Of course the Detroit News tried to scrub the article from the web. The corrupt left smear and destroy those who stand in defense of freedom, individual rights and Americanism while cleaning up after the worst demagogues and haters.
Rashida Tlaib’s Father Says She ‘Lied Big-Time To Get Elected’ In Resurfaced 2010 Newspaper Article
In a March 11, 2010 newspaper article in The Detroit News, Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s (D-MI) father accused her of lying “big-time to get elected” by falsifying her address on an election affidavit.
By Ryan Saavedra Daily Wire, May 4, 2019:
Tlaib’s father, Harbi Elabed, made the accusations against Tlaib, who at the time was a freshman state-level representative from the 12th District in Detroit’s Southwest side. The newspaper article was scrubbed from the internet when The Detroit News migrated to a new website but was available in a subscription-based digital archive. The Detroit News reported:
He said his daughter misrepresented her residency when she signed an election affidavit in 2008 with the Wayne County Clerk claiming she was a citizen of Detroit.
According to that affidavit, Tlaib claimed she lived at 9123 Rathbone in Detroit. That house is owned in part by her father, Harbi Elabed, and he now says she did not live there and he was only recently made aware that she had claimed so.
“She lied,” Elabed said. “She lied big-time to get elected. I never teach her that way. I teach her the right way. It’s my house. She didn’t live there. She lived in Dearborn in her house with her husband and boy.”

The Detroit News continued:
Dearborn is not a part of the 12th House District that Tlaib was elected to represent.
Residency issues are very difficult to prove. To become a candidate, you must be a “registered and qualified elector” of that district, according to state law. That means you must have your primary residence — the address on your driver’s license and where you’re registered to vote — in that district.
There is no law however, according to state election officials, saying that a person must spend any particular number of days, weeks or months at a certain location. Perjury is an offense punishable by up to five years in prison and a $1,000 fine.
Tlaib even admitted at the time that accusations against her caused problems for her, saying: “People have questioned that a lot, but never my father and I’m sad about that. The point is I complied with the law. I moved into the district before I filed. Period.”
The Detroit News added:
According to property and tax records, Tlaib lived in a house on Tireman in Dearborn that her husband purchased a decade ago. Taxes were paid on that house in 2009 with her husband claiming it as his primary residence.
But in 2008, as Tlaib was preparing for a run for the seat, she said she separated from her husband and moved into her father’s house with her two brothers.
Tlaib said she had bills to prove where she lived but it does not appear that she ever provided those bills to the newspaper to validate her claims.
Tlaib’s father said that he came forward with the allegation because it was part of a “growing litany of transgressions that his daughter committed upon him — culminating in a dispute about care of his aged mother, who suffers from dementia,” adding that Tlaib “sided against him and in favor of his nephew in a battle of custody, a complete breach of family values.”
“My sons told me blood is thicker than water and I should keep my mouth shut, so OK, I did,” Elabed said. “Then she crossed the line with her father. When she interferes in the father’s business, when she shows him no respect. This life in politics has changed her.”
Tlaib ended up reconciling with her husband and moved next door to her father.
“It’s not surprising that he did this to me. It’s not. He was abusive to me as a girl and he’s angry at me about my grandmother,” Tlaib claimed. “I know he’s proud of what I’ve accomplished but he’s also vindictive. It’s all very embarrassing. What do they say, you can’t choose your family?”

Indeed, not only her but the entire rot that is called the Democratic Party. We are all aware that this Party its criminal horde are untouchable. The hijacking of this Republic’s Constitution occurred during the reign of the despotic Obama. Republicans have no ba**s, so continue to play with the corrupt like of Pelosi, Schumer and the above-mentioned scumbag, Tlaib a promoter of hatred, anti-Semitism/Israel and all that is not Islam.
God, if the Democrats regain the Presidency, our Republic is doomed, unless patriots turn the tide by any means.

Yes, indeed it is, Ziggy. God has given us a brief reprieve with Trump, but when he leaves office, if we get a Democrat next, America will collapse. The Muslims will help make sure of it – Obama packed more than 70,000 of them into Minnesota and Michigan during his 8 year crime spree.

This is because she is from an islamic -populated place and the INFIDEL does not have a chance. These terrible nazi-islamic controlled areas are the places that the federal crush or state troopers need to come in and find out how many are Illegal – how many are actually qualified to vote and all details that will lead to these INVADERS and illegals being DEPORTED —They need to be targeted for TREASON AND THE LAWS on the BOOKS need to be ENACTED AGAINST THESE CRIMINAL NAZI-ISLAMICS!

Still a Muslim. TRUST NO MUSLIM. They are ALLOWED to lie and deceive and their Quran is the DIRECT OPPOSITE of our U.S. Constitution.
Quran = NEGATIVE LIBERTIES
U.S. Constitution = POSITIVE LIBERTIES
I CHOOSE THE U.S. CONSTITUTION. The Quran SHOULD BE BANNED IN AMERICA!

Oh my God, Tlaib lied to get elected. Please tell me it ain’t so. The Democratic-Islamic Party is pathetic, unworthy as a political Party. Not to mention those who voted for this feckin’ waste of flesh and bone. Yes, Islam is based and preaches lying is one of the copious tenets within the Qu’ran.
The real pi**er is, the gormless, equally corrupt, treasonous and Islamic Democrats will never censure Tlaib’s vile bigotry, anti-Semitic/Israel, anti-American statements, after all, they are no different than Tlaib. They, like her, have thrived on corruption, perfidy; all this adds up to a swamp rife with Democratic parasites.

Isn’t that the truth. I have a friend, a rarity, who a way back was dealing with Arabs, Muslims. He was taken aback how shiftless, and double shuffling/lies they were. He is a Liberal; I told him, Dorrie, lying, cheating is inherent, innate, and sanctified in the Qu’ran. He, for a Liberal, took it well. I was not labeled an Islamophobe. I don’t deal with Liberals much; my extended family is awash with that ilk, so I try to avoid politics and Catholicism because of the Muslim Pope. Indeed it comes as no surprise that Tlaib lied through her teeth but no one should be shocked. Take care, Dorrie, sorry for the rant; I blame it on old age.

Nothing really surprising here except that she will not be prosecuted for her fraud. After all she is 1) a Muslim,and (2) she is a Commiecrat politician.

The fact that RT is not a resident of District 12 was uncovered last year. This is old news.
So why is she still in Congress?
Who is responsible for getting her our?
Who is responsible for putting her in jail?
I can only guess that it is the same person or group of people who were responsible for determining Obama’s citizenship and eligibility to run for POTUS.

She is also an ughlee PIT BULL looking woman. Really mean looking. Unattractive woman. The kind (like Frank said) her mother had to tie a piece of meat around her neck just to get the dog to play with her.

Taqiyya at work! Of course she lied along with her buddy from Minnesota to get further into our government which is part of their plans for Islam to become dominant in our country. The ignorant Democrats in Congress are the biggest enablers as they even excuse their blatant anti-Semitism like it’s no big deal! They’re a bunch of socialists who are out to change the very fabric of the country that made us great! More government control and you will see our rights slowly disappear. Why is this ok with people? Young people, I get that because they’re indoctrinated but we baby boomers ought to know better. Democrats are evil to the core and we can’t let them destroy everything that men and women in our military have fought and died for. Our veterans and active duty members deserve better than to watch our country turn into a socialist hell hole!
