Highlights: The vote was something of a surprise: Tlaib, a staunch liberal who’s been harshly critical of Israel, has few fans in the GOP when it comes to Middle Eastern politics. It’s unclear why several Republicans came to her rescue during Wednesday’s vote.
The censure resolution — sponsored by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) — had accused Tlaib of “leading an insurrection” for her participation in an anti-war protest last month at the Capitol, organized by Jewish groups, which featured scores of arrests.
Pro-Israel Democrats, who might have been inclined to censure Tlaib’s comments, had hammered Greene for her inaccurate characterization of a peace protest — albeit a rowdy one — and for sensationalizing Tlaib’s role in orchestrating it. They were also leery that Greene’s “insurrectionist” language had trivialized the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol by supporters of former President Trump.
Boy, you REALLY dont get this, do you?
She is part of an anti-American movement. His literal job is to crush that movement. It’s in his job description. It’s not a one-on-one thing.
This sounds like those dumbasses who think a rebellion is two armies meeting on a vattle field. It isn’t, and thats why the US army gets its ass kicked on the reg.
Uh huh. Yall cheering for Trumps “Twitter dunks” to be what the president’s job is now, and youre saying I’m confused about what the role is about.
Sure thing man.
That’s not at all what I am endorsing. I am endorsing punishment for anti-American activism.
You REALLY do not understand this.
