Woman Hoping to Unseat Senator Susan Collins Instrumental in Keeping Female Genital Mutilation Legal in Maine

So Sara Gideon is the candidate the fake Republicans at the Lincoln Project are supporting? 

See my post a week ago about how the Lincoln Project is pouring money into Maine to defeat Collins because she “has inadequately fought back against Trump.”

True to form, so-called champions of women’s rights run in fear when Somali and Muslim groups generally tell them to run!

Maine has a huge Somali population thanks partly to Catholic Charities the refugee resettlement agency that has worked in the state for decades to diversify Maine.

From the Washington Free Beacon (hat tip: Frank):

Maine Democrat Sara Gideon Killed Bills Outlawing Female Genital Mutilation

Maine Dems argued legislation was racist

Democratic Senate candidate Sara Gideon repeatedly killed bills to outlaw female genital mutilation during her tenure as the speaker of the Maine House of Representatives.

“The Democrats, especially the Speaker of the House Sara Gideon, did everything she could in her power to just kill this bill,” said a survivor of the horrific practice.

 

Gideon leveraged her leadership position in the Democrat-controlled legislature to kill two separate bills that would have criminalized the practice of severing the clitoris of infant girls and sewing their vaginas shut. Instead, the Democrat supported a different law that would have funnelled $150,000 to her political allies to educate Mainers about the practice instead of criminalizing it, according to a former state legislator who spearheaded the push to stop the mutilation.

Under Gideon’s leadership, Maine Democrats argued that the bill was racist toward the state’s large immigrant community from Somalia, a country where the practice is “nearly universal” according to the United Nations. The Democrats also argued that the practice rarely takes place in Maine and is already outlawed by existing federal and local laws.

Gideon’s efforts have helped make Maine one of only 12 states that have not banned female genital mutilation. Such a legacy threatens to complicate her cultivated image as a champion of women’s rights, one built on her consistent support for abortion access and the #MeToo movement. The image strategy has paid off, translating into hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations and outside money support from national pro-abortion groups. Gideon did not respond to a request for comment.

Maine: Somali Man Spits on Police Officers During Arrest

So what else would you expect when the police catch you driving a stolen car and arrest you, afterall, its free-for-all time for Africans assaulting police officers.

But in the age of COVID, spitting in someone’s eye could be a deadly assault.

From WGME:

Maine man accused of spitting on police officers during arrest

PORTLAND (WGME) – A Portland man is accused of spitting on police officers while they tried to arrest him for allegedly driving a stolen vehicle.

On Saturday, South Portland police asked Portland officers to help find a vehicle that had been reported stolen in their city.

Mohamud Abdullahi. Almost every Somali in Maine is a refugee or a child of a refugee. Catholic Charities is the primary resettlement agency in that state.

Police say the vehicle was found driving on Franklin Street and was followed onto Pearl Street where it was stopped.

The occupants were detained, and the driver, identified as Mohamud Abdullahi, was handcuffed and placed in the back of a police car.

Police say after Abdullahi was told he was going to be arrested, he began kicking the cruiser door and window.

He was taken out of the cruiser, but as he was being placed in the arrest van, police say Abdullahi spit on four officers and continued to resist arrest.

Abdullahi was charged with four counts of assault and violation of conditions of release. He was also charged by the South Portland Police Department for crimes committed in their jurisdiction.

Two Portland police officers were treated at Mercy Hospital for exposure to bodily fluids because the suspect spit in their eyes, according to police.

The passenger in the vehicle was exhibiting coronavirus symptoms and is awaiting COVID-19 test results. She was not charged and was released at the scene.

Can we expect CAIR to come to his rescue (BLM right!)?

Portland police have their hands full.  Earlier this month a Somali man attempted an attack on a police parking garage, see here.

Portland, Maine Police Department Attacked by Another Ungrateful African

You likely won’t see this story in the legacy media because it doesn’t fit the meme—Black African refugee good, police bad.

And, there is a tip in this story with something you might do (assuming you are prepping your family and making your home safe, lambasting your elected officials, and buying your Goya foods)!

Thanks to Frank for the tip!

From Portland WGAN:

Police charge man connected to parking garage shooting

Police have charged a man in connection with the shooting at the Portland Police Department garage earlier this month.

Based on extensive experience posting on Hassans, I say this creep who attacked a police garage, is a Somali and most likely a refugee we welcomed to America with our tax dollars.

Abdikareem Hassan, of Portland, was arrested July 5th for driving under the influence in a stolen vehicle. The car in question matched the description of the dark sedan that opened fire on the Portland Police Department garage that same night.

