Soros-Funded Muslim Group Associated With Homophobia, Terrorist Defenders Endorses Biden

Biden 'honored' by endorsement

Joe Schoffstall - APRIL 18, 2020 4:59 AM

A George Soros-backed Muslim group, which cohosts a conference that in recent years drew speakers who called homosexuality a "disease" and defended terrorist groups, announced its endorsement of Joe Biden for president.

Emgage, which bills itself as the largest Muslim PAC in the country, on Thursday announced it would switch its endorsement from Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) to Biden. The group cited Biden's promises to end President Donald Trump's travel bans, increase the refugee admissions cap, and overhaul the immigration system. Biden said he was "honored" to receive the endorsement.

Emgage has collaborated with a Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated group on events that in recent years attracted speakers who openly opposed LGBT rights and supported terror groups. Last year, Emgage became an official cohost of Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) conferences. ISNA was previously revealed to be part of the Muslim Brotherhood network—though it claims it is no longer associated with the group.

The 2018 ISNA conference featured an array of homophobic speakers. One was Omar Suleiman, an imam who has called homosexuality a "disease" that will "destroy your children." Another, former ISNA president Muzammil Siddiqi, said he "supported laws in countries where homosexuality is punishable by death." Imam Shamsi Ali, an attendee who was described as a "moderate" on ISNA's website, has stated that homosexuality is an "unbearable plague."

Meanwhile, ISNA has disinvited pro-LGBT groups Muslims for Progressive Values and the Human Rights Campaign, because they "don’t fit in."

The 2018 conference also featured individuals who have come to the defense of terrorist organizations. One speaker, Council on American-Islamic Relations executive Zahra Billoo, has regularly defended Hamas and refers to Israel as an "apartheid state."

Khalid Griggs, who spoke on a panel with Billoo, has referred to al Qaeda as the "presumed perpetrators" of the 9/11 terrorist attacks and said the U.S. government used the tragedy to wage war on "legitimate resistance fighters" in the Middle East. Griggs previously launched a petition calling on the Obama administration to pardon former Black Panther Jamil Abdullah Al-Amin, better known as H. Rap Brown. Brown is serving a life sentence as a convicted cop killer.

Also included in that year's speaker lineup was Suhaib Webb, a Boston-based imam who held a fundraiser for Brown's criminal defense fund. Webb hosted the event with Anwar al-Awlaki, an imam who preached to two of the 9/11 hijackers, joined al Qaeda, and was eventually killed in a drone strike.

Anti-Israel activist Linda Sarsour, who in 2004 called for a violent "intifada" in the United States, also spoke on a panel at the conference. During the panel Sarsour warned against "humanizing" Israelis, according to audio published by the Algemeiner. Hatem Bazian, head of American Muslims for Palestine, the agent of which has defended terrorists in court, was on the panel with Sarsour.

Emgage sponsored an "Organizing Engagement in the Age of Hate" panel at the event that year and became a cohost of the conference the following year. The gathering has attracted politicians, including Sanders, former presidential candidate Julian Castro, and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D., Mich.), as speakers.

Emgage Action, the group's nonprofit arm, received a $1 million donation for organizational support from the Open Society Policy Center, Soros's lobbying shop, in late 2019.

Shame on Jill Biden for Allowing This Abuse of Her Husband to Continue

Posted at 1:30 pm on April 16, 2020 by Brandon Morse

We all know that there is something mentally wrong with former VP and presumptive DNC pick for president Joe Biden. What makes this disturbing, at least for me, is that no one around him seems to be want to stop the madness.

Specifically, it’s horrifying that his wife looks like she’s in on it.

I feel like the DNC is telling an old circus monkey far past its prime and in desperate need of retirement that it still has to perform center stage every night. I realize I’m more or less alone in this, but every day that goes by with Biden in front of a camera or a crowd, I just feel more and more sorry for him and angrier and angrier at the people putting him in the spotlight.


What makes it even worse is that Jill seems to now be accompanying Biden on his trips to the camera, and now acts as a sort of hype man in the same way Flava Flav tagged along with Chuck D.

Watch this clip of Biden completely losing all train of thought and Jill just kind of…agreeing with it? Spurring him on? I don’t know.

Thanks for that. It was a lot. 🙂 I also still vote both sides in local elections. I have the cell phone # of our current and most recent council person so that is a relationships thing. They are less likely to outwardly run under a political party per se.

I generally agree with what you said except that as your daughter gets older she will understand the liberal framework that has been fed is a lie. Though we generally think as people get older the experiences in life mature them to where this teenage/college idealism lessens but many liberals on this board proves you can grow into old liberals. Everyone has a right to vote as they see fit though and there will always be differences of opinion.

Btw, who is lilreb?

Lol, my better half. You are right we do have differences of opinion here. That's what makes it so fun.

She was up until joining the trump team part of the five at 5 on fox. Hilarious show. I still enjoy Greg Guttfeld, but no longer watch the program. A Tennessee alum has also been on the show too.

I used to watch it when I could. I never cared for Jesse

Just seeing these anchors and political celebs switch sides depending on who they work for or married to or whatever. Like James Carville and his wife. They do not think the devil of each other yet expect us to. I get political rhetoric but we are about to cross into violence.

He would be if he was a little younger and had a bit more charisma.

I don’t think Biden beat him (in a landslide) with his age or charisma, either.

IMO, primary voters wanted either less controversial, less angry, more empathetic, more centrist, more willing to work with republicans, or all of the above candidate.
