Black and Jewish voters are more Democratic than any other groups. We are waving a giant red flag that says El Sayed is not the direction for our party.
If @AbdulElSayed truly means what he says about treating the Jewish community as he would treat his own children, then he would immediately condemn this dangerous ad as outrageously antisemitic and demand that it be taken down.
If not, then he’s full of shit.
BREAKING: 🚨Abdul El-Sayed REFUSES to condemn blatantly antisemitic ad by Hasan Piker’s racist and extremist uncle Cenk Uygur. The ad dangerously targets American Jews. This is so disqualifying. Why won’t @AbdulElSayed@AbdulElSayedHQ condemn this blatantly antisemitic ad?
This type of fearmongering about Israel is wrong. It is not a winning strategy for any state. It does nothing to help Michigan Democrats win up and down the ballot in eight days. Do we need to lower costs by building more homes, securing people’s health care, and creating a fairer federal tax code? Yes, we do!! How we do so is not by blaming the high costs of our goods on the only Jewish homeland in the world. I want to see Democrats succeed at every level, and that means keeping our focus on lowering costs for Michigan families and reining in this out-of-control President.
Blaming Israel for the price of eggs and bananas here. @AbdulElSayed is blaming Israel for the price of eggs and bananas in America. Disgusting, dishonest, and thoroughly antisemitic. That’s who your Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate from Michigan is.👇
Unless Abdul El-Sayed immediately demands that this campaign ad be taken down and unequivocally condemns it and its creators, he will be exposed as a vile, dangerous, and divisive antisemite. Any (of my fellow) Democrats who condemn the disgusting Ramaswamy ad in Ohio but do not condemn this deserve our unflinching contempt.
Cenk Uygur has re-released an anti-Jewish ad supporting Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed.
It's from Uygur's failed 2024 campaign for Democratic presidential nominee. He got 692 votes.
Why does he still think an antisemitic ad blaming Jews for America's problems is a winning strategy?
Haley Stevens would’ve been 10 points ahead. Instead, the DSCC has to send millions of dollars to save a mediocre candidate who is too out of the mainstream to win on his own. In a blue year, this shouldn’t even be a contest. #MISEN
🚨CNN Panelist and Democratic Activist Van Jones SLAMS Abdul El-Sayed for his failure to make bridges in Jewish and Black communities across Michigan and notes that hundreds of Rabbis from across America have condemned Abdul’s extremist rhetoric and extremist associations.
.@HaleyforMI doesn't spin, flack, or regurgitate the talking points, and she isn't afraid of the left; she tells it like it is. Badass. You can still tell the truth and be a loyal Democrat 👏😀
I met Haley Stevens today. I thought she was charming. I'm sure we disagree on much. But I think it's pretty obvious, she'd be putting Michigan away right now if she won the primary.

I don't think i've ever seen a worse, more damaging interview for a candidate. Abdul was condescending, arrogant, dismissive and aloof. If he thinks he can win Republicans like this, he's making a big mistake.
Abdul is his own worse enemy.
Federal Liberal MP Jennifer McKelvie was the deputy mayor of Toronto under Olivia Chow.
After working closely with Chow, McKelvie is endorsing Brad Bradford.
Tells you something.
