Chris Christie, who many in the GOP establishment love, has a soft spot for Islam. He appointed a Muslim Brotherhood linked judge to the NJ court. Now he attacks a New York Polce Department program where Islamists where being monitored.
TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie sharply criticized the New York Police Department on Wednesday for not informing federal law enforcement agencies — at least to his knowledge — about their secret surveillance of Muslims in Newark.
Christie has said he doesn’t recall being briefed about the spying in 2007, while he was the state’s top federal prosecutor.
Speaking Wednesday night on Townsquare Media’s “Ask the Governor” radio program, the governor said the Department of Justice’s Joint Terrorism Task Force should have been advised. He questioned whether the NYPD’s secrecy was “born out of arrogance or paranoia.”
Christie is using the pretext of a turf fight with the NYPD. But as we have seen with his actions, one wonders how much Saudi or Muslim Brotherhood money has filled his pockets.
