El-Sayed’s ‘Queer Muslim’ and Pro-Palestinian Half-Sister Causing Headaches for the Campaign

Eman Abdelhadi, half-sister of Michigan’s Democratic candidate for Senate, Abdul El-Sayed, is a hater.

She hates America. She hates white people. She hates the University of Chicago, where she’s an associate professor in the school’s Department of Comparative Human Development. She hates Democratic moderates. 

She also hates ICE with the virulence of a true believer and the ignorance of a left-wing radical. During protests against ICE performing its lawful function of enforcing immigration law in a suburb of Chicago, she helped instigate a riot and, during the melee, spit on a state trooper and then resisted arrest.

Before her arrest at the ICE riot in July 2025, Abdelhadi made headlines for cursing out her employer at the Socialism 2025 conference. The conference describes itself as bringing thousands of “radical activists from around the country to take part in discussions about social movements, abolition, Marxism, decolonization, working-class history, and the debates and strategies for organizing today.” 

Abdelhadi had some very nasty things to say about the University of Chicago.

“F**k the University of Chicago, it’s evil, you know it’s a colonial landlord. Like, why would I put any of my political energy into this space? I kind of had a little bit of disdain for people who spent their time doing that,” she said.

So why in the wide, wide world of sports is she working there?

“Turns out, I work at one of the biggest employers in the city of Chicago. I work at a place that is a landlord, a healthcare provider, a police force, f**k that s**t, but they are, and a place where I have access to thousands of people that I could potentially organize… actually, this is where I need to build power. That’s possible structural leverage,” she said.

Mkay. So why are you working there?

It gets much weirder. Washington Free Beacon reports Abdelhadi is the author of the “funky, commie, queer novel” Everything for Everyone: An Oral History of the New York Commune alongside her “bestie,” coauthor M.E. O’Brien, a “trans communist” who wrote the 2023 book Family Abolition: Capitalism and the Communizing of Care.

Eeek.

“The novel is a fictionalized ‘oral history’ of ‘sex workers, antifascist militants, and survivors of all stripes’ who band together to create a ‘radically new social order forged in the ashes of capitalist collapse.'”

Mamdani Wanted to Defund Police Until His Wife Wanted NYPD Protection

The dispute began when City Hall spokesperson Dora Pekec said Duwaji’s security detail would join her on a family trip to Syria and Lebanon, “upon the strong recommendation of the NYPD.” That statement gave the impression that an internal protective decision had already been made and that the trip was moving forward with police coverage attached. Hours later, the NYPD publicly undercut that account, saying it does not send officers to countries with Level 4 travel advisories for discretionary reasons and that this was not an investigative trip, so NYPD personnel would not be traveling there for it.

That is the heart of the matter. The two statements do not merely differ in tone; they conflict on the basic operational question of whether officers were actually expected to accompany the mayor’s wife. In coverage of the dispute, reporters described it as a clash between City Hall and the department over whether taxpayer-funded protection would be provided for a private overseas trip. The travel itself was described as beginning in mid-September, and the destinations were Syria and Lebanon, both of which are under U.S. State Department Level 4 “Do Not Travel” advisories.

In practical terms, this kind of episode usually emerges from the gap between a preliminary protective conversation and a formal deployment order. A mayoral office may speak as if an arrangement is settled once a recommendation is received; a police department may still regard the matter as unresolved until assignment and authorization are complete. The public, meanwhile, sees only the announcement and the denial. That is why these episodes so often become fights over credibility rather than administrative sequence.

Mamdani’s later explanation was that the clash stemmed from a miscommunication. He said the trip would proceed without any NYPD detail. That clarification narrows the issue but does not fully reconstruct the chain of events. The public record, as reported, does not show a signed approval, a formal assignment, or a memo indicating exactly who recommended what and when. What it does show is enough to establish that City Hall initially spoke as though protection was in place, and the NYPD then rejected that implication in public.

Somali Daycare Owner with Long List of State Violations Wins DFL Primary for Minnesota House

Abdi Daisane, a Somali-born daycare operator, has won the DFL primary for Minnesota House District 14A, setting up a November showdown in a seat Republicans have held for years.

Abdi Daisane, a St. Cloud childcare-business owner, won Tuesday’s Democratic-Farmer-Labor primary for Minnesota House District 14A with 2,262 votes—62.52% of the total—defeating Paul R. F. Schumacher, who received 1,356 votes. The figures come directly from the Minnesota Secretary of State’s election results.

