Report: Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s Campaign Paid $170K to ‘Anti-Israel Activist’ Who ‘Called for Defunding Police’Katherine Hamilton 8 Feb 2022
Far-left Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s (D-MI) campaign paid $170,000 to an “anti-Israel activist” who has “called for defunding the police multiple times,” Fox News reported on Tuesday.
The outlet found:
Tlaib’s campaign has paid $147,000 to Unbought Power LLC, a political consulting and advocacy firm run by Rasha Mubarak, since March 2020. Tlaib’s leadership PAC, Rooted in Community Leadership, which lists Mubarak as a “treasurer,” has paid Unbought Power another $23,000 since October 2020, according to Federal Elections Commission (FEC) filings reviewed by Fox News Digital.
According to the report, Mubarak is a Palestinian Muslim American “community activist” who has made anti-Israel statements online, including calling Israel an “apartheid state.”
“These aren’t clashes— it’s an ongoing occupation. These aren’t evictions— they are forced expulsions,” Mubarak tweeted last summer. “This isn’t a conflict— it’s settler colonialism, it’s ethnic cleansing, it’s oppression, it’s apartheid.”
“Say it loud. Say it clear. Palestine will be FREE. #SaveSheikhJarrah,” she wrote.
