Hamas wing at Pennsylvania's Dickinson College goes after Democrat Senator John Fetterman for his unqualified support for Israel

 Pennsylvania is home to a large Jewish population. Philadelphia, the state's largest city, has the fifth largest Jewish population in the country, according to the Center for Israel.

More.

The article twice says amusingly that Democrat Representative Rashida Tlaib of Michigan was "censored". 

She wasn't. She was censured by the U.S. House of Representatives for what she freely said.

It is unclear from the story whether Mireille Rebeiz, Chair of Middle East Studies and Associate Professor at Dickinson College, Pennsylvania, actually said censored or censured. It is possible she is not correctly quoted. It is also possible she doesn't understand English that well.

Hard to say!

In any event, Newsweek's headline is over the top: "John Fetterman Faces Revolt in Pennsylvania". It's one crank at a college, to which you probably shouldn't send your kid.

Democrat Rashida Tlaib (MI-12) censured for anti-semitism in bipartisan House vote 234-188

From NBC News, here:

 

WASHINGTON — House lawmakers on Tuesday censured Rep. Rashida Tlaib, the sole Palestinian American in Congress, over her remarks and actions in response to the Israel-Hamas war.

The censure resolution, authored by Rep. Rich McCormick, R-Ga., passed 234 to 188, with 22 Democrats voting for it and four Republicans opposing the measure. A censure vote only requires a simple majority to pass.

The resolution censures Tlaib, D-Mich., for “promoting false narratives regarding the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel and for calling for the destruction of the state of Israel.”

"It is a sad fact, but this type of antisemitic hate is being promoted by a small group of members in this body, chiefly Rep. Tlaib," McCormick said on the House floor before the vote. "We must hold her accountable."

The Trump witch hunt continues: Garland's new special counsel is linked to Lois Lerner while the wife is linked to anti-semitic Democrat Rep. Rashida Tlaib

 Mr. Smith set up a meeting in October 2010 with IRS official Lois Lerner “to discuss how the IRS could assist in the criminal enforcement of campaign-finance laws against politically active nonprofits.” ... Federal Election Commission records show that Ms. Chevigny contributed $1,000 each to Mr. Biden’s 2020 campaign, Biden for President and the Biden Victory Fund super PAC, in September 2020. She also donated $150 to a campaign committee supporting Democrat Rashida Tlaib in 2008, when Ms. Tlaib was running for the Michigan House of Representatives.

LOL: CNN calls US House vote supporting 2-state solution and opposing boycott, divestment, sanctions movement "divisive" when it passed 398-17


Roll call vote 497 is here.

The headline is correct in one sense, however: Both hard left and hard right are cracking up.

The former leader of the Rebel Alliance, Justin Amash, ignominiously abandoned the fight to vote "present" with four other courageous Democrats cowardly lions, leaving his wingman Thomas Massie of Kentucky to cast the lone Republican "nay" vote.

Massie strangely thought it a good idea to associate himself with the likes of Democrats AOC, Omar and Tlaib, apparently rushing to fill in for Squad member Ayanna Pressley, who inexplicably abandoned her compatriots and voted "yea", proving once again that the true meaning of libertarianism is the freedom to be anti-Semitic.

The smarter of the Hamas representatives in Congress, Rashida Tlaib (MI-13), is only there because of 900 votes

She is much more vulnerable than her dumber counterpart in MN-5, Ilhan Omar.
