Today, we sent a letter to @SenatorSlotkin calling on her to apologize for hypocritically embracing @billmaher just days after she condemned a Muslim politician for associating with @hasanthehun. Mr. Maher has a long history of unrepentant anti-Arab racism and anti-Muslim bigotry, not to mention the fact that this man literally said the n-word on live television and openly supports a genocide.
Here are just a few of his other greatest hits, which some Democratic politicians apparently consider acceptable discourse:
“Talk to women who’ve ever dated an Arab man. The results are not good.”
"President Obama keeps insisting that ISIS is not Islamic. Well, maybe they don’t practice the Muslim faith in the same way he does.
“The most popular name in the United Kingdom, Great Britain – this was in the news this week – was Mohammed. Am I a racist to feel that I’m alarmed by that? Because I am."
“If vast numbers of Muslims across the world believe – and they do – that humans deserve to die for merely holding a different idea or drawing a cartoon or writing a book or eloping with the wrong person, not only does the Muslim world have something in common with ISIS. It has too much in common with ISIS.”
"And I think that what us 9/11 liberals say is, yes it is about this one religion because it is different."

Even bigger problem: what is @SenatorSlotkin doing on Bill Maher's show? A few days ago, Senator Slotkin condemned a Muslim Democratic politician for associating with @hasanthehun yet she has no problem associating with Maher, a man with a long, clear and indisputable history of anti-Muslim hate. The double-standards that American Muslims face, even from a senator who represents one of our nation's largest Muslim populations, are truly remarkable. If consistency means anything to Senator Slotkin, she should denounce Bill Maher's bigotry and apologize for embracing him.
