Islamic Influence In the U.S. Government — Kamala Harris Would Pick Up Where Joe Biden Left Off
by Clare M. Lopez
We’ll cover a few categories here this month: the Biden-Harris continuing appeasement of the Islamic regime in Iran, questionable USG decisions on national security matters, and also some questionable appointments and associations of the Harris-Walz campaign team.
This first set of reports highlights the lack of national security rigor at the top levels of the Biden-Harris administration. The pattern seems to favor passes for U.S. adversaries including Iran, Turkey, and the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood network.
“Biden-Harris admin waives sanctions on state-run Iranian media” at the Jewish News Syndicate (JNS), August 21, 2024
- “Biden-Harris Admin Waives Sanctions on Iran’s Terror-Spreading State Broadcaster as Tehran Plots Israel Attack” by Adam Kredo at Free Beacon, August 19, 2024
“Why Did Pentagon Allow Turkish Muslim Citizen Access to Highly Classified Docs?” by Daniel Greenfield at Jihad Watch, August 15, 2024
“Biden regime names Mohamed Elsanousi of Hamas-linked ISNA to US Commission on International Religious Freedom” by Robert Spencer at Jihad Watch, August 12, 2024
- We’ll recall, of course, that the Biden administration appointed former ISNA president and longtime imam at the Muslim Brotherhood’s ADAMS Center, Imam Mohamed Magid, to the same Commission in August 2022. And unfortunately, it was during the Trump administration in July 2017 that Governor Sam Brownback of Kansas was named Ambassador-at-Large for International Religious Freedom. His connections to prominent Muslim Brotherhood figures are well-documented.
- “Biden’s Muslim Brotherhood-connected Religious Freedom Commissioner” by Ben Poser at the Jewish News Syndicate (JNS), August 6, 2024
Now, we include a few items here about some questionable associations and appointments by currently-serving Vice President Kamala Harris and her presidential campaign’s VP running mate, MN Governor Tim Walz.
“Kamala Harris’s Philip Gordon: Inconspicuous and influential” by Shahram Kholdi at Iran International, 08/09/2024
- The questions here are about Gordon’s possible connections to the Iranian regime’s Iran Experts Initiative influence operations network. These are questions currently being investigated by Senators Tom Cotton (R-AR) and Congresswoman Elise Stefanik (R-NY).
“Kamala Harris Picks Terror Supporter as “Liaison” to American Jews” by Daniel Greenfield at Gatestone Institute, August 22, 2024
- Ilan Goldenberg served as a member of Secretary of State John Kerry’s negotiating team during the 2013-2014 final status talks. He’s been outspoken in criticism of Israel and support for both a HAMAS role in Gaza and the Iran nuclear deal (JCPOA) and even attended at least one event held by NIAC (National Iranian American Council).
- “Kamala Harris’ New ‘Jewish Liaison’ Led Biden’s Effort to Sanction Israelis” by Joel B. Pollak at Breitbart, August 12, 2024
“Tim Walz Cozied Up to Anti-Semitic Terror Defender at 2019 CAIR Event, Photos Show” by Chuck Ross at Free Beacon, August 7, 2024
- Yes, this photo dates to 2019 when Democrat Party Vice-Presidential nominee Tim Walz spoke at a CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) event. But he’s posing in that photo with Hatem Bazian, the founder of both the Muslim Brotherhood’s American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) and its campus branch, Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP). As US campuses return to SJP-led pro-HAMAS protests once again this fall semester, the question that must be asked is whether Walz has since renounced these troublesome associations.

No, she would not pick up where Biden left off–she would be very much worse!

Re: “Islamic Influence In the U.S. Government — Kamala Harris Would Pick Up Where Joe Biden Left Off”
Sorry folks, but the problem goes back considerably further than that, at least to the two terms of Barack Hussein Obama, if not to the two terms of Bill Clinton in the 1990s. Mr. Clinton, readers of a certain age will recall, was the man who instituted imams – Islamic clerics – in the “Chaplain Corps” of the U.S. Army! And if one examines the White House guest list during Obama’s eight years, it reads like a who’s who of the Muslim Brotherhood.
Even the Bushes do not get off lightly; they were as thick as thieves with the Sunni Arabs thanks to their shared ties in the oil business. And what’s a little thing like national loyalty compared to making big bucks pumping black gold?
As POTUS, G.W. Bush was the man who stood before the American people and told the most-pernicious lies to the public about who had attacked us and why and the nature of Islam. In the hours and days after the attack, the Bush administration smuggled members of the Saudi royal family out of the country in direct violation of its own security protocols and the nation’s laws. Including several who were “persons of interest”in the ongoing investigation. Hey, nothing person, folks …. but business is business!
