Flashback: Rashida Tlaib's Father Confirms She 'Lied Big-Time to Get Elected' [Details]

Linkedin Share

Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib (MI) has made waves just as big as fellow freshman Democrats Ilhan Omar (MN) and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY). All three have come under fire for saying silly things since their victories last November.

Now, in a resurfaced article from 2010, Tlaib’s own father admits that Rashida “lied big-time to get elected” as a state representative.

In a March 11, 2010 newspaper article in The Detroit News, Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s (D-MI) father accused her of lying “big-time to get elected” by falsifying her address on an election affidavit.

Tlaib’s father, Harbi Elabed, made the accusations against Tlaib, who at the time was a freshman state-level representative from the 12th District in Detroit’s Southwest side. The newspaper article was scrubbed from the internet when The Detroit News migrated to a new website but was available in a subscription-based digital archive.

Tlaib recently met with an extreme anti-Israel activist who just so happens to be affiliated with terror.

From Daily Caller:

Democratic Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib met with another extreme anti-Israel activist and terrorist-supporter in her Capitol Hill congressional office during American Muslims for Palestine Advocacy Day in mid-April.

American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) hosted the annual advocacy and training event, which was open to all adults who “seek justice in Palestine.” Additional criteria for participation includes supporting the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement, which seeks to punish Israel by economically depriving the country for its alleged mistreatment of Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip and West Bank.

According to Tlaib, all Congressional Democrats are racist. She actually said that, revealing what conservatives have known to be true for decades.

Did Tlaib mean to say it, though? IT SURE LOOKS THAT WAY.

Here’s how it all started…

A woman sent a tweet arguing that Democrats are not doing enough to protect embattled Dem Rep. Ilhan Omar (MN)…

Enter Tlaib, who dropped the bomb…

WHOOOOAAAA!!

After her win, Rashida celebrated with the Palestinian flag.

She noted, “A lot of my strength comes from being Palestinian.”
