Democrat nominee for the Senate in Michigan, Abdul El-Sayed, in a nationally televised news program, described ‘Medicare for All’ as “…guaranteed health insurance from cradle to the moment you pass away. It comes without premiums or co-pays or deductibles. It guarantees you care when you need it. This is a level of security we have never known in the United States.” This is a slick snake oil salesman trying to convince you that there is a good fairy bringing you utopia for nothing. El-Sayed and many others ignore key important issues. What does it cost, and how do we pay...

Left-wing Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed is being slammed over a resurfaced Columbia University research paper he authored with a “racist and eugenics outcome” that concluded Arab women should only breed with their own kind for optimal health outcomes. El-Sayed — who has repeatedly called himself a physician though he never completed his medical school residency — warned in the 2011 paper published in the “Journal of Immigrant and Minority Health” of the hazards of “interethnic mating” — which he insisted increased the risk of children being born premature.

The mayor of Hamtramck, Michigan, will apparently have to leave office after revised election results gave his opponent a 12-vote lead. Nearly a year after voters cast their ballots in a local mayoral election, a new candidate has taken the lead after 37 disputed ballots were finally counted. Adam Alharbi became the mayor of Hamtramck, a Detroit suburb of about 28,000, after last year’s election results showed him defeating Muhith Mahmood by just 11 votes. But those results did not include 37 absentee ballots that were mistakenly excluded from the initial count. Now, after a prolonged court battle, those ballots...

DSA leaders are working behind the scenes with their endorsed candidates to pressure Jeffries on progressive priorities WASHINGTON—Hakeem Jeffries is closing in on the Speaker’s gavel, but his path to power runs directly through an expanding group of Democratic Socialists who want major policy concessions in exchange for their support.Emerging from primary victories in heavily Democratic districts, a slate of freshman candidates backed by the Democratic Socialists of America is organizing behind the scenes to extract commitments from party leadership to advance far-left priorities. With Democrats favored to win a thin House majority in November, an organized faction could hold...

Michigan Sen. Elissa Slotkin publicly called on Democrats to intimidate young conservatives who want to work for the Trump administration by prosecuting the president’s staffers. Slotkin (D-Mich.), a former CIA analyst, contended that Democrats must “go after” and make examples out of officials in President Trump’s orbit who engage in corruption to send a message to young people who may want to join the administration. “I want young people coming out of school to say, ‘Should I go work for the Trump administration? That sounds fun, I might get an opportunity,’” Slotkin mused at a University of Chicago event last...

DETROIT — Former President Barack Obama’s endorsement of Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed is getting a mixed reception among Black voters in Detroit, with some undecided voters saying the former president's backing isn't enough to win them over. Fox News Digital spoke with more than a dozen Black voters in Detroit, most of whom said they plan to back El-Sayed in November, but several undecided voters said Obama's endorsement had not persuaded them to support the Democrat. The reactions come as Republican Senate nominee Mike Rogers seeks to win over disaffected Democrats, including Black voters in Detroit, a key...

Literally anything can be ‘Islamophobic’ in Green la-la land. By Heydon Prowse, Spiked, October 14, 2026. You know you’re in People’s Front of Judea territory when the GEWs (Greens of England and Wales) decree that the majority of JEWs (Jews Everywhere in the World) are ‘racist[sic]’. Meanwhile, the party’s Muslim Greens grouping recently published a handy guide to what is and isn’t ‘Islamophobic’. It turns out, pretty much everything is! Including, but not limited to, the following: 1) Criticising the Koran The guidance warns against saying that the teachings of the Koran are backwards, because nothing says forward-thinking like a...

Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed has carefully curated a family narrative for the campaign trail that erases his terror group-linked birth mother for his white stepmom — even though he remains close to his “ummi,” The Post can reveal. Biological mom Fatten Elkomy, 66, a psychiatric nurse at New Horizons Community Support Services in Columbia, MO, was born in Alexandria, Egypt, and previously worked for the Islamic American Relief Agency — a designated terrorist organization — according to 2010 federal court documents naming her. While in Egypt in the 1970s, she was an activist with the Muslim Brotherhood —...

Cruz alleged that El-Sayed's purported associations could jeopardize American intelligence operations and military personnel overseas. He emphasized that elected members of Congress don't undergo the traditional executive-branch security clearance process, although access to particular classified information is subject to congressional rules and need-to-know restrictions. Cruz devoted much of the podcast to challenging El-Sayed's recent denial of family connections to the Muslim Brotherhood during an appearance on NBC's "Meet the Press." Asked by moderator Kristen Welker whether he or his family had ties to the organization, El-Sayed said, "No." Cruz disputed that denial, citing social media posts by El-Sayed's half-sister Eman...

Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed has repeatedly described himself as a "physician" on the campaign trail and in public biographies, despite records showing he has never held a medical license in Michigan or New York. Much of El-Sayed’s campaign has focused on his medical credentials, particularly his purported experience as a physician. While El-Sayed does have a medical degree, public records in New York and Michigan examined by Politico indicate that he’s never held a license to practice medicine. New York state law prohibits individuals who lack medical licenses from identifying themselves as "physicians," a title El-Sayed claimed on...

