(PolitiFact) Newly minted Democratic U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib has made headlines during her first week in office, from being the first Palestinian woman elected to the U.S. House to using profanity as part of a vow to impeach President Donald Trump.
Now, an offensive tweet supposedly made by Tlaib is going around social media.
The tweet reads:
“Americans have spent decades raping and pillaging my people. What goes around comes around. #FridayFeeling”
The post was flagged as part of Facebook’s efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed. (Read more about our partnership with Facebook.)
