Yesterday, totally-not-anti-Semitic Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib did a Twitter fist-bump with anti-Semitic Women’s March leader Tamika Mallory:
Leave @RashidaTlaib alone. She fights hard every day. She’s full of passion and a commitment to the most marginalized people – the kind of leader we need. https://t.co/12WBWmw3b4

She’s so silenced, you guys. Just look at how silenced she is:

Apparently speaking truth to power means dismissing your critics as “racist idiots” and tripling down on your historical revisionism — and doing it all while Seth Meyers is giving you a tongue bath:
On @LateNightSeth, @RashidaTlaib: “I got a text message from a friend who’s like, ‘Hey, next time, you know, really clarify. Maybe talk like a fourth grader because maybe the racist idiots would understand you better.’” #LNSM pic.twitter.com/XxAlzluR52

Seth Meyers offers a chummy interview with Rep Rashida Tlaib and swipes at media for not offering "the Palestinian perspective" pic.twitter.com/AsVnUdxcx2

That wasn’t so much an interview as it was an opportunity for Rashida Tlaib to lie to an even wider audience.

Or maybe just don't completely rewrite history.

Who’s going to stop her?
It's disgusting how everybody keeps trying to silence Rashida Tlaib. https://t.co/qRim50cwCj

What’s disgusting is the Left’s deification of Rashida Tlaib and their pathological need to excuse her despicable words and actions. Seth Meyers’ pathetic embrace of Tlaib embodies that.
This interview of Seth Meyers w Rashida Tlaib is a true embarrassment. No Meyers, she didn’t say Palestine was a safe haven, she said Palestinians created a safe haven. That is a grotesque and massively atrocious falsehood. And you fawn all over her https://t.co/CNp0tcKp40

Seth Meyers’ fawning is bad enough on its face. But it’s even more egregious when you consider how he treated Meghan McCain just last week when McCain took a stand against the anti-Semitism of Tlaib’s BFF Ilhan Omar:
Quite a change in tone from this interview with Meghan McCain just last week pic.twitter.com/X8hVyign0D

Seth Meyers is a hack. A shameless, disingenuous one at that. Which makes him a perfect mouthpiece for the radical, anti-Semitic Left.
They've found their white knight. pic.twitter.com/CYIjMFVXDJ

First Omar, now Tlaib. Hey, if you say something anti-semitic, get on the friendly confines of Late Night with Seth Meyer

Last week: Seth Meyers defends anti-Semite Ilhan Omar
This week: Seth Meyers defends anti-Semite Rashida Tlaib
Who is next week, @SethMeyers? Jeremy Corbyn? https://t.co/n57lO0wQb3
