EMBARRASSING! Ocasio-Cortez Defends Democrat Who Called Trump 'Motherf*****!'
Americans will have to get used to the names Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib.
At 29, Alexandria is the youngest elected female Congresswoman in American history.
She represents New York and is a self-declared socialist.
Tlaib is one of two female Muslim socialists Democrats elected to the lower chamber in 2018, along with Minnesota’s Ilhan Omar.
After being sworn-in, Tlaib was caught on camera saying Dems were going to impeach President Trump, the “motherf*****.”
Rashida Tlaib to a crowd of cheering supporters in DC: “We’re gonna go in there and impeach the motherfucker!”

WATCH:
Ocasio-Cortez is now defending Tlaib.
Republican hypocrisy at its finest: saying that Trump admitting to sexual assault on tape is just “locker room talk,” but scandalizing themselves into faux-outrage when my sis says a curse word in a bar.
GOP lost entitlement to policing women’s behavior a long time ago.
Next.

I got your back @RashidaTlaib – the Bronx and Detroit ride together 💪🏽💜

The problem is that while wrong, Trump was not a sitting politician at the time.
He was merely a civilian.
But what’s the use arguing with a socialist, right?
Trump’s response:
I thought her comments were disgraceful. This is a person that I don’t know…I assume she’s new?
I think she dishonored herself and I think she dishonored her family. Using language like that in front of her son and whoever else was there – I thought that was a great dishonor to her and her family. I thought it was highly disrespectful to the United States of America.

Tlaib said she stood by her comments but wouldn’t talk to reporters when questioned.
She fled:
Oh man.
After victoriously shouting to a cheering audience that she will "impeach the motherfucker" Trump, Rep. Rashida Tlaib *literally* runs scared from reporters asking her if she stands by the comments.
She's new here so does not know where to go – lol

Geraldo summed it up best:
1 of 1st ever Muslim American women elected to Congress-Michigan's @RashidaTlaib– vows to her child & a cheering crowd, “We’re going to go in there and impeach the motherfucker.” What a perfect way to ensure war vs @realDonaldTrump & to guarantee that nothing at all-0-gets done.

Tlaib, America’s first Palestinian-American Congresswoman, was sworn in on a Quran.
From Daily Wire:
The Quran owned by former President Thomas Jefferson will be the book upon which newly-elected Muslim congresswoman, Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), is sworn into the U.S. House of Representatives on Thursday.
According to The Hill, Tlaib will be making history this Thursday as the first Palestinian-American woman to join the lower chamber of Congress. She also joins alongside recently-elected Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) to be one of the first two Muslim congresswomen.
Translated into English by George Sale in 1734, Jefferson’s copy of the Quran resides in the Library of Congress, according to the Detroit Free Press. Tlaib told the Free Press that she chose Jefferson’s Quran to highlight that Islam goes back a long way in the United States.
Both Tlaib and fellow newly-elected Muslim Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-MN) have “extreme anti-Israel views.”
After her win, Tlaib celebrated with the Palestinian flag.

In the video, Tlaib delivered a victory speech in which she acknowledged her family watching from abroad in the Palestinian Authority-administered West Bank. She dedicated her victory, in part, to the Palestinian cause: “A lot of my strength comes from being Palestinian,” she said.
This was utterly absurd unless Tlaib won a race in Palestine – if she’d be even have allowed to run for office.
Check out the words of Ilhan Omar, who says Dems will “transform” our democracy:
Omar: “And so we are just really excited to get to work and make sure that the words we said on the campaign trail transform into legislation that will transform our government and our democracy.“
WATCH:
Guess who else vowed to “transform” our democracy:
In 2012, Omar tweeted about the “evil doings of Israel.”
She stuck by her words.

The tweet was dug up in 2018.
Omar’s response when forced to defend:
Drawing attention to the apartheid Israeli regime is far from hating Jews. You are a hateful sad man, I pray to Allah you get the help you need and find happiness. https://t.co/SvEXjlxlEN
— Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) May 31, 2018
Omar defended herself against charges of anti-Semitism in a July interview with ABC News, saying: “These accusations are without merit. They are rooted in bigotry toward a belief about what Muslims are stereotyped to believe.”

The oft-repeated notion that Israel is an “apartheid” nation is incorrect on multiple grounds. Perhaps the most succinct refutation of this idea comes from the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), which writes:
