Tlaib calls on Blinken to resign over statements related to Israel-Hamas war

Rep. Rashida Tlaib called on Secretary of State Antony Blinken to resign in a Thursday social media post, citing a ProPublica story alleging he had rejected internal government findings about Israel blocking aid to Gaza.

“[Blinken] lied. People went hungry, and some died. He needs to resign now,” she wrote on X. Tlaib (D-Mich.), a progressive and the only Palestinian American in Congress, has been a vocal critic of the U.S. government’s policy towards Israel.
