Abdul El-Sayed’s mother worked for the Islamic American Relief Agency, associated with the broader Islamic African Relief Agency network, which in October 2004, the U.S. Treasury designated for support Osama bin Laden and other terrorist organizations. His father-in-law was in a leadership role in the Islamic Society of North America, a co-conspirators in the Holy Land Foundation terrorism-financing case. And his sister-in-law was indeed on a terrorist watchlist.
 As a proud Yooper, I have to ask voters in Michigan: have some of you lost your ever-loving minds if you think a Muslim Brotherhood-aligned candidate is the person who should be representing our interests in Congress? My generation fought wars against the very extremist ideology we are now being told to ignore when it becomes politically convenient. Most of my girlfriends who were targeters never had children. Neither did I. We spent our best years in war zones protecting the U.S. homeland. I lost friends. We sacrificed more than most people will ever understand, and we paid a real price. I refuse to watch people pretend none of it mattered. We didn't spend decades fighting terrorism overseas just to have useful idiots back home fall for the same deception. Some things transcend politics. Threats transcend politics. This isn’t a Republican or Democrat argument, protect America, like we did. Yiiiiiikes. If you’re so easily bullied by uneducated nobodies with zero lived experience into voting for one of the worst candidates in a generation, maybe it’s time to take a step back and ask yourself who’s actually doing your thinking for you.
