Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan gave a "progressive" response to President Joe Biden's first State of the Union address in a speech on behalf of the Working Families Party on Tuesday night.
"In the richest country in the world, it shouldn't be this hard for so many to have a good life," said Tlaib. "I'm a lifelong Democrat. I'm also part of the Working Families Party, because I believe that our government must put the needs of working families first."
Tlaib argued that progressives have worked the hardest to support Biden's agenda, blaming both Republicans and "corporate-backed Democratic obstructionists" for the lack of action on Build Back Better, the social spending and climate bill at the center of Biden's domestic agenda.
"No one fought harder for President Biden's agenda than progressives," said Tlaib. "We rallied together with our supporters, held town halls in our communities, engaged new people, and we even played hardball in Congress."
"But two forces stood in the way: a Republican Party that serves only the rich and the powerful, and just enough corporate-backed Democratic obstructionists to help them succeed," she said.
**SNIP**
"President Biden and Congress stopped what could have been economic freefall," said Tlaib, referring to Biden's COVID stimulus bill, the American Rescue Plan. "Not a single Republican, not one, voted for that relief package."
"With the majority of the Build Back Better agenda stalled, Mr. President, the work is unfinished," she also said. "And we are ready to jumpstart our efforts again."
Tlaib, in contrast to Biden, mentioned the January 6 attack on the US Capitol during her remarks, declaring that Republicans "are trying to destroy the political power of working class families and they're willing to tear down our democracy to do it.

Comrade with, the anti_semitic psychopath has finally admitted that she is Palestinian Communist!
The Working Families Party is an expanding MARXIST organization originally based in New York with a lot of influence on the NYC council and congressional delegates. The have been expanding into Virginia, possibly Alabama, Mississippi, Texas and Michigan.
They are hardcore MARXIST traitors.
Thanks is due to an old NY PD officer who has been following what this group has been doing since it was formed from the start as well as the wonderful New York Post newspaper who has been reporting on their political infiltration and influence esp for years.
Maybe the “working families” should work and pay for their own crap instead of stealing my wages to fund a lifestyle so they don’t have to work. All these greedy commie jerks do is demand everyone else fund their lifestyle.
Wait, nothings that hard to figure put.
1. Working hard = racist.
2. Getting an education = racist
3. Work ethic= racist
4. Able to effectively communicate = racist
5. Solid family structure and support = racist
Buy getting everything 100% paid for by the govt is 100% fine.
So what she is saying is that it’s the gov fault for not giving you more, more, more.

Foul-mouthed Mohammedan Communist Regressive Traitor.
“Impeach this motherf**ker in November.”
The Constitution provides only two methods to remove an elected member of the House of Representatives. The first is at the ballot box in November every two years when the people in the districts represented by each member of the House vote on who will represent them for the next two year term.
The second method is expulsion. Under Article I, Section 5, clause 2, of the Constitution, a member may be removed by a formal 2/3 affirmative vote on a resolution to expel the member.
Formal resignation from the office by the member, and death in office, are the other two ways for a sitting member to leave office before a term expires.
The Constitution has no provision for recall by the citizens of the district. Recall of representatives was discussed at the Constitutional Convention, but was not included in the document ratified by the states.
The Constitution guarantees a representative government to citizens. It does not guarantee the people will choose wisely. If the people of a district wish to elect a communist, or a even a convicted criminal, that is their right.
Socialists like her are ‘Regressive’.
Such proud idiocy is almost hard to believe.
Good post. #9.
What an ugly, selfish little pig.
Is she like the bad Scanner played by Michael Ironside?
Juli Boeheim robbed at gunpoint in Destiny USA parking lot
Jim Boeheim's wife. Robbed at gunpoint by kids. At Destiny USA. In the middle of the afternoon.
Isn’t this the person who claims to be a Palestinian? Watch this short video of how the Palestinians were “created”. Tlaib is fake and her history is fake. Robert Spencer: How the “Palestinians” were invented https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MP0zH0mJBf8
“In the richest country in the world” Rich? What’s she talking about? We’re $30 trillion dollars in debt.
Hope she got a lot of face time on TV. America needs to see the extremism they are up against.
