On Day Two, Tlaib's Colleagues Are Already Furious With Her
Townhall.com ^ | January 5, 2019 | Cortney O'Brien

Rep. Rashida Tlaib's (D-MI) had not even clocked in a full 24 hours as a congresswoman before making enemies in Washington, including several in her own party. On Thursday night, hours after being sworn in to the 116th Congress, Tlaib grabbed a microphone and pledged to impeach President Trump, whom she referred to as a "mother f***er."

Veterans Democrats in the House noted how...unhelpful her little speech was.

"You can't accomplish very much of anything unless you have civility and show respect for your colleagues," Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD) said. "Those kind of comments do not take us in the right direction."

Cummings, who takes over as new chairman of the House Oversight and Reform Committee, added that Tlaib's comments were "inappropriate."  

"We need to be patient," he said, whatever that means.

Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) had some of the same complaints.

House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler on Rashida Tlaib's vow to impeach Trump: "I don't really like that kind of language, but more to the point, I disagree with what she said. It is too early to talk about that intelligently. We have to follow the facts" https://t.co/Ctwc5n4hGK pic.twitter.com/OsCOTQnuj2— CNN Politics (@CNNPolitics) January 4, 2019

Even Rep. Brad Sherman (D-CA), who introduced actual articles of impeachment against Trump, was appalled by Tlaib's remarks.

“That’s not language I would use," he said. "I think the office of the presidency should be treated with respect.”

If only the Democratic leadership took such a strong stance on Tlaib's language. When asked to respond to the freshman representative's comments, the best Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi could come up with was, "I'm not in the censorship business," before pivoting to criticize President Trump's language.

"Generationally, that would not be language I would use, but nonetheless, I don’t think we should make a big deal of it," Pelosi said, adding that what Tlaib said was "nothing worse" than what's come out of the president's mouth.

What I want to know is why isn’t she wearing a headscarf, hajib, mini-burkha, whatever. Isn’t that what good moslem women wear?? At least, that is what they tell us — Hajib Day and all that. Where are the moslem men demanding she stay inside, not go out without a male relative, not drive, etc.?? Inquiring minds.....................

8 US Code 1182, refers to inadmissible aliens, written in 1952. It was passed by a Democrat controlled Congress, House and Senate, and signed by a Democrat president.

REFERENCE---Muslims were banned from immigrating to the United States in 1952 via provisions of the currently in-force US Immigration and Nationality Ac that passed June 27, 1952 revised the laws relating to immigration, naturalization, and nationality for the United States. That act, which became Public Law 414, established both the law and the intent of Congress regarding the immigration of Aliens to the US and remains in effect today.

Found in Chapter 2 Section 212, is the prohibition of entry to the US if the Alien belongs to an organization seeking to overthrow the government of the United States by “force, violence, or other unconstitutional means.” This, by its very definition, rules out Islamic immigration to the United States.

Islamic immigration to the U.S. is prohibited under this law because the Koran, Sharia Law and the Hadith all require complete submission to Islam, which is antithetical to the US government, the Constitution, and to the Republic. All Muslims who believe that the Koran is life’s guiding principal also believe in total submission to islam & sharia law. The law states that Aliens who are affiliated with ANY “organization” that advocates the overthrow of the U.S. government are prohibited.

8 US CODE 1182 WAS Used By Carter in 1979 to keep Iranians out of the United States. He also made all Iranian students already here check in, and then he deported a bunch. Seven thousand were found in violation of their visas, 15,000 Iranians were forced to leave the United States, 1979. But those are the facts.

“Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by president. Whenever the president finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, the president may, by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or non-immigrants or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.”

===============================

Pelosi appointed the first Muslim Congressman to a key House intel position.

MEET THE MUSLIM CONGRESSMAN W/ A STRANGLEHOLD ON YOUR SAFETY AND SECURITY

How did Andre Carson get on several major Congressional intel committees? Rep Andre Carson (Dem-Indiana) is a member of (A) the House Intelligence and (B) House Homeland Security Committees. Carson is also ranking member of the (C) House intelligence subcommittee on Emerging Threats, which oversees the (D) Office of the Director of National Intelligence. The subcommittee oversight extends to the (E) National Counterterrorism Center and (F) information-sharing programs. (The first elected Muslim---Cong Keith Ellison---is co-chair of the DNC.)

