Tlaib threatens Diet, er, Hunger Strike
Timothy Birdnow
Muslim Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib is threatening a hunger strike until ICE is abolished.
If she wants to go on a diet that is her business. I'm not sure how this is a national news story.
From the Federalist Papers article:
So, hungry hungry hippo might cut back on the Halal cart food. Fine. In fact, I praise her efforts and suggest she follow her "strike" to its' inevitable conclusion.
That said, I would like to point out that she is calling for open rebellion against the law of the land and the American government:
Now, a Congresswoman has no business calling for open lawbreaking, and as such she should be subject to severe disciplinary action, up to and including removal from her office.
Here is the oath Tlaib swore when taking office:
Shes seems to be ignoring multiple parts of that oath. But then, in Islamic law one can disregard an oath if something more appealing comes along. Taqqiya means never having to say you're sorry. In fact, it means you can lie with impunity to advance Islam and your own cause. I doubt an oath sworn to infidels means a whole lot to Tlaib.
Happy dieting!
POSTMORTEM, ER, POSTSCRIPT:
Looks like a bunch of Central American scofflaws are taking Tlaib's advice by NOT eating the food the U.S. taxpayers are providing them. Maybe they can get in the habit of not leeching off the ample bosom of Uncle/Auntie Sam (antha), the transgendered teet flowing with milk and honey.

In addition, her office is NOT denying that Tlaib might soon launch a hunger strike of her own to protest ICE. Apparently, that option could soon be on the table for the controversial Michigan Democrat.
From The Daily Caller:
From The Daily Caller:
A spokesman for Tlaib did not respond to The Daily Caller News Foundation when asked if the congresswoman is planning to engage in a hunger strike, but denied that Tlaib called for supporters to launch one of their own.
"She did not call for a hunger strike,†Tlaib’s office told TheDCNF. "‘She mentioned that she knows of folks who have done hunger strikes. After that, she mentioned folks going to the southern border which she said she plans to do.â€

Here is the oath Tlaib swore when taking office:
"I, AB, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion, and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.â€

By all means, strike away. Bon appetit, Rashida. And you're right, Tim. She believes she can ignore her oath, but I dearly hope Auntie Nancy takes her to task for this incitement to take matters into ones' own hands.

Well, Dana, Nan could perhaps make her break her fast with a big helping of crow. I doubt it would be very tasty.
She should. I know Pelosi is a leftist, and also that she is afraid of the dark money funding these radicals, but at some point she's going to have to take a stand or see everything she's worked for fall into ruins.
