The ruling dynasty of Qatar, the house of Al Thani, invests its massive fossil fuel profits to promote its political and theological agenda around the world. It invests in major Western properties, Hollywood studios like Miramax, global news broadcasters like Al Jazeera, terror organizations like ISIS and Hamas, and, most curiously, in American K-12 education.

Los Angeles mayor Eric Garcetti accepts $5,000,000 from Islamic terror state Qatar
Between Newsom’s Chinese mask deal and Garcetti’s deal with Qatar, California’s “nation-state” foreign policy is a national security threat. States and nations aren’t meant to have their own foreign policy.
Thanks to a $5 million donation from Qatar to the Mayor’s Fund for Los Angeles — the largest-ever single donation to the fund — the Angeleno Card program is being expanded.
Garcetti thanked the government of Qatar for the “truly generous humanitarian gift to Angeleno families.” He said the gift had special meaning, as it coincided with the start of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.
Qatar is the terror state that serves as a patron for everyone from the Muslim Brotherhood (and its Hamas branch) to Al Qaeda,
What is Qatar getting in exchange for this generosity? We’ll find out down the road.
And, like anything in Cali, illegal aliens qualify. So we’ve got a terror state funding a cash giveaway to illegal aliens.
That’s today’s California.

Let’s not ignore corrupt Lindsey Graham…. his state makes weaponary for Qatar. It takes a certain kind of moxy to be as two faced as Lindsey… He and McShame were also honored by the corrupt Ukraine President… So many corrupt Republicans too….
South Carolina is becoming home to a quiet Qatari military aircraft project
Jordan Schachtel · March 5, 2019
The nation of Qatar, a tiny Gulf state known for its vast energy riches, tiny indigenous population, slave labor economy, and, of course, its troublesome connections to international terrorist organizations, has commenced a massive but under-the-radar spending spree in South Carolina. Through Barzan Aeronautical, a subsidiary of the Qatar defense ministry-controlled Barzan Holdings, Doha has targeted South Carolina as the location for a major military aircraft initiative. The state is home to several Qatar-friendly politicians and defense industry heavyweights.
Senator Lindsey Graham has held several face-to-face meetings with high-ranking delegations from the $320 billion Qatar Investment Authority (QIA), which has pledged to invest billions into the state. Over the past couple of years, Graham has emerged as one of the major pro-Qatar voices in the Senate. He routinely takes to television and other media platforms to repudiate Qatar’s regional adversaries, while bolstering its allies. The top donor to South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster’s recent successful gubernatorial campaign is a major Qatari lobbyist. Between 2017 and 2018, Imaad Zuberi, a lobbyist who represents the ultra-wealthy QIA, shelled out over $50,000 for McMaster’s campaign, according to campaign finance reports. Zuberi told associates that his donations to Republicans were a way to pay for further access to politicians, according to The New York Times. …
What a lousy SOB. Lindsey wants “red flag” laws to give OTHERS the option to disarm you while he takes money form Qatar and makes them more powerful militarily. WHY is this being allowed?
Great post!! Thank you. Hey Felix I just saw it was you. Be well!!
great! the dems are (bought by) communists, now the repubs are (being bought by) moslems…just wonderful (NOT)!
Sure looks that way!
As a SC voter I agree. Graham has tried to change his image recently, since the death of RINO McCANN, but he is sell out and I do not forget and I do not trust him even as far as I can see him. He is all about himself and HE WILL BETRAY CONSERVATIVES SOONER OR LATER GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t it illegal to take campaign contributions from overseas?
Why would Qatar donate so much to a Ca mayor? What kind of fund set by a mayor would accept so much money from a terrorist country?
Qatar is 100% Muslim Brotherhood [MB]. They fund Hamas [also MB] in Israel for multi-millions per year. They support Iran. And they just bought themselves a mayor.
Oh, I think they already had the mayor! When the revolution starts CA must be very high on the target list.
And get this, because our official policy is not to negotiate with terrorists, negotiations with the Taliban to exchange traitor Bowie Bergdahl for Taliban terrorist murdering s.o.b. terrorists were carried on by Qatar in our behalf. When? During the Obama administration. Don’t think everyone forgets these nefarious dealings. Since we have diplomatic relations with Qatar, technically they are not terrorists and deal with Muslim terrorists on our behalf. So clever. So very clever. It makes me want to puke.

