Rep. Rashida Tlaib did not hesitate to boo when Hillary Clinton was mentioned during a campaign event for Sen. Bernie Sanders in Iowa. Near the end of a panel discussion Friday night alongside Reps. Ilhan Oman and Pramila Jayapal, the moderator, activist Dionna Langford, mentioned Clinton and her recent claim that “nobody likes” Sanders. That led to boos from the audience before Langford cut them off: “We’re not gonna boo, we’re not gonna boo. We’re classy here.”

Tlaib made clear she did not agree with Langford’s plea to the audience. “I’ll boo,” she said. “Boo.” Tlaib laughed and looked at her fellow lawmakers. “You all know I can’t be quiet,” the Michigan lawamker said with a laugh. “No, we’re gonna boo.” Tlaib then said that history would prove them right: “The haters will shut up on Monday when we win.”
