Hamas-Tied CAIR Gave El-Sayed Over $100,000

The new Michigan Democrat Senate candidate received a large donation from a terrorist front group, which also endorsed him in the primary.

Abdul El-Sayed won the Democrat Senate primary and will face Republican Mike Rogers in a key race in the midterm election. More ominously, between employees and leaders of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), El-Sayed has raised over $115,000. But CAIR is little more than a front group for Islamic jihad, with close ties to Hamas.

Fox News reviewed evidence that resulted in the exposé on El-Sayed, who ironically has made “money out of politics” a rallying cry in his campaign. Then again, Democrats always lie, and Muslims believe lying to infidels for the sake of jihad is praiseworthy (taqiyya), so it is hardly surprising that El-Sayed is a hypocrite.

CAIR’s national Board Chair Manal Fakhoury, national Vice Chair Emad Sabbah, national Board Treasurer Eyas Abdeen, and CAIR-Michigan board member Jukaku Tayeb all donated to El-Sayed. And Tayeb also just happens to be El-Sayed’s father-in-law. Jihad is all the family, it seems.

Tayeb has been one of the largest financial backers of the super PAC supporting El-Sayed’s campaign and is also part of the founding committee of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), a group linked to Hamas and Muslim Brotherhood funding … One donor, CAIR Executive Director Nihad Awad, listed in FEC records under the name Nehad Hammad, drew national condemnation after saying he was “happy” to see Hamas break out of Gaza on Oct. 7, 2023, and arguing Israel “does not have the right to self-defense” as an occupying power.

Fox News also found that members of CAIR chapters in Arizona, California, Texas, Georgia, Illinois, Washington, Minnesota, and Ohio donated to El-Sayed. CAIR publishes a list of candidates it wishes to see win their elections, and its voting guide for the Michigan primary listed El-Sayed as its very first endorsement.

Now We Have Proof the Democrats’ Anti-Trump Lawfare Was Never About the Law

Long before Donald Trump took the oath of office for his second term — heck, before he was even reelected — Democrat state attorneys general were already building the machine designed to stop him.

Records show that at least 22 Democrat attorneys general joined a coalition called the Project for Federal Accountability starting in April 2024, roughly seven months before Trump defeated Kamala Harris. Seven attorneys general signed the agreement on April 28, 2024. Thirteen more joined in May and June.

The pact was called “Privileged & Confidential Common Interest Agreement.” It was built to do exactly what it sounds like: Keep the states’ coordination hidden from the public and from anyone who might dare oppose them in court. The signers said they wanted to pursue their shared legal interests “while avoiding any waiver of the confidentiality of those privileged materials.” Translation: Total secrecy while colluding against a sitting president who hadn’t even taken office yet.

To me, the most significant part of this pact is that Biden was still in the race when the first signatures went on that agreement in April 2024. He wouldn’t drop out for nearly three months. The sitting Democrat president was telling the country he intended to serve another term, the party was acting like he was going to win, all while Democrat attorneys general were already plotting to stop Trump upon his inevitable return to office.

The coalition had already divided up legal research by topic, built a shared “brief bank” of pre-drafted briefs, and pored over the Project 2025 policy blueprint hunting for lawsuit targets. Trump hadn’t signed a bill. He hadn’t issued an executive order. He hadn’t taken any official action as president, because he wasn’t president yet. None of that mattered. The lawsuits were already being written.

Since Trump’s second term began, Democrat attorneys general have sued his administration close to 100 times. California Attorney General Rob Bonta (D-Calif.) has taken part in 82 of those lawsuits. Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser (D-Colo.) has joined at least 75. Washington Attorney General Nick Brown (D-Wash.) has joined 70.

Bonta insists the coalition’s work is “apolitical.” Seriously? He also said, “If (Trump) doesn’t want to get sued, all he has to do is follow the law,” adding, “I don’t think our cases are likely to be dismissed… Trump shows no sign of slowing down, so we will continue to sue him.”

Maryland Attorney General Anthony Brown (D-Md.) claims the early coordination was reasonable preparation once Trump’s nomination looked inevitable, but this confirms that the strategy was always about resistance, not the rule of law.

Even people outside the conservative media world find this strange. Retired Connecticut judge Thomas Moukawsher mocked the coalition’s chosen name: “‘Federal Accountability?’ That’s just a little strange.” 

Former Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff, a Republican who now often votes for Democrats, called the secrecy “not normal at all.”

You think?

