Radical DNC Chair Favorite Keith Ellison Calls for Trump Impeachment Investigations
Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn. (F, 26%), the front-runner to be the next Democratic National Committee chairman (and who, in December, had been set to appear at a radical Islamist conference), has called for impeachment “investigations” into President Donald Trump.
During Wednesday’s CNN debate with seven other candidates for the DNC chairmanship, Ellison pushed the idea that Trump should be on the chopping block just one month into his presidency.
“I think that Donald Trump has already done a number of things which legitimately raise the question of impeachment,” Ellison said, agreeing with others on the stage on the issue.
“We need to begin investigations not to go after Donald Trump but protect the presidency of the United States to make sure nobody can monetize the presidency and make profit off it for his own game,” said the Minnesota congressman.
Such bombastic commentary is not unusual for Rep. Ellison, who used to write under the byline “Keith X Ellison” (in homage to Malcolm X). He once compared George W. Bush to Adolf Hitler and suspected 9/11 was a false-flag inside job.
In December, Ellison pulled out of a radical Islamic conference in Chicago. He was set to share a stage with a number of unmistakably extremist individuals, including an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, multiple supporters of terrorist organizations, and an advocate for suicide bombings against Jews and the death penalty for homosexuals.
Keith Ellison has previously met with prominent Hamas fundraisers, has called for the U.S. to cut off funding to Israel, and has keynoted the annual Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) conference. CAIR has had many suspicious ties with Hamas through the years.
On Saturday, 447 DNC members will gather in Atlanta to vote for the next party chair. Keith Ellison, may soon bring his radicalism with him as the public face of the DNC. Ellison’s biggest challenge in the DNC race is Tom Perez, former labor secretary under President Obama.
