🧵 THREAD: The CAIR–Muslim Brotherhood–Hamas Pipeline They Don't Want You to See

This thread has been a long time coming.

Let's start with a simple fact:

In its 1988 charter, Hamas openly declares itself the Palestinian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood.

So here's the question:
🇺🇸 Why hasn't the U.S. designated the Muslim Brotherhood as a Foreign Terrorist Organization?
Seems obvious, right?

Here’s my answer 👇

If the Muslim Brotherhood is formally labeled a terror group...

➡️ Then CAIR, founded by leaders from the Brotherhood's U.S. network, gets implicated too.

And if CAIR gets implicated…

➡️ Then so do a lot of politicians.

📍And that’s the line no one in D.C. wants to cross.

So instead, the Brotherhood stays "undesignated."
CAIR keeps the civil rights label and keeps its tax advantaged nonprofit status.
And the public is left in the dark.

Patience as I pull the receipts.

CAIR was co-founded by Nihad Awad and Omar Ahmad.

Awad was the public relations director for the Islamic Association for Palestine, an organization that was convicted of providing material support for the terrorism in the United States and has since been dissolved.

Sorry, it's hard to trace sources - I'm finding out that a lot of the information about Awad and Ahmad are censored. For example, this is Ahmad's Wikipedia page - nearly empty.

Where Awad was Islamic Association for Palestine (IAP)'s public relations director, Omar Ahmad was its President.

IAP was one of the three subsidiaries of the Palestine Committee, all aimed at supporting Hamas.

So, CAIR co-founders Ahmad and Awad were intimately tied with the implicated pro-Hamas IAP, which was under the Palestine Committee umbrella.

What is the Palestine Committee? Well, it was formed by the Muslim Brotherhood to advance the cause of Hamas in the United States.

Palestine Committee consisted of three sub-organizations: IAP which was its "all-purpose" public-facing organization, Occupied Land Fund (which later became the Holy Land Foundation, HLF) which was its financial organization, and United Association for Studies and Research (UASR) as its thinktank.

CAIR claims that it does not receive foreign funding, but that is a lie. We know of at least one instance where CAIR received $250,000 from an official Saudi bank.

Thread continues here:

An internal memo presented in the Holy Land Foundation case shows that CAIR was considered part of the Palestine Committee itself.

So, yes -

CAIR *is* Muslim Brotherhood.

Federal documents show that CAIR was indeed founded by Muslim Brotherhood leaders, and it "conspired with other affiliates of the Muslim Brotherhood to support terrorists."

The Obama Administration would legitimize CAIR and shield it, meeting with them "hundreds" of times. John Brennan ordered the purge of "biased" training materials that portrayed Muslims in negative light.

But it was not just Obama. President George W Bush stood with Nihad Awad himself at a mosque a few days after 9/11 in a press conference to condemn rising anti-Muslim sentiment.

Obama DNI James Clapper famously labeled the Muslim Brotherhood as secular.

I cannot over-emphasize to what extent CAIR is deeply involved in Washington politics. Awad being a high-dollar donor to Nancy Pelosi is just one example - @bullfrog35 has documented many instances where high-ranking Democratic officials have spoken at CAIR or accepted CAIR awards or displayed CAIR letters in their offices.

@bullfrog35 DHS met with CAIR on civil rights issues.

In 2002, Saudi Prince Alwaleed ibn Talal donated $500,000 to CAIR. He was famously arrested by crown prince Mohammed Bin Salman shortly after the 2017 Vegas mass shooting. Talal allegedly owns the top 5 floors of the Mandalay Bay and is the subject of numerous conspiracy theories for that event.

@bullfrog35 CAIR itself is explicitly an "unindicted conspirator" in a scheme to funnel millions to Hamas.

@bullfrog35 Documents mention that the United Arab Emirates Bin Hamoodh Group and UAE minister of finance Hamdan bin Rashid finance CAIR.

@bullfrog35 CAIR also approached Saudi Arabia for 50 million dollars, although the outcome of that isn't clear.

@bullfrog35 It wouldn't be a DataRepublican thread if I didn't point out that, yeah, Soros backed CAIR:

@bullfrog35 As mentioned before, many Democratic officials cooperate with CAIR. Mamdani welcomed them. Minnesota AG Keith Ellison explicitly endorses CAIR. Most recently, CAIR welcomed the July 2025 "Hijab on the Hill" event involving the Congressional Muslim Staff Association.

@bullfrog35 I will wrap up this thread for now.

But make no mistake:

Hamas is Muslim Brotherhood.
CAIR is Muslim Brotherhood.
CAIR is financed by foreign organizations.
CAIR is deep in the machine of DC politics.

The Democratic party has a foreign operative problem.