While in custody, police say Hassan became uncooperative and assaulted an officer and FBI special agent in addition to damaging a police vehicle.

Hassan was then charged with refusal to submit to arrest, assault on a police officer, assault on a federal officer, and criminal mischief.

Additional evidence was provided on Sunday, linking Hassan to the non-fatal shooting, and he is now being charged with reckless conduct with a dangerous weapon and illegal possession of a firearm by a prohibited person.

Chief Clark

Portland Police Chief Frank Clark thanked the public for their support following the shooting, saying “this type of attack on law enforcement is disheartening and personal, but the overwhelming number of positive letters, social media posts, statements denouncing violence against the department, and the calls we have received reaffirm our belief that we have the support of our community.”

 

Now that is something you can do!

Even if you aren’t a Mainer, send a message of thanks to this police department and any department in the country where they are keeping you safe while under attack by lowlifes.

In my mind this is an especially egregious case because America gave him a chance at a better life and he says to us: S**** you!

If anyone has a pipeline to Tucker Carlson, he might be interested in the Maine Somali attacking the Portland police!

Maine: Social Justice Groups Collaborate with Southern Poverty Law Center to Get Teachers’ Minds Right

In my ongoing quest  (here too!) to help us all figure out ways to fight back against the Marxist Left’s attacks on our culture and institutions, here comes another opportunity (in this case for Mainers) to push back now (not waiting for the ballot box in November!).

And, let me say, there might be some silver lining to the COVID panic.

Maybe, just maybe, families will realize they can educate their kids at home and keep them out of the clutches of the likes of Shenna Bellows and the Southern Poverty Law Center, and while they are at it encourage them to find a useful trade or career path that does not involve the Left’s indoctrination centers—colleges.

From WGME:

Social justice groups offer online sessions dealing with racism in schools

PORTLAND (WGME) – The Black Lives Matter protests that swept across the country last month led to many conversations about race in America, many of them between students and teachers.

USM offers two free online classes on social reform, racism in America

Leaders at the Holocaust and Human Rights Center of Maine say not every student has the same experience in school.

No surprise that Maine progressive activist Shenna Bellows is behind the joint effort with the Southern Poverty Law Center. Here in 2017 is Bellows speaking at the pussy-hat confab in Augusta, Maine.

 

“Children of color and other marginalized groups are disproportionately impacted by bias and discrimination at school,” Shenna Bellows of the Holocaust and Human Rights Center of Maine said.

This is why the center partnered with the Southern Poverty Law Center to put on eight online sessions dealing with racism in school.

“These are very important topics to be having, especially in these times, as we are so mindful of racial inequity,” Bellows said.

These classes are a direct response to social justice movements across the country such as Black Lives Matter, and organizers say they’re focusing on teachers in grades K-12 so students can grow up knowing how to address racism.

More here.

Mainers!  Make some noise about this! The charlatans at the Southern Poverty Law Center must not get their hooks into public schools!

For others of you: Propaganda projects like this are very likely being organized in your state, so look for it and speak up!

Remember what Mark Steyn said:

So wanker*** Right’s theory that all we gotta do is sit back and let these clowns run amok and their defects will be so obvious, people will come running to us and November will be a landslide. They’ve assured us of that bollocks for decades as they lost the schools and they lost the pop culture, and they lost everything else even now, unto the statue on the village green. Speak up, speak out, to the school board, to your coworkers, to your neighbors, because you can’t have a culture war if one side doesn’t even show up.

***Wanker: Someone excessively and annoyingly pretentious and/or false.

Lewiston, ME: The Back Story on the Election of a CAIR-candidate for City Council

I have dozens and dozens of posts at Refugee Resettlement Watch about the transformation of Lewiston, Maine that has occurred over a few decades as Somali refugees have ‘found their way’ to the Maine city.

MN Rep. Ilhan Omar congratulates newly elected Safiya Khalid. I told readers at RRW about CAIR crowing over her victory here: https://refugeeresettlementwatch.org/2019/11/08/cair-crows-muslims-are-winning-big-in-local-elections/

I also have a couple of posts there that mention Safiya Khalid who won a seat on the Lewiston city council last fall to cheers from the Council on American Islamic Relations.

But, I missed the back story on how the twenty-something Somali won that seat as the darling of the local Democrat party, that is until I had an e-mail from a resident of the city who told me this horrifying tale.

This could happen to your town too!

