Amy McGrath Attended Dinner Hosted by Radical Muslim Group CAIR
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 10/22/2019 | Brent Scher

As Democrat Amy McGrath was laying the groundwork for her Senate bid, she attended a dinner hosted by the Kentucky chapter of a radical anti-Israel organization that has been tied to funding of global terror networks.

The Kentucky chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, known best as CAIR, posted multiple pictures of McGrath in attendance at its annual dinner on May 11, 2019. She is currently featured in the main photo of the group's Facebook page.

McGrath launched her long-shot bid to unseat Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell in early July. Her first filing shows, however, that the campaign was already in swing at the time of the May dinner, with staff on payroll and large contributions already filling its coffer.

The McGrath campaign defended the CAIR dinner as an "interfaith event."

"Amy attended an interfaith event joined by a rabbi and a Baptist preacher and sponsored by the University of Kentucky," McGrath’s campaign manager Mark Nickolas said.

The Muslim advocacy group has well-documented ties to terrorist groups such as Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood. CAIR was named an unindicted co-conspirator by the U.S. Department of Justice after an investigation into how American charity networks were used to provide material support to Hamas. In 2014, the United Arab Emirates officially designated CAIR a terrorist organization.

McGrath, who first ran for a congressional seat in 2018, has not been vocal on Israel since launching her campaign to unseat McConnell. She has received substantial backing, however, from liberal anti-Israel group J Street, which bundled nearly $100,000 for her campaign in its opening months, according to FEC filings.

Did she eat with a knife, fork or spoon or left hand or right hand fingers? Was pork on the menu?

The McGrath campaign defended the CAIR dinner as an "interfaith event."

CAIR is nothing but a front group for fundraising for Hamas and Hezbollah.
