There’s a buzz to vote in the Muslim community like never before. Muslims could make the difference in tight races; most voting Democrat. Trump’s open Islamophobia will cost the GOP bigly in Michigan, Wisconsin, Texas, Minnesota & Ohio.

Another Israel-firster detected
CNN: Top Democratic donor and former Haley Stevens campaign chair David Kramer is crossing party lines to vote for @MikeRogersForMI. "I do believe that Mike Rogers is committed to keeping Jews safe in Michigan and in the United States."

This is an example of the Zionist control in media. Everyone on a panel is united for Israel. No pushback, no second opinion — just parroting Israel lobby hasbara.
Watch Democrat Van Jones on CNN blast the ad for Abdul El-Sayed that echos El-Sayed's words that argues that Americans have to set grocery money "aside for killing Palestinians" because of U.S. aid to Israel. Jones: "This is an example of anti-Jewish hate, and it should be taken down immediately. And denounce, and by the way, Abdul should denounce this ad immediately." @ScottJenningsKY adds: "It's economic incoherence wrapped up in anti-Semitism. So it's sort of par for the course. I mean, El-Sayed himself in this campaign has argued we can't have good education in this country because we fund the Iron Dome, which is completely wrong, nuts, economic incoherence. By the way, eggs, like $2.70 a carton, bananas, 40 or 50 cents a pound. It's economic incoherence. It's a lie, but it's all done in service to anti-Semitism. And at the same time, El-Sayed's campaign running ads featuring comments from Tucker Carlson. What is a Jewish Democrat in Michigan supposed to think right now? Why would El-Sayed have to answer these questions? It's a mystery."

How many pure Islamophobia ads directly by Rogers campaign have been made issues? How many has he been asked to disavow? The hypocrisy of the Zionist crowd is palpable. Ignore pure anti Muslim bigotry and demand retraction of anti Israel speech. Former is direct, latter is a stretch. Yet no pushback on direct racism.

In official communications the State Department says the war was started at Israel’s request
So blame Trump my friend. Trump, and only Trump, made the decision to go to war. It’s his stupid, illegal war. Don’t blame Israel.

USA went into the war on Iran for Israel. If you don’t believe us, ask Netanyahu.

I really think everyone needs to pay attention to this cordinated campaign to delegimatize Muslim Americans - not just as citizens but as humans. These increasingly hysterical attacks are a prelude to Republicans bringing us to a very, very dark place after the election.
RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Novel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

I hate this condescending whataboutism. Yes Bret, if the interior minister of Japan was a right-wing religious zealot using US taxpayer money for ethnic cleansing, they would probably be better known.
NYT's Bret Stephens whines that Democrats know "Smotrich and Ben-Gvir" but not "the interior minister of Japan." Their "obsession" with Israel drives him "crazy." (Being politically informed on Israel is now anti-Semitic.)

It’s clear that the number one issue being used against El-Sayed is his faith. Less a referendum on ideology and more a referendum on American tolerance.
New Michigan poll by MSU, by YouGov: ippsr.msu.edu/news/msu-poll-… Benson leads 53.3% to 40.9% for governor. El-Sayed is 48% to 45.5% for Senate. "About 38% of voters say a Muslim candidate would make them less likely to offer support."

Jewish Americans are some of the best of us. In a race where Abdul’s religion is brought up constantly to demonize him, Jewish Michiganders are 3x less likely to find him being Muslim a negative quality.
MSU/YouGov: Only 11% of Jewish likely voters in Michigan hold a negative view towards Muslims. 34% of Michigan likely voters hold a negative view towards Muslims.

Old enough to remember when supporters of the dictatorship mounted a bloody coup (and yes, the administration I was in was wrong to not cut them off for doing so)
I’m late to it but read the big NYT story on El-Sayed & the Muslim Brotherhood and the smoking gun is a letter he signed … calling for Morsi to get rid of supporters of the dictatorship? Am I the only one old enough to remember 2012? Much of Congress felt this way!

Abdul El-Sayed: “Donald Trump decided to come here and talk about backsides. He decided to come here and talk about me. I’m not here to talk about me. I’m here to talk about you. You have a choice between a corporate-backed politician who made millions off his time in public service who wants to do the bidding of the worst president to ever serve in the office in Donald Trump or someone who’s willing to stand for Detrioters since I came here over a decade ago”

Musk’s interview went great: Reporter: What is your thought on the ban of foreign students, you were one of those kids, right? Musk: “I think we want to stick to talking about spaceships.” Reporter: I was told that any topic is good. Musk: “Well no.”

What’s funny about the Haley Stevens clip is that she says he’s not doing enough for Black people in Michigan and then the only Black lady on the panel is like no actually Haley you’re wrong, but that part gets clipped out.
BASH: “You're still fully behind Abdul El-Sayed?” STEVENS: “Look, I'm on the Democratic ticket. I can't say that I agree with everything that's gone on… I'm looking to be on the team to support my next governor Jocelyn Benson, and frankly these great Democrats who are working their tails off, who are going to make Hakeem Jeffries the first black Speaker of the House.” BASH: “You didn't mention Abdul El-Sayed in that last answer.” STEVENS: “Well, look, I would just say, you had asked me if I'm still on the team, I'm on the team.”
