1/ A thread on my experience in #Detroit after the President's comments tonight. My colleagues and I were at the Central Counting Board around the clock. Poll challengers from both political parties and nonpartisan organizations were present and had full access to the count.

Almost every single day my parents go out for a walk - my mom often wearing her traditional Pakistani clothing and a hijab or dupatta - the one outlet people were given during the pandemic to keep sane is not even safe anymore.

A terrorist attacked a Muslim family for no other reason than the fact that they were Muslim in London ON. The only survivor is a 9yo boy. The rise in Islamophobic attacks are no coincidence at this time. Where is the collective outrage and solidarity?! Prayers for the family ❤️

Michigan lawmaker @AbrahamAiyash called out Board of Canvassers chair Monica Palmer for racism when she didn’t want to certify the election in Detroit.

Now he’s facing Islamophobic attacks, is being doxxed and had to leave his home & hire private security https://t.co/jyQCpwSnOI

Michigan’s State Board of Canvassers are supposed to certify elections Monday - but have certifying elections always been so politically charged? What’s changed this time around? https://t.co/awU6vNCKlz
