Rashida Tlaib’s Alleged KKK Chant During the State of the Union

Outlets report that Tlaib chanted KKK during the State of the Union as Republicans chanted USA.

Right-leaning outlets generally cast her conduct as an outburst drawing criticism or possible consequences, while some also focus on her protest during the address or a separate accusation against Trump.
