The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has made a shocking and dangerous decision by awarding the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a radical group tied to the Muslim Brotherhood, with its “Disability and Multicultural Coalitions Award.” This is not just a case of misguided outreach—this is a federal agency responsible for preventing another 9/11, handing an award to an organization that actively undermines national security through lawfare and relentless lawsuits aimed at dismantling critical security measures.
CAIR, founded by Muslims with ties to Islamic terrorist groups, such as Hamas, operates under the guise of civil rights but is, in fact, a terror-linked group. Their real agenda is to weaken the very institutions that protect Americans from Islamic terrorism. Despite years of CAIR’s efforts to cripple the TSA, Customs and Border Protection (CBP), and the FBI through legal attacks, the TSA has shockingly chosen to honor them. This decision comes while CAIR continues to drag the TSA through the courts, demanding the removal of essential counterterrorism tools like the Terrorist Screening Database, which safeguards against known and suspected terrorists.
CAIR’s relentless use of lawfare—filing lawsuit after lawsuit to defend jihadis and terror sympathizers—demonstrates their dangerous agenda. Most recently, they filed a lawsuit on behalf of Osama Abu Irshaid, a known Hamas sympathizer and leader of American Muslims for Palestine (AMP), who was questioned by TSA after meeting with Hamas leadership. Despite clear ties to terrorism, CAIR continues to shield such individuals, escalating their legal battles against TSA while now being awarded for their efforts.
CAIR’s attempts to dismantle the Terrorist Screening Database—a vital counterterrorism tool—expose the group’s dangerous intentions. Time and again, federal courts have ruled against CAIR, but they continue exploiting America’s legal system to erode national security protections. Their constant lawsuits, funded by tax-free donations, come at a high cost to American taxpayers.
The Biden administration’s failure to distance itself from CAIR, and now honoring them despite their links to Hamas fundraising, is appalling. The FBI and several state law enforcement agencies have blacklisted CAIR due to the grave danger they pose. Yet, the TSA has chosen to ignore these warnings, jeopardizing public safety by aligning with an organization actively working to undermine U.S. counterterrorism measures. […]

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
