It’s no secret Joe Biden’s re-election campaign faces big problems—but the latest hurdle came out of nowhere: It’s a brand new wake-up call threatening Biden from a fellow Democrat.
A member of his party’s most left-wing contingency, “The Squad,” has warned Biden he’s losing their support.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., handed down the threat at a conference in the swing state of Michigan on Saturday.
Tlaib is so far left she thinks Biden—who held up aid to Israel—is too pro-Israeli.
“The International Court of Justice just ruled that the Israeli government must stop its invasion of Rafah. But, President Biden says what’s happening in Gaza is not a genocide,” Tlaib said. She went on to call Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu a “genocidal maniac.”
“Where’s your red line, President Biden?” she asked.
Tlaib then warned the White House that Muslims and far-Left protesters were going to organize against him, or at least sit out the 2024 presidential election.
“Detroit—we birth movements,” said Tlaib, referring to campus protesters. “It is disgraceful that the Biden administration and my colleagues in Congress continue to smear them for protesting to save lives no matter faith or ethnicity. It is cowardly.”
“I’ll be damned if I’ll wait 10 years before they apologize to you for doing what’s right in this moment,” she continued.
Then she let Biden have it with one simple question: “But we’re not gonna forget in November, are we?”
To make sure he—and his campaign advisors—didn’t miss the message, she added, “President Biden, I hope you hear us loud and clear.”

Biden has heard from the anti-Israel movement, nationally and in her state, before.
Tlaib’s sister, Layla Elabed, helped organize the “Listen to Michigan” write-in campaign designed to protest Biden’s Middle Eastern policies.
She asked those who want Biden to completely cut off Israel from U.S. weapons and foreign aid to write in “uncommitted” instead of voting for Biden in the state’s presidential primary.
“Uncommitted” won 12 percent of the Democratic primary vote in Michigan this April.
Biden attracted only 80,000 votes—about half as many as failed Republican presidential hopeful and former Trump appointee Nikki Haley.
Some members of Congress have said it’s Tlaib who should be worried, saying the venue where she made the remarks is tied to terrorism. The speech happened at the three-day-long “People’s Conference for Palestine,”
A few minutes before she walked onto the stage, a DJ got the crowd warmed up into a white-hot outrage for her.
One of the organizers told attendees they were going to hear a “medley of songs from the first Intifada.”
One of Tlaib’s fellow speakers was Wissam Rafidi, a member of a Communist terrorist group called the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).
Another speaker, Sana’ Daqqa, was the wife of a PFLP terrorist who got sentenced to life in prison for kidnapping and murdering an Israeli soldier.
The group that owns the conference’s website, The People’s Forum, is “funded by multimillionaire Marxist Neville Roy Singham, who was born and became wealthy in America but now lives in Shanghai where he funds a number of propaganda sites boosting the Chinese Communist Party,” according to an investigation launched by The Free Press, a website run by former New York Times reporter Bari Weiss.
Some members of Congress have said Tlaib should resign or be thrown out of Congress for appearing on the same stage.
“.@RashidaTlaib should be removed from Congress immediately. Associating with and speaking before groups that are funded by US designated terrorist organizations is disqualifying,” said Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y.
“When people choose sides – you should believe them,” added Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas.

Even opposition from terrorist sympathizers terrifies the Democrats these days. Biden has had nothing but bad news about his campaign for months.
Tlaib’s icy call-out follows a heartbreaking poll for Biden showing a majority of Democrats still want to replace him as their nominee, even five months away from the election.
A survey released this Tuesday from the pollsters at Rasmussen Reports shows 54 percent of Democrats would approve if the party steps in and deep-sixes Joe Biden...but they’re not delusional. 57 percent say it’s not likely to happen.
Biden continues to bleed support from traditional Democratic voting constituencies: black Americans, Hispanic voters, even young people whom he keeps pursuing with his failed student loan “forgiveness” measures.
As The Horn reported this week, polling data show that Biden now trails former President Donald Trump among every demographic group in America with one exception: Biden leads, strongly, with single women.
How bad a sign is it for the Biden campaign that the president of the United States is campaigning for the pro-terrorist vote?
