The Republican-controlled Florida House of Representatives designated February as Muslim American Heritage Month. Its adoption is credited to the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), a Muslim Brotherhood front designated last year by Governor Ron DeSantis as a terrorist organization.

The resolution even extolled the public service of three Democratic sharia-supremacists: Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison and Representatives Ilan Omar and Rashida Tlaib. While there are Muslims who have contributed laudably to our country, these three aren’t among them.

A BanSharia.com webinar today will examine a particularly odious Muslim “contribution” to America’s heritage: Sharia’s brutal repression of women. From dressing them in bags to mutilating their genitals to marrying them off as pre-pubescent girls to allowing their husbands to beat them, Muslim misogyny has brought here the worst of the behavior of Islam’s “perfect man,” its prophet Mohammed.

The Institute for the American Future’s BanSharia.com Project hosted the next in a series of webinars aimed at exposing the threat posed by sharia – in this case, to women and girls in the United States, both Muslim and especially non-Muslim ones – and encouraging the American people to oppose its further insinuation into and imposition on this country. These webinars’ immediate purpose, like that of the project’s Save Texas, Save America Campaign more broadly, is to help make prohibiting sharia a voting issue in this year’s elections.
