17 Years On: US Politicians Still Support Terror Organizations clarionproject.org/us-politicians… 
Islamist groups infiltrate both governments and cultures with relative ease. Extremism of the mind, disguised by a suit and tie, is tradecraft for well-organized Islamists — especially those within the Muslim Brotherhood.
While their elaborate networks are a complex labyrinth for the average American to navigate, 17 years after 9/11, this landscape must be mastered by elected officials. Otherwise, they are failing the American people.
Take, for example, Democratic gubernatorial candidate for governor of Ohio @RichCordray. On August 27, 2018, Cordray actually REBUKED his Republican opponent Mike DeWine for skipping a @CAIRNational event.
CAIR is an unindicted co-conspirator in a Hamas terror funding case. CAIR’s leadership routinely refuses to denounce terror groups like Hamas and Hezbollah, and CAIR is notorious for its hostility toward reformist Muslims.
Meanwhile, Michigan Lieutenant Governor candidate @Garlin Gilchrist II legitimizes the terror group Hamas. clarionproject.org/michigan-lieut…
On September 9th, 2018, @RepDebDingell (D-MI) will be speaking in a charity for the Yemeni Muslim Brotherhood group in Michigan closely affiliated with the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA).
ICNA is another well-known Islamist organization riding the tides of cultural progressives to make ideological space for its orthodox interpretation of Islam.
Political support for terror organizations continues even 17 years post 9/11 because American leadership has not been decisive or clear about identifying and labeling Islamist orgs. There is only a handful of political figures who resolutely stand up to Islamist organizations.
Current secretary of state and former congressman Mike Pompeo is one of them. In 2016, Pompeo openly challenged a local Islamic society and their Muslim-Brotherhood-supporting speaker.
Ted Cruz is another politician who understands the Islamist threat.
In 2015, he introduced the “Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act,” which draws a decisive line in the sand against foreign ideologically extremist agents. However, the bill still hasn’t made it into law.

The Muslim Brotherhood has already been banned as a terror organization in Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Russia, Syrian and Bahrain.
For America to move the needle on ideological terror, it needs to act against Islamist agents and do a better job of educating elected officials on the international league of terror — the Muslim Brotherhood.
