(Fox News) Morgan Phillips - The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is reviewing federal security grants for Muslim groups with "alleged terrorist ties." According to a DHS document, 49 projects "with alleged affiliations to terrorist activities" have already been canceled, a move that will save $8 million. "We don't want to be empowering groups that could be causing a threat to our community here in the United States," a DHS official said. The probe follows a report by the Middle East Forum, which claimed that more than $25 million in DHS and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) grants went to "terror-linked groups" between 2013 and 2023. The report flagged a $100,000 grant in 2019 to the Dar al-Hijrah mosque in Virginia, which Customs and Border Protection once described as a "mosque operating as a front for Hamas operatives in the U.S." The report further cited $250,000 awarded to the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), which DHS has accused of having "Hamas ties." Another $750,000 went to mosques in Michigan and Texas that DHS described as "outposts for Iran's revolutionary brand of Shi'a Islamism."2025-08-21 00:00:00Full Article
