AOC blubbers bursts into tears as Iron Dome's $1bn funding is OVERWHELMINGLY approved in House 420-9
2021-09-24
  • The House passed the Iron Dome bill in an overwhelming 420 to 9 majority

  • Rep. Rashida Tlaib went after the bill because its text expresses a US endorsement of the Israeli military's rocket campaign against Gaza in May

  • Rep. Ted Deutch, a moderate Democrat, condemned Tlaib on the House floor

  • Tlaib is the only Palestinian-American elected official in Congress

  • She called Israel an 'apartheid state' that the US was 'enabling' Wednesday night

  • $1 billion was originally allocated toward the Iron Dome in Democrats' continuing resolution to avert a partial government shutdown

  • It was swiftly removed from the bill after progressives threatened to tank it
