U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren accused Republican challenger Geoff Diehl of attending a rally sponsored by an anti-Muslim hate group during a debate Friday night.
Her source for the description of the rally sponsor is the Southern Poverty Law Center, which is itself a hate group, as well as a serial bearer of false witness. But no matter that. Let’s talk about where the alleged hate rally took place.
Warren brought it up while talking about President Donald Trump’s attempted travel ban on six predominately Muslim countries where terrorism flourishes. Warren was against the travel ban. But it’s not enough to be against it as a policy matter. You must also accuse your opponent of bigotry.
“We know what this was all about. And we know where you stand on it,” Warren said. “You joined a rally organized by the largest anti-Muslim hate group in America. And that’s not who we are as a country. Immigration makes us stronger. This is how we build a future.”
She kept going for a while, and then moderator Jon Keller noted that Diehl wanted to respond. Here’s the back-and-forth:
Geoff Diehl: “I am not sure that she’s talking about as far as a rally with …”
Elizabeth Warren: “It was a rally in Bern, orga-ed, uh, uh, uh, by, uh, Act for America, a group that the Southern Poverty Law Center designated as a hate group, and described as the largest anti-Muslim group in America. It was on April 22nd of this year. You were there.”
Geoff Diehl: “I don’t know what she’s talking about. So we’ll have to clear that up later.”
Yes, let’s.

Please excuse her Indian accent.
Might want to warn her about that spring-loaded door as she is on her way out, as well.