Daisane will face Republican Mike Conway in the November 3 general election. Conway won the Republican primary with 62.25% of the vote. The open district covers St. Augusta and portions of St. Cloud, Waite Park, and St. Joseph, according to KNSI’s election-night report.

Daisane, 38, was born in Somalia, spent 18 years in Kenya’s Dadaab refugee camp, and resettled in the United States in 2009.

He later moved to St. Cloud, earned degrees from St. Cloud State University, and opened Blooming Kids Child Care Center (licensed capacity 113). He has made expanding childcare funding and assistance a centerpiece of his campaigns.

The problem? His own daycare has a documented history of state violations.

Daisane is listed by Minnesota’s Secretary of State as the chief executive officer and registered agent of Blooming Kids Child Care Center Inc. The company was formed in 2017 and remains active and in good standing, according to the state’s business filing.

Radical Kansas Dem Gubernatorial Nominee Sparks Fury After Her Very Sacrilegious Post About Jesus Christ Resurfaces

The Kansas Democratic Gubernatorial nominee is under fire after a disgusting and extremely sacrilegious post she made about Jesus Christ resurfaced this week.

As The Washington Examiner reported on Wednesday, State Senator Cindy Holscher had an exchange she had with a right-leaning user on X. In it, she criticized Senate Bill 149, legislation introduced that year that sought to restrict drag performances accessible to minors.

The argument occurred back on March 7, 2023.

At one point during the exchange, Holscher outlandishly suggested that Jesus Christ, who Christians regard as the Son of God, could have been either gay or transgender.

“I have no idea if Jesus was trans, gay, straight, etc.” Holscher wrote.

“But you seem to imply that a sacred figure is ‘less than’ if they aren’t straight. That’s too bad,” Holscher added.

She then demanded that the user provide “proof that schools are grooming children,” she added.

Suggesting that Jesus Christ could have been transgender is not only a true slap in the face and mockery of the Christian faith, It’s also the dumbest possible statement because 70% of the Kansas adults identify with the Christian faith.

A candidate obviously cannot win a conservative state like Kansas if they mock Christianity.

Social media users responded with disgust after learning what Holscher said.

New York Governor Kathy Hochul BRAGS About Spending Millions of Tax Dollars on Legal Bills for Illegal Immigrant Children

The New York Post just did a story about how New York’s Democrat Governor Kathy Hochul is spending upwards of $7 million in taxpayer dollars on the legal bills of illegal immigrant youths in the state.

When the Post promoted the story on Twitter/X, Hochul jumped in and bragged about it.

Why is it that every single Democrat is so determined to let the public know that they care more about people in the country illegally than they do about American citizens?

This is the story from the New York Post:

Hochul shells out over $7M to cover legal bills for 1,400 migrant children in NY

Gov. Kathy Hochul announced the Empire State will be shelling out over $7 million to cover the legal bills for more than 1,000 unaccompanied migrant children across New York.

The $7.25 million in funding will cover an estimated 1,400 migrant kids facing removal proceedings, including about 250 in detention, the governor said at a press conference in Manhattan alongside Mayor Zohran Mamdani and state Attorney General Letitia James.

The announcement came after the Trump administration let its contract with a network of about 100 providers working with migrant kids nationwide lapse in July.

“It’s cruel. It’s illegal. And for nearly two decades our federal government required by law that these children be protected when they cross the border,” Hochul railed.

The Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008, passed during President George W. Bush’s tenure, required the US government to provide legal representation for kids in deportation proceedings.

Children caught crossing into the US alone are generally entrusted to the federal government and placed in the care of an adult sponsor, typically a parent, relative or family friend by the Office of Refugee Resettlement.

Mamdani Burns Through New Yorkers’ Goodwill as the Grim Realities of Governance Hit

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is eight months into his term of office, and reality has stepped up and whacked him upside the head.

He had a decent start. After fulfilling a campaign promise to “tax the rich,” Mamdani saw three of his endorsed candidates coast to primary victories. He also presided over a feel-good moment when he joined the celebration of the New York Knicks’ first championship in more than 50 years.

But at some point, Mamdani had to come back to Earth. His anti-Israel rhetoric has become more toxic since the election, leading to a drop in his popularity ratings. He’s insulted the business community by making high-profile public appearances that directly target prominent corporate leaders, such as filming a promotional video outside the Manhattan residence of Citadel CEO Ken Griffin to announce new tax policy proposals. He also stacked the Rent Guidelines Board with allies to enforce rent freezes across roughly one million rent-stabilized apartments, publicly arguing that “landlords are doing just fine” and positioning real estate investors as profit-driven obstacles to affordable housing.

