House Strikes Rep’s ‘Terrorist’ Jab At Rashida Tlaib — But Her Own Record Tells The Story

The House struck comments made by Ohio Republican Rep. Max Miller after he blasted Michigan Democrat Rep. Rashida Tlaib on the House floor Wednesday as someone who “advocates for terrorists on a daily basis” — but a look at Tlaib’s decade-long record suggests Miller’s got the receipts to back up every word.

Miller unloaded on Tlaib during debate, telling her directly: “Hezbollah is a terrorist organization, gentle lady from Michigan, and its members are butchers that you like to hang out with to a certain extent.”

When Tlaib erupted in anger, Miller didn’t flinch.

“Oh, I’m sorry. Are we getting a little emotional?” he shot back.

After the chairman asked him to suspend, Tlaib erupted again — and Miller doubled down: “I certainly believe you advocate for them, yes. You advocate for terrorists on a daily basis. You advocate for a terrorist regime every single day.”

A chaotic exchange grinds House floor debate on Lebanon war powers to a halt.

Tlaib immediately demanded Miller’s words be stricken from the record, calling them “a direct attack on my character.” The House struck the comments after Miller refused to voluntarily retract his remarks, Axios reported.

“Such remarks impugn the patriotism and loyalty of a member of the House, which is not in order,” said California Republican Rep. Jay Obernolte, who was presiding over the House. “Without objection, the offending words are stricken from the record.”

The House itself has already weighed in on Tlaib’s record. In November 2023, the chamber voted 234–188 to censure her, with 22 Democrats crossing the aisle to support the rebuke. The resolution cited a years-long pattern of anti-Israel rhetoric, her promotion of the “from the river to the sea” slogan — a Hamas rallying cry calling for Israel’s destruction — and her inflammatory statement the day after the October 7 massacre, in which she called Israel an apartheid state and suggested the U.S. cut off support for its closest Middle East ally.

That was far from an isolated incident. She once said on the ‘‘Skullduggery” podcast, “There’s always kind of a calming feeling, I always tell folks, when I think of the Holocaust and the tragedy of the Holocaust.”

In 2021, Tlaib spoke at a rally outside the State Department where activists chanted for the elimination of Israel — even as Palestinian terrorists were firing hundreds of rockets into Israeli cities. In 2020, she boosted defenders of Ahmad Erekat, a man Israeli police say drove his car into a border checkpoint in a deliberate terrorist attack. In February 2024, she was the sole member of the entire House — Democrat or Republican — to refuse to vote yes on a resolution condemning Hamas’s use of rape and sexual violence as a weapon of war, voting “present” instead.

She was also a member of a private Facebook group whose members glorified Hamas in the immediate aftermath of October 7, posting photos of Hamas fighters posing with elderly hostages and celebrating the slaughter of Israeli soldiers as “achievements.” The group’s founder — one of Tlaib’s key fundraisers — has posted videos questioning the Holocaust and calling Jews “satanic.”

Miller called Tlaib a terrorist advocate on the House floor. The House censured her. Her own colleagues slammed her. Her own Facebook group cheered Hamas.

Strike his words? They’re the most documented words spoken in Congress all week.
