Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) is now fundraising over her canceled trip to Israel, giving credence to theories alleging the entire trip — and ensuing controversy — was a “political stunt.”

The fundraising email by Democracy for America, a far-left political action committee, asks supporters to “chip in whatever you can to stand with [Tlaib] and [Rep.] Ilhan [Omar (D-Minn.)] now as they continue to fight for justice for all,” the Washington Free Beacon reported.

The email comes days after Tlaib and Omar were barred from entering Israel due to their continued support for the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement. Tlaib characterized the decision as being “banned from traveling to Israel and Palestine.”