Democratic Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed got into a tense exchange with a reporter on Wednesday as his claim about having no family connections to the Muslim Brotherhood draws scrutiny. On "NBC Nightly News," El-Sayed was pressed about social media posts made by his half-sister Eman Abdelhadi, alleging their mother was an active member of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt during the 1970s after he denied there were any family connections to the controversial Islamist group during an interview with NBC's Kristen Welker on Sunday's "Meet the Press." "Can you just explain it?" anchor Tom Llamas asked after reading some...

The United States is making an unprecedented attempt to revive three shuttered nuclear plants to meet rising energy demand, including from large-scale data centers. No commercial nuclear reactor is known to have resumed generating electricity after beginning the decommissioning process that takes one out of service, though some reactors have restarted after long outages. The Department of Energy is lending as much as $4.4 billion to restart the Palisades Power Plant in Michigan, the Crane Clean Energy Center on Pennsylvania's Three Mile Island and the Duane Arnold Energy Center in Iowa to restore a combined 2.25 gigawatts of electricity, which...

Left-wing Michigan Senate hopeful Abdul El-Sayed is out with an ad featuring a "lifelong Republican" who says he has voted "nine times" for Republican Mike Rogers. The supposed GOP stalwart, Rich Perlberg, is a former newspaper publisher who endorsed John Kerry and Barack Obama for president and has since called for "embracing progressive values" on his Substack page called "White Man's Burden." In the ad, which El-Sayed began airing on YouTube this week, Perlberg, who is identified only as "Rich," says, "I'm a lifelong Republican. I voted for Mike Rogers nine times. Nine times. But years in Washington changed Mike."...

On Sunday’s Meet the Press, Kristen Welker asked the Democratic Senate nominee in Michigan, Abdul El-Sayed, whether he could set the record straight on allegations that his family has ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. When she followed up to confirm that neither he nor his family had any ties to the group, wrote on June 24, 2012, as the Muslim Brotherhood’s Mohamed Morsi was taking power in Egypt, that “my family has long been MB.” The same day, she wrote about an amazing talk with their mother about their mother’s activism in the Muslim Brotherhood during college in the early...

El-Sayed has had a documented, close relationship with his sister—who’s known for her radical views on Islam, sexuality, and gender—for many years ... Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed served as his "queer Muslim" half-sister's legal guardian in a Sharia marriage a decade ago, according to a documentary obtained by the Washington Free Beacon. He performed the sacred duties years after the sister said her family "had long been MB," or Muslim Brotherhood, something El-Sayed denied on Sunday. Coming Around, an obscure documentary released in 2023, follows Eman Abdelhadi as she "weighs the decision to come out to her devout Muslim...

President Donald Trump said Tuesday that black voters would not vote for Michigan Democrat Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed because the candidate mocks and disrespects them. “Why would black people vote for Mohammed El-Sayed when he openly scorns them, mocks them, and disrespects them? THEY WON’T! President DJT,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. Trump’s statement comes as El-Sayed faces complaints from some black voters and community leaders about his outreach ahead of the election against Republican Mike Rogers.

Panamanian authorities have a 1994 bombing’s suspected Iranian-backed Hezbollah mastermind in custody, with a trial ensuing soon. For more than three decades, the mystery of who blew Alas Chiricanas Flight 901 out of the Panama sky, killing all 21 aboard, including 12 top Jewish businessmen and three U.S. citizens, remained unsolved and mostly forgotten by the outside world. The small commuter plane to Panama City exploded July 19, 1994, shortly after takeoff from Colon, leaving only one body in the wreckage, not positively identified for years: a Middle Eastern male thought to have carried the bomb aboard. But now...

Everybody with common sense should vote Republican in November! If you don't believe me, just listen to this.. No Socialist/Communist!! https://x.com/Jessie63335515/status/2107945260034785312?

One key rule in politics is: If you're explaining, you're losing. If you're denying, you're really losing. And if NBC News questions you about your ties to an international terror network on national television, the denial doesn't actually help – even if it's sincere. And in the case of Abdul El-Sayed, this denial is utter nonsense. Kristen Welker posed the question on yesterday's Meet the Press, highlighting just how much of an issue El-Sayed's ties to the Muslim Brotherhood have become in Michigan's Senate race. El-Sayed's terse denial to Welker's repeated and direct queries doesn't exactly settle the matter, either:...

E-Sayed has consistently dodged saying anything negative about the Iranian Islamist regime. Wait a minute: aren’t these people supposed to be all about diversity, equity, inclusion, and tolerance? Guess not: Graphic: Social Media PostA conservative student at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor says he received threats and harassment after questioning Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed about his refusal to directly condemn Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). Iman Dashti, a Persian American student and member of College Republicans, described the threats in an Instagram video following a Sept. 23 town hall confrontation with El-Sayed. “Since that day,...
