Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed is drawing criticism from party leadership and conservative media for his policy views on Israel and his appearance alongside a Nation of Islam figure.

Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed continues to double down on his public associations with antisemites, campaigning Thursday alongside a Nation of Islam "student minister" and acolyte of the antisemitic group's longtime leader, Louis Farrakhan, who has referred to Jews as "termites" and praised Adolf Hitler. Leave it to Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed to turn youth sports into a therapy-couch lecture on grievance, privilege, and mommy issues by attacking Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.