I get the distinct feeling the adhan will now be wafting over the streets of the city of Los Angeles like the death knell of freedom and liberty it represents.
I typed this so matter times ????
I still believe it’s one of the Top reason the Dems / left still get away with everything,

NO, ..You swing for the Fences !,...And that’s what they do
Answer? Roll …some ….Noggins. and watch the buffet begin
I used to play a Qatar.

What a fucking moron
But nothing is as bad as Canada true moronland
While millions are unemployed
We bring in thousands of migrant workers and hold borders open to refugees and
Immigrants in the hundreds of thousands
Don’t feel so bad, America just gave $350 million for “Refugee Resettlement”.

California has been a family feifdom (Newsome is Pelosi’s nephew) for some time under the U.S. protective umbrella. Garcetti is just making foreign policy with an enemy state for a bribe. For the commie Dems, money always talks. Hussein Obama would approve.
.
Newsom, when Mayor of San Fransicko, was aptly referred to as “Any Twosome” Newsom (both monikers courtesy of Michael Savage). He and Garcetti clearly are One World globalist traitors as well as money grubbers. But we see from where Newsom got his ideas to turn California into a dead ghost state a la North Korea.
And Kimberly Guilfoil was married to Newsome, now she’s cavorting with Don Jr. I don’t trust her a BIT!!
Never trusted her. Self centered opportunist.
And she’s clearly not a conservative!!
US Taxpayers give that freaking state billions of dollars and they have yet to thank us for that. Stinking Qatar, Iranian ally, gives them 5 mil they are ready to leak their butts. Something is wrong with this picture. trump should deduct 5 million from California.
Should be 15 million, minimum.
A Three Fold Penalty is usual and customary in these situations.
Correction scumbag garcetti along with newscum are only to ready and willing to lick their behinds – not me or my other Conservative friends – Kali used to be a great place – We got moonbeam/brown to thank for the start of this downward spiral..
The downward spiral started before gov moonbeam. But with gov moonbeam, things seemed to accelerate. I would’ve never thunk someone would make gov moonbeam seem like a moderate but compared to Nuisance, moonbeam at least showed some restraint in certain areas of his policy.
Defund Californication completely, there’s nothing worth saving in this hellhole state — except perhaps some military bases.
Garcetti is a nepotism nightmare’s dream, the wimpy, new-age, bully-victim son of failed LA/OJ Simpson-DA Gil Garcetti. Garcetti is a Zombie Bureaucrat of the kind that only can be elected in a vast globalist city-state like LA, where nobody even knows who the opponents of the establishment’s candidate ARE — or when the election is.
Literally about 50,000 people vote in the mayoral elections — in a city of 6 million.
What a joke… Garcetti, I mean.
What a thug.
This is grim stuff folks. We should expect other 9/11’s, San Bernardinos, Fort Hoods, nightclub massacres, Garland,TX assassination attempts, and Boston Marathon bombings. We should expect more Chattanoogas, and more truck attacks on bicyclists. We should expect more, not fewer, Ilhan Omars and Rashida Tlaibs. We should expect more Washington DC snipers. These are coming. When you seek and/or accept “gifts” from these evildoers, your vigilance declines. You are subtly but no less problematically manipulated. You build in a bias which distorts your watchfulness. Then….seemingly out of nowhere….BOOM! That’s how this “terrorism” plays out.
a straight shooter? You cant hit the side of a barn.
It’s our Own American pro iran faction who feeds this low level refugee .
lesbians and homo antifa are creaming.their levis Just looking at the jihad optics.
Reload pardner. try hittin the barn.

And how much went into Garcetti’s personal offshore muslum bribery slush fund?
Taking money from people who hate you, what a great idea.
This is what we call a B-R-I-B-E.

in related news, the muslim call to prayer will be broadcast throughout the city of los angeles 5-times a day until further notice …
Looks like the Pope is going to have to step up his game. The Muslims will soon own the Churches and turn them into Mosques.
You mean like when Constantinople was renamed?
US Constitution, Article I, Section 10 may be violated by these politicians’ actions.
So,,,,, why is any US mayor, taking a vast fortune from anyone?? Answer, a payment for treason.
California is being led to the slaughter by the Democrat party run by Hollywood, People of California take this as a lesson and save the State. Boycott Hollywood and be the conservative state I was forced to leave. Hollywood is China’s support, they don’t love you they love your attention and money at the box office: NOTE Ted Cruz is trying to help YOU.
