Democratic Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib defeated her Republican opponent in Michigan's 12th congressional district election on Tuesday, securing a fourth term as the only Palestinian-American woman in the US Congress.
The Associated Press called the race with just 18 percent of the votes counted.
Tlaib secured 77 percent of the vote, defeating the Republican Party's James Hooper who received just 19 percent of the vote.
Her victory comes amid the backdrop of Israel's war on Gaza, which has killed more than 43,000 Palestinians so far and has been diplomatically and militarily supported by the Biden-Harris administration for more than a year.
Tlaib has been a vocal critic of the war, calling for the US to withhold weapons from Israel. Her opposition to the war on Gaza and support for pro-Palestinian protests on university campuses have drawn harsh criticism from both Republicans and Democrats.
Comparing Kamala Harris to Jesus while she is facilitating a genocide... Really shows how much of a cult the Democratic party has become.
That's a misreading of analogy.
Let me put it this way. I am a leftist. I believe strongly in fielding more left-leaning candidates. However, I accept I am the political minority. A leftist administration could be the exact thing needed to fix everything that is wrong with the United States, but they would never win an election because the support just isn't there.
Americans don't want leftists, fascism is an easier sell.
Bernie was winning in 2016.... Until the Democratic party turned against him in the primaries.
The American people want a progressive. The DNC would rather have Trump.
He was winning in 2020 too and everybody panicked and GAVE their fucking delegates to Biden lmao. All that for the most milquetoast social democrat, imagine if it was a real socialist.
