In mid-October, Abdul El-Sayed had a town hall in Michigan eating out of the palm of his hand when he batted away a question over his alleged links to the Muslim Brotherhood: ‘I’m not running to be a Muslim senator’, he said. ‘I’m running for the US Senate, and happen to be Muslim.’
And there you have it. It is outrageously racist to imply a Muslim political candidate has ‘jihadist’ sympathies. But it’s fine – more than fine, it will get you column inches in Vanity Fair – to say a candidate who supports the Jewish homeland embodies ‘violent, chauvinist power’. It is ‘Islamophobic’ to wonder if a Muslim candidate sympathises with jihadi movements. But it’s all good to say a pro-Israel candidate engaged to a Jew is pursuing an ‘odious culture war’ that is ‘tied to a very real war’ that started in the ‘concentration camp’ of Gaza.
Abdul El-Sayed was feeling triumphant as he addressed supporters in Michigan in the early hours of Wednesday.
He had survived an ugly election contest, enduring insults and smears about his religion, then made history as the US’s first Muslim senator.
After that, he was probably entitled to a celebration, but a midterm elections victory speech supposedly meant to thank his supporters seemed to be calculated to rile his enemies instead.
Abdul EL-Sayed openly calls for Sharia Law in America.
Listen to his speech. He even cites the Quran in Arabic.
What have you done, America? https://t.co/2VtRFoeBDc

DETROIT — Democratic Rep. Haley Stevens told a longtime friend Saturday evening that she planned to attend a church service the next day in Detroit with her former rival, Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed. She even texted the friend, a senior Democrat, the church’s address.
The church service, led by Rep. James E. Clyburn (D-South Carolina), one of the country’s most powerful Black lawmakers, was meant to show unity, signal that the acrimony spilling over from a contentious primary had ended and highlight the two campaigning with Black voters, a key voting bloc that backed Stevens in the primary.
A Democrat did the right thing.
Not this one.
🚨🚨 JUST NOW: Deranged Abdul Supporter tackled a Jewish girl (@basedinmalibu) at free speech event.

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump offers Rep. Haley Stevens (D) a spot in the Republican Party, and Speaker Johnson is worried for her safety after she backed Mike Rogers
Wow!
TRUMP: "I’d LOVE to have her. Mike, you talked to her!"
JOHNSON: I sent her a note…I told her how courageous she was…she’s a good person…I encouraged her to stay safe. 🙏🏻
Think about that. A sitting Democrat congresswoman endorses a Republican, and the Speaker of the House feels he has to tell her to stay safe!
BECAUSE THE LEFT IS PSYCHO.
Her own mother says Haley was chased out of a park and called a "Zionist pig" this year
She should leave the party.

Donald Trump has called on voters to send a Muslim Senate candidate “back to where he came from”, despite him having been born and raised in the US.
At a campaign rally in Florida on Friday night, the US president renewed his attacks on Abdul El-Sayed, the far-Left Democratic contestant in Michigan’s Senate race.
“Abdul is not a big fan of Jewish people and he’s not a big fan of black people. And I hope you’re going to vote against him and send him back to where he came from,” Mr Trump told supporters.

“I love America,” Michigan’s U.S. Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed insists. Saturday, he rallied a crowd in Detroit, interjecting “y’all” frequently as he spoke, putting on an African American accent to suit his audience.
All pols claim to love America, but when El-Sayed says it, he’s lying. And that’s only one of his lies.
President Donald Trump recently accused Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul el Sayed of being “on the side of the terrorists.” The accusation triggers fits of indignation from the Left. The Washington Post and other major outlets assured voters “there is no evidence” to claim that el Sayed supports groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood.
Need it be said, the president is prone to lots of hyperbole. But Trump didn’t accuse el Sayed of being a terrorist. He accused el Sayed of siding with terrorists. I’m not sure how anyone can argue otherwise.
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is taking a direct swipe at Muslim extremist candidate Abdul El-Sayed ahead of a critical Michigan race that could decide control of the Senate.
The Democrat doyenne undercut El-Sayed and his Muslim-brotherhood-from-another-motherhood Zohran Mamdani on Donny Deutsch’s On Brand podcast.
Abdul El-Sayed’s father sits on the board of a notorious Islamic charity that was once busted for funneling cash to Saddam Hussein and has been raided by the FBI and the U.S. military. The board also features two current members who belonged to the Muslim Brotherhood, according to documents from federal prosecutors.
El-Sayed’s father, Michigan academic and imam Dr. Mohammed El-Sayed, serves as a board member of the group Life for Relief and Development, which proudly displays his affiliation on its website.
Republican ‘Muslim Brotherhood’ attacks on El-Sayed in Michigan seek to exploit Democratic fault lines
Republican U.S. Senate candidate Mike Rogers and allies including President Donald Trump are escalating their efforts to tie Democratic rival Abdul El-Sayed to the Muslim Brotherhood less than two weeks before the Nov. 3 midterms, with Trump falsely branding him a “jihadist.”
Pollsters and political strategists say the approach is aimed at dissuading Jewish and Black voters in the Detroit area who backed El-Sayed’s primary opponent, Haley Stevens, from getting behind the Democratic nominee in the closing days of the Senate campaign in Michigan.
The CBC’s BJ aside he is Muslim Brotherhood.
Smacks of election interference!
Why do we pay for a blatantly politicized propaganda service?
The late Jimmy Carter had his good qualities – or so, at least, they tell me – but when it came to Judaism and Islam he was easily the most problematic of presidents. It was his fecklessness that caused the Iranian hostage crisis – which, in turn, led to his 1980 landslide loss to Ronald Reagan. During his long post-presidential period, he used his Carter Center – funded largely by Arabs – to interfere inappropriately in world affairs. For decades, he shilled for the Palestinians, smeared the Israelis, promoted international recognition of Hamas, and, in 2015, laid a wreath on Arafat’s grave.
This comment by Charlie Gasparino about Abdul El-Sayed got Gasparino called a ‘racist’ so many times in the comments underneath it that I lost count.
Tom Homan, Donald Trump’s “border czar”, has said that the Republican presidential administration could “of course” strip Democratic congresswoman Ilhan Omar of her citizenship and deport her.
Homan’s comments during a Saturday appearance on Fox News were the first remarks explicitly mentioning denaturalization and deportation in connection with Omar that were attributed by name to a top Trump administration official since federal agents raided the Minnesota US House representative’s home on 12 October.
At a Senate campaign rally in a red-leaning Michigan county this weekend, a young man asked Democrat Abdul El-Sayed if he would disavow the Muslim Brotherhood.
The heated exchange quickly went viral.
“Sure. Yeah, absolutely,” El-Sayed replied. “Why are you asking the question?”
Voter: “Abdul, will you disavow the Muslim Brotherhood?”
Abdul El-Sayed: “I haven’t seen you disavow them.” https://t.co/FLRmRNYelc

On NBC’s “Meet the Press” last Sunday, host Kristen Welker, asked Democratic Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed if he would “set the record straight” on his alleged ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.
“No,” El-Sayed quickly replied, before clarifying that neither he nor his family has any ties to the international Sunni Islamist network.
