Democrat Rep. Tlaib is being slammed for her horrible and highly insensitive statement on the Holocaust. She obviously has tremendous hatred of Israel and the Jewish people. Can you imagine what would happen if I ever said what she said, and says?Tlaib pushed back against criticism from Republicans Sunday, accusing them of attempting “to take my words out of context to push your racist and hateful agenda.

Very convenient how the word definitions in the Liberal's Dictionary morph to mean the opposite of what they mean in Webster's. So don't hate Himmler because Auschwitz gave him a warm feeling. Whip out the Liberal's Dictionary and he'll magically transform into Mother Theresa!

The Left, will eat their own...

Screw the Dems ! The are becoming anti Semitic! Unbelievable! Where is F NANCY amd Chuck? Blow her out of congress!

I am tired of politicians in America fixating on Israel...worry about our own issues such as the devil that reincarnated as realDonaldTrump

Right on cue...Dem backpedaling

These RADICAL muslim dems are pure evil !

Say what you mean, and mean what you say. DipShit

RepRashida

They always twist words around for political reasons, but I never here them say anything against Alt- Right Nationalist attacks toward Synagogues and their racist attacks .

well, she belongs to 2 groups the GOP hates - women and Muslims...

She's very clear where her allegiance is and it is not for anything good happening to Israel and her people.

It's what she said but not what she meant? Alrighty then.....

She is possibly the most ignorant member of Congress. With the evil Democratic Party of today her hatred for Jewish people is an accomplishment. She is an utter disgrace and a horrid woman.

Is her water heavy? She’s mostly being criticized for her antisemitic historical revisionism re: Palestinian ties to hitler, but you keep on trucking. NeverAgain

No matter what she ment it's way over the top Enough resign RashidaTlaib America loves Israel you & AOC and IlhanMN will never change it. we can take stupid things you say if you affect others re-election$ they & SpeakerPelosi won't shelter you any longer MAGA TRUMP2020

Republicans will look for any excuse, or invent an excuse if none exists, to troll a muslim, no matter who it is, and no matter the subject. Disgraceful!

Once more , for the millionth time the Dems show they are the anti-Semites , the racist party.

Rep omar and rep Tlaib need to just stop opening their mouths they are fueling what trump needs. And play right in to him

I'll now assume you'll now give Trump the same credence over his Charlottesville remarks, yes?

“Dry humor” eh

This Congress woman should be removed. She has proved herself over and over where her loyalties lie, as well as Omar, and it isn't with America or Jews! REMOVE THEM!

She means what she says !

She has no fellow Americans only fellow Muslims

Terrifying.

well she wasn't axactly talking about a swimming pool now was she?

Oh yeh? then WTF did she mean by it?

RepublicansPounce

someone says something totally grotesque then says “that’s not what I meant.”...lemme go next: 'slavery was actually good because otherwise, negros would still be in Africa naked with bones thru their noses'...

GOP the party of hatred and greed

Because republicans are russians clearly

There is no reasonable use of “calming feeling” to anything related tothe Holocaust. You attempt at explaining it away is disgusting

Liz Cheney should be ashamed of herself. To intentionally deceive Americans by launching vicious and untrue smears against a fellow human being is reprehensible. She should resign from her position in the RNC

More Republican, Nazi playbook ploys, 'Accuse them of what you are guilty of!' Republicans say they hate 'Liberals' (even the word), except when they liberally spread Trump's bullshit and their own hatred around like fertilizer for their Maga to liberally gobble up like Mana.

Republicans struggling with reading comprehension.

Are these Republicans responding to Trump's love fest today with Orban, whose goal is a Hungary made up only of 'European Christians?'

What she meant was to push her own agenda for the “Palestinians”. Her historical recollection in the rest of her statement is just a series of lies.

There was no reason to take the congresswoman's remarks out of context. What she said was bad enough. As someone who wants her to succeed, I say at the risk of being called bigoted that Rep. Tlaib must learn to speak knowledgeably and recognize the importance of her remarks.

She's a threat to every single American .

Why does politico post this misinformation?

“Policing my words, twisting & turning them to ignite vile attacks on me will not work,” Tlaib said in a tweet. “All of you who are trying to silence me will fail miserably.” - Rep.Tlaib

Wrong

I'm sick and tired of republicans using these comments to lend more play to these unforgiveable remarks by Muslim house members. As far as I'm concerned the GOP and the Muslim women in congress are all anti semitic. You can't say what she said and then say it's not.

they are the words SHE chose to use

Nonetheless, Tlaib & Omar are foolishly naive & absurdly tone deaf. Are they & Trump the best of USA? NO! So it's.... SHITHOLEUSA!

Ironic coming from the folks that pushed the 'There were good people on both sides,' bullshit.

She is an angel.... you wonder why your credibility is in question. Pravda...

She doesn’t know what she meant apparently. Embarrassing from a Democratic member of Congress, who should be better than Trump.

This is patently ridiculous. Please stop.

MAYBE STOP FOCUSING ON THAT ONE OUT OF CONTEXT PHRASE AND ACTUALLY MENTION WHERE SHE WAS ACTUALLY LYING ABOUT THE FCKING HOLOCAUST? mebbe?

Trump desperately trying to change the subject from his TrumpTariffs market crash today. Let's just call it OrangeMonday

It's because folks criticizing her have the reading comprehension of a three-year-old, apprently.

Republicans don't trade in facts...trade in fear. Individual1 lindseyGrahamSC '...they're gonna kill us all...'

This just in: someone says something totally grotesque then says “that’s not what I meant.” More on this at 11

They've obviously ran out of Hate Trump propaganda. Politico has been running this one for days on loop

Congress and the Press should finally speak to “one of the most trusted people in Trump Tower,” a woman who’s “heard everything and taken good notes” and a “go-to person on a lot of projects – I often heard ‘Meredith will take care of it.’”

Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib break with House Democratic leaders on who's to blame for Gaza attacksWhile the monthlong celebration of Ramadan began for Muslims over the weekend, so did the deadliest clashes between Israelis and Palestinians in recent years. It's about time IlhanMN & RashidaTlaib receive praise for being a scarce minority in HouseDemocrats who are willing to speak the truth. The time for treating Israel as 'innocent babes' must come to an end. Israel is as blood thirsty as Hamas. Can you journalism or not? BDS is not 'anti-Israel.' It is pro-Palestinian. Did you side with whites in South Africa in the 1980s, too?
