2 members of Congress accused of Muslim Brotherhood ties

AT: Covering the Senate hearings on Islamic terror, Tuesday’s HuffPo headline read: “Witness At Ted Cruz Hearing Accuses Congress’ Two Muslim Members Of Muslim Brotherhood Ties.” The teaser read: “This doesn’t normally happen on the Hill.” The teaser should have been: It’s about time.

I rarely venture over to the HuffPo, but I couldn’t resist reading their coverage:

In explosive testimony Tuesday, a witness before a Senate panel about Islamic terrorism accused the two Muslim members of Congress of having attended an event organized by the Muslim Brotherhood.

The charge was leveled by Chris Gaubatz, a “national security consultant” who has moonlighted as an undercover agitator of Muslim groups that he accuses of being terrorist outfits, and it was directed at Reps. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) and André Carson (D-Ind.). At the heart of his accusation is the attendance by those two members at a 2008 convention hosted by the Islamic Society of North America — a Muslim umbrella group, which Gaubatz claims is a front for the Muslim Brotherhood.

HuffPo was eager to smear Chris Gaubatz, whose impressive undercover work inside CAIR is chronicled in his book Muslim Mafia. (To learn more about him, The Clarion Project has a short interview, here.) The Huffpo continues: more here

“Ted Cruz hearing”, eh? First I’ve heard of it. MSM/GOPe embargo, I guess. Nice work, Ted, and it backs up Trump’s assertions.

You got my vote in the primaries, and this pleases me. Keep up the good work.

Sorry, I think they should round them all up.
The list is long.

Ted Cruz, hmmm? Seems I remember that name from somewhere. Oh, Yeah. LOSER!

Mr. Mxyzptik. Ted Cruz is NOT a loser by any stretch.

Should have read “two members of congress and president . . . “

There’s definitely more than just those two.

I wonder if Huma Abedin is going to write a story about this for the Journal of Muslim Minority Affairs?

There was some weird group of radicals that infiltrated Germany’s Parliament back in the 30s, and, forming a tepid rapprochement with the Communists and Democratic Socialists, was able to wrest power for themselves …
