Broward Democrats Celebrate Muslim Ramadan, Ignore Christians On Ash Wednesday

A troubling national trend hit Broward yesterday as Democrats failed to recognize the start of the Christian Lenten season while celebrating the beginning of the Muslim Ramadan. The Democrat National Committee posted about Ramadan and even the Chinese New Year but remained silent on Ash Wednesday, the start of the Christian Holy Season. President Donald Trump and The White House made official remarks on Ramadan and Ash Wednesday.

One published report claims just 1.3% of Americans are Muslim.

Locally, some Broward Democrats mimicked their party line.

Democrat State House District 102 candidate Michael Friend made a Ramadan post on social media. “Wishing all celebrating a generous and meaningful Ramadan,” Friend wrote. He made no such wishes to Broward Christians celebrating Ash Wednesday.

Broward School Board Seat 6 candidate Roberto Fernandez conducted Muslim outreach as well. “Sending warm wishes for a calm and meaningful month to everyone observing. May this season bring thoughtful reflection, generous hearts, deep gratitude, and special moments shared with the people you cherish most,” Fernandez wrote.

Fernandez made no wishes to his Christian supporters on Ash Wednesday.

Why do Democrats celebrate Muslim holidays while ignoring Christian holy days?

Attorney General James Uthmeier Warns Coral Springs Commission Over Hosting CAIR/Muslim Conference

James Uthmeier

Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier issued a warning to the Coral Springs Commission about hosting a Muslim conference later this month. In a Friday evening social media post, Uthmeier reminded commissioners that the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) is a “designated terrorist organization.”

Uthmeier wrote:

“Coral Springs should remember that state and local resources cannot be used by any organization affiliated with CAIR, which is a designated terrorist organization.

The city commission is on notice.”

Uthmeier issued the warning after CoralSpringsTalk.com reported how outraged residents asked the Commission not to allow the Florida Muslim Conference to be held on January 30-31.

“Coral Springs, whether by complacency or complicity, has decided to provide the arts center – a tax-funded facility – to this group,” Rabbi Simcha Goldstein told commissioners. “Members of this group include organizations that have been determined to be terrorist organizations,” he said, referencing CAIR.”
