Let me start by condemning Rashida Tlaib for calling for the destruction of Israel. And let me further condemn the alleged Republicans who voted to allow her to continue her unholy work in the House. They are:
Here are the 23 Republicans who voted to table Greene’s resolution:
- Rep. Kelly Armstrong of North Dakota
- Rep Ken Buck of Colorado
- Rep. John Duarte of California
- Rep. Chuck Edwards of North Carolina
- Rep. Morgan Griffith of Virginia
- Rep. Glenn Grothman of Wisconsin
- Rep. Harriet Hageman of Wyoming
- Rep. Bill Huizenga of Michigan
- Rep. Darrell Issa of California
- Rep. Dusty Johnson of South Dakota
- Rep. Doug LaMalfa of California
- Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky
- Rep. Tom McClintock of California
- Rep. Rich McCormick of Georgia
- Rep. Max Miller of Ohio
- Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks of Iowa
- Rep. John Moolenaar of Michigan
- Rep. Chip Roy of Texas
- Rep. Austin Scott of Georgia
- Rep. Victoria Spartz of Indiana
- Rep. Michael Turner of Ohio
- Rep. Derrick Van Orden of Wisconsin
- Rep. Tim Walberg of Michigan
Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ) posted about the slogan shortly after Tlaib posted the video on her X account.
“We hear ‘from the river to the sea’ chanted at US protests. It’s on posters, even projected on university buildings,” she wrote. “Here’s a map. See what ‘from the river to the sea’ means.”
“It means eradicating the state of Israel,” she continued. “It’s about eliminating Jews. It’s hate speech. It’s antisemitism.”

Radio host Erick Erickson wrote: “An evil monster is lying. She knows what ‘river to sea’ means. She’s too much of a moral coward to admit it.”
Rep. Derrick Van Orden (R-WI) posted: “This is reprehensible. ‘From the river to the sea!’ is calling for the annihilation of the Jewish people. I will continue to support measures to censure this member of congress and will be requesting an ethics investigation into her abominable statements.”
“Hamas is on a mission to wipe out Israel ‘from the river to the sea’—a mission from which it will never cease despite calls for a ceasefire,” said Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY). “‘From the river to the sea’ is not ‘an aspirational call’ for ‘peaceful coexistence.’ It is a genocidal call for ending the existence of the world’s only Jewish State.”
