Two women have accused an aide to Vice President Kamala Harris of barring them from entering a campaign event because they were wearing hijabs.
A video that has amassed 1.8million views on X appears to show two women being blocked from entering a campaign event in Las Vegas over the weekend.
The video, posted Tuesday morning by an account called Nevadans for Palestinian Liberation, was filmed by a woman who can be heard but not seen.
She and another woman, who is briefly shown to be wearing a hijab - headscarf worn by some Muslim women - confront a young man who is staffing the event about not being let in despite having an invitation.
The women question the staff, who the Las Vegas Review-Journal report are from both the state and county Democratic Party, about why they are being denied entrance before beginning to make the claim that it is because of their hijabs.
A spokesman for the Democrat party said the women were banned for disrupting previous events.
When the staff don't directly respond to their questions, the pair chide them with labels like 'racist' and 'Islamophobic.'
'Is it because of our scarves?' asked one of the women after being told they would not be allowed in.
The local outlet reported that an aide with the Biden-Harris re-elect campaign said the two women were part of a group of people who were not allowed in the event because of previous disruptions they had caused.
As passersby continue to file into the event, the women tell them: 'They're (the campaign staff) disinviting us because we have hijabs on our heads.'
The women then attempt to use identity politics to shame the staffers, calling out the young man for apparently being part of the LGBT community and another black female...

The muslims have muscled their way into just about everything. It’s good to see some pushback for once.
The democrats and the muslims deserve each other. They are both dedicated to destroying western civilization. Whenever they clash with each other, an angel gets its wings.
It was a planned publicity stunt. Either they would get video disrupting the event, or video of them being “discriminated” against.
Stupid demoncraps should have voted for Trump. He wanted to keep the muzzies from immigrating here altogether.

To me, a hijab is a warning sign that a woman is taking Islam way too seriously and is to be avoided. If it’s the whole cover-up with only eyes showing, I know she is to be avoided by a wide distance, and so are the men probably forcing her to wear that.
Paging the congress slut for Somalia
Pick up the halal phone
“...because they were wearing hijabs.”
My mind is starting to come up with some ideas...
The Democrats brought them over here to begin with.
The Democrats brought them over here to vote Democrat
The Democrats better let them in a Democrat event, Hijab and all.
Or else they may vote Republican.
Denying entry is indeed bad optics. They should allow them in ... after a strip and deep cavity search. X-ray the clothes, the shoes, everything down to and including their tampon if needed.
The anti-wall party is building walls again....
Lol.
Perfect.
Whoreizontal v jihad. Harris needs a headscarf. Misogynist muslims approve.
It's not about the scarves. GFY
This is likely staged by Kommiela.
If they are pro Palestinian activists,they probably were disruptive. Tantrums & Troublemakers is part of their Brand.
if they are in the US how are men forcing them to wear the scarves?
If a couple of women wearing hijabs tried to enter a Trump rally, would they be turned away? Probably not unless they had previously been identified as disrupters, as these were at that venue. No foul.
