Gov. Abigail Spanberger, who once worked in a Hamas-tied school, chose a hardcore leftist Islamist as her lieutenant governor. Spanberger’s lieutenant governor, Ghazala Hashmi, faced a public rebuke from the Jewish Community Federation of Richmond in 2024 after hosting a hearing about anti-Israel protests on college campuses, which she had praised publicly.
Radical Hashmi endorsed the radical Abdul El Sayed, who is running for senator in Michigan. She said they have similar values.
“Dr. El-Sayed and I come from a shared tradition of education and public service, and we both understand the responsibilities that come with a focus on building resilient and healthy communities,” said Hashmi. “My decision to endorse reflects my alignment with Dr. El-Sayed’s stated priorities, including an economy that works for everyone, Medicare for All, affordable housing, clean air, water, and soil protections, and support for labor and the rights of working people.”
The feeling is mutual.
“Lieutenant Governor Hashmi has spent her career breaking barriers and opening doors for others,” said Abdul El-Sayed. “Her leadership has always been about delivering for the people she serves—from lowering costs and expanding access to healthcare to defending reproductive freedom and voting rights. I’m proud to have her support as we fight together to put working people back at the center of our politics.”
El-Sayed wants to abolish ICE and calls Israel’s war a genocide. El Sayed has compared holding back of Sharia to the Trail of Tears He campaigned with Hasan Piker, who despises the USA and said the US deserved 9/11.
Twenty-five years after 184 people died in the 9/11 Pentagon attack, we have Democrats embracing and promoting radical Islamist communists in positions of power.
I’m proud to endorse Michigan’s Dr. @AbdulElSayed for U.S. Senate.

That’s Hashmi on the campaign trail last year, ranting about the U.S. Constitution while standing next to an upside-down American flag to show us how much she cares.
🚨AFTER The Polls tightened in VIRGINIA, the Democrats panicked and released their “October Surprise” smearing Lt. Governor Candidate John Reid.
Unsurprisingly, it’s a bunch of laughably absurd lies.

Hashmi doesn’t think much of Americans.
INSANE: Virginia Democrat Lt. Gov. Nominee Ghazala Hashmi agrees with a professor who literally says “the majority of voters in Virginia are racist.”
“It’s very disturbing…racism is so latent and so much a part of the society.” pic.twitter.com/KtrIemJkp2
