'At its 2025 convention, the DSA voted to support Palestinian resistance, […] affirming the right of return, Jerusalem as the capital. […] The resolution also declared that endorsing Zionist positions such as “Israel has a right to defend itself” could be an expellable offense. Delegates also passed a resolution titled “Labor for an Arms Embargo” with over 80 percent support.

'At the same time, the convention showed an organization pulled in two directions — responding to the shifts in consciousness around Palestinian liberation, yet being tethered to a strategy that operates within the limits set by the Democratic Party. For instance, the convention voted down a resolution for a single secular Palestinian state, and turned away from formal alignment with BDS — positions that would have placed DSA too openly against the politics of the Democratic Party. Yet in contradiction, they also passed new rules requiring candidates to support BDS and cut ties with Zionist lobbies — an uneasy compromise that captures both the break and its limits.'

Led by #Tlaib, Lawmakers Demand #Trump Administration Protect Flotilla to #Gaza

The flotilla, which is carrying humanitarian aid to Gaza, has already been attacked numerous times.

By Elizabeth Weill-Greenberg , from #Truthout Sept 30, 2025

“The law is clear: any attack on the Global Sumud Flotilla or its civilians is a clear and blatant violation of international law,” the lawmakers wrote in a letter to Secretary of State Marco Rubio. “The United States has an obligation to protect its citizens from foreign attack.”

The #GlobalSumudFlotilla, which set sail in August, is made up of dozens of civilian boats carrying volunteers from more than 40 countries, including the US. The flotilla has already been attacked at least three times, “causing explosions, fire, and severe damage,” the lawmakers wrote, adding that #US Ambassador and Special Envoy Tom Barrack attributed two of the attacks to #Israel.

Has anybody heard Rashida #Tlaib say anything on #Trump's #MarshallPlan for #Gaza, which envisions building a US-funded "gleaming tourism resort" on a graveyard?

Has anybody heard Tlaib make any news since she deprived #Biden of Arab-American votes in #Michigan for #Election2024? #FAFO

I haven't seen any news about her in months

#Israel intends to fully occupy #Gaza. Israeli leaders approve #Netanyahu's plan for full military takeover of Gaza.

How's that going for Rashida #Tlaib, who worked so hard to pull Arab-American votes away from #Biden, and then from #Harris?

#Arab Americans didn't just fall for #Trump lies. Rashida #Tlaib in #Michigan was actively spreading lies about #Biden.

As a #Democrat, she falsely accused Biden of complicity in a #genocide of #Palestinians.

She angrily worked to rob #Harris of votes and helped deliver Michigan to Trump.

No. #TwoStateSolution is the ONLY viable solution now as it was in the 1947 #UN proposal when #Arabs & #Palestinians rejected it in favor of war, and continued to reject it for decades while chanting #FromTheRiverToTheSea.

Sure, but #Bernie was radioactive in 2016. Never forget that.

Also, #Biden was cast aside because of his age, and Bernie is no fountain of youth.

There're many complex reasons we lost (#Hamas, #Israel's intransigence, #Tlaib's treachery in siphoning off #Muslim votes, other foreign interference, #Trump's wink-wink nod-nod super secret thing #Musk was cooking…, and on an on), but the least plausible reason is that the #Democrats did not bless the right candidate.

#Tlaib, #ACLU, and advocates warn #HR9495 could empower Trump to silence nonprofits and stifle dissent

#Progressives and #CivilRights groups sound the alarm over legislation that could allow President-elect #Trump to strip nonprofits of their tax-exempt status without evidence, threatening #FreeSpeech and #democracy.

By Alexis Sterling -
November 15, 2024

"The bill does not require officials to provide an explanation for designating a group, nor does it obligate the #TreasuryDepartment to present evidence of wrongdoing. This lack of accountability has raised alarm bells among advocates who see it as a tool for #authoritarian #suppression.

"#RashidaTlaib Tlaib has been one of the most vocal opponents of the bill, particularly given its timing amidst heightened protests over U.S. support for Israel’s military actions in #Gaza. 'This is authoritarianism,' Tlaib said. 'This bill is designed to silence dissent and give Trump #UncheckedPower to target groups he doesn’t agree with'.'

"Other progressive lawmakers echoed her concerns. Rep. #SummerLee (D-Pa.) called the legislation 'a giant threat to free speech,' warning that it would allow the government to “label any nonprofit as ‘terrorist-supporting’ without evidence or due process—opening the door to crush opposition and silence dissent.' Rep. #IlhanOmar (D-Minn.) added that 'no one person should have the authority to silence organizations that dare to challenge government policies or speak uncomfortable truths.'

"Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.), who is leaving Congress after losing his primary to a candidate backed by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (#AIPAC), described the bill as 'extremely dangerous.' He cautioned that it 'will sink us further into #authoritarianism. It is an extremely dangerous bill that would give the government unlimited power to stop the work of #humanitarian groups and target political enemies. All without transparency or evidence.'

While the bill is widely seen as a response to criticism of U.S. support for Israel, its potential impact goes far beyond organizations advocating for Palestinian rights. Costello warned that 'the danger is much broader than just groups that work on foreign policy. It could target major liberal funders who support #PalestinianSolidarity and peace groups who engage in #protest. But it could also theoretically be used to target #ProChoice groups, and I could see it being used against #environmental groups.'

"#JewishVoiceForPeace Action’s political director Beth Miller described the legislation as 'terrifying,' emphasizing its potential to suppress civil society across the board. “This bill should be a five-alarm fire for anyone who seeks to protect free speech, civil society, and democracy. This is part of a broader #MAGA assault on the right to protest that begins with attacks on #Palestinian rights groups and is aimed at outlawing the #SocialJustice movements that fight for progressive change. This is part of a well-worn authoritarian playbook to dismantle fundamental freedoms.”

