As Twitchy just reported, President Biden was in Michigan today test-driving an electric pickup from Ford and refusing to answer questions from the press on Israel. (He was just teasing about flooring it and running them over if they did.)
On hand in Michigan was Rep. Rashida Tlaib, who has not been happy with the Biden administration’s response to the conflict between Israel and Palestine. CNN chief White House correspondent Kaitlan Collins noted that Biden and Tlaib talked briefly in that empty parking lot.
Upon arrival in Michigan, President Biden was seen talking to Rep. Rashida Tlaib, who has been critical of his stance on Israel. Last night on MSNBC, she said, "I hope my president, our president, speaks up & speaks truth about what exactly is happening because I know they know." pic.twitter.com/vu5etR3UYx

During his remarks later on, Biden told Tlaib, "I admire your intellect. I admire your passion. And I admire your concern for so many other people." He said he was praying for her family on the West Bank.

That sounds like a whole bunch of patronizing malarkey. “I admire your passion.”
"Biden on Tuesday praised as a “fighter” Israel critic Rep. Rashida Tlaib — a supporter of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement who once tweeted, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” — following his call for a ceasefire in Gaza."https://t.co/hhCefv9RUo

She needs to take a step back and relax. Otherwise she's done

It's a shame she was reelected. Her divisiveness is not what America needs

Why are you promoting her? She's done nothing but fan the flames of this conflict. Remember, she doesn't want Israel to have peace with Palestine. She wants Israel to cease to exist and it is views like hers that lead to never ending war.

She should use her voice to demand Hamas stop terrorizing Israelis.

Isn’t that sweet, Biden “admires” Rashida Tlaib? I hope all of the liberal Jewish Biden voters who Tlaib wants to see wearing orange jumpsuits on terrorist hostage videos are happy knowing that.
