U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., one of the first two Muslim women elected to Congress, got the 2023 legislative year off to a familiar start — by attacking Israel.
Pushing the identity politics and victimhood that defines today’s Democratic Party, the radical left activist/lawmaker stood on the floor of the House and called for an end to “unconditional support for Israel’s apartheid government.”
“No person, not one Palestinian Israeli, anyone, deserves to suffer or die for who they are what they believe, or where they were born,” the left-wing extremist said. “The sooner we end unconditional support for Israel’s apartheid government the sooner we can begin making good on that belief.”

With U.S. Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., no longer in a position of leadership, it remains to be seen how restrained Tlaib, who has a history of antisemitic actions, and the rest of the squad will be.
Taking to Twitter last week, Tlaib attacked both the United States and Israel, accusing the Jewish state of ethnic cleansing.
“2022 was one of the deadliest years for Palestinians on record. Israeli forces and settlers killed more than 200 Palestinians, including more than 50 children, injured thousands more and demolished over 800 Palestinian homes,” the Democrat claimed. “Not even one week into 2023, the new far-right apartheid government is moving to ethnically cleanse entire communities—which would displace more than 1,000 Palestinian residents, including 500 children. All with American backing, bulldozers, and bullets.”

Fortunately, as seen in social media, Tlaib is known for who she is at this stage of the game… here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story from Twitter:
She is an anti-semite

Calling people names over disagreements is more suited to Dems & identity politics.
Semites are all people with heritage from the Semitic region — which includes Rashida Tlaib
Being against sending tax dollars to Israel doesn’t make someone antisemetic

She should be removed from all committees that have international connections or direct policy,

This is a trial balloon to see if she gets kicked off of her committees for making the speech.

Michigan and other blue states need to stop sending kooks like this to DC for things to have a chance at improving…

Rashida Tlaib has no idea what goes on in Israel! She’s NOT there! Unless there’s a Hamas attack ongoing, almost as many Palestinians cross the border every day to work in Israel as there are Israeli’s. She’s LYING and cannot be trusted! #TlaibLies
