Sounds like Rep. Rashida Tlaib has some ‘splainin’ to do.
“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.”

From The Epoch Times:
The father of U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) said that his daughter lied about where she lived in order to get elected.
Tlaib’s father Harbi Elabed made the accusation during a March 2010 interview with The Detroit News.
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, according to the Daily Wire, a conservative news outlet that uncovered the article.
Umm … wow.
Your dad accused you in 2010 of lying in an election affidavit where you said you lived in Detroit
He said: "She lied big-time to get elected. I never teach her that way. I teach her the right way. She didn't live there. She lived in Dearborn"

Right? Usually, Democrats are so honest too.
US politics at its finest – she’s an absolute embarrassment. She should start her own company: Dewey, Cheatham & Howe…?

What else is she lying about? Why won't she produce her bills, if she says they exonerate her? What is her real agenda?

We can see through her!

We went to look at Rashida’s timeline to see if she had addressed this accusation and found this instead:
Misled?
Nah. Where I am from, we call that lying. https://t.co/JP3P7Z4psH

Which considering it looks like she lied to win an election was perhaps the best response we could have hoped for.
If anyone knows about lying it’s clearly Rashida.
