JD Vance attacks Michigan Senate hopeful over claim linking Sharia criticism to white supremacy

JD Vance, the Vice President, pointed to a prior remark by Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, asserting that El-Sayed had suggested criticism of Sharia law was tied to white supremacy. Vance used the example to illustrate what he described as the candidate’s radical stance. In reply, El-Sayed posted on X, challenging Vance’s accusations and alluding to Vance’s family members.

Executive producer Keith Malinak added that El-Sayed had previously made several comments about Vance’s relatives, including references to “Usha” and “brown kids.” The back-and-forth highlighted the contentious nature of the Senate race and the use of cultural issues in political attacks. The segment aired on one outlet's program “Pat Gray Unleashed.”
