Here it comes: Rep. Tlaib blasts Dem leadership
American Thinker ^ | April 14, 2019 | Thomas Lifson

The first overt sign of the trouble that lies ahead for Nancy Pelosi and the Democrat leadership with the emergence of a radical Muslim wing of the party arrived Saturday.

Following the discovery of a video clip of Rep. Omar referring to 911 as “some people did something,” the blowback has been fierce, including in deep blue New York City, where the wounds of death and destruction (and lingering health issues among first responders) still are very painful. Rep. Tlaib is not happy with what she perceives as inadequate support for her fellow Muslima in Congress, and extended the criticism on this specific issue by another Twitter user into a broader attack on the party leadership:

They put us in photos when they want to show our party is diverse. However, when we ask to be at the table, or speak up about issues that impact who we are, what we fight for & why we ran in the first place, we are ignored. To truly honor our diversity is to never silence us.

The attacks on @IlhanMN and subsequent lack of support from Democratic leadership continues to prove that this system was never meant for us.

Do not applaud diversity and the “first” Muslims in any space if you’re not willing to be a true ally and defend us.#IStandwithIlhan

Bend over backwards, and they’ll kick you in your arched a$$. I’m relieved that Nancy’s sucking up wasn’t enough for Tlaib. Watch the fireworks. Pass the popcorn.

Yep, even Democrats know when the Muslima said 9/11 was “some people” doing “something”, she meant Israel’s Mossad blew up the towers, and most Dems don’t want to go there, at least out loud.

Can you imagine the inner turmoil of Pelosi and Schumer and others who kept their lips tightly closed as young twits arrogantly elbowed past them in January, 2019 on the first couple of days?

Instead of AOC and others saying to Pelosi:
“It is an honor to learn from your experience and benefit from your leadership here. Someday we hope to attain what you have attained through your service to the Party and our country. For now just tell us how we can work with you. “

What a laugh. AOC and the others think they can do it all based on speed reading a pamphlet “How A Bill Goes From an Idea to a Law” given to Capitol tourists.

The Islamist know their place within the Democrat party and among the SJWs the Dems follow.

Their place is at the top.

They take everyone Prisoner, including their SJW followers.

Sanctuary cities must take illegals with all their warts.

The Dem party for similar reasons, must accept muslims and all their warts too.
