Rashida Tlaib (D-Khan Younis) was one of only 10 House members who refused to join the rest in condemning the atrocities carried out by Hamas on October 7. Instead, apparently unmoved by those reports of child killings, mass rape, torture, mutilation, and murder, Tlaib has continued to associate with Hamas-linked supporters, including six of her main fundraisers who have close ties to Hamas. Tlaib is also part of a hidden Facebook group — the Palestinian-American Congress — that has praised the jihadists who kidnapped and killed hundreds of civilians, including at least 33 Americans, on October 7. The founder of the group is Maher Abdel-Qader, who has referred to Israelis as “not real Jews” and questioned whether the Holocaust really happened.
The Facebook group, which Tlaib joined six years ago, has proudly posted several images of Hamas fighters following the terror group’s assault on October 7 that left at least 1,200 dead across southern Israel.
Now Tlaib has just addressed an anti-Israel conference put on by people connected to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), a group which, like Hamas, has been designated by the American government as a “Foreign Terrorist Organization” (FTO). She was the surprise guest speaker, and star attraction, at the “People’s Conference for Palestine” held in Detroit on May 25. The organizers of that conference, and many of her fellow speakers, have been linked to the PFLP. Tlaib apparently had no qualms about appearing with them.
Others, however, think that her appearance at that recent PFLP-linked event was the last straw, and that Tlaib ought to be expelled from Congress for her close and unrepentant association with operatives linked to both-Hamas and PFLP. More on her possible expulsion, now being pushed by Congressman Mike Lawler (R.-NY), can be found here: “Lawler: Remove Rashida Tlaib from Congress for Speech at Conference Linked to Terror Group,” by Elizabeth Weibel, Breitbart,
Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) called for Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) to be “removed from Congress” over a speech she gave at an anti-Israel conference that was linked to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), a U.S.-designated Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO).
Tlaib had given a speech at the People’s Conference for Palestine in Detroit, Michigan, on Saturday. The event that Tlaib spoke at featured speakers who were linked to the PFLP.
Lawler wrote in a post on X that Tlaib “should be removed from Congress immediately.”
“Associating with and speaking before groups that are funded by US designated terrorist organizations is disqualifying,” Lawler added.
Sana’ Daqqah, who was married to PFLP terrorist Walid Daqqah, was the keynote speaker at the conference. Another speaker was Wisam Rafeedie, an activist with ties to the PFLP, according to the National Review…
A November 2023 report from the Canary Mission found that Tlaib was connected to six activists linked to Hamas, the U.S.-designated terror organization behind the October 7, 2023, attack on Israel which left 1,200 people dead and more than 200 people taken hostage.
Canary Mission can confirm that at least 6 Hamas-linked activists fundraised for Tlaib during her 2018 Congressional campaign: Mwafaq Jbara, Sheikh Muhammad Qatanani, Huwaida Arraf, Salah Sarsour, Rafeeq Jaber and Abdelbaset Hamayel….
In her first Congressional campaign, in 2018, Tlaib relied heavily for fundraising on those six “Hamas-linked activists” named by the pro-Israel group Canary Mission. She has not severed her ties to those fundraisers even after the Hamas atrocities of October 7. 2023.
Since the October 7 atrocities by Hamas, Rashida Tlaib has doubled down on her support for the terrorist group. She was one of only ten members of the House of Representatives who refused to condemn Hamas for those acts. She still refuses to express even mild displeasure with the group. Nor has she tried to distance herself from the PFLP, like Hamas a “US-designated foreign terrorist organization,” instead making a surprise appearance at their recent Detroit conference, as their star speaker, at her pugnacious ease among so many members and supporters of the PFLP.
If a resolution for her removal from Congress is voted on, every Republican representative, and a great many Democrats too, should be willing to approve it, for Tlaib has gone far beyond even her Squad colleague Ilhan Omar in her brazen connections to people with deep links to both terror groups, Hamas and the PFLP. There will be no downside to voting against this tremendously unpleasant and wildly disliked Congresswoman. Even fellow “Progressives” try to distance themselves from her over-the-top remarks, including her frequent denunciations of her own government.. Go to it, Congressman Lawler. Overwhelmingly, the electorate will support you.

