🚨 EXPOSED: CAIR FOUNDED BY CONVICTED TERRORIST

CAIR-Texas was co-founded by Ghassan Elashi, a CONVICTED TERRORIST who served federal prison time for financing Hamas terror operations through Holy Land Foundation. CAIR's Texas operations were literally built on a foundation of federal terrorism convictions. How can any state or federal agency legitimately engage with an organization founded by convicted terrorists?
