WASHINGTON — President Trump on Sunday revealed his plans to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a foreign terrorist organization amid recent revelations about the Islamist group’s radicalism and growing influence in the West.
“It will be done in the strongest and most powerful terms,” Trump told Just the News . “Final documents are being drawn.”
The move comes on the heels of advocacy from think tanks and lawmakers in Congress.
Last week, Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott designated both the Muslim Brotherhood and the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) as foreign terrorist organizations in the state.
The designation by the federal government seeks to cut off financing and any other means of support to the targeted group, among other things.