Democrat Roy Cooper Lied About Why He Released 4,200 Criminals from Prison

Democrat Senate candidate and former North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper is shifting blame over the reason he released 4,200 convicted criminals from prison during the COVID pandemic. 

In 2021, Cooper and far-left groups announced a settlement agreement releasing a total of 3,500 convicted criminals from state prison. When Cooper’s settlement was announced, prison officials said only convicts with sentences ending in 2021 would be released. That declaration misled a state legislative committee, forcing officials to correct them at the time, indicating violent offenders would be released. 

The list of specific offenders was shielded at the time and only released when it was confirmed that DeCarlos Brown, the man accused of murdering Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska on Charlotte’s light rail system, was on the list.

Cooper has offered numerous excuses for releasing violent criminals from prison. 

When Brown’s history became public, the campaign said it was a “lie,” pointing to Cooper’s “career prosecuting violent criminals and keeping thousands of them behind bars as attorney general, and signing tough on crime laws and stricter pretrial release bail policy as governor and pointed to Cooper’s 40-year tenure in public office.”

He then tried to pin the releases on federal prison releases in the Trump administration. Once that explanation fell apart, Cooper sought to blame prison officials, saying it was their determination of who was released. 

Yet Cooper was the only governor in the country who signed a legally-binding agreement requiring their state to release prisoners. 

What made North Carolina different was Cooper being a willing participant in the releases. States such as Colorado, Illinois, and New Jersey saw judges order inmate releases, but many of those rulings were later blocked or overturned on appeal by those states’ Democrat governors. Cooper voluntarily agreed. 

Among those released from state prisons were drug dealers, rapists, murderers, and child predators.

In Colorado, Gov. Jared Polis resisted similar demands and highlighted that Cooper could have pursued a different legal path instead of settling in the case. While the ACLU ultimately prevailed with a consent decree with the state Department of Corrections, Polis’s opposition and continued litigation avoided a court-mandated quota system.

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker never signed a contract guaranteeing or commanding a large-scale mass release of prisoners, keeping the control over population figures within executive discretion. 

In New Jersey, the state’s legislature passed measures allowing mass releases where Cooper’s team admitted to misleading oversight from the North Carolina General Assembly. 

Nearly half of the criminals Cooper released have gone on to reoffend. These violent offenders were responsible for the murder of 25 North Carolinians and over 600 violent felonies.

Abdul El-Sayed Issues a Disgusting Threat Against His GOP Opponent That Spectacularly Backfires When X Users Discover an Intriguing Irony

Islamo-Marxist Michigan Democrat Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed issued a vile threat against his GOP opponent that promptly blew up in his face after he neglected to mention a very inconvenient fact.

On Wednesday, El-Sayed held a press conference in Detroit, challenging GOP Michigan Senate nominee Mike Rogers to a series of five debates.

Then he made it clear that Rogers would pay a price for his so-called “crimes” against Michiganders.

“I know you’re going to say no because you’re a coward. Five debates. All right?” El-Sayed said.

“You and I both know that you will wither in front of your own crimes, but I’m gonna make sure Michiganders know about them. By the time we’re done, you are not going to have safe quarter from people holding you accountable for what you’ve done,” El-Sayed continued.

The “safe quarter” quip refers to Rogers having a home in Florida, which El-Sayed has relentlessly mocked him for.

So, was El-Sayed threatening to sic his supporters on Rogers, even from out of state? Sure sounds like it.

‘Climate Goals’ Paper Attacking His Constituents’ Livelihoods Comes Back to Haunt Dem Colorado House Candidate

Democrat Manny Rutinel, running for Congress in Colorado’s 8th Congressional District, which accounts for 26% of the state’s beef and cattle output, and with 75% of its 2.5 million acres devoted to farming and raising livestock, is under fire for a resurfaced paper that attacks his constituents’ livelihoods.

The paper, Reducing Animal Agriculture Emissions: The Viability of a Farm Transition Carbon Offset Protocol by Rutinel and Sebastian Quaade, was published in 2022 and suggests that the Paris Agreement’s goals on fossil fuels are not enough and that there should be “ambitious policies that reform our food system.”

“Despite the growing awareness of animal agriculture’s climate impact, climate policy and action have historically focused on electricity and fuel use.”

A description of the paper reads, “Animal agriculture is one of the leading sources of greenhouse gas emissions. Carbon offset markets allow entities to reduce their overall climate impact by financing projects that decrease emissions elsewhere.”

“This Article analyzes the viability of an offset protocol that credits farms for transitioning from raising livestock to growing crops, based on the difference in emissions between these operations.”

