Rashida Tlaib claims she's one 'of the biggest fighters against anti-Semitism' — after suggesting that Jewish SoS would 'try to silence' her criticism of Israel

Joe Biden has reportedly chosen Tony Blinken to serve as his Secretary of State.

SCOOP: It's official. Tony Blinken will be Joe Biden's secretary of state, and the announcement is expected to be made on Tuesday, sources tell me, @jeneps and @SalehaMohsin

And for the record, socialist Dem Rep. Rashida Tlaib says she’s totally fine with that … just as long as Blinken, who is Jewish, doesn’t try to silence her when she speaks out against evil Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu:

Just make sure he doesn't try to silence me and suppress my First Amendment right to speak out against Netanyahu's racist and inhumane policies. https://t.co/GrxrZJmLTs

So long as he doesn't suppress my First Amendment right to speak out against Netanyahu's racist and inhumane policies. The Palestinian people deserve equality and justice. https://t.co/SLhT3yYc4i

and I'm genuinely curious to know why you constantly question my qualifications. You've publicly stated multiple misstatements about my background, training, etc. I'm excited to be a part of this event. I think standing up against antisemitism is critical and necessary.

We all are standing against all forms of hate + bigotry. When it comes to standing up for Palestinian rights & human dignity, our intentions are questioned even though we probably are some of the biggest fighters against antisemitism. This is an attempt to police and silence us. https://t.co/CrnSxHeE2s

Oh, don’t worry, Rashida. We’re not questioning your intentions at all. We know exactly what they are.

Wow again. @RashidaTlaib says she and @marclamonthill – both apologists for Louis Farrakhan – are "some of the biggest fighters against antisemitism."

You can't make this stuff up. https://t.co/4ppLkhNI6u

Seriously, who does she think she’s fooling?

You suggested that a Jewish Sec of State might forbid you from criticizing Israel just yesterday. https://t.co/RUIlJBxFZf

We all saw it.

So it’s rather obvious that Biden camp coordinated the progressive wing to signal their approval of the Blinken selection, but Congresswoman Tlaib has some thoughts on Biden picking a Jewish SoS. pic.twitter.com/RDMzmCcqZQ

We see you, Rashida.

Given your tweet about Blinken this has a very “I have a black friend” feel to it.

Oh Rashida. You have chutzpah. I'll give you that.

We can’t deny it.

Not trying to silence you. Simply trying to expose you—although you’re doing a good job of that yourself. Your claim to be a dedicated “fighter against antisemitism” is transparently disingenuous; don’t expect any of us who speak up to stop doing so—you cannot silence *us.* https://t.co/lf1ZCpGZRz
