El-Sayed’s Alleged Ties to Muslim Brotherhood Shake up Michigan Senate Race
- Senate Republicans are pouring millions into the Michigan race to attack Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed over alleged ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, which the United States classified as a terrorist organization in 2025 and 2026.
- The scrutiny stems from a 2012 letter signed by El-Sayed and 46 other "leaders of the Egyptian community" that voiced support for then-president Mohamed Morsi and called to "purge the media and the police as quickly as possible."
- Records reviewed by The Washington Free Beacon show at least six men who signed the letter donated at least $25,850 to his campaigns, including Dr. Hesham Gayar, who gave at least $7,000 to the Senate bid.
- During a Wednesday debate against Republican opponent Mike Rogers, El-Sayed dismissed the scrutiny and categorically denied ties to the group, declaring "I love this country" and "I love the Constitution."
- Senator Ted Cruz, during a Tuesday interview on Fox News, warned El-Sayed could endanger covert intelligence assets, arguing there is "every reason to believe" he would share sensitive information with Brotherhood terrorists.
