Townhall Media found El Sayed’s deleted tweets on 9/11. He loved the Green New Deal, which, of course, would destroy Michigan’s economy. He’s a green socialist who was supported by Hassan Piker, a virulent anti-American, an anti-Semitic Islamist communist. He is allegedly 4 points ahead of Mike Rogers. That’s terrifying. How many radical Islamists and communists are in
He also doesn’t think much of black people or white people. All white people are white supremacists to him.
On September 11, 2021, he tweeted, “Today, I mourn the 3000 lives, 6000 injuries, and infrastructural devastation in New York City, perpetrated ignorantly in the name of my faith. Tomorrow I’ll mourn nearly 1 million lives, millions of injuries, and infrastructure devastation in three countries perpetrated ignorantly in the name of my country”. He continued along those lines with several other tweets from 2020 to 2022.

In another tweet, referencing a 2022 New York Times article about Biden trying to split $7 billion in frozen Afghan bank assets between victims’ families and humanitarian aid to Afghanistan, he was against the US as usual. He wrote, “The fact that the U.S. government continues to pit the Afghan people against 9/11 families is appalling. All are victims. All deserve the full share of support they are owed. In another tweet the next day, February 13, 2022, he wrote.
He supports Iran in this war. In this clip, he pretends he thinks about 9/11 every day. It sounds like he is saying America deserved it. Why was he allowed to run for office?
Abdul El-Sayed on his resurfaced 9/11 tweets: “All of us look back and say 9/11 was an awful thing that happened. I think all of us also look back and think about all the wars that were fought and how much safer do we feel like they made us?” pic.twitter.com/oI9TtsFJDn

In an op-ed he penned in 2021, he wrote.
The logic of the post-9/11 era sacrificed our basic collective liberties, most of all against Muslim Americans. A whole new edifice of control, the Department of Homeland Security, was created in order to marshal the full might of a sprawling security state that confused ethnicity and faith for mal-intent. Shining its spotlight harshly on Arabs, South Asians and Africans, it deliberately left the greatest threat to our security in the shadows — missing the most common source of American terrorism, “homegrown” and “radicalized” White men.
We fought 20 years of collective war through which we violated the basic rights of millions of non-combatants to make home, live prosperously and thrive in the places in which they were born. Hundreds of thousands lost their lives. Thousands of U.S. service members and contractors died, too — most of them back home. Among veterans of these wars, death by suicide has been four times as common as death on the battlefield.
Then he attacked us for Native Americans, slaves, Japanese internment…
In an echo of the worst of our history — the decimation of Native Americans, the Transatlantic Slave Trade, Jim Crow segregation, Japanese interment — we did all of that in the name of an America founded on the self-evident truths that “all men are created equal.” Though the past 20 years have obscured their light, those ideals remain as luminescent as they were when they inspired our parents and our parents’ parents to come to these shores.
The “what, exactly?” It’s nothing short of the America of her ideals.
On 9/11 millions of Muslim Americans were called to defend it. Admittedly, at first, we demurred. Our leaders told us this would pass. The best course of action, they said, was to keep our heads down, to “fit in” — change our names, fix our accents and hide our heritage. The patriotic duty was to assent to the implication that we were guilty until proven innocent, to take our collective punishment with a smile for the privilege of playing our part in a war on terror increasingly defined in opposition to our very identities. Only in complicity could we prove that we were more “us” than “them.”
It only got worse, though. The cancer born of a bellicose White supremacy that has stained so much of our history metastasized still.
One serious problem is that he is close friends with Hasan Piker, who said Americans deserved 9/11, and his father-in-law is a key member of the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States.
I survived Islamic terror. I know this when I see it.
Democrat John Fetterman just said it: Michigan’s Senate nominee Abdul El Sayed supports Sharia Law, Iran, and Hamas. He wants to defund the police and stands with a man who said America deserved 9/11.
