‘NOT A GAME’

CNN’s Jake Tapper Slams Marjorie Taylor Greene Resolution Against Rashida Tlaib

The Georgia congresswoman accused Rep. Rashida Tlaib of antisemitism, terrorist sympathizing, and leading an insurrection.

CNN’s Jake Tapper slammed Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-GA) censure resolution that accused Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) of antisemitism, terrorist sympathizing, and leading an insurrection. Tapper said on State of the Union, “antisemitism is not a cudgel to be used against people for political points.” Tapper described the resolution as reading like it was written by someone who learned about the Arab-Israeli conflict minutes before writing it and “twists a bunch of things that [Tlaib] said beyond recognition.” He also called out House Republicans as hypocritical for trying to censor Tlaib for her statements on the Israel-Hamas war, and lambasted Greene for labeling a pro-Palestinian protest that Tlaib participated in at the Capitol “an insurrection.” Tapper added that Oct. 7 was the deadliest day for Jewish people since the Holocaust, saying, “This s**t is not a game.”
