Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Michigan, spoke at the People’s Conference for Palestine and offered controversial and foul-mouthed sentiments to the audience.
The congresswoman called out so-called “genocide enablers” from the podium, firing up the audience with her typical radical leftist fare.
Watch:
Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib addressed the People’s Conference for Palestine in her hometown of Detroit today, where she paused to deliver a message to the “genocide-enablers” in the halls of power:
“Look at this room, motherfuckers! We ain’t going anywhere.”

“They thought they could kill us, rape us, imprison us, violently uproot us from our olive tree farms, starve our children to death, and we would disappear. Well, guess what? Now we’re in Congress and we’re in every corner of the United States,” she said.
“Y’all, they just don’t get it. They just don’t get it! They will never truly comprehend, even after seven decades, that we aren’t going anywhere. We are just getting started. I want to say to all of them, every genocide enabler: look at this room, motherf*ckers. We ain’t going anywhere,” Tlaib added, to cheers from those in attendance.
But somehow, that wasn’t even the most offensive part of the event. At another point, during a panel titled “No Weapons for Genocide: The People Demand an Arms Embargo,” a Ph.D student named Sachin Peddada reportedly called the United States “evil” and said the the “idea of America” must be “destroyed” in people’s minds.
Watch:
If there’s one soundbite that I hope becomes synonymous with the People’s Conference for Palestine — beyond all the Hamas mentions — it’s this:

Sachin Peddada: “We Live in an Evil Country”
At the People’s Conference for Palestine, Sachin Peddada — Research Coordinator for Progressive International and a PhD student at UMass Amherst — painted the United States not just as flawed, but as fundamentally wicked:

“We live in an evil country,” Peddada said, adding later, “And, therefore, the thing to do is to destroy the idea of America in Americans’ heads so that they can see the humanity of everybody outside the warping of American exceptionalism and imperialism and all these evil things.”
The Anti-Defamation League called out the event on X:
2/2 As we’ve seen recently, some media outlets—including mainstream ones—ignore the hateful rhetoric some of these individuals engage in and keep offering platforms and lionizing those who support violence against Jews. Let’s hope this event at least serves as a reminder.

“This weekend’s People’s Conference for Palestine again promoted antisemitic tropes, glorified terror & violence and called for Israel’s destruction. What’s deeply troubling: elected officials like Rep. Tlaib participated alongside two speakers affiliated with terrorist orgs,” they wrote. “As we’ve seen recently, some media outlets—including mainstream ones—ignore the hateful rhetoric some of these individuals engage in and keep offering platforms and lionizing those who support violence against Jews. Let’s hope this event at least serves as a reminder.”
