselves apart.

And 11 million illegals are given citizenship. And the climate treaties we join again destroy our economy. And China roams free to do what it wants.

That and many other things are going to dampen my appetite for popcorn.

If this guy gets in office he’s going to make Obama’s administration look right of center.

Man!

I had to read the title three times as my mind kept inserting an ‘R’ after the P and before the I...

It does have the word ‘BIDEN’ in the title after all..

Sadly, its no longer “if”. Its “when”. He won’t be in office long though. The 25th amendment will take care of that.

>>...intersectional, race-obsessed Democrats tear themselves apart.<<

I agree, but the tearing apart of America too. I believe the Dem party stands to lose more with a Biden admin that a GOP admin. They were focused together with TDS and now that it’s done all they have to rip apart is each other.

The same people who picked McCain and Romney to run for President are probably the same ones picked Biden and now his alleged cabinet.

And then the most terrifying president ever will take office.

I add “if” so folks don’t attack me :)

I don’t know what’s going to happen.

It’s an incredible mountain to climb.

And it will have been a successful coup.

Great.
