*slam is incompatible with the US Constitution. No m*slim should be elected to public office. It has already happened. It is unacceptable.
Can Paul Ryan “unappoint” Carson?
Charlie in the wire!!!!
(hat tip niccolo) To get these important Congressional committee appointments, Rep Andre Carson has to be bringing in serious money for Democrats-----monies required by the DNC.
These high-level committee appointments are "positions for sale"-----a Congressional version of pay-to-play.
Every committee appointment has a dollar amount attached to it that Members desiring the positions are required to raise.
Taxpayers demand to know if Carson is channeling Islamicist cash directly into the DNC.

More shockingly, the monies required are not just for their own appointments. Reporter Sharyl Attkisson exposed Congressional Fundraising Corruption: how members buy Top Spots On Powerful Committees.
Former Congressman Zach Wamp relates his experience receiving a call from a sitting lawmaker, asking for "a donation toward the $325,000 dollars he’s obligated to pay the NRCC every year."
I sure would like to know how Dems can have such a stranglehold on this country when they are (seemingly!) out of power. Are the Repubs really this stupid?
Yes.
While Awan’s main email address began rejecting mail after it was shut down, the 123 address in Rep Andre Carson's was still accepting mail as of Tuesday.
Mail sent via Gmail fills in the name of the account-holder of 123 as Nathan Bennett, a Carson aide; Bennet's LinkedIn profile says his individual legislative portfolio covers “national security and foreign affairs” and includes work on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.
The member Bennett works for, Andre Carson, is a member of both the House Intelligence and House Homeland Security Committees, and previously employed Awan.
Carson is also ranking member of the House intelligence subcommittee on Emerging Threats, which oversees the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. The subcommittee oversight extends to the National Counterterrorism Center and information-sharing programs.
A spokeswoman for Andre Carson, Jessica Gail, did not express concern or surprise when contacted by TheDCNF about Awan’s still-active email address Monday morning. Bennett said Tuesday morning Gail had not even informed him of the details.
Bennett, who is Carson’s deputy chief of staff, told TheDCNF he has no control over the 123 address. “However this happened, it was not with my consent or control,” he said in an email. “For the record, I do not, nor have I ever, had control of the 123@mail.house.gov email account or any other account connected with Imran Awan or his family.” That could not be confirmed by the House’s chief administrative officer (CAO) because spokesman Dan Weiser has said “the CAO will not comment on matters pertaining to this ongoing investigation.”
Bennett’s response raises questions about whether Awan was misusing Carson’s office, access or staffers.
Gail declined to comment on Awan, or state whether the office is concerned he may have misused Bennett’s identity. She also declined to state whether the office has taken any measures to assess its data security since Awan’s problems came to the attention of the office in September 2016.
Carson had employed Awan since 2015, and did not fire him when his office learned Awan was the subject of an investigation in September. He also did not fire Awan immediately after he was banned from the House computer network by Capitol Police in February, payroll records show.
“...I sure would like to know how Dems can have such a stranglehold on this country when they are (seemingly!) out of power. Are the Repubs really this stupid?...”
Nope. GOPe is gutless, but not stupid. They are only one part of the UniParty. Once you realize there is only one party; the UniParty, in the swamp, things will become much clearer and easier to understand for you. BTW, the UniParty is NOT your friend, nor the friend of America.
With a stroke of his pen, the Speaker of the House (and muzzie sympathizer), Paul Ryno could remove him from these committees.
Easy as pie......so I guess the cowardly Ryan cant take the heat he’ll get.
Good comments. Totally agree.
The Dems and GOP are two sides of the same coin. Same thing, just different names.
I wonder what the orange motif is supposed to symbolize on the flowers and the scarf and do-rag on this idiot.
Yes, he might receive "heat" from dems (who don't support him anyway) and his fellow RINOs, but that comes with the job and is part of being a leader, but Ryan has never shown ANY leadership or backbone. He is only in the job for his personal interests, NOT for The Country.
Yes.
And they don’t plan to succeed.
Do you really think the democrats (the evil party, as opposed to the stupid party) wrote all 1,200 pages of obamacare after the 2008 election?
This is the guy who is in deep with the Awan family fraud and probably spy ring that infested the Congress??
V-e-r-y deep.
I guess the cowardly Ryan cant take the heat he’ll get.

The entire GOP “leadership” is nothing but a bunch of political cowards. Although they have majorities in congress, they still allow the Democrats to run the show. Nothing has really changed.
We need to hold the Repukes accountable for their pathetic weakness and their repeated failures to do what they promised. I think that will soon happen.
No background checks required for this??
Must have something do w/ Allah.
