On Tuesday, Fox News correspondent Hillary Vaughn found anti-Semitic Democrat Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib in the hallway of the U.S. Capitol and asked her a simple question in light of Tlaib’s silence on the horrific terrorist attacks against Israel: “Do you have a comment on Hamas terrorists chopping off babies' heads?” She refused to answer Tlaib’s questions and instead walked away in silence. All three networks ignored this disgusting display during their Wednesday evening news broadcasts. During Fox News Channel’s America’s Newsroom Wednesday, co-anchor Dana Perino aired the footage from Vaughn’s encounter with Tlaib.
“Many Democrats are openly supporting the Palestinians including Michigan Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib who refused to condemn the savagery of the terrorist attacks. Fox Business’s Hillary Vaughn pressed the lawmaker who also planted a Palestinian flag outside her Capitol Hill office,” Perino said.
Vaughn asked Tlaib “Congresswoman, terrorists have cut off babies' heads and burned children alive. Do you support Israel's right to defend themselves against this brutality?” Her question was met with silence.
“You can't comment about Hamas terrorists chopping off babies' heads? Congresswoman, do you have a comment on Hamas terrorists chopping off babies' heads?,” Vaughn asked sternly. “You have nothing to say about Hamas terrorists chopping off babies' heads?”
Still nothing but silence from Tlaib as she kept walking away from Vaughn. “Do you condone what Hamas has done chopping off babies' heads, burning children alive, and raping women in the street?,” Vaughn asked again.
As Tlaib began to walk into the elevator, Vaughn shot off questions rapid fire: “You have no comment about children's heads being chopped off? Congresswoman, why do you have a Palestinian flag outside your office if you do not condone what Hamas terrorists have done to Israel? Do Israeli lives not matter to you?”
Tlaib said not one word the entire time. Fantastic intrepid reporting by Vaughn and shameful bias by omission from the three networks.
