Tlaib Faces Michigan Bar Complaint for Alleged Antisemitism, Spreading ‘Terrorist Propaganda’, Lies

by Madeleine Hubbard

 

Rep. Rashida Tlaib faces a formal complaint asking the State Bar of Michigan to open an investigation into the Michigan Democrat, an active member of the state bar, over her alleged “repeated false statements, anti-Semitic comments, and spread of foreign terrorist propaganda” following Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on Israel, which resulted in about 1,200 deaths.

“Attorney Tlaib’s public statements have shown a complete disregard for the truth and serve only to enflame anti-Semitic hatred rather than promote the ends of justice,” the Coolidge Reagan Foundation, a free speech nonprofit, wrote in the complaint Monday to the Michigan bar.

“This request arises from Attorney Tlaib’s false, discriminatory, and anti-Semitic comments regarding the horrific massacre and other crimes the international terrorist group Hamas ruthlessly unleashed against innocent Israeli civilians on October 7, 2023, including kidnapping, rape, beheading children, burning people alive, and murdering a baby by placing him in an oven.

In response to these atrocities, Attorney Tlaib made several public statements evincing deeply discriminatory, antisemitic views that call into question her character and fitness to practice law,” the group wrote.

In addition to the 1,200 deaths, terrorists also kidnapped as hostages approximately 240 civilians, including women on Oct. 7.

The House censured Tlaib on Nov. 7, citing how she called Hamas’ attack an act of “resistance” against Israel, spread false information about the war, insisting that the disproven New York Times story that Israel had “bombed a hospital” even after it was proven to be false. She also doubled down on her defense of the phrase “from the river to the sea,” which demands the end of Israel.

Coolidge Reagan said that Michigan-licensed attorneys “cannot recklessly lie” or “be permitted to use antisemitic slogans from Foreign Terrorist Organizations,” and that this “conduct is wholly unprofessional and reflects horribly on the Michigan legal community of which Attorney Tlaib is a part.” The group also asked for the Michigan Bar to “pursue appropriate sanctions against her” after an investigation.

Tlaib was admitted to the Michigan bar in January 2007 after being graduated from Thomas M. Cooley Law School in 2004.
