'The Squad' member and progressive Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., has caused numerous controversies when talking about Israel, Palestine, and more.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., has been accused of racism and anti-Semitism for a number of comments that were largely defended by liberal media outlets.Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich.
Former Democratic National Committee head Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., also criticized Tlaib, and said in a Wednesday tweet that calling people’s progressive credentials into question over their support of Israel is an"outrageous progressive litmus test" and"nothing short of anti-Semitic." The writer claimed Democrats were attacking Tlaib for something she"never said," and accused Democrats of conflating Israel’s current government with the actual state of Israel.
Tlaib’s comment immediately drew outrage from across the political spectrum, with people taking particular issue with the congresswoman’s use of the word"calming."Just days later, a Washington Post analysis by Amber Phillips titled"Republicans are ignoring the reality to twist Rep. Tlaib’s ‘calming’ Holocaust remarks," fired back at critics of the progressive Democrat.
Tlaib did in fact also say that she recently"celebrated" the Holocaust, but quickly altered her wordings to say she"took a moment" to remember the Holocaust.
