Rashida Tlaib, a Democratic Representative from Michigan, drew criticism on both sides of politics when she appeared to express outrage at recent airstrikes in Yemen against Houthi rebels.
Tlaib responded to reports about a Signal text message group, which included national security officials as well as Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. The group discussed classified details about upcoming attacks on the armed terrorist group.
Somebody accidentally looped Jeffrey Goldberg of “The Atlantic” into the chat.
Reporter Andrew Solender relayed a quote from Rep. Chris Deluzio, D-PA, to Axios.
Tlaib responded, “More heat was directed at the use of a group chat rather than the bombing.”
Tlaib’s comment was quickly retorted by her followers on social media. This is just another example of how the congresswoman has defended terrorist groups in the past.
Townhall’s Katie Pavlich explained succinctly to the Squad member that “They are bombing terrorists.”
Chris Cuomo, former CNN correspondent and News Nation reporter, asked: “Do you want them to attack even more Americans?”
Jerry Dunleavy, Chief Investigative Reporter for Just the News, said: “I mean, yeah. Because killing Iranian-backed terrorists is a positive thing.”
Donald Trump ordered massive attacks against the Houthis, an allied radical Islamist group.
Trump stated, “The rebels have been waging an unrelenting war of violence and terrorism against American and other ships, aircraft, and drones since October 7, 2023. Joe Biden’s response was pathetically weakened, so the unrestrained Houthis kept going.”
Trump said that the Houthi attack against American vessels would not be tolerated. “We will use lethal force in overwhelming amounts until we achieve our goal.”
Tlaib’s support for the Houthis is not surprising.
The Michigan Democrat taunted Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu with an auction-style paddle, which alternately read, “War Criminal”, and “Guilty Of Genocide” during his address to Congress in July.
Tlaib received a censure in 2023 for anti-Israel remarks and for promoting Hamas war propaganda. She has a long and well-established history of obscene behaviour, including promoting terrorist sympathizers as well as denouncing American Allies.
Tlaib spoke at an art exhibition and took pictures with attendees five months before the terror attack by Hamas on Israel, which was perpetrated on October 7, 2007. The show advocated for Israel’s destruction and promoted terrorists.
Less than two weeks following the horrendous attacks in Gaza, Tlaib incited a pro-Palestinian riot in Washington, D.C. through Hamas propaganda regarding a hospital attack, which turned out to have been disinformation.
The arrests of hundreds of insurrectionists.
Tlaib, the representative from Palestine-Algeria, is among the most anti-American members of Congress. Her behavior is far beyond censure levels. It’s time to expel her.
