How the Tlaib censure vote went: 4 GOP cowards and 22 brave Dems

From the White House to the Hill, Congress votes 'Tlaib must chill.'

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) the one and only Palestinian American in Congress, has been an obvious, if not overt, anti-Semitic Israel-hating, Hamas-supporting Muslim woman. She had nothing to say when Israeli men, women, children and babies were mercilessly slaughtered by Hamas invaders, but was lightning quick to attack Israel for bombing a Gaza hospital, which was quickly proven to be false. And where hospitals are concerned, is mute when Hamas uses them to build terror tunnels beneath and ambulances to transport Hamas commanders instead of their intended use for the wounded.

It's obvious whose side she is on in the Israeli-Hamasshole war and the House put forth a resolution to censure her. A censure is not a breach of the First Amendment--it is simply a tool for how the House shows its strong disagreement with her behavior.

So for those who are curious as to how some people voted, the lists below shows who voted for or against censure. In general, Democrats overwhelmingly voted not to censure Tlaib, but there were some who went against the Party knee-jerk reaction. It also shows how some Republicans went along with the Democrats and voted with them, and one Republican was too cowardly to vote anything but 'present.'

Here are the 22 Democrats who voted to censure Tlaib:

Rep. Steve Cohen of Tennessee
Rep. Jim Costa of California
Rep. Angie Craig of Minnesota
Rep. Don Davis of North Carolina
Rep. Lois Frankel of Florida
Rep. Jared Golden of Maine
Rep. Dan Goldman of New York
Rep. Josh Gottheimer of New Jersey
Rep. Greg Landsman of Ohio
Rep. Susie Lee of Nevada
Rep. Kathy Manning of North Carolina
Rep. Jared Moskowitz of Florida
Rep. Wiley Nickel of North Carolina
Rep. Chris Pappas of New Hampshire
Rep. Marie Gluensenkamp Perez of Washington
Rep. Pat Ryan of New York
Rep. Brad Schneider of Illinois
Rep. Kim Schrier of Washington
Rep. Darren Soto of Florida
Rep. Ritchie Torres of New York
Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida
Rep. Frederica Wilson of Flori

And here are the Republicans who voted against censuring her:

Rep. Ken Buck of Colorado
Rep. John Duarte of California
Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky
Rep. Tom McClintock of California

Four cowards voted present: Rep. Dave Joyce (R-OH), and Democratic Reps. Abigail Spanberger (VA), Donald Norcoss (NJ), and Susan Wild (PA).

Hopefully, you will use this list as a reminder when you next get to the polls.
