Efforts to censure Rashida Tlaib fail

The measure – introduced by far-right Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene – targeted Tlaib for her advocacy for Palestinian rights.
The so-called censure resolution was halted in a 222 to 186 vote, with 23 Republicans joining the Democrats in opposing it.
It accused Tlaib of “anti-Semitic activity, sympathizing with terrorist organisations and leading an insurrection at the United States Capitol Complex”, referring to a sit-in by Jewish activists inside Congress to demand a ceasefire in Gaza.

Well, she’s an elected official, and an American citizen, so……free speech and all……

Which apparently includes the right to murder Israeli citizens in the name of oppression.

This is a recurring issue and the electorate needs to show their strength by cleaning house.

She’s an idiot but entitled to her opinion

People want to protection freedom of speech until its not the speech they want to hear. Then they want a tyrannical government agency to attack their enemy and shut them down. You see this from both the crazy proRegressives on the far left and the #fakechristianmoralists of the far right. Both love a good authoritarian government when they think its on their team.

bullshite. House members have been censured or reprimanded numerous times for merely speaking.
Recent Examples:
Bob Dornan - 1995-- Alleged that Bill Clinton gave aid and comfort to the enemy in Vietnam. Was reprimanded.
Joe Wilson - 2009 -- Making an outburst towards President Barack Obama during a speech to a joint session of Congress. "You lie!" Wilson Was reprimanded.
Paul Gosar - 2021 - Posted a controversial meme on his twitter account making fun of AOC and Biden. Was censured.
Adam Schiff - 2023 - Got censured for his Russia collusion lies he spewed constantly.
So they can censure people for the above, but cannot censure Talib for supporting mass murder?

She is entitled to her opinion but she is a representative of the United States of America. Hamas is a terrorist organization that killed U. S. citizens during the October 7 surprise attack. Tlaib sided with the terrorists.
She should be held accountable for giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
BTW - if the Edwards who voted NO is Chuck Edwards, then he's my rep. I look forward to not voting for him in the future.

how do Republicans universally support giving Israel as much money as possible yet can't support condemning someone who openly hates Israel?
