'Baseless': Cair sues Florida governor for terrorism designation alongside drug cartels
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has sued Florida Governor Ron DeSantis over a law designating it a 'domestic terrorist organization,' arguing the designation is 'baseless' and could shut down its operations. The law, HB 1471, also targets the Muslim Brotherhood and 'antifa,' with DeSantis recommending 90 other groups for similar classification under the new legislation.
