‘Her theft knew no bounds’: First Muslim woman elected to PA Legislature resigns in shame

Movita Johnson-Harrell seemed to take pride in her position as the first Muslim woman elected to the Pennsylvania State Legislature. Now that record will forever have an asterisk next to it, as Johnson-Harrell has turned herself in to Pennsylvania attorney general Josh Shapiro's office, pleading guilty on charges of perjury, record-tampering, and embezzling over $500,000 in Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security disability funds, as well as donations to Motivations Education and Consultation Associates (MECA), a charity she established to allegedly serve the mentally ill and drug addicted poor in her predominately African-American neighborhood.

In a press conference, Attorney General Shapiro described Johnson-Harrell's actions as "brazen corruption ... her theft knew no bounds." Johnson-Harrell stole funds that personally belonged to the residents of her facilities and used the money to purchase fox furs and trips to Mexico, to make payments on a Porsche, to pay delinquent utility bills, to cover her granddaughter's private school tuition, and even to fund her political campaign. After the facility, where residents were living in squalor, was closed, Johnson-Harrell continued collecting their rent from MECA even though the facilities were no longer operating.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, Johnson-Harrell's dereliction of duty extended to her short time as a Pennsylvania state representative.

During her brief period in office, Johnson-Harrell seemed to spend the majority of her time celebrating herself as the first Muslim woman elected to the state Legislature, and helping to fundraise and advocate for the Hamas-linked Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR).

Two months after being in office, Johnson-Harrell flew across the country to Washington State to stand with anti-Israel BDS-supporter Congresswoman Ilhan Omar at a CAIR fundraiser with a separatist theme "Muslim Power for 2020 & Beyond."

Shame? I doubt she feels shame. I suspect she is proud of how much damage she did to the infidels.

The rest are just as bad, I’ll bet.

Too bad we don’t have any Investigative Journalists left in the world save for Sharryl A.!

I was tired of people who look like me not protecting people who look like me[.] ... I got here by divine intervention, I’m going to leave by divine intervention. I have been obedient to Allah.


Resigned in shame?

In Islam lying, stealing, cheating of infidels is permitted. In her soul, if she has one, she knows she did nothing wrong.

I read “PA” and thought Palestinian Authority...but she wouldn’t be booted from that for being a liar, cheat, & thief.

“Acknowledging her arrest, Movita Johnson-Harrell tweeted, “Allah v Akbar” (God is greater), expressing no regret or sorrow for the people she hurt, but instead positioning herself as a martyr, tweeting, “My life is one of service. If I have to suffer persecution to save one from the grave then God’s will, not mine be done.””

Playing the victim card even before arrest. Pathetic.

Since she is Muslim, shouldn’t her hand be cut off upon conviction

Actually, Movita is a typical African politician.

“My life is one of service.” .... To myself.

Another animal.

Muslim America is a contradictory term.

I never know when PA means “Pennsylvania” or “Palestinian Authority” or “pass attempts” or who knows what else.

This is what muslims do. I've heard this same story time and time again, different actors, same plot.

As is “Muslim Americans”.

Muslims in America is the correct notation no matter what their passports say. They are loyal to Sharia and the world Ummah, and are here to conquer.
