Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., said Sunday that he had not met with or spoken to Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan since 2013 — despite the anti-Semitic minister’s claim that the congressman visited him in Farrakhan’s Washington D.C. suite more recently.

Ellison, the deputy chair of the Democratic National Committee, wrote in a blog post on Medium that “I do not have and have never had a relationship with Mr. Farrakhan, but I have been in the same room as him.” According to Ellison, he and Farrakhan attended the same New York meeting with Iran President Hassan Rouhani “and nearly 50 others.”

Ellison said he used the meeting to push “for the release of an American political prisoner,” whom he did not name. The congressman added that he “didn’t know Mr. Farrakhan would be there and did not speak to him at the event.” […]

Ellison’s article contradicts claims made by Farrakhan in an interview published on the minister’s Facebook page in December 2016.

Tony Katz, of WIBC in Indy, has been hammering Andre Carson over his association with Farrakhan for the past 2 weeks.

But, for anyone else to ever win that district, they have to be...

1. A Democrat
2. Black
3. Named Carson

At the very least, the muzzie bass turd needs kicked off the House Intelligence Committee

His statements are loaded and give him wiggle room for taqiyya.

Right, digger48. And likewise, Republicans should play up the fact that Deputy DNC Chair Ellison is a lying racist, tho’ Tom “Skull-head” Perez, DNC Chair, is a lying racist as well. These two ugly faces heading the Demo Party may have chairs, but too bad they have jobs as well.
