REPORT: Democrat Rashida Tlaib Meets With Terror-Affiliated, Anti-Israel Activist (Details)
Here’s a story you probably thought, and hoped, you’d never have to read.
And yet, here we are.
A sitting member of Congress, freshman Democrat Rashida Tlaib (MI), recently met with an extreme anti-Israel activist who just so happens to be affiliated with terror.
Good going, Michigan.
Really smooth.
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.
Advertisement - story continues belowAmerican 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.
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) describes the BDS movement as “the most prominent effort to undermine Israel’s existence” and has further criticized AMP for promoting anti-Semitism under the guise of educating Americans. AMP hailed the ADL’s anti-Israel description of its organization.
After her win, Rashida celebrated with the Palestinian flag.
She noted, “A lot of my strength comes from being Palestinian.”

New Cong. Rashida Tlaib said 4 US senators “forgot what country they represent.”
She’s a proud Palestinian-American. Understood.
But for someone wrapped in a Palestinian flag on Election Day to level such a charge is shocking.

According to Tlaib, all Congressional Democrats are racist.
No joke. 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)…
The attacks on @IlhanMN and subsequent lack of support from Democratic leadership continues to prove that this system was never meant for us.
Do not applaud diversity and the “first” Muslims in any space if you’re not willing to be a true ally and defend us.#IStandwithIlhan

Enter Tlaib, who dropped the bomb…
They put us in photos when they want to show our party is diverse. However, when we ask to be at the table, or speak up about issues that impact who we are, what we fight for & why we ran in the first place, we are ignored. To truly honor our diversity is to never silence us.

Would Tlaib say she's being used as a token?

Watching Rashida Tlaib come to the revelation of what we've already known about the Democrat Party is quite the fireworks show.

You mean Democrats are just using people of color and ethnic minorities as props? GTFO!