Leaders across real estate and finance have voiced frustration over his rhetoric, with CEOs arguing his messaging paints success as inherently suspect and actively drives investment and corporate headquarters out of the city.   

This week, “a judge swiftly paused a new tax on luxury second homes after a group of residents, including one of Mamdani’s own supporters, filed a lawsuit accusing the city of botching the rollout,” according to the Wall Street Journal.

What possessed Mamdani to post a list of more than 900,000 properties he claims “might” be subject to the new tax, but many more than likely won’t?

Justice Wayne Ozzi questioned why the list needed to be so broad. “I’m sure it caused concern amongst people,” the judge said. “Some may be embarrassed, some may be quizzical.” He also pointed out that the city had made “missteps” and criticized the administration for doing a poor job of vetting before sending out the mail notices. 

His rabid supporters are still “all in” with his socialist agenda. But others are not.

WHOA! 41-Yr-Old Muslim Socialist-Dem Senate Candidate Abdul Mohammed El-Sayed Appears To Suggest Using Violence Against His 63-Yr-Old Republican Opponent Mike Rogers

Ever since the America-hating Dearborn Muslim Abdul Mohammed El-Sayed became the Democratic Party’s Socialist candidate for U.S. Senate, videos have been popping up across X revealing how deeply he hates whites, American history, ICE, law enforcement, the 2nd Amendment, and Capitalism. One of the videos that’s been resurrected and posted by anti-Muslim invasion of America advocate Amy Mek shows a speech that he gave at an event sponsored by CAIR. CAIR has been designated/labeled a terrorist organization by the UAE and certain U.S. state governments, like Texas and Florida.

In a shocking post on X today, 41-year-old Socialist- Democrat U.S. Senate candidate Abdul Mohammed El-Sayed appears to be advocating for violence against his 63-year-old Republican opponent Mike Rogers.

El-Sayed’s thinly veiled threat appeared on X in response to an interview Mike Rogers had with Fox News host Sean Hannity.

In the interview, the Republican candidate for U.S. Senate can be heard stating facts discovered in videos about El-Sayed, Michigan’s most dangerous candidate to ever run for Senate in the state’s history, possibly in the nation’s history.

Mike Rogers told Sean Hannity, “You can almost hear a collective gasp across Michigan for all the things he [El-Sayed] spends time hating on,” adding, “When I go back, I wanna make sure we’re protecting our faith in our families in our factories and our freedoms while he’s advocating doing away with our fireworks, football, the Fourth of July. This guy spent hours hating on what most Michigan would enjoy in their pastimes, and he should be held to account for that. These are views that he held, that he was pretty strong about, but he knew that he had to delete them all, for if people really knew who he was, they wouldn’t vote for him. So you’re right-it’s just a matter of making sure we have the resources and the people that are out there fighting what I think is the heart and soul of the country in this particular race.”

El-Sayed shot back with what sure appears to be a threat on X: “Since you’re too afraid to debate me, how about you “hold me accountable” on a football field instead.” El-Sayed tweeted. “Tackle, no pads like we used to play when we were kids,” the childish phony medical doctor said, warning, “I’d be happy to show you how much I love football.”

OF COURSE: Mamdani Linked Anti-Rent Activist Grew Up as a Child of Wealth and Privilege

An anti-rent activist named Tracy Rosenthal, who has direct connections to the Zohran Mamdani campaign and administration, grew up in a million dollar apartment in Manhattan with her father, a Grammy winning recording artist.

Rosenthal now lives in a $2,300 dollar a month apartment in Brooklyn, but has not paid rent for years. Her previous landlord was foreclosed on, and now the bank is trying to remover her and other tenants for living in the building as squatters.

Meanwhile, Rosenthal makes videos and public appearances where she teaches people how to screw their landlords out of rent.

She is another communist nepo-baby who has lived a life of total wealth and privilege, while pretending to be a working class hero.

The New York Post reports:

A rent-striking, rising-star radical orchestrating the Mamdani administration’s socialist housing agenda is the daughter of a famed music studio owner who recorded rock legends like David Bowie, the Ramones, Blondie, Lou Reed, Sonic Youth, the Foo Fighters and Coldplay, The Post has learned.

While framing herself as a champion of the proletariat, Tracy Rosenthal grew up in a trendy $1.7 million NoMad pad with elite access to the music industry — attending the Grammys at least twice with her dad, four-time winner Steven Rosenthal.

Her father recorded hit albums by some of the world’s biggest artists at the Magic Shop, the SoHo studio he founded in 1988, including Coldplay’s 2008 “Viva la Vida,” which sold more than 10 million copies worldwide; the Foo Fighters’ 2014 “Sonic Highways,” for which he was interviewed in the band’s HBO docuseries; and Bowie’s final album, 2016’s “Blackstar.”

