jessica tarlov, jesse watters and her biggest fear is getting stuck in a glue trap, dana perino, the five greg: radical rashida tlaib refusing to back down on her anti-semitism after getting censured by congress. the house voting to punish the congresswoman after she blamed israel and america for the october 7th terror attacks and pumping out slogans you can find in the hamas charter like when she posted a video that included the phrase from the river to the sea. in tend they voted to discipline their fellow colleague tlaib balling her eyes out for being held accountable and painting herself as a free speech warrior. i will not be silenced or distort my words. the idea of the israel is anti-semitic is a dangerous precedent. i can t believe i have to say this but palestinian people are not disposable. the cries of the palestinian, palestinian and israeli children sound no different to me. why what i don t understand is why the cries of palestinians sound different to
