Hey ladies and gentlemen, this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America
0:04
And you guys know, Rashida Tlaib, the Squad, they keep getting in trouble
0:09
But this time, I mean, you know, if somebody wants to be a jerk, could bring criminal charges
0:15
Before we get started, please make sure you like, comment, share, and subscribe

Those little things really help us out, and they help our channel continue to grow
0:24
Now, there's a reason I didn't say she could face criminal charges in the headline of this video
0:29
And there's a reason I'm going to tell you right away that I don't think that's going to happen
0:33
I don't think that charges are going to be pressed. What I'm saying to you is they could be
0:38
Because you can't just do whatever you want because you're a congressperson, or you work for a congressperson
0:45
You can't actually assault people. You don't want to answer their questions? Fine
0:49
Walk away from them. Congress people do it all the time. Senators, presidents do it all the time
0:54
But you can't assault them. And so what happened here with Rashida Tlaib is one of her staffers gets a little too overzealous
1:05
And while she's being approached by a Fox News reporter, and he's hitting her with questions
1:10
he's hitting her with questions about Netanyahu possibly coming to visit and make an address to Congress
1:16
He was invited by Speaker Mike Johnson. I think it's a great idea because, hey, look, I support Israel
1:22
Huge Israel supporter. And I think that we are doing the right thing by providing them weapons and funds to fight the terrorists over there
1:30
so the terrorists don't come here. Totally in support. But, you know, listen
1:36
We want to hear your plans, right? We're giving you all this money. We'd like to hear your plans
1:40
Zelensky came and he spoke to Congress. Netanyahu should do the same
1:45
I believe he's willing to do the same. Doesn't seem to be an issue with it except for the squad members and people like them
1:54
Who are just really anti-Israel. They're really anti... I'm going to say anti-Israel
2:01
I want to say anti-Semites, but I'm not going to cast that aspersion. You can judge that for yourselves
2:06
I believe they're anti-Semitic. You guys, again, I'm not going to judge for you
2:11
You decide on your own. But I think it's more than just Israel to them
2:15
Because they don't have a problem giving money to Ukraine. They just have a problem giving money to Israel
2:19
So you have to ask yourself, what's the difference? Now, Mike Johnson wants Netanyahu to come
2:26
The squad obviously does not want him to come. Because God forbid you hear a viewpoint that's not your own, you might melt
2:33
And so the guy who's with her, he gets a little overzealous and actually assaults a Fox News reporter
2:40
The Fox News reporter says to him, we got that on video, that's assault. That's a direct quote
2:45
Don't think they're going to press charges on it. But I want you to watch it and then let me know if you would press charges
2:50
Let's take a look at the video. Well, sometimes it can get dangerous in the business of covering politics
2:57
Today our Fox Capitol Hill crew had to fight off an umbrella being used by a congressional staffer to obstruct an attempted interview
3:05
Quite something you don't see every day. Senior congressional correspondent Chad Bergram shows us tonight
3:09
Umbrella gate already. Good evening, Chad. Brett, good evening. Progressives oppose a possible invitation for Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu to address a joint meeting of Congress
3:21
A sunny day in D.C. But an aide walking with squad member Rashida Tlaib deployed an umbrella to block the sunlight of questions
3:31
What happens if Netanyahu comes to speak? Mr. Tlaib, what happens if Netanyahu comes to speak
3:38
Is that a mistake by the speaker to extend this request? What do you think if the Democratic leaders agree to that request as well
3:46
Would you attend? Would you protest in any form? I don't know
3:50
Inviting a war criminal to Congress is a sham. It's shameful. Say that again
3:56
We got blocked. Say that again, please. We have it on video, guys
