Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) is introducing a resolution to censure a member of the so-called “Squad.”

On Thursday, the Georgia congresswoman took to the House floor and accused Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) of engaging in “antisemitic activity, sympathizing with terrorist organizations, and leading an insurrection at the United States Capitol complex.”

She went on to read several of Tlaib’s comments over the years which she argued were antisemitic.

Greene then claimed the Michigan congresswoman “led” an insurrection at the Capitol complex, which “put members of Congress, their staffs, and Capitol visitors in danger by shutting down elevators, stairwells, and points of egress, while obstructing official business in both the House of Representatives and the Senate.”

Tlaib, the only Palestinian-American member of Congress, has been highly critical of Israel, which she claims is an apartheid state.

She has stood by claims promulgated by Hamas, which governs the Gaza Strip, and carried out a massacre in Israel on Oct. 7, that Israel bombed a hospital, killing hundreds.

Despite an assessment from U.S. intelligence officials that the blast was caused by an errant rocket launch from within Gaza, Tlaib has continued to blame Israel.

In a statement on Monday, she said, “Media outlets and third-party analysts have raised doubts about claims and evidence offered by both Israel and the Gaza Ministry of Health, and I agree with the United Nations that an independent investigation is necessary.”

“I cannot uncritically accept Israel’s denials of responsibility as fact, especially in light of confirmation from the World Health Organization that Israel has bombed numerous medical facilities in Gaza and reports from the Palestinian Red Crescent Society of ongoing threats from the Israeli military to evacuate hospitals,” she added.

It was unclear what “insurrection” Greene was referring to. According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, an insurrection is “an act or instance of revolting against civil authority or an established government.”

She appeared to be referring to an Oct. 18 pro-Palestinian protest in the Cannon House Office Building. Hundreds of demonstrators were arrested for occupying the rotunda of the building. However, they were not seen revolting against the government.

It was not clear why Greene believed it should be characterized as an insurrection, or what evidence she had Tlaib led the protest as it was organized by progressive Jewish groups.
