Mike Pompeo Sued for Anti-Muslim Bias

Is Trump now gonna tweet that the plaintiff is a LOSER who
should go back to her home country?

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is being sued for religious 
discrimination by a Muslim State Department employee who 
claims her supervisors refused to let her telecommute so she 
could observe Ramadan, and she was then harassed
for making the request. 


In her federal lawsuit, Azza Zaki, who works in the 
State Department division that oversees the Au Pear program, 
claims that following her telecommuting requests she 
was “subjected to ridicule including but not limited to
harassing emails” and “being laughed at during meetings.”


The lawsuit, which as far as this reporter can tell has not been 
reported anywhere else, was quietly filed this June in the United States 
District Court for the District of Columbia Circuit.

It charges illegal discrimination based on religion and

national origin.
