Tlaib: I’m not going anywhere ‘until I impeach this president’

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) said Monday she’s “not going nowhere, not until I impeach this president,” amid ongoing attacks from President Trump on herself and three other progressive freshman congresswomen, according to CNN.

Tlaib, one of the first two Muslim women elected to Congress, made the remark at the NAACP’s national convention in Detroit on Monday.

{mosads}Trump has repeatedly blasted her and Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) and Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), accusing them of hating America and telling them to “go back” to other countries. All but Omar were born in the U.S.

Tlaib did not specifically address the Trump tweets in her speech but invoked “the squad,” the colloquial term for the four congresswomen, in her address.

“We need bold action, folks. I know what’s happening out there … it’s beyond just the four of us,” she said. “The squad is all of you. I can tell you, you are all the squad, trust me. If you support equity, you support justice, you are one of us.”

Tlaib was one of the first members of Congress to call for Trump’s impeachment, telling an audience “we’re gonna go in there and we’re going to impeach the motherf—er” shortly after she was sworn in to Congress in 2019.

Trump continued his attacks on the four on Monday, calling them a “very Racist group of troublemakers who are young, inexperienced, and not very smart” on his way to pay his respects to the late Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens.