Here is a bit of the e-mail to me from Mainer Maura Murphy:

As a resident of Lewiston, Maine who lived abroad for almost 30 years then came back to my hometown, I was horrified to see the decline and degradation. Part of it was post-industrial malaise and consequent multi-generational poverty for sure; part of it was the thriving drug trade started by dealers from other states who found central Maine’s drug capital to be an easy place to do what they could no longer get away with to the same degree in NY, MA, PA, D.C., etc.; and part of it was the abysmal way the addition of thousands of refugees and asylum seekers has been handled.

After returning to Lewiston several years ago, I was shocked to hear firsthand account after firsthand account of violence, theft, destruction of property, etc. committed by roving gangs of immigrant boys, gang bullying episodes–swept under the carpet by administrations–in all pubic schools to the point that parents have taken their kids out of schools, and much more.

I would not have believed it had I not heard directly from people who had experienced these episodes, including teacher friends who *quit* due to the double standard of permissiveness for immigrant students and other friends who have had rocks or chunks of ice thrown at their cars when driving through downtown.

See my most recent post on the killing of Donald Giusti. African Emmanuel Nkurunziza charged in his death. https://fraudscrookscriminals.com/2020/03/04/african-teen-charged-in-death-of-maine-man-wants-special-favors/

Donald Guisti’s murder by a gang of refugee/asylum seeker youth–and the unbelievable way the investigation was mishandled–was not only the culmination of simmering violence committed by immigrants, but opened the way for a new wave of immigrant entitlement and bitter resentment of the community they supposedly came to to escape the brutality of their home countries.

You may have read about a Somali immigrant, Safiya Khalid, running for city council in Lewiston? While numerous media reports celebrated her victory, they declined to mention that her campaign had ruthlessly bullied her opponent under cover of darkness at his own home, in an effort to intimidate him into withdrawing from the race.

Even though there are *audio tapes* of the harassment, Khalid’s campaign *got away with it*, thanks to extensive media manipulation and a smear campaign to try to transform outcry against the bullying into an act of “racism”.

The bullies, and Safiya herself, were and still are the top officers of the Lewiston Democratic Party, as well as local elected officials. When I found out about this bullying, my first action was to ask the victim–who was then in the hospital–if it was true. He told me it was, and gave me the recordings. When I raised the alarm to my fellow local Democrats and Khalid herself–giving them the benefit of the doubt that they didn’t know–they personally attacked *me* for telling them. This is when I knew there was a wider campaign to be sure Khalid was elected at any cost, and a friend and I did our own investigation.

I wrote the article below initially to let people know that Walter “Ed” Hill was indeed running for Ward One Representative, and to alert them to what had happened.

From Medium.com:

“I Was Afraid They Were Going to Break Down My Door.” (Walter Hill)

On the evening of August 28th, 2019, longtime community volunteer and public servant Walter Hill made his way back to his suburban Lewiston home after having had hip surgery. A few blocks away from his house, he noted the familiar figures of Lewiston Democratic Party Chair, Kiernan Majerus-Collins, and his opponent in the upcoming election for Ward One City Council, Safiya Khalid, who served as party Vice Chair. Because Hill’s close-knit neighborhood was isolated — not a place where people usually spent time unless they lived there — their frequent presence canvassing there had been noticeable for some time.

 

Members of the Lewiston Democratic Party: Alicia Rea, Christopher Hodgkins, Owen Cardwell-Copenhefer, Jared Golden, Kiernan Majerus-Collins, Safiya Khalid and Jim Lysen

 

As much as Hill was looking forward to campaigning himself, he was completely spent from his medical procedure, and just wanted to get back to the place he had called home for more than 25 years. “I really wanted to get out there and let people know I was running and have conversations about Lewiston, but I literally couldn’t move,” said Hill. “The timing just couldn’t have been worse.”

As a new wave of pain swept over Hill upon arrival at home, he took his medication, settled in as comfortably as possible on the couch and fell asleep. About 20 minutes after returning, he was jolted out of a deep sleep by the sound of pounding at his door. It got louder. He realized there was more than one person on his property. The banging and kicking got louder, and was coming from multiple directions. Both doorbells were ringing. Under cover of darkness, Hill’s house had been surrounded and was being relentlessly pummeled.

From his position on the couch and in a daze, Hill recognized the voices of two people, both officials in the Democratic Party holding multiple local and county leadership positions, Kiernan Majerus-Collins and Owen Cardwell-Copenhefer.

Go read it all!  See what happens next and consider that this is happening in America!
