Now, decades later, the right wing is reviving that same playbook, this time with Muslim Americans and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/minneapolis-gay-bar-dumps-anheuser-busch-blasting-company-over-integrity-amid-dylan-mulvaney-debacle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">trans people<\/a>,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe GOP is trying to recruit Muslim Americans, a community that makes up less than 2 percent of the U.S. population, against another tiny, marginalized group of Americans, transgender people,\u201d Psaki said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe right-wingers, the conspiracy theorists, the birthers, they now want us to forget the years they spent fear-mongering about Muslims and Islam,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Ok stick with me here..

What actually drags a parent out \u2026 to protest? It has to be a lot. Parents are busy. They\u2019ve got jobs, they\u2019ve got kids, they don\u2019t really have a lot of time to protest, but they did it on Tuesday outside the Board of Education meeting because Maryland\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-best-interests-of-children-have-often-come-dead-last-watch-mcconnell-tear-into-teachers-unions\/\" title=\"\u2018The Best Interests Of Children Have Often Come Dead Last\u2019: Watch McConnell Tear Into Teachers\u2019 Unions\">largest school district<\/a> will not allow them to opt out their children from books and lessons that have certain LGBTQ lessons that they find objectionable,\u201d Kelly said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMaryland state law doesn\u2019t allow the opt-out provision unless it\u2019s a specific unit on sex ed, and this isn\u2019t technically sex ed. They\u2019ve folded it in under English language arts curriculum. And these parents think it\u2019s inappropriately sexual and has messages with which they do not agree when it comes to trans people,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd so they\u2019re going out there saying, \u2018You can teach what you want,\u2019 they\u2019re not saying you have to shut down the lesson plan, but, \u2018They\u2019re our kids, and we should be permitted to be able to opt them out.\u2019 And the school says, \u2018No, you can\u2019t,\u2019\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis doesn\u2019t get covered on its substance \u2014 a debate about whether the parents are right or wrong, or what\u2019s in the text. It gets covered by MSNBC as \u2018the white man is evil and manipulative,\u2019\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Edward Ahmed Mitchell, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/a-world-that-misunderstands-suffering-thinks-euthanizing-healthy-people-is-a-cure\/\" title=\"A World That Misunderstands Suffering Thinks Euthanizing Healthy People Is A Cure\">national deputy director<\/a> at the Council for American-Islamic Relations, said that \u201cliberal commentators\u201d need to \u201caccept that Muslim parents are independent, intelligent people speaking for themselves,\u201d according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/islamic-leader-challenges-psakis-claim-muslim-parents-manipulated-by-gop-were-not-political-puppets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fox News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe sooner they accept this truth, the sooner they can start addressing the substantive concerns these parents are raising. Then again, maybe they just can\u2019t and don\u2019t want to address the concerns these parents are raising,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMuslim Americans are not political puppets. Most of us are independent thinkers who could care less what the political right (or political left) want us to do. Most of us are speaking up for what we think is right for the sake of God\u2019s pleasure, not at the urging of a political party,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/watch-whitey-megyn-kelly-roasts-psaki-claim-gop-recruit-muslims-transgenders\/\">Watch: &#8216;Whitey is at it Again!&#8217; \u2013 Megyn Kelly Roasts Psaki Over Claim GOP &#8216;Recruit&#8217; Muslims Against Transgenders<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\">The Western Journal<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Talk show host Megyn Kelly criticized former White House press secretary Jen Psaki&#8217;s claim that Republican operatives were using Muslims to target transgender individuals.
