Josh Shapiro just gave away the largest Muslim grant in state history. Why?
Local and state outlets reported it—and even quietly celebrated it. But no one asked the hard questions. No one challenged the ideology, the curriculum, or the dangerous precedent. That didn’t happen until Liberty Sentinel and journalist Alex Newman blew the lid off what this really was: a taxpayer-funded expansion of Sharia under the banner of “diversity.”
In March 2025, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania awarded $5 million in taxpayer money to Al-Aqsa Islamic Academy—a Philadelphia-based Islamic school currently serving about 300 students. With this grant, the school now plans to expand to 3,000. It is the largest Muslim-specific education grant in Pennsylvania’s history—and likely one of the largest in the United States.
Governor Josh Shapiro made the announcement during a Ramadan iftar dinner, cloaking the moment in the usual buzzwords: “diversity,” “inclusion,” and “fighting hate.” He called it bridge-building. But what he built was a bridge to ideological conquest—not cultural unity.
Governor Shapiro didn’t just make the announcement. He used it to signal virtue with a now-familiar script:
“We are building bridges… promoting inclusion… and standing up to hate.”
— Gov. Josh Shapiro, Ramadan 2025
No, Governor. You’re funding religious indoctrination—an ideology rooted in supremacism and submission, not pluralism.
The $5 million came from Pennsylvania’s Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program (RACP)—a fund that’s supposed to support infrastructure, economic growth, and public benefit projects. Roads. Housing. Public safety.
Instead, it’s being used to triple the size of a religious school with a documented ideological agenda.
This isn’t economic development. It’s state-funded ideological expansion.
And let’s be honest: if a Christian or Jewish academy had just received $5 million in public funds to expand religious education, we’d see lawsuits before the check cleared. In Oklahoma, a Catholic-backed charter school—St. Isidore of...

Shapiro: deracinated Jew.
Josh, your ‘Submission’ is showing!
Mohammedans are never grateful for largess. They believe it to be a small portion of what they are owed. The believe that Allah willed it and that whatever the can acquire from infidels by any means is theirs by right.
$5 million money laundering and payoff to the Muslims. It’s a Madrasa. The Mosque is a disgusting eyesore on Germantown Avenue. Shapiro is a typical little corrupt man who loves hiding behind the Jewish faith.

Shaprio is a scumbag.
When does he offer $5 million for a Christian school? Truth is that it should be so much more than $5 since there are so many more Christians there than muslims.
I have little love for Josh Shapiro, stemming from when, as PA AG he deliberately released findings on Catholic Priest pedophilia on the Feast of the Dormition (Assumption) of Mary.
That said: He is at least the first OBSERVANT Jew to occupy the Governor's mansion. He is the fourth Jewish Governor in PA history. He had hosted a Seder in the room which was firebombed last month.
OMG! And there isn’t one worthy charitable organization really working for Americans that this taxpayer funded money couldn’t go to? Un”freakin”believable.
Without foreign societies and nations to raid and conquer, Mohammedan societies cannot feed their own population. They turned the green coastal North Africa into desert where it had been a prodigious supplier of grain for Rome. More recently they destroyed for spite the gardens the Jews had produced in Gaza after the Jews were removed from there. In North Africa a population reduction resulted along he old Roman dominions due to the dearth of grain. Mohammedans only know about sheep. Sheep convert savanna into desert In Gaza the Moslems continued to grow in population because of the world foolishly pouring food into Gaza. In a couple of generations the grain fields of Germany and truck gardens of Britain. will be desert and the dominant Moslem tribes will have to go east for further conquest of food and things the Mohammedans will never make for themselves.
