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.
There has always been a big Zionist influence in the media and politics. It is ridiculous honestly. A repub could get caught saying the N word and they wouldn’t censure them, but don’t you dare say anything negative about Israel.
Republicans could call all jews the k word but as long as they still support Israel, they’d be fine, and probably get aipac donations for it.
