Rashida Tlaib is calling on Antony Blinken to resign over allegations that he overrode the findings of experts to keep arms shipments to Israel continuing.

CODEPINK is a feminist grassroots organization working to end U.S. wars and militarism, support peace and human rights initiatives, and redirect our tax dollars into healthcare, education, green jobs and other life-affirming programs.

Now, the Secretary of State is facing calls for his resignation. “ [Blinken] lied. People went hungry, and some died. He needs to resign now,” Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich) wrote this morning.
