"Both the U.S. and genocidal Israel doesn't care about the laws. This is who they are, Tlaib posted on X on Saturday. Her post included footage of a school that was hit in the military strikes and claimed approximately 40 people were killed; The New York Times on Sunday reported dozens were killed in the attack, according to Iranian health officials and state media."
"Journalist and former New Yorker writer James Surowiecki told Tlaib You're a member of Congress. Don't call the U.S. they.' Fox News host Mark Levin sarcastically dubbed Tlaib a brainiac and said the Iranian people were overwhelmingly in favor of the strikes against the Ayatollah."
"When a member of Congress is using they instead of we to refer to the United States, that is pretty telling. If you do not see yourself as part of America, how can you serve America?"
Rep. Rashida Tlaib posted on X condemning military strikes on Iran, stating 'Both the U.S. and genocidal Israel doesn't care about the laws.' Her post included footage of a school hit in the strikes and claimed approximately 40 people were killed. Her use of 'they' to refer to the United States drew widespread criticism from journalists, Fox News hosts, and conservative commentators. Critics argued that as an elected member of Congress, she should identify with the U.S. using 'we' rather than distancing herself with 'they.' Multiple commentators questioned her patriotism and suggested she should leave the country if she opposed it.
