(Analyst's note: Let hope this troubling information will lead to direct investigations of Mr. Ellison.)
 Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn. |
A Muslim congressman says there is no need to investigate interns who may be placed with members of strategic security committees by the Council on American-Islamic Relations.
Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., who took his oath of office holding his hand on a Quran instead of a Bible and had CAIR staff members working on his campaign, read a statement in Congress criticizing the call for an investigation.
Lawmakers John Shadegg, R-Ariz.; Sue Myrick, R-N.C.; Paul Broun, R-Ga.; and Trent Franks, R-Ariz., earlier asked the House sergeant at arms to investigate whether the D.C.-based Muslim group carried out its plan, revealed in the book "Muslim Mafia" by Dave Gaubatz and Paul Sperry.
In another letter, this one to Attorney General Eric Holder, the House members asked the Justice Department to reveal to Congress members why CAIR was listed as an unindicted co-conspirator in the largest terror-finance case in U.S. history.
