Conservatives slammed Gov. Kathy Hochul for wearing a headscarf during a visit to an Islamic center in New York City over the weekend.
The Democratic governor wore a charcoal gray suit and a black scarf mirroring those many Muslim women don to symbolize modesty and their religious faith, according to a clip of the appearance at the Islamic Cultural Center of New York in Queens.
Hochul addressed the congregants during the weekly Friday Jummah prayer service, giving a shout out to “his excellency” Tareq Albanai — the United Nation’s permanent representative for Kuwait — thanking him for welcoming her to “be part of the family.”
The center later thanked her for addressing the congregation and touring its school facilities.
“Her visit was a meaningful recognition of the role ICCS plays in New York as a community partner serving and bringing together New Yorkers from across our diverse city and state.”
But some right-wing critics seized on the appearance.
“A self-described feminist voluntarily wearing a hijab to not offend/arouse Muslim men. Oh, the irony,” wrote swimmer and women’s sports activist Riley Gaines.
GOP Texas Congressman Brandon Gill also propped up the photo opp to accuse Dems of hypocrisy.

She’s SUPPOSEDLY a Catholic!! She is one DUMB CHICK with BUCK TEETH!
Head scarf!!!
Hers is a face made for a burka
Churchill said it best:
“An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.”

Democrat Gov Hochul identifies strongly as a "liberated woman"---a die-hard feminist---defining herself as "aware" of women's challenges and working to "improve" women's lives. She has championed issues like domestic violence survivor protections, reproductive rights, freeing women from male dominance, all of them anathema to followers of Islam.
Maybe the feminist-driven Hochul still thinks Muslims are “asylum seekers.” Maybe like the Brits she'll issue a “govt booklet” targeted at marauding invaders... bent on conquest ----advising them:
<>women do not need “permission” from a husband, father, brother, or any other man
<>women control what to wear, where to go, who to see,
<>and they, not men, make decisions about themselves.
Did she tell the Islamics she liberated women to work outside the home, earn their own money, attend university, travel freely, choose whom to marry — or whether to marry at all — and make their own decisions about their lives?
Sure she did....../s.
=========================================
The New Axis of Evil——liberals, Democrats, communists and Muslims. They hate God, hate America, hate us, hate democracy, and live in a cockamamie world of conquest. They actually think we, the people, will just roll over and let them take over.
Good post. You covered it all. That is the most blatant hypocrisy ever. If they take over (like they have in dozens of other countries), she would be stoned to death.
From X by Masih Alinejad yesterday:
Let me introduce you to a brave hero from my country, Iran.
She was 16 years old. Just a girl. And on the streets of Iran, she did something braver than most people do in a lifetime: she took off her hijab and burned it in public. Right in front of the regime. Right in front of the world.
That was her crime: civil disobedience. A teenage girl refusing to obey men who claimed authority over her hair, her body, her life.
Her message spoke for millions of Iranian women:
To every man who rules over women in the name of religion, honor, or culture: We do not obey you. Your laws were never made for us.
This is what real power looks like: unarmed, unafraid, unbowed.
For that defiance, she was arrested. Her family says she was tortured and killed after falling into the hands of security forces. The Iranian authorities denied responsibility and gave a different account of her death.
Her name was Nika Shakarami. She was 16.
Now ask yourself: How many women in the West know her name? How many know what she risked for a freedom they have never had to fight for?
that pretty much sums up the democrat party in its entirety...
Glad you liked the deconstruction.
Hochul’s blatant hypocrisy was front and center.
She’s looking for donations and votes.
She will be surprised at what she really gets.
This should be thrown in the Left’s face at every opportunity:
Nika Shakarami - say her name.
In particular, it should be thrown at the Left’s Islamic candidates.
The DEMONcratic party has lost its mind as they shift to
“Jihad” mode. How to get young people to see reality?
when they tell you off and walk out the door, lock it and wish them well under your breath...
Just think. If she converted, she would be covered head to toe and told to shut up. “Your lips may move, but we will hear no sound”
On the 25th anniversary of 911, the Muslim attack killing 3000 Americans in NYC, there’s the Democrat bitch governor parading around in Muslim garb sucking up bigtime. How friggin callous, how cold, and unaware. I spit in her face.
Amen
As Tell It Right insightfully posted: ...... to the cockeyed leftist mind, our culture isn’t worth preserving. They think our western culture should be destroyed and replaced with marxism, and they see Muslims as a useful tool to accomplish that goal. Meanwhile Muslims see leftists as “useful idiots”........
Hey, it’s not like she changed Death to America or anything… /s
She is such a tool.
