A California Islamic school wanted to keep an open mind before Donald Trump took office. But less than a month into Trump’s presidency, the school rejected $800,000 in federal funds aimed at combating violent extremism.
The decision made late Friday night by the Bayan Claremont graduate school’s board to turn down the money — an amount that would cover more than half its yearly budget — capped weeks of sleepless nights and debate. Many there felt Trump’s rhetoric singling out Islamic extremism and his travel ban affecting predominantly Muslim countries had gone too far.
It also marked the fourth organization nationwide under the Trump administration to reject the money for a program created under President Barack Obama known as countering violent extremism, or CVE, which officials say aims to thwart extremist groups’ abilities to recruit would-be terrorists. …

Apparently so.
Deport them all, every one of them.
Sharia is Treason.

Jihad Turk serves as the founding president of Bayan Claremont, and was previously the Religious Director of the Islamic Center of Southern California.
That is pretty freaking scary.
More so every day- either for us or against us. The gray area is evaporating.
It’s like asking muslims to condemn Hamas et al.
“can’t do it”
Yes they are scary people. This is just causing them to allow us to see them as they really are; like many others that are becoming more transparent every day.
Like the 800k would have made any difference.
There is SO MUCH money to be saved in the federal budget it’s not even funny.
So much for the myth of the “Moderate Muslim”. I know...90% of muslims give the other 10% a bad name.
Why don’t they take the money to buy weapons or import more jihadis? This story smells.
So....we saved 800 thousand dollars
and
......moslums did not get 800 thousand dollars
win win if there ever was one.
sntow (StillNotTiredOfWinning)
It’s absolutely insane that we are importing a people who are so dangerous, and whose children are so dangerous, that we have to then spend $800k just at one school - in hopes of convincing them not to murder us.
Islam is a war plan.
I think what’s changed is that this program is no longer a way to funnel federal money to religious schools to do as they please, but instead, now, the money MUST be used to fight terrorism.
...and that is not something these schools want any part of.
You are too nice. If they advocate terrorism, the deserve to be arrested, tried and executed.
Oh great.... I live in Claremont.
Yep. Chilling. Maybe they are all fifth columnists.
It's worst than treason or the very worst form of treason because you may lose your life because of it merely for not being like the oppressors. It's worse than any form of racism because they kill or enslave you for not being a follower of their religion. I wonder if the left has thought about that at all? Why in the hell would they support Muslims who want to force them to worship their god or be killed for it or be thrown from roofs for being gay because as we've seen a large percentage of the lefties are gay. I can only come to one conclusion - because they want the Muslims to kill Christians who don't approve of their crotch focused lifestyle and their appetite for children. They obviously haven't thought this through but again when do they ever think about the consequences of their own actions? That would be exhibiting responsible behavior and that would be anathema to them.
