Freshman Rep. Kat Cammack, R-Fla., got the spotlight when she announced she would place an Israeli flag outside her office because she opposes neighbor Rep. Rashida Tlaib, the first Palestinian-American woman elected to Congress. While there is no issue with supporting Israel, the situation has highlighted what is in fact wrong with America - hyphenations. While Tlaib waves her Palestinian Flag and Cammack her Israeli one, Omar Her Somali one and even pelosi with her Italian flag, who is actually American first? A 1980's invention has turned from a source of ethnic pride to the reason America is fractured - nationalism is dead.

Tlaib is the epitomy of evil and everyhting MAGA fights against, however even the respect we have for Israel, who is arguably one of our most loyal and valuable allies cannot justify the acceptance of a foreign flag being flown inside the AMERICAN PEOPLE's Capitol.

The fact there are Italian flags, Irish flags, Somali flags and the non-existent Palestinian State flag is part of the problem with America - no one is loyal to America first and this is the issue here.

"Rep. Tlaib, who has an office right next to mine in DC, has some strong opinions about Israel that [100%] I disagree with, so I’ve made a pledge to plant Israel’s flag outside my door right next to the American flag. I think it’ll be very helpful as she walks past both every day," Cammack posted on Twitter on Wednesday morning.

the group shared an article on Cammack’s flag pledge, writing “Gators for Israel is proud to continue building a strong relationship with our newly sworn-in member of Congress.”

Cammack endured some criticism for her tweet.

"Oooh, good one! Maybe next you can look into planting Apartheid-era South African flags near your Black colleagues’ offices. Or maybe just some Jim Crow-era signage at the water coolers?" Palestinian-American political scientist Omar Baddar replied to her on Twitter.

"Congressional members were elected to take on pressing issues impacting their constituents, not publicity stunts. Rep. Tlaib is focused on solving issues and showing up for her constituents. One can only hope that Rep. Cammack will do the same," Tlaib's spokesman told The Times of Israel.

Tlaib has likewise faced criticism for her remarks about Jews as well as her backing for the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement against Israel.

Tlaib was criticized by House Republicans last year after describing the "calm feeling" she felt when imagining the Holocaust. Though, after criticism, the congresswoman hurried to explain that her critics were policing and "twisting" her words and maintained the comments she made.
