Within hours of being sworn into the 116th Congress, newly elected Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., already is facing backlash for her comments on the job – after a profanity-laced pledge to pursue President Trump’s impeachment.
Appearing at a reception in Washington, D.C., hosted by liberal group MoveOn, Tlaib wrapped up her remarks by recalling a conversation she had with her son.
“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, we’re gonna impeach the motherf—-r,” Tlaib told the crowd, which roared with approval.
The radicals took control of the House today.
Far left anti-Trumpers and open Socialists are now in charge of the US House of Representatives.
Michigan Democrat Rashida Tlaib, an open Israel-hater, was sworn in on a Koran today.
And after her swearing in she immediately called on President Trump’s impeachment — the “mother f*cker”!!

Why does one get the sense that some of these folks are going to scare off moderates/independents with this kind of rhetoric out of the gate… https://t.co/Ziml3zqzdo

In 5 years on Twitter I have avoided (re-)posting anything with foul language.
Now I break that rule because of @RashidaTlaib.
Forget @AOC.
THIS is the face of the Democrats.
Are you ready for what they will try to do to our President, @realDonaldTrump? https://t.co/zsNUQ7LYZe

In an op-ed published in the Detroit Free Press earlier in the day, Tlaib declared that it’s “time to begin impeachment proceedings,” accusing Trump of being a “direct and serious threat to our country.”
“Whether the president was directly involved in a conspiracy with the Russian government to interfere with the 2016 election remains the subject of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation. But we do not need to wait on the outcome of that criminal investigation before moving forward now with an inquiry in the U.S. House of Representatives on whether the president has committed impeachable ‘high crimes and misdemeanors’ against the state: abuse of power and abuse of the public trust,” Tlaib co-wrote with attorney John Bonifaz.
