Even though the Palestine movement is on the march, we can’t afford any complacency.

Proof yet again:

“Being a US citizen doesn’t make you an American!”. rktman 2026.

Thinking our best interests are not his #1 priority. Palestine statehood?

His name is Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed. Why is the Mohamed being hidden?

Probably for the same reason they hid Barack Hussein Obama.

A country which lets enemy agents enter and take it over from within —- most regrettably doesn’t deserve to survive. And most assuredly won’t.

The price of liberty is eternal vigilance…

“...a watershed moment for the Palestinian movement in the United States...”

And there you go. Silly me, I thought he was running to represent the people of Michigan in the United States Senate. People of Michigan, be wise.

Keep in mind this “movement” began in Berkeley, CA about 40 years ago.
This should tell you all you need to know.

This is all a huge argument for repeal of the 17th Amendment!
The senator represents the state as an institution. The people are represented by the congresscritter through the congressional districts. I seriously doubt the Michigan state legislature would even waste 2 minutes considering this guy!

Repeal the 17th Amendment!
Return the states to their proper role!

Abdul El-Sayed is ‘worried’ about American Data Centers... odd, that’s one of China’s psychops moves against our country.

As they should.

I don't care if the Palestinians have a homeland, but they can't have Israel.

Is there a way to support the Palestinians without enriching Hamas?
