    Is anybody shocked?

    Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz, on at least five occasions as governor of Minnesota, hosted a Muslim cleric who celebrated Hamas‘s Oct. 7 attack last year on Israel and promoted a film popular among Neo-Nazis that glorifies Adolf Hitler, the Washington Examiner found.

    The imam, Asad Zaman of the Muslim American Society of Minnesota, joined other Muslim leaders in May 2023 for a meeting about mosque security with Walz’s gubernatorial office in Minnesota. Zaman also spoke at a May 2020 event to call for peaceful protests with the governor during the riots in Minnesota sparked after George Floyd’s death. In April 2019, the cleric delivered an invocation before Walz’s state address — just months after Zaman called for an end to a government shutdown at a press conference with Walz in January 2019.

    Zaman, who is from Bangladesh, said on Oct. 7 of last year that he “stands in solidarity with Palestinians against Israeli attacks.” That day, which saw 1,200 Israelis murdered by Hamas terrorists, he also shared an image of a Palestinian flag on Facebook in response to a post by Yusuf Abdi Abdulle, director of the Islamic Association of North America, declaring that “Palestine has the right to defend itself.” The Biden-Harris administration, Abdulle wrote in the post, was “on the wrong side of history” in “supporting the extremist Zionist regime and its illegal settlements.”

    How many meetings did Walz have with him after Oct. 7? All those meeting dates seem to pre-date Oct. 7.

    So, this guy is among a few dozen members of the Muslim community who meet with members of Walz's staff to discuss security after recent attacks on mosques. Pretty shocking stuff.

    Don't worry, the MAGAts are going to get Walz one way or another.

    When an imam supports terrorism, he sends a message. And that message is that terrorism is something he supports. He supports the idea of terrorism. Terrorism is something that is not a foreign concept to this imam.

    I suppose you're trying to say that the governor of Minnesota supported terrorism. Whatever floats your boat.

    I doubt that any of this matters. Revelations that Walz eats kittens for breakfast would not dissuade the Trump-deranged.

    Well, he's running with a cat lady, so kittens for breakfast wouldn't surprise me. Helps Harris keep the feline population down.

    Right here
    I don’t think a game of “guess who this candidate once met with!” is going to end well for anyone. Except me. I don’t seem to hang out with anyone exciting.

    That just shows how bad of a candidate Trump is. All the GOP had to do was nominate someone other than Trump

    He still has the Democrat delegates as of now, right? And the millions of fake ballot in his name are already filled out. Lol... ;)

    Because he supports it?


    "Isn't that, like, a tautology, Beavis?"

    "Shut up, Butt-head!"
