The Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is a louche group that claims to be a “civil rights organization” but in fact is a Muslim supremacist group that spreads anti-Israel propaganda, admires Hamas, conducts voting drives for Muslim candidates, and warns its members not to cooperate with law enforcement on terrorism. It now turns out that it has been operating “without legal authority” or proper “registration” in 22 states. More on CAIR’s widespread violations of the law that have just been revealed can be found here: “CAIR political arm operating illegally in 22 states, linked to Turkish gov’t, report finds,” by Mathilda Heller, Jerusalem Post, December 9, 2025:
The political arm of the Council of American-Islamic Relations has been acting without legal authority, licenses, or registration in 22 American states, according to a joint report by the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI) and Intelligent Advocacy Network (IAN), first published in The Washington Free Beacon.
CAIR National is known for its radical anti-Israel activities, pro-Palestinian stance, and potential ties to Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood. CAIR Action is its political arm that operates as a national political-solicitation and voter-mobilization enterprise.
CAIR Action does have the ability to engage in political activity under its 501(c)(4) status. However, this is only the case if it complies with state and federal reporting laws and registrations, which the NCRI and IAN found was not the case in 22 states.
In these 22 states, CAIR Action solicits donations, collects membership dues, and coordinates votes, all without the license or registration required of political nonprofits. Even in Washington, DC, where the group is incorporated and from where it directs its nationwide activity, CAIR Action has never obtained the Basic Business License it would need to be able to operate legally. In California, it is registered but only as an out-of-state nonprofit, which does not allow it to solicit funds. In the other states, there are no registrations.
According to the report, that makes CAIR Action an unlicensed interstate political-solicitation enterprise, operating “entirely outside the legal framework required for entities seeking funds across state lines.”
This creates two legal problems: first, federal criminal exposure, such as wire fraud, deceptive solicitation, and false statements to the Internal Revenue Service; and second, state-enforced exposure nationwide. The latter is because every state in which CAIR Action solicits funds can treat its fundraising and political influence as unlawful. Because CAIR Action is openly presented as CAIR National’s political arm, any unauthorized solicitation is CAIR National’s responsibility.
The report also found that CAIR Action’s ecosystem exhibits a “converging pattern of foreign-state alignment,” especially regarding Turkey. This includes sponsorships from Turkish Airlines (state-linked), political programming hosted at the Turkish government’s Diyanet Center of America, multiple CAIR leaders’ appearances on Turkey’s state-run broadcaster (TRT World), and technical indicators showing CAIR Action’s official accounts routing through the Turkey App Store.
Taken together, these factors indicate that CAIR Action is functioning as an unregistered national 501(c)(4) political-influence machine operating entirely outside the regulatory framework that Congress requires, the report added.
NCRI and IAN urgently referred CAIR Action to the Department of Justice, the FBI, the Federal Trade Commission, and the Internal Revenue Service for investigation….
What a mess CAIR has created for itself. It could potentially have to shut down the operations of CAIR Action in 22 states. It might have to close down CAIR Action altogether. And as the just-released report gets greater coverage, the pressure on CAIR to shut down certain unauthorized operations will increase. The bad publicity for CAIR could decrease membership and drive away donors.
CAIR offers hollow bravado, but things are not looking good for this unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land trial. It could potentially have to shut down its operations in 22 states. It might have to close down CAIR Action altogether. And with this new information about CAIR Action’s violation of the law now published, how many more governors will follow the lead of Abbott and De Santis, and designate CAIR, along with the Muslim Brotherhood, to be a “foreign terrorist organization” and a “transnational criminal organization”?
࿗Infidel࿘ says
I know you mentioned “Hamas linked”, but CAIR is the US chapter of the Muslim Brotherhood, and for that reason, is even banned in Saudi Arabia, despite being ostensibly an “American” organization. Due to that, wherever the muslim brotherhood is banned – right now in Texas and Florida, – CAIR needs to be banned as well

