A Change.org petition calling for the impeachment of Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI-13) already has close to 160,000 signatures.
“This woman is an anti-Semite, a war mongering hate filled Palestinian who has vowed to try and destroy our constitutional rights, hates America, hates American citizens,” the petition states. “She’s a danger to our sovereignty, a detriment to society, and to this country, and is unfit to serve in any capacity within our government.”
The petition also takes issue with Tlaib’s election, claiming that she “lied about living in Detroit” by “using her father’s house address.”
Tlaib made headlines earlier this week when she vowed to “impeach the motherf—” during a party in celebration of her being sworn in to Congress.
“I stand by impeaching the president of the United States. I ran on that,” she said in an interview discussing her comments. She called her promise to impeach President Donald Trump something she “very much” holds “dearly.”
“They love that I’m real, and that I am very much focused on getting the government back up and running, but also making sure we’ve held the president of the United States accountable,” she said.
Tlaib later apologized that her comments caused a “distraction,” but refused to apologize for the explicit remarks.
“I understand that I am a member of Congress, and I don’t want anything that I do or say to distract us. And that’s the only thing that I apologize for—that it was a distraction,” Tlaib told reporters, calling the backlash she’s faced a “teachable moment.”
As Battleground State News reported this week, Tlaib was pictured with anti-Semite and known defender of Sharia law Linda Sarsour after she was sworn in. Sarsour posted several pictures with Tlaib, calling her a “congresswoman of the people.”

This woman or any person who is a Muslim, has no business in our Government. Their Quran has no business being used in our Government. America has had enough of the Muslim, American people do no believe in Sharia Law, We should not have to change our way for the Muslims. Pelosi, Needs to get this woman out of our government along with the other woman who is a Muslim. America has not forgotten 9-11 and never will. Another big mistake America made was electing Obama who is a Muslim. No Muslims in our Government.
Anyone who cannot put their hand on the Bible to support and up hold our laws , should NOT be in public office of any kind. American needs to wake up…
IMPEACHER HER TAIIB RASHIDA TLAIB
Everyone missed the real point..not only her but 3 other Muslim women would not Swear an Oath on the Bible or anything else to uphold Our constitutional rights..They don’t Represent anyone in America!
