Representative Rashida Tlaib (D., Mich.) on Thursday refused to condemn “death to America” chants that featured prominently at a rally in the district she represents.
Last week, at an anti-Israel demonstration in Dearborn, Michigan, local activist Tarek Bazzi led a crowd in chants of “death to America” and “death to Israel,” saying the Jewish state “does not deserve to exist” and celebrating former Iranian ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.
Fox Business reporter Hillary Vaughn approached Tlaib in the halls of the United States Capitol Complex and asked whether the Michigan congresswoman would condemn the chants. Rather than answer Vaughn’s question, Tlaib said she would not talk to Fox News, telling Vaughn that she does not “talk to people that use racist tropes.” When Vaughn continued to press Tlaib, the progressive Democrat continued to accuse Fox of racism.
“I’m talking about your guys’s racist tropes,” she said. “You know, you guys are — you know exactly what you do. And I know you’re Islamophobic, but you guys gotta go deal with it on your own selves. You’re not going to use me.”

Well bless her heart.
In my best Southern drawl.
Send her back to where ever she came from.
Why would a traitor to the United States condemn a “Death to America” chant?
Islam is a war plan
I note she does not give any examples. And apparently Death to America is acceptable, but phantom racist tropes are verboten. How have we allowed trash like her in Congress (and if that's a racist trope I stand by it!)?
I wish!
Of course because she was probably one of the Muzzies that was shouting that.
Peter Doosey has competition for best reporter in DC. ...and both in same family.
Clearly, these are people who hate what they look like. So the project their hate onto those who they wish they looked like. It’s a weird form of reverse racism incorporating everything from low self esteem to racism, etc.
These are very unwell people.
Then, as she’s violated her oath ti uphold the laws of the US, it’s time for her ti be expelled from office.
I don't understand why she can't be kicked out of the House in the first place. She swore to "uphold the Constitution" which she clearly is not. Isn't that grounds enough to kick her out of her seat to send a message?
Islam is a war plan
She is a typical muslim; they will never swear allegiance to America.
Maybe these “death to America and death to Israel” people in Michigan and other states should be striped of their citizenship and deported. That is what Jordan is doing with Hamas related individuals who are fomenting unrest in Jordan.
None of these “people” should have been allowed into America and the politicians that allowed it should be tried for treason.
"Death to America" is implicitly also the slogan of the other religion of peace. I refer to the Democratic Party.
She could’ve just said yes.
Death to evil witches....
