Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), the only member of Congress of Palestinian descent, had nothing to say on Tuesday when she was asked to respond to reports that 40 Israeli babies were murdered by Hamas terrorists, some of them beheaded and burned.
FOX News correspondent Hillary Vaughn tried to ask Tlaib about “Hamas terrorists chopping off babies heads, children being burned alive, and women being raped.” But the Michigan Democrat ignored her as she followed her through Congress.
“Congresswoman, why do you have a Palestinian flag outside your office if you do not condone what Hamas terrorists have done to Israel?” Vaughn asked.
“Do Israeli lives matter to you?” Vaughn asked as the elevator door was closing on her.

Meanwhile, Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin reminded his X followers of a time when Tlaib got emotional during a hearing on migrant children.
“In 2019, Rep. Rashida Tlaib got emotional at a hearing on migrant children being separated from their parents at the border, & called it ‘traumatic’ and “inhumane.’ Today, she had no comment, and no reaction when asked about Israeli children being beheaded by Hamas terrorists,” he tweeted on X.

Even the Biden White House has ripped into ‘Squad’ members for some of their comments regarding the Hamas invasion of Israel, essentially putting subsequent losses by terrorists Palestinian civilians over those of the more than 1,000 Israeli soldiers and civilians killed.
When asked for the administration’s reaction to comments made by Democrat Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, and Cori Bush, Jean-Pierre said: “I’ve seen some of those statements this weekend, and we’re going to continue to be very clear. We believe they’re wrong, we believe they’re repugnant, and we believe they’re disgraceful.”
“Our condemnation belongs squarely with terrorists who have brutally murdered, raped, and kidnapped hundreds, hundreds of Israelis. There can be no equivocation about that. There are not two sides here. There are not two sides,” she added.
