Rashida Tlaib Incorrectly Says Congress Doesn’t Need President’s Support To Open Government
Published 42 mins ago on Jan 15, 2019
By Patrick Howley
Democrat Michigan congresswoman Rashida Tlaib incorrectly said on the House floor that Congress does not need President Donald Trump’s support to re-open the federal government.
“We don’t need the president’s support, so please” take up a continuing resolution to re-open the government without funding the border wall, Tlaib begged Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.
Tlaib’s statement is false, because even if the Republican-controlled Senate did pass a Democrat House bill, President Trump would not sign it. As clearly evidenced by the events so far in this government shutdown, Congress has no chance of overturning a Trump veto.
A fast-track continuing resolution would not get 54 Republican votes in the Senate. These fast-track ploys can’t even make it through the House. Thus, Tlaib is wrong. President Trump must agree to re-open the government.

The House failed to pass a short-term spending bill Tuesday to re-open the government through February 1, so Mitch McConnell does not even have to worry about the Democrats’ failed H.J. Res 27.
Tlaib spoke of the supposed damage to America being done by the suspension of workers in the EPA, and said that the president is using people as “pawns.”
Democrats failed to get the two-thirds vote needed to re-open the federal government through February 1 without funding President Donald Trump’s border wall on one of their attempts Tuesday.
House members favored the measure — which was under suspension — by a 237-187 vote, but that was not enough votes to pass.
The House is trying to get their mission accomplished through a different continuing resolution Tuesday.
Democrats’ failure to even get the H.J. Res 27 bill to the Senate further underscores how President Trump has all the leverage in these negotiations.

President Donald Trump could save enough money to pay for his entire southern border wall with change to spare if he chooses not to sign a bill guaranteeing back pay for furloughed government workers. It would only take three pay periods over six weeks for the government to save more than $6 billion, more than the $5.7 billion Trump is asking for to build the Wall.
The mainstream media is reporting that Trump is prepared to sign the back-pay bill that went to his desk days ago, but Trump has not signed anything, and to do so would knock out some of his leverage over Schumer and Pelosi — which does not seem like it would be in line with “Art of the Deal” policy.
The shutdown — in which 800,000 workers are not working– is saving taxpayers more than two billion dollars for every two-week pay period, but the savings will only count if Trump chooses not to give them back pay.

She's a fraud! MUSLIM CONGRESSWOMAN 'LIED BIG-TIME' ABOUT RESIDENCY

Muslim congresswoman 'lied big-time' about residency
Rashida Tlaib registered at false address to run for office
Published: 1 day ago
Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich.
Freshman Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan registered to vote with a false address and represented a state House district in which she did not reside, according to credit score and property records obtained by Big League Politics.
Tlaib’s father told the Detroit News in 2010 that his daughter “lied” about her residency to run for office, the website noted. She signed an election affidavit in 2008 with the Wayne County Clerk claiming she was a citizen of Detroit.
Big League politics concluded Tlaib represented the 12th district in the Michigan House of Representatives even though she was not a resident of the district.
She moved to the address only at the beginning of her 2018 campaign for Congress.
Michigan state Sen. Jon Bumstead, a Republican, told Big League Politics through an intermediary that Michigan state representatives are required by law to live in the district they represent.
Candidates for state office must submit an Affidavit of Identity in which they provide truthful residence information.
Big League Politics noted a Change.org petition titled “IMPEACH RASHIDA TLAIB” had more than 300,000 signatures.
The petition states Tlaib “lied about living in Detroit using her fathers house address” and demands “a full investigation and recount of every vote that she supposedly received.”
Her father, Harbi Elabed, said “she lied big-time to get elected.”
“I never teach her that way. I teach her the right way,” he said. “It’s my house. She didn’t live there. She lived in Dearborn in her house with her husband and boy.”
Shortly after she was sworn in to Congress in January, she declared “we’re gonna go in there and we’re going to impeach the motherf****r,” referring to President Trump.
Last week, an investigation by the Daily Caller News Foundation found Tlaib is a member of the Facebook group “Palestinian American Congress,” whose members often demonize Jews.
The group’s founder, Palestinian activist Maher Abdel-qader, was a key fundraiser for Tlaib and organized campaign events for her around the country, the Daily Caller said.
One year ago, Abdel-qader posted online an anti-Semitic video that claimed Jews aren’t actually Jewish, invented their historical claim to Israel and secretly control the media.
The video described Jews as “satanic” and questioned whether 6 million Jews actually died in the Holocaust.
In addition, the Clarion Project found that among the guests at her post-swearing-in dinner was Abbas Hamideh, an anti-Semite and supporter of Hezbollah.
