Rep. Rashida Tlaib has come under heavy scrutiny in recent years, most notably for her alleged ties to organizations like Hamas.
And more evidence has come to light that two of her campaign fundraising organizers actually were connected to an illegal financing scheme.
This is exactly the sort of thing that could damage the representative’s election chances.
The background to this story is more than a little disturbing, as it involves the terror killing of American teenager, David Boim.
Boim was waiting at a bus stop in the West Bank in 1996 when he was slain, and now it seems Tlaib has an connection to that terrible crime.
Hamas is also at the core of the situation, which is another red flag.
Via Washington Examiner:
Two men who held key positions at nonprofit groups that were found liable in a Hamas terror financing scheme helped organize campaign fundraising events for Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) in 2018.
The men were paid by Tlaib’s campaign to organize these fundraising events, and were associated with a network of nonprofit groups found liable in 2004 for financing the Boim hit.
At that time, a judge ordered the three groups pay Boim’s parents $156 million as punishment for funding Hamas.
Immediately after the order, the three groups shut down and one – The Holy Land Foundation – had its assets seized by the U.S. government.
