Rashida Tlaib has been part of secret facebook group since 6 years, Talib is continously speaking for Palestinians and against Israeli actions in Gaza also she is part of Anti-India/Hindu Lobby in US.
TUT’s Exclusive: US Democrat Rashida Tlaib is currently under scrutiny following revelations about her alleged involvement in a secret social media group where members are accused of glorifying Hamas during the recent conflict with Israel.
TUT Global Digital’s investigative report has shed light on Tlaib’s connection to the Palestinian American Congress group on Facebook, a group that is not accessible through regular searches and has been found to feature content supportive of Hamas.
Tlaib, a Democrat representing Michigan and considered as progressive lawmaker, has a history of controversy related to her stance on international affairs critics arguing her inclination and support are always for Muslim faith followers.
One significant incident occurred earlier this year when she boycotted Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s address to the US Congress, a move that was perceived by some as being anti-India and anti-Hindu.
The Palestinian American Congress group, of which Tlaib is a member, has come under scrutiny for featuring posts expressing support for Hamas, particularly in the aftermath of the October 7 attack on Israel.
A post on October 12 included a message suggesting a desire for Israelis to return to their origin, accompanied by an image of an elderly Israeli woman held captive by a Hamas fighter.
Another post on October 19 detailed the purported “achievements” of the “resistance in Northern occupied Palestine,” featuring an image of a Hamas fighter.
Critics argue that Tlaib’s association with Maher Abdel-qader, the group’s founder with a history of antisemitic social media posts, raises serious questions about her judgment and alignment with individuals holding controversial views.
Abdel-qader has been a key fundraiser for Tlaib and served as the chairman of her finance committee during her 2018 congressional campaign.
Tlaib’s decision to boycott Prime Minister Modi’s address earlier this year has further fueled criticism, with some interpreting it as a reflection of her broader anti-India and anti-Hindu sentiments. This adds another layer to the ongoing debate about the intersection of personal beliefs and political representation.
One of the concerning aspects of this situation is the alleged secret nature of the social media group, which raises questions about transparency and accountability for elected officials.
The Palestinian American Congress group, being hidden from non-members and not appearing on the platform’s search engine, has prompted concerns about the extent of Tlaib’s engagement in conversations that may not be accessible to the public.
As controversies surrounding Tlaib continue to surface, questions linger about the impact of her affiliations and statements on her constituents and the broader political landscape.

The broader context of Tlaib’s political career, including her long-standing association with Abdel-qader, has become a focal point for those scrutinizing her actions.
The intricate web of connections, from fundraising to campaign involvement, underscores the challenges that arise when elected officials are linked to individuals with controversial views.
