Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D., Mich.) shared a tweet on Wednesday for a fundraiser for Baitulmaal, a Texas-based nonprofit with ties to the Taliban and Hamas, the Washington Free Beacon reported.
Tlaib retweeted a post from critical race theorist Khaled Beydoun, who himself fundraises for Hamas and aids “families of martyrs of the Palestinian people.”
According to the Middle East Forum, Baitulmaal often partners with Unlimited Friends Association for Social Development, a Palestinian group that distributes funds to the families of Palestinian terrorists, what is known as “pay to slay” payments.
The Facebook page of Unlimited Friends Association for Social Development refers to “Nazi Zionist jails” and “the filth of most dirty Jews.”
Last year, anti-Semitic activist Linda Sarsour hosted a fundraiser for Baitulmaal and raised tens of thousands of dollars.
The tweet has since been removed from Tlaib’s account. Tlaib and Baitulmaal did not respond to Free Beacon‘s requests for comment.

Treasonous! She should be stripped of her seat since she in violation of her oath. Send her to the Taliban and let them do what only the Taliban knows how to.

This is not the 1st time or the last. Bring her & her family to Kabul airport for a nice vacation! Hopefully she will bring Omar & the rest of the squad with her! Maybe they can exchange a spot with people who would love to come here & respect Our country!
1. She has not violated her oath.
2. She cannot be stripped of her seat except by a vote of 2/3 of the house of representatives. And that is simply not going to happen.
