Scathing Report Exposes Rashida Tlaib's Alleged Connections to Terrorist Groups: ‘Serious Concerns’

A bombshell new report from ISGAP Action, a nonpartisan organization focused on combating antisemitism, is putting Democrat Rep. Rashida Tlaib (MI-12) in a glaring spotlight, accusing the congresswoman of maintaining a disturbing pattern of ties to individuals and organizations linked to U.S.-designated terrorist groups.

 Groups such as Hamas and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).

Go ahead and color me shocked. RedState readers, of course, will recognize Tlaib as a lawmaker nearly unmatched in her willingness to side with terrorist organizations in nearly every scenario.

The ISGAP briefing details everything, from her campaign shelling out nearly $600,000 to a consulting firm run by an activist with deep connections to terror-aligned networks, to sharing stages with convicted PFLP operatives who’ve praised violent resistance.

"Key areas of concern include her participation in conferences organized by or featuring individuals affiliated with U.S.-designated terror organizations," they write. "For instance, Tlaib has shared the stage with Wisam Rafeedie, a convicted PFLP operative, and spoken at events where banners of Samidoun (a group designated as a terror proxy by the U.S. government) were prominently displayed."

"Her comments at these events have included the glorification of 'martyrs' and calls for continued resistance, aligning her rhetoric with the ideological framework of jihadist organizations."

The PFLP is well known for having claimed responsibility for the deadly bombing of a 17-year-old girl.

"The conduct of Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, including her rhetoric, affiliations, campaign infrastructure, and ideological alignment with certain individuals and organizations, raises serious concerns about potential risks to the ethical and institutional integrity of the United States government," the report reads.

Tlaib is the congressional member who most closely shares common cause with a wide array of terrorist organizations and figures aligned with such groups. It's not particularly close.

One of the most alarming aspects of the ISGAP Action report is the revelation that the Democrat lawmaker's campaign funneled nearly $600,000 to anti-Israel activities conducted by a consulting firm headed by Rasha Mubarak.

"The collaboration raises questions about Tlaib’s ability to serve in Congress, given that the head of the firm, Rasha Mubarak, has links to organizations that have faced scrutiny for ties to Hamas and the PFLP," the briefing reads. "Mubarak was previously affiliated with the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), which was an unindicted co-conspirator in the 2009 Holy Land Foundation terror-financing trial."

These substantial payments raise serious questions about potential ethical violations, yes. But they also raise national security concerns. 

Think about that for a moment—a sitting member of Congress has verifiable ties to people affiliated with terror organizations. Those ties are a clear and present danger to the nation. And yet nobody has had the courage to force her expulsion from the House of Representatives. Amazing.

Building on the fresh allegations in the ISGAP Action briefing about Tlaib's financial and personal connections to terror-linked networks, a previous RedState analysis had already spotlighted her pattern of behavior as crossing dangerous lines far beyond standard political rhetoric.

Tlaib, having already been censured for her anti-Israel comments and for promoting war propaganda from Hamas in 2023, has a rich and established history of obscene behavior promoting terrorist sympathizers and denouncing American allies.

Five months prior to the October 7th terror attack on Israel perpetrated by Hamas and several other Palestinian militant groups, Tlaib posed for pictures and spoke to attendees at an art show advocating for Israel’s destruction and promoting known terrorists.

The Squad member posed with organizers and attendees in the gallery, which featured artwork depicting slogans used by terrorist organizations — “Power To Our Freedom Fighters, Glory To Our Martyrs,” and “Zionism will fall,” among others.

The gallery even featured artwork from a former spokesman of the “Palestinian Islamic Jihad,” a U.S.-designated terrorist group known for conducting suicide bombings. The group, an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood, held 30 hostages after the attack on Israel.

This past March, Tlaib expressed outrage over airstrikes against Houthi rebels in Yemen, a radical Islamist group that is allied with Iran, who have repeatedly targeted merchant vessels with American civilians on board.

Tlaib tearfully incited a pro-Palestinian riot in D.C. in 2023 by parroting Hamas propaganda about a hospital attack that turned out to be disinformation. Hundreds of insurrectionists incited by the congresswoman were arrested.

Representative Tlaib is one of the most anti-American members of Congress today. Her behavior has far exceeded censure levels. It's time for expulsion.

Who in Congress will have the guts to make it happen?
