There are plenty of Muslims who could tell Cindy Axne a great deal about weaponizing religion, but like all Leftists, she is determined not to notice their existence, or to associate them with Islam at all. The Left has its favored religion, and it isn’t Christianity.
“After Mocking Christians, Democrat Cindy Axne Dons Hijab at Iowa Islamic Center,” by Jacob Bliss, Breitbart, April 13, 2022:
After vulnerable Rep. Cindy Axne, Iowa’s lone congressional Democrat, mocked Christians during an out-of-state campaign event with a far-left activist group, she donned a hijab at Iowa Islamic Center while looking to make a positive impression on voters ahead of the upcoming election.
Axne, last September, was caught on a recording during an appearance with a far-left activist group from New York, Markers For Democracy…
“So now all the schools are back wanting to put mask mandates in, and all of the anti-vaxxer crazies are out there with their – it’s a hot mess,” Axne said was caught saying. “I’ll be honest, Christian right, everything under the guise while they hold a cross for God or whatever. They use it like a weapon, and it’s painful to watch because they’ve weaponized religion, they’ve weaponized politics.”…
“I visited the Islamic and Cultural Center Bosniak of Des Moines for an Iftar meal and to meet with members of es-Selam Mosque,” she wrote on Facebook about her weekend. “I left with my arms full of delicious leftovers and a deep sense of pride in the diversity that makes Iowa such a rich community.”
The congresswoman, one of the top targets for Republicans to unseat this year, noted that she was looking forward to her next visit. |
