'''Keith Maurice Ellison''', born August 4, 1963 (age {{age|1963|8|4}}), is a [[radical]] [[Democrat]] [[Attorney General]] of [[Minnesota]].

Ellison opposes the [[police]] and is an advocate of [[defunding the police]] and lawlessneess in the traditional [[Western civilization]] sense. Ellison is, however, the first [[Muslim]] to take the oath of office on the [[Koran]] to serve in the [[United States Congress]].

Ellison went to an Islamic [[hajj]] pilgrimage to [[Mecca]] in the winter of 2008, becoming the highest ranking U.S. official since [[John Brennan]] to make the pilgrimage. After claiming he paid for the trip, it was determined to be paid for by a U.S. group tied to Islamic extremists, the Muslim American Society of Minnesota,<ref>[https://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=101400 Keith Ellison's office hangs up on WND] WorldNetDaily, June 17, 2009</ref> a group founded by the [[Muslim Brotherhood]], which Ellison allegedly knows nothing about.<ref>[http://weaselzippers.us/2012/07/22/keith-ellison-d-cair-i-dont-know-anything-about-the-muslim-brotherhood-reality-the-muslim-brotherhoods-us-branch-paid-for-him-to-make-the-hajj-to-mecca-in-2008/ I Don’t Know Anything About The Muslim Brotherhood], [[Weasel Zippers]], July 22, 2012.</ref>

==DNC racism==
Despite being the DNC's top fundraiser which ordinarily would bestow the chairmanship on a candidate, Ellison was relegated to the back of bus as Deputy Chair, a position created especially for him. He was given this role in February 2017 by a vote of the full Committee after losing the election for Chair to [[Thomas Perez]], who has been accused of vote rigging delegates for the nomination of Hillary Clinton in 2016.

==Radical ties==
Ellison is known for having ties to radicals such as [[Louis Farrakhan]]<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/fact-checker/wp/2018/03/09/dnc-vice-chair-keith-ellison-and-louis-farrakhan-no-relationship/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.7bc431c8c504 DNC vice chair Keith Ellison and Louis Farrakhan: ‘No relationship’?]</ref> and [[Erwin Marquit]].

In 1992, Minneapolis Police Officer Jerry Haaf was executed at the Pizza Shack by four members of the Vice Lords Gang. The gang’s leader, Sherif Willis, was shown to have been involved in the planning of the murder, but he was never charged because police said they lacked sufficient evidence. At the time, Ellison was a Minneapolis attorney in private practice. Willis was a convicted murderer who ran a gang front called United for Peace. Following this public execution, within a month of Haaf’s murder, Ellison stood shoulder to shoulder with Willis, going so far as to participate in the organization of a gang demonstration against police. Months later, Ellison spoke at another demonstration in support of one of Haaf’s killers.<ref>https://bigleaguepolitics.com/busted-keith-ellison-photographed-with-portland-antifa-leader-deletes-pro-antifa-tweet/</ref> In October, 1992, Ellison helped organize a United for Peace demonstration against the Minneapolis Police. Ellison stated, “The main point of our rally is to support United for Peace in its fight against the campaign of slander the police federation has been waging.”

===Nation of Islam===
[[File:Ellison and Marquez.png|right|300ppx|thumb|Ellison with [[Portland]] Antifa leader Luis Enrique Marquez. Antifa was declared a terrorist organization after starting the [[2020 leftwing riots|2020 Minneapolis riots]].]]
Ellison was an active supporter and local leader of the [[Nation of Islam]] before his election to Congress. Ellison first sought office as Democrat in 1998 as Ellison-Muhammad, a self-avowed member of the Nation of Islam. This is just one of three known Nation of Islam names Ellison has used over time.

===Symbionese Liberation Army===

In 2000 Ellison spoke at a fundraiser for [[Symbionese Liberation Army]] (SLA) member Kathleen Soliah, who had been a fugitive on the run from justice for 25 years, on charges of attempting to bomb L.A. police officers in 1975. In his [[National Lawyers Guild]] speech, Ellison had kind words of support for cop killers Mumia Abu-Jamal and “Assata Shakur” aka Joanne Chesimard, who was wanted for the murder of New Jersey State Trooper Werner Foerster in 1973.

===ACORN===
The House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly to defund ACORN, 345–75 on September 17, 2009. Seventy-five Democrats, including Ellison, stood with [[ACORN]] and voted no.<ref>[https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/blogs/beltway-confidential/House-votes-to-cut-off-ACORN-funding-59647917.html House votes to cut off funding, but 75 stand by ACORN, Washington Examiner, September 17, 2009]</ref> This was despite widespread allegations of voter fraud, ties to prostitution including child trafficking, and defrauding the IRS.

===Antifa===
:{{See also|Antifa|2020 Antifa riots}}
As DNC Deputy Chair, Ellison was an early [[community organizer]] and promoter of the violent [[fascist]] organization Antifa.

==Congressional career==
He represented the 5th Congressional District of [[Minnesota]] which is comprised heavily of Somali refugees. He was replaced by [[Ilhan Omar]].

It is traditional for newly-sworn members of the [[House of Representatives]] to repeat their oaths with their hand on a [[Bible]] for photographers.<ref>http://www.beliefnet.com/story/206/story_20604_1.html</ref> When Ellison was ceremonially "sworn-in," he used a [[Koran]] that once belonged to [[Thomas Jefferson]].<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D8MEPKIG0&show_article=1</ref>

Despite taking his oath of office on the [[Koran]], Ellison is supportive of the [[Progressive]] [[coalition]] that promotes destroying Western civilization and the [[homosexual agenda]]. In 2007, Mr. Ellison compared the [[Bush Administration]] to [[Nazi]] [[Germany]].<ref>https://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,289157,00.html</ref> Ellison has also claimed the Bush Administration staged 9/11.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lC4ZVHViWo</ref>

In 2015 Ellison attempted to deny [[Geert Wilders]] the right to enter the United States.

===Violations of the Logan Act===
Ellison traveled with House Speaker [[Nancy Pelosi]] to [[Damascus]] to visit [[Syria]]n [[dictator]] [[Bashar al-Assad]] in 2007. The visit occurred despite protests from the [[US State Department]] and Bush [[White House]] for fear of delivering mixed signals to the Assad regime. ''[[USA Today]]'' headlined a story declaring the Democrat delegation brought "a message of peace for Assad".<ref>http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/world/2007-04-04-pelosi-syria_N.htm</ref> In 2011, the Democrat regime of [[Barack Obama]], and [[Secretary of State]] [[Hillary Rodham Clinton]] announced, "Assad must go", unleashing the [[Syrian Civil War]] which has claimed 300,000 lives. One third of all Syrians as of 2016 are homeless, and six million Syrian refugees have entered [[Europe]], straining the European social system. Bashar al-Assad remains firmly in power, now supported by [[Russia]]n troops in Syria.

==Early life==
Born in [[Detroit]], [[Michigan]], he converted from Catholicism to [[Islam]] while in college. Ellison is quite controversial due to his past ties with the radical black supremacist group the [[Nation of Islam]]; he has also been accused of having had involvement in [[anti-Semitism]].<ref>https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/09/10/AR2006091000951.html</ref>

Aside from the Gateway Pundit article, which may not be true. The latest I've heard is that the protestors are still occupying the vicinity. [[User:AlexG19|AlexG19]] ([[User talk:AlexG19|talk]]) 00:44, 13 June 2020 (EDT)
