Tlaib: It’s a ‘shame’ colleagues more focused on ‘silencing me’ than saving lives

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) in a Tuesday statement criticized her colleagues’ attempts to silence her, saying they were more focused on controlling her words than saving the lives of people in Gaza under siege from Israel’s attack on Hamas.

The House later Tuesday is expected to vote on two separate measures censuring Tlaib over remarks she has made about the Israel-Gaza war.

“It’s a shame my colleagues are more focused on silencing me than they are on saving lives, as the death toll in Gaza surpasses 10,000. Many of them have shown me that Palestinian lives simply do not matter to them, but I still do not police their rhetoric or actions,” Tlaib wrote in a Tuesday statement.

Actually Biden is supporting Israel much more than expected, so much so that Obama came out publicly against his policy. Kirby was quoted today in the israeli press as supporting Israel regarding the “ceasefire” issue, and even Fetterman was noted as displaying the photos of each Israeli hostage until their liberation. This goes very, very, deep and each soul will be tested.

There is no hiding place for antisemites of any party.

I think it would be really cool if she walked into congress and sat down in the middle of the democrat side of the isle.

The detonated her suicide vest with 5 pounds of C-4 plastic explosive and 20 pounds of ball bearings and nails.
