It’s not just brother marrying Ilhan Omar who is a major anti-Semite elected this past election cycle. Don’t forget about Michigan’s Democrat Rashida Tlaib. She has tweeted and written and spewed plenty of anti-Semitic crap in her past too. Tlaib even penned an op-ed for none other than Louis Farrakhan a few years ago. The socialist Democrat truly are the new Nazi party. The Nazi party of Germany was a socialist party, just like today’s Democrats.

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D., Mich.) wrote in 2006 an op-ed for the Final Call, Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan’s publication known for espousing anti-Semitism.
Tlaib’s piece focused on how legal immigrants should not be deported for minor criminal offenses, according to a report from journalist Jeryl Bier. At the end of her article, the now freshman congresswoman is identified as an “advocacy coordinator of the Arab Community Center for Economic and Social Services (ACCESS) in Detroit.” Tlaib has not written in the Final Call since then.
Tlaib has come under fire since her election to Congress for ties to individuals and groups that have espoused anti-Semitic views. In January, she attended a private dinner after her swearing-in with Abbas Hamideh, a “Palestinian right of return” activist who has called Israel a “terrorist entity.” Hamideh has also tweeted that Israel has a “delusional ISIS-like ideology” and that the creation of the country was a “crime.”
In late January, Tlaib advocated against Sen. Marco Rubio’s (Fla.) bill concerning Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement against Israel, which would allow state and local governments to boycott companies that boycott Israel. Tlaib called the bill an “anti-First Amendment, anti-speech bill,” in an interview for the Intercept‘s “Deconstructed” podcast.
