Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) called for Congress to censure Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) on Oct. 18, calling the Michigan Democrat a “terrorist sympathizer” after she participated in a protest at Capital Hill.

“Today [Tlaib] followed Hezbollah’s orders for a ‘day of unprecedented anger.’ She organized the occupation of the Cannon office building with radical Global Intifada group and anti-Israel activists JVP,” Ms. Greene posted on X, formerly Twitter. “Tlaib is a terrorist sympathizer and does not belong in congress!”
