The House passed a GOP-led resolution on Tuesday to censure Rep. Rashida Tlaib over comments critical of Israel and in support of Palestinians amid Israel’s war against Hamas.
The move amounts to a rare and significant rebuke of the Michigan Democrat, who is the first Palestinian-American woman to serve in Congress. The vote was 234 to 188 with four Republicans voting against and 22 Democrats voting in support of the censure resolution.
The resolution, which was introduced by Georgia GOP Rep. Rich McCormick, advanced earlier in the day after a Democratic-led effort to block the measure failed.

What is she laying about exactly?
See the problem is many people don’t consider Palestine as an occupied land. However, people who are from there, and those who read history, know that it is occupied. The fact that a kid need to go through 17 check points to access school ( west bank ), or not being able to be in the same bus as other Israelis (other region), or not granted essentials of live ( electricity only available 4 or 6 hours a day in Gaza for the last couple of years before this attack) are clear signs of people being occupied.
Not only Palestinian Arabs, but also Christians, and black jew suffers under this occupation.
They literally took Yemenian jew families kids from them, estimated number are between 1000 to 5000 kids. Many disappear with no documentation…
So yes please, librate the land from the river to the sea…
Dude… what you just said really hurt my feelings. Your phrase “let me guess” is used by anti-Palestinians all over the world, and what they really mean is “let me guess, you believe Palestinians are actual humans.”
It’s about time people F off with the antisemtic tripe. She was literally advocating for equality and peace, and here the Israeli lobby wants to censure speech that they are offended by because it calls for equality and peace.
