Rashida Tlaib’s Father Revealed Truth of Her Election Win in Resurfaced Article

/1 Comment/in , , /by

In a March 11, 2010 newspaper article in The Detroit News, Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s (D-MI) father accused her of lying “big-time to get elected” by falsifying her address on an election affidavit.

Tlaib’s father, Harbi Elabed, made the accusations against Tlaib, who at the time was a freshman state-level representative from the 12th District in Detroit’s Southwest side. The newspaper article was scrubbed from the internet when The Detroit News migrated to a new website but was available in a subscription-based digital archive. The Detroit News reported:

He said his daughter misrepresented her residency when she signed an election affidavit in 2008 with the Wayne County Clerk claiming she was a citizen of Detroit.

According to that affidavit, Tlaib claimed she lived at 9123 Rathbone in Detroit. That house is owned in part by her father, Harbi Elabed, and he now says she did not live there and he was only recently made aware that she had claimed so.

“She lied,” Elabed said. “She lied big-time to get elected. I never teach her that way. I teach her the right way. It’s my house. She didn’t live there. She lived in Dearborn in her house with her husband and boy.” (Read more from “Rashida Tlaib’s Father Revealed Truth of Her Election Win in Resurfaced Article” HERE)

Here’s Why Rashida Tlaib Was ‘Really Afraid’ of Fellow Americans

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Democratic Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib revealed in an interview she was “terrified” for herself and her family after the Sept. 11 terror attacks that left nearly 3,000 Americans dead.

“I was probably in my second year of law school when 9/11 happened and I was really terrified of what was going to happen to my husband, who was only a green card holder at the time,” Tlaib said during an interview with “Makers,” a media company founded to “accelerate the women’s movement.”

“I immediately called my brothers and told them to be very careful who you hang out with,” she continued. “Telling my sisters ‘just be real careful out there’ and being really afraid of my fellow Americans.”

Tlaib, along with fellow Democratic Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar, became America’s first Muslim congresswomen when sworn into office in January. Their time in office has been embroiled in allegations of anti-Semitism and anti-American sentiments.

The controversy kicked off after Omar delivered the keynote speech at a fundraiser for the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) on March 23. A video from the event was uncovered weeks later where Omar was shown urging Muslim Americans to “raise hell” and “make people uncomfortable.” Omar faced backlash after a part of the speech surfaced where she described the Sept. 11 attacks as merely an event where “some people did something.” (Read more from “Here’s Why Rashida Tlaib Was ‘Really Afraid’ of Fellow Americans” HERE)

Rashida Tlaib Quietly Unfollowed a Grossly Anti-Semitic Instagram Page

/0 Comments/in , /by

With freshman congresswoman Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) stealing all the anti-Semitic headlines, of late, fellow anti-Semite and fellow freshman congresswoman Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) has managed to fly by relatively under the radar. This, notwithstanding that Tlaib has longstanding ties with Hezbollah activists, quite literally wipes Israel off her congressional office maps, and exuberantly associates with the self-hating “Jewish” group, IfNotNow. . .

Now, as Ashley Rae Goldenberg reports for Capital Research Center, Tlaib quietly and without official comment unfollowed a vehemently anti-Semitic Instagram page that she had been previously following. According to Goldenberg, the account, “free.palestine.1948,” frequently shares “blatantly anti-Semitic posts and 9/11 conspiracy theories,” including posts that “compar[e] Jews to vermin and Hitler…assert[] Jews wield an enormous amount of power, and…claim[] Israel ‘did’ 9/11 and supports ISIS.”

As Goldenberg reported on Friday, the “free.palestine.1948” Instagram page once shared a meme about the “Rothschild-Israel Occult Connection” that was borrowed from an anti-Semitic site whose site manager claims that he “wish[es] to warn how Jewry is destroying Christianity throughout the world.” Other posts have included overt blood libel references and horrific, vile falsehoods about Israeli Jews sucking the blood out of Palestinian-Arab children. . .

Over the weekend, following Goldenberg’s report, Tlaib quietly unfollowed the bigoted Instagram page. Goldenberg reports today:

On Friday, the Capital Research Center (CRC) exposed Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) who was following an inflammatory anti-Semitic Instagram account. After the original report, Tlaib quietly unfollowed the account and stealthily edited her Instagram bio to say she does not support “all” of the posts of the accounts she chooses to follow. Tlaib’s communications director told CRC the office has “no comment” on the matter.
