Michelle Bachmann is not backing down from accusations she made that the Muslim Brotherhood has infiltrated the federal government via connected members of Congress and high-security departments.
Bachmann said she will "not be silent as this administration appeases our enemies," and she is calling for a full investigation.
Bachmann and five other congressmen sent five separate letters to five separate Inspectors General on June 13, according to PatriotUpdate.com, raising the concerns. Rep. Keith Ellison the only Muslim member of Congress wrote back, asking for evidence of the accusations. On July 18, Bachmann came back with a 16-page response, pointing out what she considered evidence.
In the response, Bachmann, from Minnesota, singled out Huma Abedin a top aide to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for nearly two decades saying her late father, her mother and brother are "connected to Muslim Brotherhood operatives and/or organizations."

OP
Why hasn't she clamored for an investigation of Fox, whose 2nd biggest shareholder (after Darth Murdock) is Muslim?

to define appeasement but I'm kind of afraid at the moronic spew that would result.
She's a real embarrassment to her State and Congress in general. To be the queen fuckwit in the group of fuckwits composing the GOP House is quite the achievement.
