Freshman U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib wasted no time in calling for the impeachment of President Donald Trump just hours after being sworn in.

Speaking to a crowd of supporters Thursday night, the Michigan Democrat and one of the first Muslim women elected to Congress said of Trump: “People love you and you win. And when your son looks at you and says, ‘Momma, look you won. Bullies don’t win.’ And I said, ‘Baby, they don’t, because we’re gonna go in there and we’re gonna impeach the mother***er.’”
Tlaib’s proclamation came hours after the Detroit Free Press published her op-ed calling for Trump’s impeachment.
“President Donald Trump is a direct and serious threat to our country. On an almost daily basis, he attacks our Constitution, our democracy, the rule of law and the people who are in this country,” Tlaib wrote. “Each passing day brings more pain for the people most directly hurt by this president, and these are days we simply cannot get back. The time for impeachment proceedings is now.”
To remove a sitting president, the constitution requires conviction of “treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.” The impeachment process would further require the consent of both the House and two-thirds of the Senate, which is still a Republican majority.
Rep. Brad Sherman, D-Calif., on Thursday re-introduced articles of impeachment that he had filed last year with Democratic co-sponsor Rep. Al Green of Texas.
Rep. Adam Smith, D-Wash., had a more measured tone on impeachment, telling a CNN reporter on Thursday, “It’s not too soon to be talking about it. We’ll have to decide whether or not it’s the correct course of action, but certainly, we should be discussing it and asking those questions and figuring out what the best course of action is.”
Nancy Pelosi, who was re-elected to Speaker of the House Thursday, said she isn’t ruling out impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump, depending on findings by the special counsel investigating Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election.
“We shouldn’t be impeaching for a political reason, and we shouldn’t avoid impeachment for a political reason,” she said.

Wow! The Palestinian and the joozs are working together. Proves how deluded the American populace has become. No wonder there’s no success for the Palestinians…its called COLLUSION.
What an idiot!
I’d be willing to bet she has been mis quoted on some of this stuff.
ed note–hard to misquote this–

she is an americanized brain dead useful idiot. if she was capable of an original thought she would never have been allowed to get elected.
Well now ‘Murica will think all Palestinians are potty mouths.. not just terrorists. Very poor judgement on her point. She could have represented her people much better.
Isn’t it obvious? Anyone that supports Military Aid to Israel cannot be a real Palestinian. Zionist in Muslim facade.

In a short while,probably while addressing a jewish organization like AIPAC, she suddenly discover her”jewish” ancestry.
will guess
tlaib is genetically engineered
well
some sort of engineering happened
You cannot be a true Muslim or even a real PALESTINIAN if you do not support right of return for Palestinian people to their personal private homes and properties in Palestine. You do not fully support boycott and divestment of every thing “israel”. You do not support ending all US funding and aid to “israel”. You do not support equal rights for all Palestinian people living in their native historic homeland of Palestine which is now referred to as “israel homeland for Jews only”.
If you do not fully support these things openly in public and any and all other ways….
You are NOT a Palestinian and you are NOT a Muslim.
When there are non Muslim and non Palestinian people in this world who DO fully support these things and say so loud and clear then a Palestinian/Muslim woman who has put herself in a position of being a example for the rest of us to follow and represents American Muslim/Arab people DOES NOT ALSO DECLARE HER FULL SUPPORT for these issues then that indeed would be very very shameful and the ultimate act of betrayal to us all.
I have great concerns about Ms Talib after reading the information at the link Irate shared above.
Well I guess if she turns out to be another shill it won’t be to much of a surprise. After all, if she were any sort of real threat to israel she never would have even gotten in.
Also…. she is in a position of example and represents Muslim/Arab people. In every day life we use slang language when speaking about issues that bother us. That is acceptable because we are not leaders or public speakers.
She should refrain from this gutter slang talk when referring to the President or any one else when speaking in public because it is embarrassing to the rest of us. Instead of rising above she dwells in the gutter using language like that.
One single tiny Muslim/Palestinian human being has made it to American office.
I hope to God she does not blow it for herself and the rest of us.
