Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib is facing criticism after joining pro-Hamas demonstrators at Wayne State University in Detroit, where an autonomous zone encampment for Gaza was established. The demonstrators reportedly prevented Jewish students and police from entering the campus. Tlaib also recently spoke at a conference featuring Palestinian terrorists, which was funded by a billionaire affiliated with the Chinese Communist Party. Michigan Senator Gary Peters condemned the event, stating there is no place for violent rhetoric. Most other Michigan Democrats, including Rep. Elissa Slotkin, avoided commenting. Calls for Tlaib's censure and removal from Congress have been made by various political figures, who have labeled her actions as anti-American and antisemitic.
"It is beyond alarming that a U.S. Senate candidate and sitting member of Congress employs political staff who associate with Louis Farrakhan" - @LioraRez of StopAntisemitism Terra DeFoe must be fired immediately @RepSlotkin More from @FoxNews here: https://t.co/FffwOcYYsQ
Notable Michigan Democrat -- DSCC chairman/Sen. Gary Peters, responsible for electing Dem senators -- speaks up against RASHIDA TLAIB appearance at terror-linked conference. Most other Michigan Dems avoided comment to JI, including Rep. Elissa Slotkin. https://t.co/RWa7UfsZBg
BREAKING @J_Insider / @emilyfjacobs: "Michigan Sen. Gary Peters slams terror-linked conference Rep. Tlaib addressed: ‘There is no place for violent rhetoric’" "Tlaib spoke alongside guests who advocated for violence against Israel and defended the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks"…
CCP HENCHMAN FUNDS DETROIT TERROR EXPO // A billionaire affiliate of the Chinese Communist Party sponsored a pro-Hamas confab headlined by @RashidaTlaib & featuring calls to "bring down this empire [the US] with 1 million cuts.” Psyop or not – antisemitism endangers America. https://t.co/TZ2hEcUeAn
Rep. Tlaib has repeatedly demonstrated she’s anti-American and pro-terrorist. It’s past time she’s removed from Congress! https://t.co/qMdQKcqzTm
TERROR: A sitting member of Congress @RashidaTlaib joined pro-Palestine occupiers at Wayne State in preventing Jewish students and police from entering the public university’s campus. Her actions were illegal and she would be censured by @SpeakerJohnson. https://t.co/ohfLXTjhRZ
At @waynestate in Detroit, congresswoman @RashidaTlaib joined pro-Hamas rioters in surrounding a vehicle near an autonomous zone encampment for Gaza. The lawmaker spoke at a conference just days ago that featured Palestinian terrorists. https://t.co/z20zogyFPW
