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.”

Guys. Please, don’t waste your time. A member of Congress cannot be impeached and removed. The Constitution “technically” allows for this, however, the Constitution grants the House and Senate the authority to discipline members. The traditional actions are a written reprimand, a censure (where the member disciplined is required to stand in the Well of the House (or in front of the President of the Senate) to hear the censure and, of course, being expelled from the chamber.
The only time that a Member of Congress was impeached was after Tennessee became a state, however, the Senate rendered the impeachment moot by denying the Senator the seat totally and the Senator resigned. Since then, it’s not been a needed process given my explanation above.
technically she got her job illegally. she lied about her address and a few other things to get nominated in the first place. she is a fraud and needs to be expelled.
She could not put her hand on the American bible to up hold America .what in hell is she doing here. Kick her sleezy ass out.

Yes she needs too go. SHE AND OTHERS LIKE HER only want to INDOCTRINATE our children and
Change our way of life.
Impeach‼️
This woman is a danger to this country. She lied to run for this office using her Father’s address to be unopposed, a sure win for her. This should not be accepted and therefore she should be removed from the Congress immediately.
She ran unopposed because Dems blocked the other candidate. She could have gotten one vote, and still win. She’s full of hot air. She does not deserve to be our rep; and we should not be subjected to represent us
BUILD THE WALLL AND IMPEACHED THIS MUSLIM. WHY WAS SHE ALOUD TO BECI=OE A CONGRESSMAN IN FIRST PLACE ITS A FOREIGNER, NOONE FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY CAN BE PRESIDENT SO HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN???
This is a requirement in becoming a citizen, “to assimulate, To become American” She hates our country , that is refusing to be a citizen and she needs to return to Palistine and rejoin their “Squatters,” as we love our country and abide by our Constitution, not to change into a land foreign to us. Please leave and take those that wish to live by different laws back to where they came from.
