I worked for Obama twice. I ran for Congress as a Democrat. Now I’m called a traitor for refusing to give every Democrat my vote. I’m raising a Jewish daughter. Her safety matters more to me than party loyalty. If that bothers you, ask yourself why.

Putting aside all the other nasty and disturbing elements of this video, I’m continually stunned by how effortlessly El-Sayed lies. It comes as naturally to him as breathing. He didn’t vote for Kamala Harris in the last presidential primary because she wasn’t running! And Abdul himself was helping the Uncommitted movement organize opposition to the Biden-Harris ticket.
WOW this exchange. @BretBaier tried to give Abdul El-Sayed a chance to finally explain the 2012 letter in support of the Muslim Brotherhood and Abdul awkwardly tries to speak over him. This flailing defensiveness is why we’re on week 3 on this issue.

Keep trying to run Will. You won’t escape accountability. Why did you promote and campaign with a child rapist, why won’t you tell us what you knew and when you knew it.

.@cenkuygur really wants everyone to ignore the evidence they’ve seen with their own eyes and ears. “@AbdulElSayed isn’t a socialist. He just says all the things socialists say, does all the things socialists do, and constantly hangs out with socialists.”
For the press: @AbdulElSayed is not far left, he’s populist left. He’s not DSA, he’s not socialist. He’s patriotic to the point of being corny. And he’s obsessed with ending corruption. This is a different wing of the party, the populist wing. As a populist, I’m all in on Abdul.

How you mind your biz. You don’t live in Michigan and no one needs your lecture. Don’t California our state with your progressive nonsense.
Help get @abdulelsayed elected to the senate! Jewish safety depends on a real multiracial democracy—and Abdul is the one fighting to protect it. Get involved and help at abdulforsenate.com/vote go.abdulforsenate.com We know how much it matters to live in a country where our rights are protected, where the law applies equally to everyone, and where the majority can’t just decide that some people don’t deserve the same freedoms. The safety and freedom we’ve found in America didn’t happen by accident. They exist because of democracy. And protecting democracy means protecting Jewish safety, too. We know what happens when those protections start to break down. When courts are weakened, elections are undermined, and people lose equal protection under the law, minorities are often the first to pay the price. Jews have seen this throughout our history. It’s one of the reasons so many of our families sought refuge in democratic countries. That’s why I find it so alarming to see what’s happening right now. When masked government agents are taking people off the streets and citizens are being shot in public, we should all be worried about where things are headed. As Jews, we know that when a government starts targeting certain groups of people, no one should assume they’re safe from what comes next. Mike Rogers has chosen to align himself with a movement that is willing to attack our democracy. He stood with Trump and refused to accept the results of the 2020 election. And now we’re seeing what happens when a political movement treats the rights and dignity of certain people as disposable. For Jews, these things should set off alarm bells. Jewish safety is tied to the health of our democracy. We can’t protect one without protecting the other. And in this Senate race, Abdul is the candidate who understands that and is willing to fight for it. #abdulelsayed #democracy #jewish #midterms

With Obama tier condescension, Abdul El-Sayed worked his ass off to avoid Charlie LeDuff’s questions about his record as Director of Health for Detroit.

NYT Reporter from Michigan: Lifelong Democrats in the Detroit suburbs say they’re voting for a Republican (Mike Rogers) for the first time. “That’s a big deal. I don’t know of any other marquee race in the country right now where the Republican candidate is converting Democrats”

OMG
BOMBSHELL: Ohio Democratic gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton’s own mother urges voters not to vote for her daughter. “My name is Donna Arthur and I’m Amy Acton’s mother. I worked at Children and Family Service Association, building one of the first two sexual abuse programs in America. I love my daughter, but when I saw her lying about her opponent—and it’s not easy for a mother to say this—but Amy has a serious problem. She is a liar. She lies about her past. She says she grew up living in a tent. None of that is true. She’s lied her entire life. My daughter needs help, and she can’t help you if she needs help herself. People can change, but first they have to tell the truth, and my daughter still isn’t doing that. Don’t vote for people who lie. Don’t let her become your governor. If you think she’ll make your life better, you’re fooling yourself. It will only get worse.” That’s one hell of an October surprise.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
National Review has identified court documentation showing that Cledith Arthur, Donna Arthur's husband, was indicted by a grand jury in 1978 for sexual contact with Acton. NR also found that Donna Arthur pled guilty to theft in 1996 and was accused of animal abuse in 2021. nationalreview.com/news/amy-acton… ujsportal.pacourts.us/Report/CpDocke… smry.ai/www.centredail…

This is a moment for every sane person left in both political parties to recognize the good people on the other team. It’a making me notice which Democrats are brave enough to speak up when it matters even if we disagree on everything else. 🕊️

Hello @NYTimesPR Anyone home? Can you explain why the NYT calls Dr. Ben Carson a Mr. and why you call unlicensed Abdul el-Sayed a Dr? I know you have a style book, but why don’t you follow it?
Great comparison. I’m sure the NYT spokesman will have an explanation. @NYTimesPR Why is brain surgeon Ben Carson a Mr. while unlicensed med school graduate Abdul el-Sayed is a Dr. Do you know something about Dr. Ben Carson your readers don’t know??

As recently as 2023, we had a four-team playoff. Exploding from four to 24 in four years is whiplash-inducing madness, but those selling it aren’t pausing long enough to acknowledge the unsettling impact. They don’t care. Why the runaway expansion? Because there is no such thing as enough in an undisciplined market that refuses to regulate itself.