In Dearborn, #RashidaTlaib Did Nearly Twice as Well as #KamalaHarris

Harris refused to distance herself from the #Biden administration's support of #Israel's war on #Gaza. #Tlaib railed against it.

by Matthew Sledge
November 6 2024

"Voters in the biggest U.S. city with an #Arab-majority population shifted decisively toward Donald #Trump on Tuesday, in a stinging rebuke of the Biden administration’s policies in the #MiddleEast.

"Trump claimed 43 percent of the vote in Dearborn, Michigan, to Kamala Harris’s 36 percent. #JillStein claimed 15 percent of the vote in the city, where the #GreenParty had notched less than 1 percent in 2020.

"Trump’s margin of victory in Dearborn represents a massive reversal from the 2020 election, when Joe Biden’s won 69 percent to Trump’s 30.

"The huge shift toward Trump will not be decisive in a race where he cruised to a Electoral College victory without the help of Michigan, the state with the highest percentage of Arab Americans. The state had yet to be called Wednesday morning. Still, it was a telling sign of how completely the administration has lost Arab Americans over the war.

"Down-ballot results suggest that the move was motivated in large part by anger toward the Biden administration rather than dissatisfaction with Democratic policies overall."

That's a lie.

Look up the official readout of #KamalaHarris meeting with #Netanyahu. There isn't one on #Trump's meeting with Netanyahu, but if you know the difference between #Harris and Trump, it is not difficult to imagine what the latter discussion might have been.

I know this story is several weeks old, but I wanted to talk about it because I'm not sure the mainstream media, which almost universally decried a racist cartoon about Rashida Tlaib being a potential target of an exploding pager in the wake of Israel's (widely-celebrated) terrorist attacks using exploding pagers in Lebanon, entirely understood or was prepared to talk about the ideas the "artist" involved was promoting.

"Rashida Tlaib, the Palestinian American congresswoman, has accused a political cartoonist of racism after he depicted her next to a pager exploding days after such devices blew up across Lebanon in what the Arab country has said was an attack by Israel.

A statement from the Democratic US House representative also expressed concern that the cartoon by Henry Payne would “incite more hate and violence against Arab and Muslim communities”.

“And it makes everyone less safe,” Tlaib said of the cartoon – published by the Republican-friendly National Review – which also showed her thinking how “odd” it was for the nearby pager to explode. Pagers had been a preferred method of Hezbollah members in conflict with Israel, before such devices exploded across Lebanon recently. “It’s disgraceful that the media continues to normalize this racism against our communities,” she said."

Now on the surface here, the media (and Tlaib herself) are obviously correct in saying that the cartoon the National Review published is racist, Islamophobic, and anti-Arab. Tlaib is also absolutely correct to point out that American is rapidly returning to an early-War on Terror state of open bigotry against Arab Americans, fueled by racist propaganda that is being normalized as a result of political actors, as well as U.S. support for Israel's genocide in Gaza and military actions against Lebanon; this is a larger, purposely-engineered problem in our society and it does make us all less safe - particularly Arab Americans.

With that having been noted here, there is also a fascist/McCarthyist subtext to this cartoon that as far as I can tell the media is largely ignoring, but the reactionaries pushing white nationalism and US imperial ambitions definitely picked up on. After all, this cartoon is referencing a method of assassination Israel deployed against people it identified as "enemies" and the clear implication of the cartoon is that Rashida Tlaib qualifies under that description and assassinating her might be a good or at least reasonable idea. This is, to put it succinctly, an extension of the fascist propaganda the American Right, all the way up to former President Donald Trump, is pushing regarding the need to take action against "enemies within." Which as we discussed yesterday, is not only straight out of the propaganda playbook for every fascist regime in human history, but ultimately a pretext for purging folks who oppose fascism and the hyper-reactionary nationalist order the larger American right is seeking to impose on our country. The idea that an elected American Congresswoman from Detroit is an enemy of the state, and thus a legitimate target for assassination is not-so subtly woven into the cartoon, and echoes the longstanding hate campaign establishment figures on the right in American politics have been directing against Tlaib for literally years now.

So yes, the cartoon is racist, yes it's Islamophobic, yes it's anti-Arab, yes it's a thinly veiled incitement for violence; but it's also important to understand that what the National Review has published here is straight up fascist propaganda and it has a clear goal of manufacturing consent for a new type of McCarthyism and the purge of "enemies" defined as anyone, including US politicians, who oppose fascism and American imperial violence. It would have been nice if even one publication I read mentioned that, but American fascism is so ingrained into our society at this point that I question whether folks in our media can even recognize it in the moment anymore.

>> Democrats imo should focus … on democrats …. Not begging and pleading with Republicans to like them and diluting the Democrats core appeal.

Have you heard of the #Democrat representative Rashida #Tlaib from #Michigan?

She is the reason why Democrats have to broaden their appeal beyond their "core appeal". Tlaib puts the interests of #Palestinian Arabs ahead of the interests of people of her own country and has no business representing Americans in Congress.

@GreenFire

None of the prestige journalists who ran with this seem concerned that it’s entirely false.

"Despite broad popular support for legislation to curtail police violence, Congress got nothing done. Democrats, despite controlling both the House and Senate in 2021 and 2022, slow-walked the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, insisting on bipartisan support that never materialized."

"Both #BLM activists voted into Congress have been pushed out."

"Bowman and Bush have been routed out of Congress, thanks to a historic deluge of big-money spending against them. They battled challengers in the most and third-most-expensive congressional primaries in American history, respectively, and each was outspent roughly 4–1."
