The Democrat Party has an anti-semitism problem, and Rashida Tlaib just reminded us why.
This week Tlaib falsely accused Israel of being an “apartheid state” that those who “hold progressive values” can’t support.
This isn’t the first time Tlaib has used anti-semitic tropes when describing Israel. In addition to calling Israel a “violent apartheid system” before, Tlaib has also said that said she got a “calming feeling ” when discussing the Holocaust and that the United States needs to stop “enabling” Israel while Hamas was firing rockets at civilians.
But instead of making it clear those comments have no place in their party, Joe Biden has thanked Tlaib for being a “fighter” that he admires.
Bottom Line: With the Jewish High Holidays just around the corner, Democrats like Tlaib are going out of their way to attack Israel and antagonize Jewish Americans. Jewish Americans will make it clear how they feel about these shameful, anti-Semitic attacks at the ballot box in November.
