‘Abdul’s Senate bid raises red flags’: Witness drops reveal on El-Sayed’s Muslim Brotherhood ‘ties’

A Senate counterterrorism hearing has put Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed’s candidacy under fresh scrutiny. Counterterrorism analyst Kyle Shideler testified that El-Sayed’s bid raises homeland security concerns, citing alleged family ties to Muslim Brotherhood-linked groups and connections to Emgage, a Muslim voter-engagement organization. Senator Ted Cruz questioned Shideler during a Senate Judiciary Subcommittee hearing focused on alleged Muslim Brotherhood threats in the United States.
