Head of Nation’s Largest Anti-Muslim Group Visited White House

HeadlineMar 22, 2017

The White House is facing questions and criticism after photos surfaced showing the head of an anti-Muslim hate group visiting the White House Tuesday. Brigitte Gabriel is the head of ACT for America, which the Southern Poverty Law Center says is the nation’s largest grassroots anti-Muslim group, whose mission is to “advance anti-Muslim legislation at the local and federal level while flooding the American public with wild hate speech demonizing Muslims.” In February, Gabriel also posted a photo of herself posing with President Trump at Mar-a-Lago.
