Congresswoman Michele Bachmann (R-MN) has accused Congressman Keith Ellison (D-MN) of having a “long record of being associated” with the Hamas-linked Council on American–Islamic Relations (CAIR) and the Muslim Brotherhood.
Evoking the days of McCarthyism, a common charge being leveled at Bachmann these days, Ellison responded: “I am not now, nor have I ever been, associated with the Muslim Brotherhood.” He accused Bachmann of religious bigotry:

Frontpage Magazine Islamic Relief USA is a widely-exalted charity embraced by the Obama Regime. Islamic Relief Worldwide was founded in the United Kingdom in 1984. Its creator is Hani Al-Banna, who previously served as a trustee in Muslim Aid. Joe Kaufman documents that one of Muslim Aid’s “partner organizations” was the Al-Salah Islamic Association, a group the U.S. government labeled a Hamas front. Al-Banna’s previous group was also involved with Muslim Brotherhood affiliates like Jamaat-e-Islami.
In 1999, IRW received a $50,000 donation from Human Concern International; a group the U.S. government says is linked to Al-Qaeda. According to the NEFA Foundation, IRW is one of the founders of a network of charities called the Union of Good that was created in 2000. It was blacklisted by the U.S. Treasury Department in 2008 for its links to Hamas. The U.S. government said it was “created by Hamas leadership to transfer funds to the terrorist organization.” It is led by Sheikh Yousef al-Qaradawi, the top Muslim Brotherhood cleric who unequivocally supports Hamas and violent jihad.
In a sane world, anyone who supports Shariah, which stands in opposition to our Constitution, should be precluded from government.
Ellison should be asked how he can, as a muslim, swear allegiance the Constitution. The two loyalties cannot coexist.
FUKE ! HEY Keith, tell that to Jimmy Carter....
Rewind to 2008, when Keith Ellison went on a 16-day hajj trip to Saudi Arabia paid for by the Muslim American Society (MAS) to the tune of $13,500.
As Scott Johnson at Powerline noted at the time that Ellison had conflicting stories about who paid for the trip:
The Star Tribune first reported on Ellison’s hajj in two puff pieces by Mitch Anderson this past December. Anderson first reported the statement of Ellison spokesman Rick Jauert that Ellison had paid for the trip himself. When Anderson returned to the story, he got such deep stuff from Ellison as this: “This is just me trying to be the best person I can be.” In the second story Anderson also reported that the MAS Minnesota paid for Ellison’s trip to Mecca, though Anderson didn’t pause to note the discrepancy between his two stories on this point.
As Fox News reported on the MAS sponsorship of Ellison’s trip, Ellison returned the favor to his benefactors by speaking at the 2007 and 2008 MAS-Minnesota conventions.
But who is MAS?
Fortunately, federal prosecutors cleared up the matter back in December 2007 when they said in a court filing in the federal appeal of convicted terror operative Sabri Benkahla (page 58, footnote 13):
MAS was founded as the overt arm of the Muslim Brotherhood in America.
The Muslim Brotherhood has paid for Ellison’s trips to Saudi Arabia.
I wish someone would ask him if he supports Gay Marriage. I’d really like to hear the Muslim perspective on that.
This shows how sensitive they are about criticism from any direction. It’s all about the election. It makes you wonder if this whole mess in the ME is about the election too and it just got out of control. By the time we get the truth the election will be over.
As for Netanyahu's alleged interference in the American election, this could be a little payback for the Clinton Administration's interference in the Israeli election in the late 1990s when they openly supported Ehud Barak vs. Netanyahu.
Breitbart.com does specifically refer to Ellison as a Muslim in their headline.
Minor nitpick: The President of Israel is Shimon Peres, who was given the job so he’d go away and stop annoying everyone.
The Prime Minister of Israel is Bibi Netanyahu, who is everything you said.
Mr. Ellison, it is you who should be more careful, lest you be weighed on the scales and found wanting, by YHWH. Your religion will not be able to save you.
Ellison is a wanna-be Muslim. He likes associating with thugs, he was first a follower of “minister” Farrakan.
Rep. Keith Ellison wrote that the Constitution is evidence of a racist conspiracy
With Rep. Peter King’s hearing on the threat of radical Islam set to begin today, Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN) has been in the news. Congress’ only Muslim member, Ellison will testify in today’s hearing and has vocally criticized its intent and purpose.
But Ellison’s past as an apologist for Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan deserves more scrutiny than it has gotten. Writing for a college newspaper, The Minnesota Daily, on November 27, 1989, Ellison wrote an article defending Farrakhan from critics. That article is not posted online but the Tatler has obtained the article in its entirety. Writing under the name Keith Hakim, Ellison wrote the following to defend Farrakhan and the NoI against charges that he and his organization are racist. Ellison/Hakim first establishes his own definition of racism, then makes the very incendiary charge that “their Constitution” is racist.
Racism means conspiracy to subjugate and actual subjugation. That means planned social, economic, military, religious and political subjugation of whites. It cannot be intelligently argued that the Nation of Islam is doing this. In fact, blacks have no history of harming or subjecting whites as a class. On the other hand, whites have it written into their very Constitution that blacks shall be considered three-fifths of a person for purposes of taxation and representation of their white owners. Their Constitution also makes provision for the return of runaway slaves. Their constitution [sic] is the bedrock of American law; it’s the best evidence of a white racist conspiracy to subjugate other peoples. (emphasis added)
The repeated construction “their Constitution” hints that, at least in 1989, Ellison did not accept the US Constitution as a legitimate source of legal authority.
Farrakhan, of course, has a very long history of making remarks that can only be fairly construed as racist, and that history dates back to before 1989, and up to the present.
Elsewhere in the 1989 article, Ellison/Hakim attacks “white barbarism,” blasts “America’s genocidal crimes,” and defends Malcolm X (Malik Shabazz’s) distinction of “colonial masters and slavers of Western Europe, America, Australia, South Africa, and Israel” as “very devilish.”
The article dates to 1989. The question is, does Ellison continue to hold any of these views today?
Agreed. Maybe skin color has a lot to do with that?
He is the poster child for why the House should be expanded to the 8500 members it would take to follow the no more than one representative for every 30,000 people that was suggested in the Constitution.
8500 members? You would need a modest sized arena to seat that may. 850 might be more practical.
Very good point.
I think the Congressman, fancying himself part of a ruling class, is offended that a foreign head of state would address the actual sovereigns of the United States, the people.
I don't believe you are correct in that. I know of no process that checks KKK membership prior to enlistment or employment by the government. In fact I remember serving with someone in the Navy who claimed he was a member of the Klan. He also claimed that the Klan had nothing to do with race, so you have to take it at face value.
Cong. Ellison, American muslims better be careful. Very careful.
Ellison is the responsibility of his voters and our loss in Congress.
