The Ellison factor
Powerline ^ | August 16, 2018 | Scott Johnson

Will allegations of domestic abuse against DNC vice chairman Keith Ellison hurt the Democratic Party ahead of this fall’s midterm elections? DNC chairman Tom Perez says “no.” With three contributing to the story, (the AP reports) Perez’s assurance yesterday that allegations of domestic abuse against Ellison would not hurt the party ahead of this fall’s midterm elections. “Yet four days after the first public accusation of physical and emotional abuse emerged against Minnesota Rep. Keith Ellison,” they add, “other would-be allies across the nation were far less certain.” Warning: Don’t make Ellison mad while we sort this out.

[snip]Here’s the funny — funny-peculiar — thing. Ellison’s abuse of his girlfriend(s), if it took place as alleged, would be the least of his disqualifications for the office of Minnesota Attorney General. That’s the case I make in the Weekly Standard column “Can Keith Ellison turn lawman?”. Consider: (“Can Keith Ellison turn lawman?”). Consider:

• Ellison was an active member and local leader of the hate cult known as the Nation of Islam.

Ellison is also tied to the Muslim Brotherhood.

To his credit, Scott Johnson is once more giving the clarion call about this dangerous American Muslim. What law is Ellison called forth to obey? Sharia perhaps?

Haven’t heard a single thing about Ellison from the MSM since his little problem became public. It’s like he dropped off the face of the earth.

I do not understand how someone who takes the oath of office on the Koran, as Ellison did when sworn into congressional office, can faithfully uphold our laws and the Constitution.

As I understand it, Muslims believe that “Allah” is above our Constitution, and that Sharia law is superior to ours.

Doesn’t this make him ineligible?

The media has given him a free pass, but it has not dropped the HO morosa tape, and the stormy tape.

DNC’s Perez said Ellison’s sordid past does not hurt Democrat chances.

Perez knows that votes are assured if Democrats promise assisted suicide of celebrities.

Perez called actor Robert De Niro’s profane statement “**** Donald Trump” simple, but remarkably brilliant.

“If we can work this into 2018 election messages, I believe we can take back the majority, ” Perez said.

Earlier, Perez declared “abortion-on-demand was Democrats’ ticket to victory.”

That didn’t work....so Perez is moving on to magnacide: assisted suicide for movie stars, and mercy-killing of Hollywood elites as winning Democrat issues.

Meryl Streep, Peter Fonda, Tom Arnold, Jane Fonda.....the list grows daily.

“Warning: Don’t make Ellison mad while we sort this out”. Why? Because he might want to effect some more physical abuse? He shouldn’t have been elected in the first place. This latest is just a part of the problem.

Having Comrade Ellison el on the Democrat ticket is a gift. It will drive conservatives who fell just 1.8% short of winning Minnesota for Trump (Johnson and McMuffin took 5.8%) to the polls. The Crazies are already maxed out. This will give the Smith seat to Karin Housley who is already just 4 points behind.
