Hey in case anyone's waffling here. Keep Mike Rogers far, far away from the US Senate.

This is what it means to campaign for all Michiganders. Just an incredibly hard working campaign, for two years.
Me reading all these replies telling me to kms and that I’m an Islamist bitch
Incoming Senator @AbdulElSayed will be one of the most important political figures of my lifetime 🤲🙏🏻

Abdul El-Sayed: “We are being actively bullied by the dumbest people in the room. Donald Trump is an idiot. He has one genius which is getting attention. Because his dad never gave him enough, because he was a nepo baby, he craved attention and used the bullying tactics to get it. But the man is an idiot. Just a fool”

National pundits are openly questioning whether Abdul El-Sayed’s campaign has done enough to win over Black voters, despite polling showing he’s up big among the demographic. These voters aren't buying the narrative El-Sayed will struggle in Detroit. michiganchronicle.com/despit…

NAACP president about the rhetoric being used to target Abdul El-Sayed:
"The blatantly racist attacks surrounding the Michigan Senate race are unacceptable and disgusting. It’s the same ugly, divisive tactics we’ve seen used during the darkest chapters of the South’s history"

This week’s newsletter: I wrote about the GOPs strategy of Islamophobia has been aided by Democrats and the press. And I find the lack of pushback not only immoral but shortsighted.
We either all have a place in democracy or we don’t. And the forces seeking to marginalize their place in the American project will likely expand to others

Abdul El-Sayed hits back at Mike Rogers over the repeated racist attacks invoking the Muslim Brotherhood, calling the tactic "shameful":
"To bring into question my commitment to the Constitution is really beneath you. I am proud of America. I'm proud to be an American. I'm proud of our Constitution that guarantees all of us the right to pray as we choose to pray."

Phone call from a journalist visiting Michigan to do some reporting:
"What is a 'party store'?"
Obviously @KatieZacharia was fired because of the color of her skin. How convenient that trumps EEOC is investigating workplace discrimination against white people - the real issue impacting workers everywhere. Shocking her day in court may come after all 😂

This video captures settlers beating Heidi. They clubbed her, kicked her. Pulled her up off the ground to beat her more. Robbed her of all her equipment. If she didn’t have a helmet—and if she was Palestinian—she could be dead.
