Rep. Rashida Tlaib, a member of the far-left “Squad,” posted a video accusing President Biden of supporting a “genocide” of Palestinians and demanded a cease-fire.
The video showed pro-Palestine protests, clips of Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, and footage of injured and killed Palestinian children.
Tlaib faced backlash for using the phrase “from the river to the sea,” associated with Hamas and calling for the genocide of Israelis. (Trending: Is It Time For Joe Biden To Drop Out Of 2024?)

“Mr. President, the American people are not with you on this one,” Tlaib said.
“We will remember in 2024,” Tlaib threatened, writing, “Joe Biden supported the genocide of Palestinian people. The American people won’t forget. Biden, support a ceasefire now, or don’t count on us in 2024.”
“To my president, to our president…I want him to know…as also somebody of Muslim faith, I’m not going to forget this. And I think a lot of people aren’t going to forget this,” Tlaib separately stated.

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict has escalated, with the IDF launching a counter-attack that has killed thousands.
Tlaib’s post received accusations of antisemitism and support for terrorism.
“Wow. Homegrown Hamas propaganda, from someone sitting in our own government. Resign. #IStandWithIsrael,” an X user posted.

She defended the phrase as a call for freedom and peaceful coexistence.
This controversy follows her involvement in a pro-Palestine rally that turned into an “insurrection” at the Capitol.
