A window on the muslim brotherhood in america

Elibiary (cont’d): For example, in early 2011, after completing myspeech at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), I ap­proached Patrick Poole, a terrorism investigative reporter, and handed him my business card offering to talk and explain things after his publicbroadside of me in Andrew Breitbart’s Big Peace news site for helpingthe Department of Homeland Security with its Countering Violent Ex­tremism (CVE) policies.

I never heard from Patrick until 8 months later when he emailed me re­questing my response to his charge against me of mishandling classified intelligence, a charge I would later be publicly cleared of a few monthslater in a congressional hearing after an investigation by our government.

Similarly with Texas Congressman Louie Gohmert, as he personally re­called our interaction on a conservative talk radio program, I privately walked up to him in June 2012 at the Texas GOP Convention and of­fered to answer any of his concerns about my work. Unfortunately, theCongressman declined my offer and proceeded to, within about a monthin partnership with Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, CongressmanTrent Franks and others, to fire off a letter to the Inspector General ofDHS requesting I get investigated for Muslim Brotherhood influence.

The questions Reps. Bachmann, Gohmert and their colleagues asked the Inspec­tors General to investigate remain unanswered. In light of what has happened in the inter­val in Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Syria and elsewhere that has helped expose the Islamists’ true nature and agenda, they deserve responses, now more than ever.
