Rashida Tlaib’s Ex-Husband is Related to Her Mother

 By

Her uncle explained that she married a relative of her mother’s.

A freshman member of Congress and one of the first Muslims elected to the House of Representatives married a relative.

According to a November Haaretz report, the father of Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), Harbi Elabed, married her mother Faiza Tlaib in the mid-1970’s before the couple moved from Palestinian-occupied territory to live in the United States permanently.

Rashida Tlaib has the same married name as her mother’s maiden name. It has been confirmed that Rashida’s ex-husband, Fayez Tlaib, is related to her mother, which explains the shared last name.

Tlaib’s mother reportedly visits her relatives in the village of Beit Ur al-Fauqa regularly, though Tlaib herself has not been there since 2006.

She has also been plagued by a residency scandal, and stands accused of lying about her address in order to run for office. Big League Politics exclusively reported:
