Palestinian-American Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) had a meltdown when confronted by a Fox News reporter on Wednesday about an Islamic Al-Quds Day rally in her Dearborn, Michigan district last Friday where the crowd chanted “Death to America!” As of Wednesday, Tlaib had not issued a statement on the rally.
Excerpt from Wikipedia on Al-Quds day, “Quds Day (lit. ’Jerusalem Day’), officially known as International Quds Day (Persian: روز جهانی قدس, romanized: Ruz Jahâni Quds), is an annual pro-Palestinian event held on the last Friday of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan to express support for Palestinians and oppose Israel and Zionism.[4] It takes its name from the Arabic name for Jerusalem: al-Quds. The event was first held in 1979 in Iran, shortly after the Iranian Revolution.”
Fox News Congressional Correspondent Hillary Vaughn caught up with Tlaib as she was walking with a staff member to an elevator in a House office building. Vaughn repeatedly, but respectfully, asked Tlaib about the “Death to America” chants at the rally in her district. Tlaib kept repeating that she doesn’t talk to Fox News, and “I don’t talk to people who use racist tropes.” Tlaib also accused the network of being “Islamophobic.”
