A video of Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib refusing multiple times to condemn “Death to America” chants has resurfaced — and this time, it is going viral on an entirely new scale after being reposted by Elon Musk.
Within hours, the clip amassed more than 18 million views, reigniting public outrage and sparking renewed debate about Tlaib’s conduct and her place in the US Congress.
The timing of Musk’s amplification is especially noteworthy. It comes the same day a Canary Mission thread highlighted additional troubling behavior from Tlaib and her associates, placing today’s frenzy into even sharper focus. Many online are now asking what millions of Americans have been asking for months: How is she still serving in Congress?
The reaction across social media has been explosive. Supporters of Israel, national security analysts and commentators across the political spectrum argue that any elected official who refuses to denounce explicit calls for America’s destruction has crossed a line far beyond acceptable political disagreement. Musk’s repost has pushed the issue into the mainstream again — and this time, louder.
