The CAIR-Ohio interim director, Amina Barhumi, has a starring role in the Spectrum1-produced commercial for the Left-wing group “Faith in Public Life.”
A group of “faith leaders” are organizing together to protect Ohio voters from intimidation at the polls.
Here is one of the group, the Rev. Dan Clark, saying:
Protesters screaming some nasty things at voters outside of Boards of Elections in 2020, and just to have somebody standing with you, um, helping you stay strong and stay in line to vote, made a difference.
It is hard to know what he is referring to, since he gives no details, and the reporter does not mention Spectrum1 covering this in the past.
But here is a report from WKSU public radio about activity outside a polling center that does not seem to qualify as voter intimidation.
The disinformation continues as reporter Jamilah Muhammad tells us that the group marches from the Episcopal Church to the office of Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose. One might get the impression from this that the Rev. Dan Clark is an Episcopal minister. However, he is a minister in the United Church in Christ (UCC).
The United Church in Christ is a Left-wing front that has its origins in the National Council of Churches.
Any Left-wing cause you can name, the UCC is all about it.
Just for perspective, Barack Obama was a UCC member when the notorious Rev. Jeremiah Wright was his pastor. And of course the UCC is good friends with the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
When the marchers reach their destination, Amina Barhumi takes the mic to bloviate about protecting “marginalized communities.” The group includes William Barber II of the Poor People’s Campaign.
CAIR is skating on thin ice, and cracks are already forming in the Muslim/Leftist alliance.
Indeed, CAIR National does not want to pick a side in the Dearborn textbooks controversy.
Rank-and-file Muslims such as Lori Soraya, wecair, reformcair, cairvictimsforum, and altcairnational are sick and tired of CAIR.
CAIR likes the power and influence that siding with the LBGTQ Leftists gives them. That is going to cost them whatever reputation CAIR has left with the broader “Muslim community.”
“Faith leaders bring peace to the polls ahead of 2022 election,” by Jamilah Muhammad, Spectrum News, October 27, 2022:
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Faith in Public Life is a group of faith leaders that have come together to bring peace and protection to the polls.
Faith in Public Life is a group of faith leaders that have come together to bring peace and protection to the polls.
Reverend Dan Clark said that the initiative started in response to seeing an increase in hate speech, voter suppression and intimidation ahead of the 2020 election. “We saw some protesters screaming some nasty things at voters outside of (the) Board of Elections in 2020 and just to have someone standing with you, helping you stay strong and stay in line to vote made a difference,” said Clark.
Ahead of the November election, faith leaders gathered to pray for peace and fairness. They walked from Trinity Episcopal Church to the office of Secretary of State Frank LaRose. Amina Barhumi, with the Council on American-Islamic Relations Ohio, said that their work doesn’t just stop at prayer. “We combine the work to ensure that folks show up to the polls and that they are protected and we continue to do the work to make sure that the marginalized community members are showing up and they’re supported,” said Barhumi….

Per Qur’an 33:59, ‘hijab’–as most in the west define it–announces the supremacist message that Muslim women are superior to ALL other women.
O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies (i.e.screen themselves completely except the eyes or one eye to see the way). That will be better, that they should be known (as free respectable women) so as not to be annoyed.
Hijab’s message is a nonverbal slap across every ‘filthy’ kafir woman’s face.
There is nothing peaceful about that.

Deep down, the terrorists at CAIR favor the grooming of children for sex with adults, as it’s one of (p)islam’s “built ins”. But they prefer to keep it secret, and not so out in the open as it is in the government schools. A conundrum for the terrorists at the terror organization CAIR.

Groups such as CAIR are using these bleeding heart Far Left Liberal types as useful idiots as these Western fools seem to know little about whom they are trying to protect.
