'The same accounts that have been pushing these Red-Green narratives are also very involved in elections.'The Abdul El-Sayed dirt keeps PILING UP
Abdul El-Sayed wants to represent Michigan in the U.S. Senate, but BlazeTV hosts Stu Burguiere and Dave Landau believe he’s one of the weaker Democrats running this November — and his latest controversy isn’t helping.
“El-Sayed’s a uniquely bad candidate for the Democrats,” Stu says, noting that the “Republicans have a chance there.”
“You feel like when you’re coming down [to] the closing days of a campaign, you’d rather not be answering questions about your family being on the terrorist watch list and being in the Muslim Brotherhood. It’s suboptimal,” he adds.
“Michigan Democrat confirms sister-in-law’s terror watchlist lawsuit days before Obama campaign appearance,” one headline from Fox News reads.
“He had to fight back against this because people are like, ‘Hey, we were thinking, like, what if U.S. senators didn’t have sisters that were on the terror watch list,’” Stu jokes.
And in a clip of El-Sayed on NBC News’ “Meet the Press,” it’s clear that he didn’t make things much better.
The clip begins with an older clip where a reporter asked El-Sayed if he had any ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, to which he responded “no.” The reporter then asked if his family did, and he responded “no” again.
However, resurfaced tweets from El-Sayed’s half sister are calling that answer into question.
“Had an amazing talk with my mom about her activism in the Muslim Brotherhood during the early 70s while she was in college #respect,” one X post from his half sister reads.
“My family has long been MB, but I’ve always felt that it has navigated the political sphere poorly/destructively,” she wrote in another.
And in another, she wrote, “Praying for all my family that supports the #MB in #Egypt. Lie low, stay safe.”
When another NBC reporter called him out for the contradiction, El-Sayed responded, “And you want to ask me about what was happening in Egypt in 1970? Are you serious?”
“I’m telling you, like, I have no ties,” he added.
“Your mother had no ties?” the reporter pressed.
“I have never had these conversations with my mother. ... You’re using hearsay evidence from a tweet. ... It’s just not serious,” El-Sayed said again.
“You’ve also gone after the president for truthfulness, so when people ask you a question, they all do expect the truth,” the reporter continued.
“Are you insinuating that somehow I was lying?” El-Sayed asked.
“Yes,” Stu answers for the reporter. “And you’re lying again there.”
“And your sister tweeted it. It’s not hearsay,” Dave agrees.
“It’s not hearsay,” Stu adds. “Your freaking sister has said it not just once but multiple times.”

Senior Michigan Democrats make announcement sure to give El-Sayed an ulcer: 'Party loyalty is not blind obedience'
Although they cannot bring themselves to endorse Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers outright, a pair of big names in Michigan Democratic circles have issued a plea to fellow travelers: Do not vote for Rogers' leftist opponent, Abdul El-Sayed.
Lon Johnson, the former chair of the Michigan Democratic Party, and David Kramer, a longtime Democratic strategist who worked on Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's gubernatorial campaign and Sen. Elissa Slotkin's Senate campaign, made their case in an op-ed published on Friday in the Detroit News — an anti-Trump paper that officially endorsed Rogers last month.
'A vote is never owed.'
At the outset, the duo noted that El-Sayed has failed to earn the trust of "loyal Democrats," assuage their fears, and "unite a party whose nomination he won with less than 50% of the vote."
"As a result, we will not vote for Abdul El-Sayed," wrote the duo. "Some may then conclude we, or other loyal Democrats, need to vote for a different party, but for many of us, leaving the ballot blank is an act of dignity."
Johnson and Kramer stated that their "gravest concerns involve El-Sayed's associations with figures who have excused or minimized terrorism, his reluctance to unequivocally condemn dangerous rhetoric, and his support of extreme policies."
El-Sayed is a Muslim Democrat who:
- served on former President Joe Biden's Unity Task Force for Healthcare,
- defended sex-rejection mutilations for children,
- advocated in June 2020 for defunding the police, and
- still advocates today for a tax-raising "Medicare for All" scheme.
Johnson and Kramer took issue with El-Sayed's refusal during his Oct. 8 debate with Rogers to identify "whether Iran or Israel posed the greater threat to America, dismissing the comparison as hypothetical."
El-Sayed said during the debate that "both of them have proven dangerous in their own way."

Johnson and Kramer also expressed concern about whether El-Sayed shares the radicalism exhibited by others in his orbit.
For starters, El-Sayed is the son of Fatten Fathy Elkomy, an Egyptian immigrant who reportedly worked for an Islamic organization that the U.S. Treasury Department labeled a specially designated global terrorist organization in 2004.
The Treasury Department noted at the time of the terror designation that the group, the Islamic African Relief Agency, may have "provided direct financial support" to Osama bin Laden and, by extension, Al-Qaeda and the Taliban.
Elkomy's daughter and El-Sayed's half-sister, Eman Abdelhadi, is a professor at the University of Chicago who was arrested last year for allegedly spitting on an Illinois state trooper outside a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility.
Abdelhadi not only delivered an "October 7 blessing" on the first anniversary of the Hamas terrorist attacks on Israel but has signaled a familial link to the Muslim Brotherhood, though El-Sayed has denied that he and his family have ties to it.
While a man cannot choose the family he is born into, he certainly can choose his friends.
El-Sayed brought Hasan Piker to Michigan to campaign with him on multiple occasions, including on Aug. 3.
Piker is the multimillionaire son of Muslim immigrants from Turkey who:
- stated that "America deserved 9/11" and called for another attack;
- said that he has no patriotism in his heart for America;
- identified the colors of Hezbollah terrorists as his "favorite flag";
- shrugged off sexual violence by Hamas terrorists; and
- told viewers who care about Medicaid fraud to "kill" Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.).
"Leadership is measured not only by what you say, but by what you are willing to confront," wrote Johnson and Kramer, who expressed concern about El-Sayed's relationship with Piker as well as their party's takeover by the Democratic Socialists of America.
The Democratic duo concluded that "legitimate frustration with the political establishment cannot justify surrendering our party to ideological extremism. Winning elections means little if we lose the principles and broad coalition that make governing possible."
"Supporting a candidate is a choice, not an obligation. Party loyalty is not blind obedience. Support must be earned, and a vote is never owed," they added.
El-Sayed's campaign did not respond to a request for comment from Blaze News.
The race for the open Michigan U.S. Senate seat remains neck and neck, according to Blaze News' Poll Watch. El-Sayed has just a 2.7 point advantage over Rogers.
