Glad that both my Mayor and Councilmember support @AbdulElSayed for US Senate and did not encourage voters to split that ticket for someone who cares equally less about Michigan as temp WH occupant.

New Abdul El-Sayed campaign signs scattered through this SW Detroit neighborhood make nameless reference to Rep. Haley Stevens and Detroit council member Mary Waters: “Who told you to split your ballot? Somebody who wants Trump in charge.”
My daughter and I, along with her dad, will be going to vote after she leaves work today.
It’s a tradition with us.
We are Black Detroiters and we will be voting the straight ticket for @AbdulElSayed and Democrats across our ballots.

Warnock: Before they cut SNAP—they had the unmitigated audacity, the Speaker of the House and some of his friends, to put their arms around each other and pray a prayer while crushing the poor, bearing false witness against the God of love and justice, making Jesus a victim of identity theft.

BREAKING: Republican Ana Navarro TORCHES Democratic traitor Haley Stevens for endorsing MAGA creep Mike Rogers over Abdul El-Sayed.
There's no coming back from this...
"Look, I know what it's like to break with your party. I did it in 2016 for the first time when I voted for Hillary Clinton instead of voting for Donald Trump. I did it because Donald Trump was out there making fun of disabled people," Navarro said on "The View."
"Donald Trump was out there calling Latinos and immigrants bad hombres and rapists and criminals. Donald Trump was being accused of sexual assault and sexual harassment by multiple, multiple women so I could not bring myself to vote for him. But it was not because I wasn't invited to the party," she said.
"It was not because I felt slighted. It was not because my, you know, frail little ego felt injured because I was not part of the campaign," she continued. "So I just, you know, I've been watching Congresswoman Stevens on TV for like the last 10 days and or two weeks and it's been cringeworthy and painful."
El-Sayed defeated Stevens in the Democratic primary, and she originally agreed to support him, but then last week she began trying to damage his campaign by demanding that he denounce ads that weren't even affiliated with his campaign. She's an Israel First politician and hates that El-Sayed is a fierce critic of the murderous regime in Tel Aviv.
When El-Sayed decided to disinvite her from a public event due to her escalating attacks, it was the last straw for her. She took it personally, endorsed Rogers, and attended a campaign event with him despite previously saying that defeating him was her main priority. In doing so, she revealed that she never really believed in anything. She's an erratic narcissist with more loyalty to a foreign nation than to the people of Michigan.
"She seems to really have been searching for a reason not to support El Sayed," said Navarro. "She wouldn't even pronounce his name in most interviews. But this is, for me, the bottom line..."
"All of this noise, all of this fighting, this is not going to help Michiganders one bit," she continued. "This has nothing to do with the price of gas in Michigan, has nothing to do with the price of groceries in Michigan, the crippling effect that the tariffs against Canada is having."
To El-Sayed's eternal credit, he has remained laser-focused on the policies that matter to Michiganders rather than getting pulled into the muck with Stevens. Every time he's asked about her, he dismisses her as the sore loser she is, and immediately pivots to talking about kitchen table issues.
"So do I understand that this woman is saying that she's there supporting Mike Rogers because in the Democrat side it's anger and lack of kindness?" asked an incredulous Navarro.
"Lady, you're standing next to people who are calling Abdul El-Sayed a jihadist, a terrorist, saying he's going to need a metal detector to go through into the U.S. Senate!" she said. "And, you know, basically saying that all Arabs are worthless and have never won a prize or done anything for civilization. So I don't get the part about — if anger and lack of kindness are my primary motivations — I don't get the part of how you go and stand in a campaign where I have seen nothing but Islamophobia and anger."
"And what I'm going to ask the people of Michigan is to focus on the issues that they care about and tune out the noise," she concluded.
The people of Michigan are going to do EXACTLY that and tomorrow, they'll elect Abdul El-Sayed to the U.S. Senate.
What would you say to Haley Stevens' face if you met her?
Please ❤️ and share if you're rooting for El-Sayed!

