Rashida Tlaib Slapped With $2 Million Lawsuit For Alleged Battery, Assault Of Laura Loomer
Laura Loomer ^ | 08-23-2019 | Alicia Powe

“Hate-filled anti-Semitic” Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) is being sued for $2 million after the freshman congresswoman attacked investigative reporter Laura Loomer during a campaign event in 2018.

The conservative non-profit Freedom Watch and its general counsel Larry Klayman, a former federal prosecutor, filed the complaint on behalf of Loomer on Friday, charging Tlaib with assault and battery and religious discrimination.

Tlaib, who adamantly supports boycotting Israel and has been repeatedly slammed by President Donald Trump for “hating Jews,” is seen assaulting Loomer, a female Jewish journalist, during a rally during her Congressional run.

I’m really glad to see Laura is getting some support. She put herself in harms way to to the journalistic work the conventional media ignores and got herself banned and deplatformed everywhere for her trouble.

She deserves some help. And justice.

Maybe /j for joke? The /s tag didn’t bother me. This is a blog not a legal brief or contract.

I’d like to see muzzies in America try that sharia garbage on US citizens, although they seem to be getting away with FGM liking it as similar to circumcision.

“I am entitled by Sharia Law to assault Laura Loomer or kill her if I so desire, she is a Jew.”

No matter how implausible the satirical comment may be, the reality, in these times, tends to be even more bizarre than the satire.

While the Congresswoman never made the quoted statement (at least in a public forum), I expect that she most certainly would agree with in it private.

She should not be in Congress - or even in this country.

Laura Loomer is Tlaib’s equal-but-opposite counterpart.

Loomer is as much a biased, grandstanding, stunt-pulling attention whore as Tlaib, and, like Tlaib, her politics are the politics of retaliation & retribution.

Her “journalism” is liaded with overwrought adjectives and misleading nonsense and is indistinguishable from the fake news style of the DNC.

Now she’s running for office? Puke. She wants a soapbox to grind her personal axes, just like Tlaib. Representatives are supposed to represent the mainstream public & the best interests of the USA.

Personally, I find Loomer’s habit of posting her own carefully airbrushed glamor-shot next to a noticeably less attractive photo of whoever she’s beefing with, to be manipulative and insulting to me as a woman, as if she’s suggesting ideological / moral superiority can somehow be inferred based on sexual attractiveness.

AFAIC, Loomer & Tlaib should be tossed on the same junk heap. They’re both creeps.

Thanks for the info. I did not know this about Laura Loomer before. I’m still rooting for her over Tlaib.

How soon before Pelosi, Schumer, and all the Democrats running for President start clamoring about attempts to intimidate a Muslim Congresswoman of color, etc. And the NYTimes comes out with a scathing editorial?

If you do a search on that quote I think you would find that there’s no evidence that Churchill said that.

“loomer will probably now be contacted by the muslim brotherhood with a ‘friendly visit’- this is likely why so many conservatives roll over when they try to defend themselves against muslims in congress-”

In my state, we have the mooslim garbage camps under surveillance by our sheriff. If they sneeze, we know who did it and what time.

Yeah, I hope so- all it would take is one time for the muslim in such camps to do something- but we as a nation have to be on guard 24/7 against them- they have the unfair advantage-
