Hamtramck Mayor Amer Ghalib has been selected to be the U.S. ambassador to Kuwait, President Donald Trump announced on Friday.
Ghalib endorsed Trump’s presidential campaign in September. The two met in person in September during one of Trump’s campaign visits to Michigan.
Ghalib, an immigrant from Yemen, became the city’s first Muslim mayor when he was elected in 2021. While in office, the city made headlines banning pride flags from being flown on city property, which is something that didn't sit well with some liberal voters in the city.
The city of Hamtramck is known for its large immigrant population. Hamtramck is reportedly the first Muslim-majority city in the United States and also made headlines as the first city with an all-Muslim city council.
Ghalib has been a vocal critic of Israel over its war in Gaza, and the Hamtramck City Council had passed a resolution to divest from Israel and to not support companies associated with the country.

Apparently a Trump supporter. Big increase in his profile.
Dear President Trump, please do not appoint me as ambassador to Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, UAE, or for that matter, any of those $hith0le countries. Thank you.
Very Respectfully,

Not good.
If President Trump is unable or unwilling to neutralize the muzzies, the US will end up in the coming European caliphate.
Should this happen, say adios to civilization as the world enters a new and comprehensive Dark Age from which it will never reemerge.