Yet despite her first-class upbringing, she’s been on a four-year “rent strike” since moving back to New York City after a stint in Los Angeles — because the Bolshevik bugged out after spotting a cockroach in her hip $2,300 a month Bed-Stuy apartment…

She said the landlord refused to hire an exterminator, and after finding out the building had more rental units than were legally approved and was facing foreclosure, she organized with the other tenants to eventually stop paying rent, stiffing the owner of at least $108,000 on her unit alone.

In the video below from Stu Smith, Rosenthal talks to an audience about methods for not paying rent:

Tracy Rosenthal’s Strategy: Build Toward a “General Rent Strike” and Create a Crisis Big Enough to Force Concessions

This is one of the more revealing Tracy Rosenthal clips because she is explaining how she thinks the movement can force systemic change.

Asked what mass rent nonpayment would actually look like, Rosenthal describes a “long term strategy” of building enough scale to create the kind of “crisis” necessary to extract major political concessions.

“One way of thinking about abolishing rent is a permanent and general rent strike.”

BUSTED: Turns Out Group Called ‘Republicans for Talarico’ Was a Completely FAKE SCAM

The Gateway Pundit recently reported on a group of supposedly ‘Republican Moms’ who claimed they were crossing over to vote for far left Texas senate candidate James Talarico. It looked very suspect.

Now we are learning that a group called ‘Republicans for Talarico’ is a completely fake scam.

Who could have predicted such a thing?

The Daily Wire reports:

‘Republicans For Talarico’ Exposed As Complete Scam

Leftist outlet MS NOW aired a segment featuring three Texas women who identified themselves as Republicans and vowed to cross over for James Talarico — but records show at least some of them have voted in Democratic primaries and donated to liberal candidates and causes.

Talarico, who has sparked backlash for his fringe views on Christianity, affection for transgender children, and disdain for the American flag, is banking on Republican crossover support to become the first Texas Democrat elected statewide in decades.

“Republicans for Talarico is as real as the six genders that Talarico claims exist, but has yet to explain what they are. This lame rebrand of White Dudes for Kamala is full of lifelong Democrat donors, activists, and other losers,” RNC spokesman Zach Kraft said in a statement to The Daily Wire.

That “rebrand” was put on display earlier this month when MS NOW aired a segment from the political show “Long Play,” featuring three white women from Tarrant County who portrayed themselves as disgruntled conservatives eager to vote for one of the most liberal candidates in Texas to run for federal office. The exchange went viral after Talarico’s campaign seized on the segment, dubbing the women “Republican Moms.”

During the segment, former school board candidate Mindy McClure described herself as a “moderate Republican,” but as the saying goes, follow the money. Federal Election Commission filings show McClure has repeatedly given through ActBlue to Democratic candidates and anti-Trump groups dating back to 2018, including the Lincoln Project and Kamala Harris’ 2024 presidential campaign.

Polls promoted by the liberal media continue to show Talarico ahead in this race, despite the fact that he is an absolute train wreck of a candidate.

The polling for Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan, which showed him winning by double digits was completely wrong. Same goes for Francesca Hong in Wisconsin.

It’s almost like the media and the pollsters are trying to influence races in favor of the far left. Almost.

Democrat Agriculture Secretary Nominee Says Farming ‘Isn’t That Hard,’ Farmers Work ‘Only a Few Weeks’ a Year

Democrat Chris Jones, who is running for Iowa secretary of agriculture, was rebuked by Iowa Republicans after saying farmers are “wealthy,” grain farming is “not that hard,” and farmers are “only working a few weeks out of the year.”

The remarks were highlighted Tuesday by Iowa Field Report, which posted video from a 2021 interview Jones gave at the Iowa Ideas Conference, hosted by the Cedar Rapids Gazette.

“And a lot of this grain farming now, it’s not that hard. They’re only working a few weeks out of the year,” Jones said.

“These farmers might be industrious and they might be ingenious and you know all these other adjectives you want to say about it, but the truth is, you know, a lot of them are millionaires,” Jones continued. “They’re really wealthy guys. They’re making three times as much as the average Iowan, and a lot of this grain farming now-it’s not that hard. They’re only working a few weeks out of the year.”

Iowa Field Report said that earlier in the same interview, Jones claimed Iowa farmers are all “wealthy, older white guys.”

Incumbent Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Mike Naig, whom Jones is seeking to unseat, denounced the remarks.
