Rep. Rashida Tlaib went against Pelosi’s direction to create a solemn mood and not gloat, by posting a giddy video of herself the day of impeachment.
WATCH:
Schiff and House Intel Dems drank and cheered at fancy dc restaurant last night.
Rashida ‘Impeach that MF’ Tlaib posted this giddy video on Instagram today.
But Pelosi had the audacity to say on live TV today that this is a ‘somber day’ and no one wanted this.

Per FoxNews, Tlaib famously pledged earlier this year to “impeach the motherf—-r,” giving Republicans fodder to discount House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s claim that impeachment was a “somber” and “solemn” duty.
Pelosi, D-Calif., led her chamber in impeaching the president on Wednesday. House Democrats passed the articles of impeachment along partisan lines as Pelosi and others
On Thursday, President Trump posted Tlaib’s video, suggesting that progressives like Tlaib were a threat to Democrats’ political success.
“This is what the Dems are dealing with. Does anyone think this is good for the USA!” he said.

On Instagram, Tlaib also posted a picture of herself smiling with Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., who has long called for Trump’s impeachment.
The post contained the hashtag “#impeached” and the header of the photo read “MOOD” with Waters and Tlaib smiling.