EVERY Muslim Organization including Mosques, Muslim Schools, Sharia Courts, Islamic Centers, etc. for their funding, teaching, and supporting terrorism, discrimination, segregation, and violence against Non-Muslims as taught from Islam’s Qur’an(Qur’an 3:54; 7;99; 9:5, 29, 111; 49:15; 98:6-7, etc.). Islam is a Terrorist-Criminal Gang Enterprise.
DEGENERATE ISLAM IS ANTICHRIST, AHISTORICAL, DECEITFUL, MILITARISTIC, AND POLITICAL against the USA Constitution and Western Laws to conquer and to subjugate Non-Muslims using MUSLIM-TERRORIST-CRIMINAL-GANG ENTERPRISES with ISLAMIC LAW(SHARIA) and with CONTINUOUS, TERROR PROPAGANDA from Islam’s Qur’an to make Islam supreme(Qur’an 3:28, 54; 7:99; 8:30, 60; 16:106, etc.).
Deceitful Allah affirms Non-Muslims as enemies of Allah while Muslims continuously undermine a society from within using their man-made Qur’an with lies, obfuscation, and deceit(Qur’an 3:54; 7:99; 8:30; 60:4, etc.). Allah in Qur’an 4:101 says, “…Surely the infidels[Non-Muslims] were your clear enemies.” Allah expects all Muslim believers to war against all non-Muslims until the unbelievers convert to Islam or face a violent torment. Corrupt Allah in Qur’an 8:39 says, “And engage in war with them[Non-Muslims] until there will not be sedition and the religion will be completely to Allah…” As a result, Non-Muslims are marked for death by Islam and its Muslims.
Islam is a delusional, indoctrinating, cancerous fraud because there is NO MECCA, NO MUHAMMAD, and NO Qur’an in the 7th century AD in Saudi Arabia despite the Muslim Standard Islamic Narrative claims; the Deceitful House of Islam is founded on propaganda, lies, intimidation, and deceit where Islam’s 1400-year traditions are based on fallacy and myth including a more than 300-year gap with no documented history. Hence, NEVER give money to Islamic Countries, Islamic Organizations, Mosques, Islamic Schools, etc. because your are funding your ultimate destruction. Islam must be banned as illegal, and we have the legal right to defend ourselves from Muslim violence.
Islam’s Muslims are to be Seditionist Terrorists for Allah with their MONEY and their LIVES. Allah in Qur’an 49:15 teaches, “Surely the believers[Muslims] are only those who believed in Allah and his messenger. They do not doubt, and they performed jihad with their MONEY and their LIVES for the sake of Allah. Those are the truthful.” Again, Islam is a FACTITIOUS IDEOLOGY and CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION despicably fabricated over time into the 21sth century, and there is NO PEACE only genocidal obliteration with Islam and its deceitful Muslims(Qur’an 7:18; 8:39: 9:5, 29, 111; 11:119; 32:13, etc.).
ALLAH claims MUSLIMS are a greater TERROR than serpentine Allah in Islam’s Qur’an. Allah in Qur’an 59:13 says, “You[Muslims] are a greater terror in their chests than Allah. This is because they[Jews & Christians] are people who do not understand.” Allah in Qur’an 9:29 commands, “Engage in war with those who do not believe in Allah nor in the last day. Nor forbid what Allah and his messenger forbid, nor believe in the religion of the truth among those who have given the book until they pay the jizyah out of hand and they are subdued.”
Islam, its Mosques, its Schools, its Sharia Courts, its Organizations, etc. are Terrorist-Criminal Enterprises of hatred and enmity against all Non-Muslims as totalitarian Islam, the House of Satan, islamizes the society with impunity(Qur’an 5:14; 9:5, 29, 111, etc.). As taught from Islam’s Qur’an, Islam should be banned for its incitement, funding, and promotion of violence, terrorism, hatred, human trafficking, and discrimination against women, children, and Non-Muslims.
Allah stirs hatred against Christians until the resurrection day as Qur’an 5:14 instructs, “And some of those who say, ‘Surely we are Nasara (Christians),’ we took their covenant. So they have forgotten a part of what they were reminded of, so we have stirred up ENMITY and HATRED among them until the resurrection day. And Allah will inform them of what they were doing.” See also Qur’an 60:4.

buddyboy237 says
CAIR will double- and triple-down through high-level Islamic lawyers across various agencies.
Who within the Trump administration will take this seriously?
Sabastian Gorka has stated on his radio shows for years that CAIR has never committed an act of terror on U.S soil; therefore, it cannot be designated a terrorist organization.
RINOs in Washington, such as John Gornyn, will defend CAIR and have the ear of many other RINOS.
Point being, within our Department of War, there must be an agency dedicated to rooting out all Islamic groups within and outside our system of government.
A list of names that will fit the profile to fill such a department must be approved by those of us who have been yelling on social media for years. There must be a system in place to offset this Islamic House of War in America. We must reject anyone who states, ” Not all Muslims are terrorists, ” that mindset takes the wind out of the sails of serious investigations.. Mohammad was a terrorist and this is where it begins.
That department could be named the Phillip Haney wing in honor of his legacy.
A full report outlining the dangers of Islamic Sharia should be made public; this way, we remove the false narrative of hatred of Muslims and or Islamophobia.
A final request, no Muslims can partake in this effort within this department, Sharia demands they be obedient to Sharia above all laws. This is a matter of National Security and must be fully protected.
somehistory says
So which are the states? How about a list? It would help the authorities…AG’s and governors in those states to go after the lawbreakers.
The Feds need to work on proving RICO against these muzzies linked to terror, extortion, fraud, gang tactics, etc.
Imagine, it could be no more hoaxes against infidels claiming scarf removal, and that word some dread so much they turn a blind eye and crippled morals when muzzies speak of it.

Thank you, Hugh. I see Florida. So, with what Governor DeSantis has ordered, that could be a real beginning for ridding society of cair and its evil.
GE says
I see my state is on there—
I’m waiting a callback from my congressman on another matter, so I will be sure to bring this to his attention.

Is Arizona still purple, or has it gone blue?
GE says
Not sure if my comments are going through tonight.
But yes, I think AZ is still purple.
GE says
Trouble posting, but AZ is still purple imo. Went big for Trump in last election, but Dem Senators and Governor
GE says
Hi Infidel,
Arizona went big for Trump in the last election. But we also ended up with two Dem Senators, governor, and attorney general. District to the north of us—Tucson area—just elected Grijalva. Our congressman is a Republican. So I’d say we’re still purple at least.
GE says
I’d say we’re still purple.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Thank you, Hugh
I’m a tad surprised to see not merely blue states, but our most islamic states, such as Minnesota and Michigan there. Illinois too. Can’t the Dems at least make them legal in those states?

and the spokespeople for the mb says…al jezeera
“Muslim group CAIR to sue Florida Governor Ron DeSantis over ‘terror’ label”
“The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) says it is in the process of filing a lawsuit against Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for designating the civil rights group as a “foreign terrorist” organisation.
Hiba Rahim, the interim executive director of the state chapter of CAIR, told Al Jazeera on Tuesday that while DeSantis’s decision will not have any immediate effect on the group, it could fuel Islamophobia in Florida and across the United States.”
Woohoo! The games begin.