I have seen reports of this on a few different news pages; and have been wondering if anyone was taking notice.
Kick her out, way out. The ugly snake gets paid by taxpayers to represent American citizens, not mozlum terror groups and their serpentine members.
The ‘holy-land foundation’ was put on trial and the members found guilty of supporting hamas. r tlaib is no different. She is guilty of supporting hamas and other terrorist groups. Behind bars is where she should be.
Mt. Trump may spend time in prison for the *crime* of opposing bo, biden and their henchpeople. tlaib should be in prison for supporting terror, aiding and abetting terrorists.
She’s in the House in order to bring it down from within.

If politicians and their electorate are stupid enough to import Muslims, not to mention a Muslim invasion, into your non-Muslim society and country you will get Muslim politicians.
Their agenda is only to introduce and spread Islam, and its cult of hate, anyway they can. They go for the jugular vein of your non-Muslim society.
Wellington says
This horrible woman is indeed disturbing and vile but far more disturbing and vile is that the Democratic Party will do nothing to remove her from Congress.
Tlaib is a symptom. The ultimate cause of this symptom is that the Democratic Party of the USA has turned traitorous and is perfectly fine with Tlaib, a southern border in utter chaos, crime rampant in American cities, faulting Israel again and again with zero evidence, spending trillions of dollars we don’t have, weaponizing the justice system in America, et al.
I often wonder what it will take for far more people in America to realize just how awful Islam is. Ditto for the modern Democratic Party. Both are a menace to America but the Democratic Party is by far the greater menace. Yes, what will it take?
Mass desertion from the Democratic Party should be occurring but it isn’t. This is ominous.

Wellington,
Tragic beyond tragic, your post is 100% true.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
You are right. What Hugh is hoping for completely ignores the fact that today’s Democrat Party is this century’s version of the CPSU. Domestically, they are out to get rid of the entire bill of rights, & make the US an English speaking version of Venezuela. In foreign policy, they want to pull off a world revolution the same way Leon Trotsky did, except that in this case, they’re not merely after countries changing their economic structures, but their social structures as well
Just like in 1991, the CPSU was banned after the attempted coup against Gorbachev, similarly at some point, the Democrat Party needs to be banned b’cos it’s a criminal organization bent on weaponizing the law against everyone who disagrees w/ it. If we have to remain in a 2-party system, let those 2 be the Republicans and the Libertarians
Walter Sieruk says
Rashida Tlaib is very anti-Jewish and likewise very anti- Israel, as seen in those anti- Israel foreign policies she always keeps on pushing for. Therefore Omar is, in essence, un-American. As former US President, William Howard Taft, wisely, declared in a speech “Anti-Semitism is a noxious weed that should be cut out it has no place in America.”
Related to this is a grand statement in a speech the former President Theodore Roosevelt, rightly, declared, “There can be no fifty-fifty Americanism in this country. There is room here for only one hundred percent Americanism, only for those who are Americans and nothing else.”
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Well, Hugh, neither Rashida nor Ilhan will ever be expelled from Congress. Dems will never vote for it, and thanks to the sociopathic antics of a lot of Jewish Leftists in this country, including organizations such as the ADL, there has resulted a growing crop of anti-Semites in the GOP as well. They would normally express solidarity w/ anti-jihadist forces in Europe, but when it comes to non-Christian countries like Israel or India, they do an about turn & flip to the jihadists
Kevin Kraemer says
She is a treasonous wretch. Her, any family and all of her minions should be jailed for life as she etal harbor resentment and disdain for our great Republic. The spineless jellyfish who allow her to stay is at fault for allowing this charade to go on as long as it has. Each day that she and her cohorts remain in office drags us closer to the abyss of the point of no return caving into their demands of sharia. It must be stopped at all costs.
OLD GUY says
Hell with EXPEL her from Congress EXPEL her from the country. She HATES America and our people so remove her.
JustJim says
The fact that Congress has allowed this mozlum pos to remain, tells me that the uniparty is alive an well, and living in the swamp.
RG says
As much as I hate her I don’t think legally they can expel her. Unless she’s been convicted in a court of law that’s the only way to get rid of a member of congress. Like Ohio congressman James Trafficant in the early 2000’s. The only reason he was expelled was because he was convicted and sent to prison for financial crimes. That’s why there’s so few congressmen expelled. Unless someone knows something I don’t.
somehistory says
r tlaib committed fraud to get elected. she cavorts with known terrorists….so designated by the Fed government, and should therefore face charges in a court of law. The snake supports the same group that members of the ‘holy-land foundation’ supported and they were tried and sent to prison.
george santos hasn’t been convicted as yet, but was expelled, so tlaib could be also, and then be tried.
Gourdhead says
Never happen. The scum in the House would rather have power over patriotism. They have no stomach for it.
