Michigan Senate Candidate Abdul El-Sayed
Identified Himself as an Egyptian Citizen
When He Became a Columbia Professor. Now
His Campaign Says He 'Made a Mistake.'

As an assistant professor at Columbia University, Abdul El-Sayed said he held dual U.S.-Egyptian citizenship. El-Sayed is now running for a Michigan Senate seat, and his campaign says that was a mistake—he's not an Egyptian citizen and never has been. El-Sayed was born in Michigan to Egyptian émigrés. He graduated from Columbia's College of Physicians and Surgeons in 2014 and joined Columbia's Mailman School of Public Health the same year. Around that time, El-Sayed published his résumé on an academic networking site. It lists his "citizenships" as "USA, Egypt." El-Sayed's résumé was removed from the site he published it to, Academia, after the Washington Free Beacon sent it to the campaign.

lead war against Trump on ICE shooting
and Maduro arrest 5 replies
The Democratic Socialists of America — for whom New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is a vocal supporter — and a Chinese Communist Party-linked activist network are leading a two-front resistance effort against President Donald Trump, with street protests seeking to blend efforts opposing ICE with the arrest of Venezuelan strongman Nicolás Maduro.
The coordinated organizational effort by the DSA and affiliated protest groups is fueled in large part by funding from CCP-linked wealthy Marxist businessman Neville Singham. That network produced a new slogan over the past few days — “No Wars. No Kings. No ICE.” — which sought to unite far-left protesters in their anti-Trump outrage and to encourage
ROSEVILLE, Minn. — More than one thousand people crammed into a Minnesota church Saturday for “training” in how to deal with ICE in the wake of Renee Nicole Good’s fatal shooting — during which the radical leftist organizer urged participants to annoy the agents like “mosquitoes.”
Program sponsor Monarca trains so-called “upstander legal observers” to follow, track, report, and record Department of Homeland Security officers while they are in the midst of operations, and urged the mostly white, middle-aged and elderly attendees to attend protests with gas masks, sunglasses and phone chargers. “And a pencil,” they said. “In Minnesota, bring a pencil; a pen will freeze.”
Delegate Karen Keys-Gamarra (D) introduced legislation to create a $500 tax on suppressor sales in the state of Virginia.
The bill, HB 207, “Imposes a firearm suppressor tax equal to $500 per retail sale of any firearm suppressor by a dealer in firearms.”
Keys-Gamarra’s bill directs monies from the tax to “be deposited in the general fund.”
A long-standing $200 federal tax on suppressors was wiped out by President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill which took effect January 1, 2026. This means suppressor sales around the nation are now hundred of dollars lower than they were even one month ago. But HB 207 will force Virginians to ante up $500, on top
Tensions in Minnesota reached a boiling point Saturday as Representative Ilhan Omar faced off with agents just four days after 37-year-old mother Renee Nicole Good was shot dead by ICE during a protest.
Omar, 43, was flanked by Representatives Angie Craig and Kelly Morrison outside an ICE detention facility around 9am on Saturday as they attempted to gain access for a tour, but were denied entry, according to Axios.
As the city remains on edge after Good's deadly shooting, the trio arrived at the Whipple Federal Building in St Paul. They were initially let into the facility, before being swiftly led out after 'two officials then got the message' of their arrival,
The wife of Renee Good, Becca Good, has been revealed as an anti-ICE activist and a participant in the Minnesota ICE Watch movement. Renee Good was shot and killed on Wednesday when she rammed an ICE agent with her car in Minnesota. The organization had held an anti-ICE training seminar on January 5, just days before the shooting.
Screenshots obtained by journalist Julie Kelly showed that Becca Good was a follower of the page "MN ICE Watch," an organization that had held seminars just a few days beforehand on how to disrupt ICE agents. "A few days before this incident, 'MN ICE Watch' held virtual seminars on how to disrupt
Federal agents swarmed the home of the ICE officer who fatally shot a woman in Minneapolis this week, removing belongings as the house sits empty and the agent’s family reportedly goes into hiding.
A Special Response Team arrived at Jonathan Ross’s suburban Minneapolis home Friday morning, according to the Daily Mail. Officers wearing masks and balaclavas carried out plastic crates, a computer tower and picture frames before forming a defensive formation around a vehicle that left the garage.
A neighbor told the outlet she saw Ross’s wife pacing in the driveway Wednesday afternoon, hours after the shooting. The house has been empty since then.
A Democratic prosecutor dedicated to helping illegal migrant criminals avoid serious convictions is threatening to throw the book at federal immigration agents.
Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner vowed to arrest and convict any Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent who purportedly commits a crime under his jurisdiction. The comments were made during a Thursday press conference held in reaction to a deadly incident in Minneapolis in which a protester was shot after allegedly attempting to run an ICE agent over with her car. “If any law enforcement agent, any ICE agent is gonna come to Philly to commit crimes, then you can get the F out of here,"

