Levin: Remember Tlaib’s village? ‘She and her family are considered … in the top one percent of Palestinian life’
Carmel Kookogey · August 23, 2019   

Thursday on the radio, LevinTV host Mark Levin debunked the characterization by Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., of her hometown as an impoverished village.

Levin pointed out that not a single news source fact-checked Tlaib’s claims prior to a recent report by an Israeli newspaper that simply examined the Facebook profiles of Tlaib’s family members living in Beit-Ur al-Fauqa. The family had shared photos of their variety of expensive cars, working out in expensive gyms, and on European vacations. The World Bank called Tlaib’s village one of the richest in the region in 2014, too, the report noted.

“You know those people sleeping in the streets in San Francisco, Pelosi’s nirvana? And the streets of L.A., Adam Schiff-less’ nirvana? Crapping on themselves, crapping on each other, using needles? Sounds to me like that’s a far worse place, run by liberal Democrats year after year, decade after decade,” Levin said.

Rashida Tlaib was born in Detroit. That West Bank village is where her mother was born, but unless she moved back later in life the mother did not share in her family's comparative prosperity. Rashida Tlaib's father worked for auto maker Ford.

Not that I think Tlaib's Grandmother was anything more than a rhetorical pawn in the recent kerfuffle.

If the family is rich enough to take vacations in Europe why couldn't they send grandma over here to visit? And avoid the grandstand play? Because all it was or meant to be was a grandstand play.

So?  Rashida Tlaib is still ugly, fat, and a perfect example of a loudmouth.  I thought muslim women were a bit more .... ahem .... delicate in their choice of m*********ing cusswords?
