John,
First, Rep. Rashida Tlaib was the target of a racist, Islamophobic
political cartoon in the far-right outlet, the National Review.
Next, major media outlets including CNN and the head of the
Anti-Defamation League promoted a harmful and fabricated lie about the
Congressmember, misquoting and misrepresenting her remarks about the
Michigan Attorney General issuing unjust criminal charges against student
protesters.
Then, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, CNN journalists Dana Bash and
Jake Tapper, and others have continued to push dangerous lies about
Rashida despite being fact-checked by the Detroit Metro Times and the
reporter of the original article they’re referring to.
[ [link removed] ]Tweet from Steve Neavling: I’m the reporter who interviewed Rashida
Tlaib. She never said Nessel did this because she’s Jewish. Never. You’re
spreading lies.
Despite the correction, CNN reporters refuse to apologize to Rashida and
AG Nessell doubled down on her attacks despite no evidence, perpetuating
Rashida’s actual point: there is a clear anti-Palestinian attitude among
many institutions, including Congress and the media, that has become far
too normalized.
This is what a smear campaign looks like,
John. CNN should be ashamed for allowing its
journalists to spread blatant lies about Rashida with impunity, but
instead, it has prioritized attacking the only Palestinian American
Congresswoman over reporting the truth.
Rashida has and will always speak up for the human rights of ALL people
despite these vicious attacks against her character, and Justice Democrats
has her back.

We will not sit idly by while members of the press and others in power
spread lies and misinformation about Rashida, a true champion for equality
and peace.