Fraud Scandal 4 replies
Cash payments will be waiting for whistleblowers who provide information related to Minnesota’s unfolding fraud scandal, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Friday.
The announcement of reward money comes as the Trump administration is pursuing wide-scale fraud investigations in Minnesota due to persistent allegations involving money-laundering schemes, pirating of federal human services funds, and other misuse of taxpayer money.
“We know that these rats will turn on each other,” Bessent told Fox News’s The Ingraham Angle on Friday.
“We are going to offer whistleblower payments to anyone who wants to tell us the who, what, when, where, and how this fraud has been done.
Democratic Oregon state Sen. Kayse Jama is audibly incapable of speaking fluent English despite having moved to the U.S. nearly three decades ago.
Jama spoke at a podium in Portland on Thursday, where he, in broken English, condemned Immigration and Customs Enforcement and told them to get out of the city. The state senator moved to the U.S. in 1998, according to his biography.
“This [is] Oregon, we do not need you … you’re not welcome and you need to get the hell out of our community,” Jama spat out.
The Minnesota Fraternal Order of Police (MNFOP) released a statement Thursday with the heading, “FOP stands with ICE.”
The statement said, in part:
The Minnesota Fraternal Order of Police stands with the men and women of law enforcement across this country. Over the last month, while Federal law enforcement has been doing their job in Minnesota, political and community leaders have condemned and vilified them.
The hateful and anti-law enforcement rhetoric by Mayor Frey and other politicians have made their jobs and those of local and state law enforcement more difficult and dangerous. The job of law enforcement is difficult and dangerous enough without the agitation by leaders in our state
A Somali refugee has stepped down from Lewiston, Maine’s City Council just days after being sworn into the seat, after reports revealed that his nonprofit received tens of thousands of dollars from the fund set up to assist people affected by the October 2023 mass shooting in the central Maine city that killed 18.

Donald Trump has ordered his special forces commanders to draw up a plan for the invasion of Greenland - but is being resisted by senior military figures, The Mail on Sunday has learned.

Bill and Hillary Clinton are facing contempt of Congress charges if they don’t appear before a House committee next week to testify in the Jeffrey Epstein investigation.
The couple was originally scheduled to testify before the House Oversight Committee in December but those appearances were moved to January 13 for him and the 14th for her at the request of the couple, who cited a conflict.
But now they haven’t confirmed they will be there next week. And Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), the chairman of the panel, said he’ll slap them with contempt if they don’t show.
President Trump on Friday night called on credit card companies to cap interest rates at 10 percent.
“Please be informed that we will no longer let the American Public be ‘ripped off’ by Credit Card Companies that are charging Interest Rates of 20 to 30%, and even more, which festered unimpeded during the Sleepy Joe Biden Administration. AFFORDABILITY!” the president wrote in a post on Truth Social, using a term he has frequently referred to as a “hoax” pushed by Democrats.
Effective January 20, 2026, I, as President of the United States, am calling for a one year cap on Credit Card Interest Rates of 10%. Coincidentally,

ROSEVILLE, Minn. — More than one thousand people crammed into a Minnesota church Saturday for “training” in how to deal with ICE in the wake of Renee Nicole Good’s fatal shooting — during which the radical leftist organizer urged participants to annoy the agents like “mosquitoes.”

A harrowing eyewitness account from a Venezuelan guard who was on the ground when Operation Absolute Resolve hit — the mission to nab illegitimate then-president Nicolás Maduro — describes an unknown sonic weapon used by the U.S. against his security forces. According to the guard, the sonic blast caused them to experience headaches, disorientation, and vomiting of blood as they were completely incapacitated.
But is this report true? Did we unleash some heretofore unknown powerful weapon that literally floored much of the enemy before any shots were even fired?
In a Saturday social media post, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt seemed to imply that the answer was “yes.”

President Trump’s call for Sen. Susan Collins (R) to be ousted in November tossed a monkey wrench into the high-stakes Maine Senate race, raising further questions about the GOP’s most vulnerable incumbent and whether she will be able to pull off another high-wire act in the blue-leaning state this year.
Frustrations at the White House boiled over on Thursday after Collins and four other Republicans sided with Democrats on a war powers resolution that would block further military action in Venezuela. While Republicans were miffed at the attack on the handful of members,
