Iirc, she’s relatively good on Palestine, but fell for the Ukraine propaganda. Ultimately, well meaning, but still largely a lib.
Israel has hypnotized the world; may Allah awaken the people, and help them to see, the evildoing of Israel and the United States!

I don’t really know, I haven’t heard her spoken of in a while. I do know she spoke out against Israel from the start so that’s better than like 95 (or more) percent of U.S. congress. She’s also endorsed by DSA, though I don’t know if that means much considering they still endorse AOC (though last I heard they were debating on whether or not to continue that).
She’s borderline NATO-leftist. Has some based takes but then falls for the Ukraine and Xinjiang propaganda.
We never built her a gundam
I wish she would go Green Party and tell Dems to fuck off.
I’m in her district. I like her. I think there’s reasonable criticisms to make of how much she’s pushed against the right wing of the party, but I think she’s still representing her constituency well and not getting pushed around by the party in the same way as, for example AOC.
rashida is probably the best congressperson, but ilhan is just ok
and even rashida fell for the xinjiang lies

She got censured for saying Israel shouldn’t exist at least
Not that people cannot make mistakes in their judgements and learn from it, but she was a Warren lib who said “Bernie’s ship has sailed” back in 2019 before coming around to endorse Bernie during the heart attack incident.
She’s one of the good ones out there, but can be prone to errors in her judgements. Typical of leftists in Western countries who don’t engage in theory.
Unlike Cory Bush or Jamal Bowman, she’s safe enough in her district to be a waste of AIPAC money.
