The House passed a GOP-led resolution on Tuesday to censure Rep. Rashida Tlaib over comments critical of Israel and in support of Palestinians amid Israel’s war against Hamas.
The move amounts to a rare and significant rebuke of the Michigan Democrat, who is the first Palestinian-American woman to serve in Congress. The vote was 234 to 188 with four Republicans voting against and 22 Democrats voting in support of the censure resolution.
The resolution, which was introduced by Georgia GOP Rep. Rich McCormick, advanced earlier in the day after a Democratic-led effort to block the measure failed.
Fuck the GOP and fuck those 22 Democrats! She’s speaking truth to power and they know it!
This is politicial theatre for the owner donors and the least informed/most misinformed voters, but with chilling real world consequences for not only Tlaib herself, but EVERYONE who dares speak up for the innocent victims of the Israeli apartheid regime or any other tyrannical government that happens to have business with rich and powerful Americans 🤬🤬🤬
