🧠 BLUF
Florida just joined Texas in designating the Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR as foreign terrorist organizations for state purposes, directing agencies to cut privileges and resources from anyone providing them material support. Texas moved first in November; federally, the administration has begun reviewing overseas MB chapters for FTO/SDGT actions. For Christians who reject Islamist movements reshaping America from within, this is the first real state-level posture that treats the MB/CAIR network as hostile infrastructure—not “civil-rights partners.”

📡 CONTEXT — WHAT JUST HAPPENED
Florida EO (Dec 8, 2025)
Declares Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR “foreign terrorist organizations” for state purposes.
Orders agencies to deny privileges/resources to anyone providing material support and to undertake all lawful measures to prevent unlawful activity.
Texas Precedent (Nov 18, 2025)
State designation of MB/CAIR as FTO/TCO equivalents, blocking affiliates from acquiring land and green-lighting heightened enforcement.
Federal Track (late Nov 2025 → )
Initiates review to label specific MB branches abroad for FTO/SDGT designation connected to Hamas and other terror actors.
Where CAIR stands today (federal)
Not federally designated; was listed as an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation Hamas-financing case; designated by UAE in 2014. States are now drawing their own lines.
⚠️ THREAT PROFILE — WHY THIS IS SECURITY, NOT JUST POLITICS
Islamist political infrastructure in the West
The 1991 MB “Explanatory Memorandum” (a U.S. court exhibit) openly outlines “civilizational jihad”—using mosques, schools, charities, and civic orgs to reshape Western society from within.
Terror-finance & legal fronts
The Holy Land Foundation convictions proved that “humanitarian” orgs can launder millions to Hamas.
State-level designations give governors tools to freeze assets, cut contracts, block land purchases, and isolate networks that function as on-ramps or shields for extremist ecosystems.
Narrative & lawfare battles (what’s next)
Expect immediate framing as “Islamophobia” and civil-rights attacks, followed by lawsuits and pressure campaigns to keep CAIR embedded in schools, city offices, and media under “inclusion/anti-hate” branding.
🛠 WHAT THIS CHANGES — PRACTICALLY, INSIDE FLORIDA
State agencies & contracts
Grants, MOUs, advisory roles, and training partnerships with CAIR/MB-linked orgs should be frozen or terminated.
Universities, school districts, and LE training partners risk non-compliance if they maintain ties.
Land & infrastructure (if mirrored from Texas)
Florida can pursue legislative follow-ons to bar land acquisition by designated entities and their front groups.
Law-enforcement posture
Fusion centers and agencies now have political cover to treat MB/CAIR affiliates as potential threat networks while staying fully constitutional.
Courts & challenges
Anticipate lawsuits. The long game is whether Florida’s framework survives and whether other states form a multi-state wall around these structures.
🧍♂️ FOR CHRISTIANS & PATRIOTS — HOW TO RESPOND
Audit partnerships. Churches, schools, and civic groups in Florida should review and sever relationships with CAIR chapters or clearly MB-aligned bodies.
Demand precision, not cowardice. Target documented networks, funding streams, and individuals—not ordinary Muslim neighbors. That’s how you stay biblical and effective.
Prepare for backlash. Have the facts and source docs ready (e.g., MB memo, HLF case) and pair them with Scripture on guarding the flock and loving enemies without surrendering the nation.
Push lawmakers for guardrails. Require open-books audits, beneficial-owner disclosures, and no-public-funding for entities tied to designated networks.
🧠 SDN ANALYSIS — JON WHEATON
Texas and Florida just did what DC wouldn’t: treat the Brotherhood/CAIR ecosystem as the Brotherhood itself described it—an ideological project aimed at replacing our order from the inside. That doesn’t mean collective guilt; it means moral clarity and state power aligned to protect the flock. The fights now move to courts, campuses, and contracts. Hold the line with facts, transparency, and spine—and refuse the narrative that defense of your civilization is hate.
