Not that this will mean anything.

Twenty-two Democrats voted with 212 Republicans to censure Tlaib. Four GOP lawmakers voted against the measure. Four lawmakers voted present. The measure was introduced by freshman Rep. Rich McCormick, R-Ga., on Monday.


"If this is not worthy of censure, what is? When you can call for the annihilation of a country and its people, if that's not worthy of a censure, what is?" McCormick said on the House floor Tuesday.

In the text of his resolution, the Georgia Republican accused Tlaib of "promoting false narratives regarding the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel and for calling for the destruction of the state of Israel."

Tlaib, the only Palestinian American in Congress, has come under bipartisan criticism after sharing a video on social platform X that included the phrase "From the river to the sea," a pro-Palestinian liberation slogan.

Her critics have pointed out that the rallying cry implicitly calls for the destruction of Israel as a state. Hamas has also co-opted the phrase.

"It is fundamentally a call for a Palestinian state extending from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea, territory that includes the State of Israel, which would mean the dismantling of the Jewish state," the Anti-Defamation League's website says. "It is an antisemitic charge denying the Jewish right to self-determination, including through the removal of Jews from their ancestral homeland."


Tlaib has remained unrepentant over her use of the phrase.

"It is important to separate people and governments," she said on the House floor earlier in the day. "The idea that criticizing the Israeli government is antisemitic sets a dangerous precedent."

Rashida Tlaib again mentions the one case of violence against Muslims. She does not mention the hundreds of antisemitic incidents, including a 65-year-old Jewish man just clubbed to death by one of her cousins.

For Cori Bush, there are only five words that matter:


She did say some other stupid words in between those. She huffed like her 22" neck was giving her a good dose of sleep apnea, and then refused to shut her fat ugly mouth when she was out of time.

If you're thinking "Quick, let's let all the Palestinians into the US to sow chaos, murder, backwardness and the miserable poverty it causes here like they do with their own shithole," brother, Representative Jayapal is on your wavelength!


Senator Cruz reposted that with a brief commentary: "Hell. No."