Rep Andre Carson, an Indiana Democrat----is the second Muslim elected to Congress-----and the first Muslim on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. Carson sits on several high level security committees: (A) the House Intelligence, and, (B) House Homeland Security Committees. Carson is also (C) ranking member of the House intelligence subcommittee on Emerging Threats, which oversees (D) the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. The subcommittee oversight extends to (E) the National Counterterrorism Center and information-sharing programs.

==============================================

SHOCKING To get these important committee appointments, Andre Carson has to be bringing in serious money for Democrats-----monies required by the DNC. These high-level committee appointments are "positions for sale." Every appointment has a dollar amount attached to it that Members desiring the positions are required to raise. Taxpayers demand to know if Carson is channeling Islamicist cash directly into the DNC.

=======================================

NOTE---Democrat Cong Andre Carson employed the Paki spy team and is buddy-buddy w/ the Paki spies. Eye-witnesses report Carson and Imran---a tax-paid US govt employee---passed the time away playing video games in Carson's Congressional office......and that the Paki was taching Carson a foreign language.

You miss the point

She’s treading on Maxine’s turf.

Her language and impeachment are definitely black issues and a wacko islamist is not allowed to horn in.

Next thing you know she’ll be using the word axed

You mean like the "respect" the FBI showed President Trump when Comey tried to blackmail him with the dossier? Or the respect Strzok showed when he assured his girl friend he'd stop Trump from being President.

List of United States representatives expelled, censured, or reprimanded for:

<><> disloyalty to the US;
<><> supporting groups advocating the overthrow of the US govt,
<><> insulting the House with unparliamentary language,
<><> outburst towards a President.

The United States Constitution (Article 1, Section 5)[1] gives the House of Representatives the power to expel any member by a two-thirds vote. Expulsion of a Representative is rare: only five members of the House have been expelled in its history, all of whom were members of the Democratic Party. Three of those five were expelled in 1861 for joining the Confederate States of America.

However, the House has other, less severe measures with which to discipline members. Censure and reprimand are procedures in which the House may vote to express formal disapproval of a member’s conduct. Only a simple majority vote is required. Members who are censured must stand in the well of the House chamber to receive a reading of the censure resolution.

A reprimand was once considered synonymous with censure, but in 1976 the House defined a reprimand as a less severe punishment. Members who are reprimanded are not required to stand in the well of the house and have the resolution read to them.

Elijah Cummings said Rashita spoke too soon: "We need to be patient" .......whatever that means.

It means every Democrat knows the plan, but no one's supposed to talk about it until given "the signal".......

He claims “following the fats” while NOT following any facts.

The fats are that Hillary and Obama ILLEGALLY used the government to commit insurrection and overthrow an election.

When even Cummings is throwing you under the bus, you know you screwed up. But I’m glad this Muslim piece of trash said what she said. She now moved herself as well as that Cortez chick with the big teeth into the forefront of the Democrat party. They and trash like them, are the new face of today’s liberal Democrats.

She should be asked publicly if she actually used the exact language in speaking to her child. Either it is a lie, or she truly is a vulgarian. She loses both ways.

Of course nobody in the village has no problem with what the vulgar demokrap bully with a microphone shouted to a child or to anyone else, whether or not it was true. They all believe and agree with what she said. The establishment demokraps are trained socialists, and know to continue to seize power one must talk about impeachment in a “non-offending” way. The trap on the deplorables will be sprung at a later date.

PS - This vulgarian made her statement at a Moveon.org event, the very (demokrap) organization that was born to get the US to move on from the impeachment and legal problems of WJC. How its mission has changed.

“”You can’t accomplish very much of anything unless you have civility and show respect for your colleagues,” Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD) said. “Those kind of comments do not take us in the right direction.””

But that comment exposed the true character of the one who made it.
