Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) reiterated her efforts to uncover alleged Muslim Brotherhood infiltration of U.S. foreign policy, charging in a guest column in the Minneapolis Star Tribune that “Washington’s political and media establishment fears an honest discussion about the real threat to this country posed by radical Islam.”

It is my duty as a member of Congress to ask why the Obama administration has repeatedly undermined America’s national security and bows to political correctness on issues related to radical Islam. The safety and security of every person in my district, as well as all Americans, is of preeminent importance and concern to me.

The Washington establishment has two choices: It can either remain asleep about the threat of radical Islam, or it can do everything possible to rally the country to a defense and preservation of American values and our way of life. We owe that to the American people.
