When Christians are under attack, Keith Ellison looks the other way

Aside from his pledge to undo the generational damage to the economy caused by former President Joe Biden and former Vice President Kamala Harris, President Donald Trump earned the support of the electorate by promising to address the fact that the United States’s border had become more porous than a wafer-thin slice of Swiss cheese. This sparked housing crises, crime waves, and an all-out assault on the notion that sovereignty even exists in the Western world.

Unlike countless politicians that came before him, Trump has actually delivered on the border, proving that this was an entirely voluntary scandal of Biden and his handlers’ making. But when it comes to illegal immigration, there are so many more important battlefields beyond closure of the border, with deportations — by force, if necessary — being a crucial part of Trump’s duty to keep Americans safe.

And the idea of arresting — let alone deporting — illegal immigrants, including rapists, murderers, human traffickers, drug dealers, and other “bad hombres”? Woke Democrats just can’t handle it, stirring up a monsoon of insane propaganda that includes likening Trump to Adolf Hitler, and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to the Gestapo.

Because, after all, there is no difference between a sovereign nation arresting noncitizens who are in the country illegally and sending them back to their country of origin free of charge and stripping citizens of their citizenship based on whether or not they are Jewish, carting them off to Poland, and gassing them.

One demonstration of this, frankly, insane anti-ICE propaganda came courtesy of a hoard of lunatics — flanked by former CNN anchor Don Lemon — who decided that the best way to express their dissatisfaction with federal immigration policy (and mourn the tragic and yet entirely justified shooting of ICE protester Renee Good) was to storm the Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, chanting “Justice for Renee Good.”

Yes, because the civilian Christian worshippers in a church are unquestionably to blame for the actions of Good, ICE officers in Minneapolis, and the immigration policy of the Trump administration.

But this goes beyond the latest example of rabid leftists using mob tactics to intimidate others into compliance — Chauntyll Allen, a Black Lives Matter leader, justified the decision by claiming that ICE was “terrorizing our women and our children” — and cuts to the heart of the anti-Judeo-Christian sentiment of the radical Left.

Consider Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, who denied that the storming of a Church violated federal law, specifically the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act of 1994 and the Ku Klux Klan Act. Both make the denial of civil rights, including the First Amendment right of religious freedom, through interference and intimidation a federal crime.

“How they are stretching either of these laws to apply to people who protested in a church over the behavior of a religious leader is beyond me,” Ellison told Lemon.

Now, how would Ellison, a Muslim, respond if so-called protesters were intimidating law-abiding Muslims who were worshipping at a mosque? Well, as the Washington Free Beacon pointed out, that’s different, according to Ellison. He pushed as a congressman in 2015 and as attorney general in 2020 to leverage the FACE Act to target various protests outside mosques in Arizona and Minnesota.

WHAT SOUTH KOREA SHOULD LEARN ABOUT TARGETING U.S. FIRMS

What changed, you may ask? Well, it’s simple. For radical Islam and its bizarre partnership with radical leftism, our rules are only respected insofar as they aid the pursuit of radical Islam and/or radical leftism. When they get in the way, then it’s the job of Ellison and his ilk to wriggle free. So, when Christians, the world’s most persecuted religious group, or Jews, the most disproportionately targeted religious group in the nation, are the targets, Ellison will flip like a shameless dime.

And, of course, we’re called Islamophobic for daring to notice.