“It finds that a livestock-to-plants farm transition project can satisfy all of the criteria for offset protocols, and provides a preliminary methodology to calculate the emission reductions associated with a farm transition.”

“Carbon offset registries, legislative bodies, and administrative agencies may implement these findings to help address the environmental and social harms associated with our current food system.”

STUNNING NEW EVIDENCE Reveals 68 Cities Where Dem-Funded GBI Strategies Sent Over 104 Packages Filled With MI Voter Registrations…Muskegon Was Only Where They Were Caught

Top Michigan media outlets, like the Detroit News and Free Press have done a grave injustice to the country by enabling Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson’s efforts to bury one of the most thoroughly documented investigations into organized election fraud in recent American history. Not only did members of the media downplay the statewide probe into GBI Strategies—launched just one month before the November 2020 election in Michigan—but they made no serious effort to examine or expose the full scope of the scheme or the number of cities and municipalities whose elections may have been compromised by the injection of an unknown volume of fraudulent registrations onto Michigan’s voter rolls.

Prior to the 2020 election, Michigan clerks were furious with Jocelyn Benson for telling them to IGNORE signature matching on absentee envelopes, in violation of election law.  Not only was Jocelyn Benson breaking the law with her “guidance” to the clerks, but at the same time, she was hiding the largest investigation into voter registration fraud in the state’s history from the clerks tasked with ensuring the integrity of the election.

Although the report shows Ann Meisch contacted the Muskegon Police Department on October 16, 2020, we have evidence she appears to have known about the fraudulent voter registratons as early as October 5, when she shared an image on a private Michigan Clerk’s Facebook page we were given access to following our exclusive report on the GBI Strategies/Empower Michigan bombshell investigation.

From Burger King to the Governor’s Office – The Curious Rise of Katie Hobbs

SECTION 1 — THE COLD OPEN

Katie Hobbs says she wants the “Pay-to-Play” investigation over.

There is only one complication: according to Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes, the Governor still has not agreed to sit down and answer investigators’ questions.

The inquiry concerns a politically connected foster-care provider, substantial campaign-related contributions, and a state decision that sharply increased the amount paid to that company only, for housing foster children. Hobbs insists she did not influence the agency’s decision. Mayes says her investigators still have questions.

And Mayes — herself a Democrat — was not subtle:

“You cannot blow off the Attorney General’s Office. Full stop. No one can.”

Hobbs says she looks forward to the investigation’s conclusion. Mayes says the investigation will move forward — with or without the Governor’s cooperation.1

An elected official wanting an inquiry finished while declining to promise an interview may not prove wrongdoing.  But it does produce one irresistible question:

How did a political career that began behind a Burger King counter arrive at a moment when Arizona’s own Attorney General publicly warned the Governor that no one is above answering questions?

To understand that, we must follow the ladder — from its first rung to the Governor’s Office — and examine what climbed alongside Katie Hobbs ascent.

SECTION 2 — WE ARE GETTING AHEAD OF OURSELVES

Before the campaign contributions, state contracts, investigators, and uncomfortable questions, there was a Burger King counter in Tempe.².

Katie Hobbs also worked at Pizza Hut while pursuing her education — a familiar American story of long hours, modest pay, and determination.² It is relatable, memorable, and politically nearly perfect.

The message writes itself: Hobbs understood working families because she had struggled, she knew low-wage workers because she had been one, and she understood vulnerable people because she later chose social work as her profession.³

None of that should be mocked. Honest work is honest work, whether performed behind a desk, inside a shelter, or beside a deep fryer.

But a working-class beginning does not explain a political ascent.

This is not a campaign biography. It is a documented examination of how Katie Hobbs rose, how she exercised power, and what the public record reveals along the way.

Counterterrorism Expert Tells Senate Hearing Michigan Dem Senate Nominee Abdul El-Sayed Has Deep Ties to Muslim Brotherhood Network and Terror-Linked Groups Through Father-in-Law and Emgage

A top counterterrorism expert delivered a bombshell warning Wednesday during a Senate Judiciary subcommittee hearing on the Muslim Brotherhood’s network operating “hidden in plain sight” in America: Michigan Democrat Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed’s candidacy raises serious national security concerns because of his family and organizational connections to Brotherhood-linked groups and figures with terror ties.

Kyle Shideler, Senior Analyst for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism at the Center for Security Policy, testified under questioning that El-Sayed’s rise should alarm Americans.

