The is a lot of competition for the title, but Representative Rashida Tlaib (D-Jihad) is making a strong case for herself as the most disgusting member of Congress. During the public testimony by Michael Cohen, she dehumanized a black woman who was sitting behind Rep. Mark meadows, calling her a “prop” – an infamy that denies the possibility of human agency to a black woman who disagrees with her. You see, in this worldview, black people are so stupid that they can’t come to their own political conclusions, and must be pawns of white people if they disagree with her.
It looks to me as though the black chair of the committee, Elijah Cummings (D-Md) was startled and quite possible offended by this sterotype of black people:
When asked by Chairman Elijah Cummings to clarify her position, she said:
"I am not calling the gentleman, Mr. Meadows, a racist for doing so. I'm saying that in itself, it is a racist act."
Meadows responded: "There's nothing more personal to me than my relationship – my nieces and nephews are people of color. Not many people know that. You know that, Mr Chairman. And to indicate that I asked someone who is a personal friend of Trump family, who has worked for him, who knows this particular individual (pointing to Cohen), that she's coming in to be a prop, it's racist to suggest that I asked her to come in here for that reason."
Cummings, trying to diffuse the situation, thanked Meadows and called him one of his best friends on the committee. "I know that shocks a lot of people," he added. He also said that he did not think Tlaib meant to call Meadows racist.

What does she think SHE IS but a prop?......................
This ‘prop’ went of Fox to set the record straight and call out Cohen.
She's a former friend of Michael Cohen who told us definitively that The Crook Mueller got Cohen to "flip" by threatening to put Cohen's wife in jail for 30 years.
The Muslim Flip Wilson doll.
Remember after 9/11 when everyone declared “we will not forget”? I think we have forgotten.
Glad to see it jammed right back down her throat...
A muslim inbred retarded idiot. Muslims should not be allowed in America.
Horse Hockey. This is a poor attempt to shut down the debate. Providing an example of a black person appointed to a position of authority follows the rules of evidence and degrades the initial argument.
So is Rashida a muslim ‘prop’?
I think blacks call them props. Whites call the quota makers. Either way it is disrespectful. We as humans like to call people names when we disagree.
Funny how Marks “best friend” twisted the knife by convincing this willing idiot that she did not call him a racist.
Lefties have no decency left.
So hiring a black person is evidence of racism, not hiring a black person is evidence of racism, not handing your money over to other who didn’t work for it is a form of racism, having a better job than someone is racism and white privilege. Got it.
Republicans being in charge is racist. Put the Dems back in charge to hand out patronage and everything will be on the up and up.
Doubling down on hate and bigotry — that’s all a racist Hussein Head knows how to do.
She needs to be expelled from the party and impeached. This is blatant racist hate speech by the very definition of it.
Resign NOW, MoFo Tlaib!!!
Any Republican would have been gone weeks ago (before her latest attack on Americans).
