Huma Abedin:
At the age of two, she moved with her family to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, where she was raised and lived until returning to the United States for college.
In 2010, Abedin was included in Time magazine’s “40 under 40” list of a “new generation of civic leaders” and “rising stars of American politics”
In a letter dated June 13, 2012, to the State Department Inspector General,
Five Republican members of Congress—Michele Bachmann of Minnesota, Trent Franks of Arizona, Louie Gohmert of Texas, Thomas J. Rooney of Florida, and Lynn Westmoreland of Georgia—claimed that Abedin “has three family members – her late father, her mother and her brother – connected to Muslim Brotherhood operatives and/or organizations.”
The five members of Congress alleged that Abedin had “immediate family connections to foreign extremist organizations” which they said were “potentially disqualifying conditions for obtaining a security clearance” and questioned why Abedin had not been “disqualified for a security clearance.”
The claims in the letter were generally rejected, and were labeled by some as conspiracy theories.[23][26] The Washington Post editorial board called the allegations “paranoid,” a “baseless attack,” and a “smear.” The letter was also criticized by, among others,
note: Remember the Muslim ass kisser names.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Representative Keith Ellison, Democrat of Minnesota, the first Muslim member of Congress, who called the allegation “reprehensible.” Senator John McCain, (dirt bag RINO) Republican of Arizona, also rejected the allegations, saying….
“The letter and the report offer not one instance of an action, a decision or a public position that Huma has taken while at the State Department that would lend credence to the charge that she is promoting anti-American activities within our government….
These attacks on Huma have no logic, no basis and no merit.” Bachmann’s former campaign manager Ed Rollins said the allegations were “extreme and dishonest” and called for Bachmann to apologize to Abedin. The Anti-Defamation League condemned the letter, calling upon the Representatives involved to “stop trafficking in anti-Muslim conspiracy theories.”