Just one day after El-Sayed narrowly clinched the Democrat primary over establishment favorite Rep. Haley Stevens, Shideler laid out the web of associations.

Dog-Abusing, Trump-Hating Rep. Shri Thanedar LOSES His Primary to Radical Socialist as Democrat Establishment Gets Humiliated in Michigan

Democratic Socialists/Communists have scored another massive win in Michigan, and this one is actually quite satisfying.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Islamo-Marxist Abdul El-Sayed narrowly defeated the faux moderate Democrat Haley Stevens in the Michigan Democratic Primary for Senator. Stevens was backed by Michigan Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer and Senator Chuck Schumer.

El-Sayed will now face former Rep. Mike Rogers, who ran unopposed in the GOP primary, in the November general election.

Polling showed that El-Sayed would cruise to a massive landslide win, but he will only end up winning by less than one percentage point.

Now, another establishment Democrat, Rep. Shri Thanedar, has just lost his primary to Donavan McKinney, a 34-year-old Democratic socialist state rep.

Like El-Sayed, McKinney was backed by several big-name socialists across America, including Bernie Sanders.

From NBC:

Rep. Shri Thanedar has lost his Democratic primary in Michigan to state Rep. Donavan McKinney, NBC News projects, in a victory for the party’s progressive wing.

The 34-year-old McKinney won the backing of a number of prominent progressives across the state and country and secured the latest victory for the faction mounting an intraparty insurgency against the Democratic establishment.

McKinney, a 34-year-old state lawmaker and democratic socialist, is running on a progressive platform including “Medicare for All” and putting new restrictions on military aid to Israel, while pushing massive investments in sectors like clean energy and housing.

Despite McKinney’s obviously dangerous politics, this is a victory all should celebrate.

First, Thanedar’s own policies are not that different from the far left. He was even aligned with the Democratic Socialists of America before reportedly being expelled by a local chapter in 2023.

Thanedar has also become a sad joke in Democrat circles with his pathetic attempts to impeach President Trump and endless humiliating TV appearances.

But there is a quite sinister side to Thanedar as well: several years ago, this monster allegedly tested drugs on innocent beagles and left them to die.

Thanedar formally owned a pharmaceutical testing lab facility in New Jersey called AniClin Preclinical Services before it was shuttered in 2010. Several reports confirm that 118 lab-tested beagles were rescued from the facility along with dozens of monkeys.

The animals were left behind in horrific conditions.

Here is how USA Today described the scene before the heroic rescue:

Day after day, month after month, year after year, they were confined to plexiglass crates, fed and watered on precise schedules, kept clean. But with no opportunity to leave their solitary little boxes and spend time with others like themselves, with nothing but the most antiseptic contact with humans and no time outside the gleaming, climate-controlled facility, the 118 beagles — lab dogs used to test drugs and chemicals—displayed nothing of the much-acclaimed breed characteristics: joyful, noisy, and curious.

But that’s not all: USDA inspection reports from 2009 showed multiple previous federal violations by Thanedar’s company. Even worse, Thanedar’s legal team also sought to sell the innocent animals to recover corporate debt.

Thanedar got a much-delayed version of karma from a political standpoint. It’s just too bad he won’t be seeing the inside of a cell.

Establishment Democrats Wasted $63.9 Million Trying to Take Down Abdul El-Sayed

Establishment Democrats in Washington spent over $60 million in support of Rep. Haley Stevens’ bid for the Michigan U.S. Senate nomination. It wasn’t enough.

The messy primary pitting their pick, Stevens, against progressives Abdul El-Sayed and Mallory McMorrow (before she abandoned her bid) saw a record amount of outside spending. AdImpact, which tracks campaign advertising, called the 2026 race the most expensive on the Democrat side in history. 

“Stevens (MI-11) has seen a majority of ad support targeting the primary, at $63.9M. In total, 78% of all spending targeting the primary went towards supporting Haley Stevens. Her opponent, El-Sayed has seen $7.5M in ad support. Prior to dropping out, McMorrow saw $9.0M,” said the company in a summary of the race. 

The pro-Israel organization AIPAC spent the most of any group, backing Stevens with more than $30 million in spending over the past year. That funding came via United Democracy Project, doubling the amount it spent to defeat former Democrat Rep. Jamaal Bowman of New York in 2024. 

Stevens’ bid was heavily supported by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY). 

The New York Times wrote in June that Schumer asked party donors to support Stevens, calling her the “strongest candidate” in private conversations and spawned efforts giving her a sizeable edge from big-spending Democrats.
