Republican Congressman Has FullBlown Meltdown Over Halal Restaurant

"Republican Representative Mike Collins is freaking out over a halal restaurant coming to the cafeteria in the House’s Rayburn building.

The skittish conservative complained on X Friday morning about CHA Street Food, a Pakistani restaurant, replacing Steak n Shake this summer, likening it to a religious war from thousands of years ago.

X screenshot Rep. Mike Collins @RepMikeCollins They’re replacing Steak n Shake with a halal restaurant. This is equivalent to the Muslim conquest of Jerusalem in the 7th century. with email screenshot Subject: Administrative: New Eateries Coming to the House Campus this Fall CHA Street Food This northern Virginia local favorite will begin operating in the current Steak n Shake location. Known for the American influenced Asian cuisine, CHA Street Food will serve breakfast, bowls, sandwiches, wraps, a wide array of side,s and specialty drinks. Favorites include their Zinger Burger, Chicken Tikka Roll (or salad), and samosas appetizers. Additionally, CHA Street Food will offer rewards points, online ordering, and bulk-order catering.

If Collins knew anything about cuisines, or even cultures, outside of America, he’d know that Pakistan is thousands of miles away from Jerusalem. His own X post includes a screenshot of an email pointing out that CHA Street Food is actually based out of northern Virginia. Not only that, his beloved Steak n Shake is owned by an Iranian American, Sardar Biglari."
