Rashida Tlaib Draws Heat for Seemingly Referring to the US as ‘They’ in Post Condemning Attack on Iran

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) was called out — including by some nonpartisan critics — for seemingly referring to the U.S. as “they” in a post condemning the attack on Iran, even though she is an elected member of the U.S. Congress.

“Both the U.S. and genocidal Israel doesn’t care about the laws. This is who they are,” Tlaib posted on X on Saturday. Her post included footage of a school that was hit in the military strikes and claimed approximately 40 people were killed; The New York Times on Sunday reported “dozens” were killed in the attack, according to “Iranian health officials and state media.”