I love my Jewish and Muslim neighbors, and I understand the pain and fear they feel, but for me, the most important issue in this election is restoring the Senate as a check on a dangerously corrupt president. That’s why I am supporting Abdul El-Sayed.

Angry Democrats who feel betrayed tell me Haley Stevens’ decision to endorse Mike Rogers only motivates them to push harder for Abdul El-Sayed

The daughter of the late champion boxer Muhammad Ali, and her son, have endorsed Abdul El-Sayed’s runs for the US Senate at church service in Detroit. Khalilah Ali and her son, Jacob Ali-Wertheimer said El-Sayed is part of Muhammad Ali’s legacy.

.@AbdulElSayed: Democracy is about the work we do together. The divide in our politics isn't left vs. right. The divide in our politics is the people who are locked out vs. the people locking them out. I've taken a lot of shots from folks who want to keep the system locked. I hope that I can continue to coalesce and galvanize folks so we can actually get legislation that's befitting of the movement that we're building.

Today, I watched the reaction to Haley Stevens’s interview with Anderson Cooper. Before the interview, after it, across Twitter and Facebook, people were expressing deep concern for her. Debbie Dingell reminded people that Stevens is human. Scott Jennings said she had been mistreated. Stevens herself described Abdul El-Sayed as mean and unkind.
I don’t disagree that she is human. I don’t take pleasure in seeing someone struggle in public. But as I read those posts, I kept wondering where this tenderness had been when Abdul and his family were being attacked.
Where was this empathy when his wife, mother, and father-in-law were pulled into the ugliness? Where was it when a brown Muslim Arab man was described as the aggressor, by a white woman who has vociferously defended the Genocide of the Palestinians, for refusing to give up his moral position on Palestine? Where was it when the attacks on him and his campaign were, in my view, racist and dehumanizing?
The contrast was hard to miss. Stevens was treated as a person deserving concern. Abdul was still trying to bring the conversation back to Michiganders.
I also kept thinking about the people now presenting Stevens as one of the country’s best Democrats, while barely reckoning with the choices she made… including the way her campaign attacked Abdul, and the support she gave to Mike Rogers. Many people online seem more concerned with her distress in this moment than with the harm inflicted on Abdul, his family, his supporters, and the people who saw themselves reflected in his campaign.
And beneath all of it is a deeper disagreement: Abdul would not join the demand to dehumanize Palestinians. He would not treat their lives as disposable so that everyone else could move comfortably through the conversation. That refusal has carried a cost for him and for his family.
Part of me feels sad watching Stevens struggle. Another part of me is exhausted by the familiar pattern: Muslim and Arab people are treated as threats, our anger is called aggression, and our pain is made invisible… until someone else’s pain becomes the story.
I cannot imagine what Abdul and his family are carrying right now. I know what many of us have watched them endure. And I know that what Muslims in America are feeling, painful as it is, cannot compare with the devastation Palestinians have experienced. Still, the scale of that suffering makes it all the more disturbing to see how easily the world turns away from it.
I also cannot ignore the reproductive-rights consequences of Stevens’s choices. Many of the same people now expressing concern for her seem unwilling to face the possibility that her endorsement of Mike Rogers helped put women’s health and rights at greater risk. Concern for one person should not require silence about the consequences of her political decisions.
I want this election cycle to end. I want Abdul to win. And I hope that, when it is over, we will be willing to face what this campaign has revealed about whose pain is recognized, whose dignity is defended, and who is still asked to beg for the right to belong as an American.
I am deeply grateful to the Jewish, Christian, and Black community who have spoken against this dehumanization and stood in solidarity. I hope we continue to show up for one another when either of our communities is under attack.
As we inch closer to D-day, I hope American can relearn that there is no victory in stepping over someone else’s grief.
Neither here, nor in a foreign land.
