MI-13: Rep. Rashida Tlaib selling 'Impeach the mf' shirts for reelection campaign

Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s 2020 reelection campaign is looking to cash in this week on the recent wave of Democratic support for an impeachment inquiry against Donald Trump by selling T-shirts with the slogan “Impeach the mf.”

The shirts cost $29, come in a variety of styles with a black or white backdrop, and take one to two weeks to ship to their destination.

“You’ve asked for ’em. And now we’ve got ’em: ‘Impeach the MF’ t-shirts!” the ActBlue fundraising page selling the shirts for the Michigan Democrat reads.

“We are at the most critical moment in our movement to impeach Donald Trump,” the message continues. “We need to keep up the momentum and get even louder to make sure Congress acts swiftly and passes articles of impeachment against this lawless president.”

On the first day of her first House term in January, Tlaib sent shockwaves through Washington with the phrase that has come to define her national political image.

Her position is a considerable one. It shouldn’t be diminished by reacting to Trump’s lawlessness in this way......just my humble opinion.

They used the language as an excuse, but the attacks were for who she is.
