#MichiganSenate# Politico: Abdul El-Sayed reached out to McMorrow directly after she suspended her campaign, and Stevens had not. Reached for comment Sunday evening, a Stevens spokesperson said Stevens texted McMorrow after learning from POLITICO that El-Sayed had already contacted her. Link to article:

Rabbi Moshe Silverstein, an esteemed scholar and rabbi, shares his take on AIPAC being perceived as a “Jewish organization” or “Jewish lobby.”He doesn’t mince words: “AIPAC is NOT a Jewish lobby. AIPAC is NOT a Jewish organization. We are American Jews with NO dual loyalties to Israel. A Jewish organization is only one that follows what Judaism dictates! ”Rabbi Moshe is the patriarch of a large, staunchly anti-Zionist family in Brooklyn, NY.

NYT: Long adept at cable news interviews and creating viral moments online, Ms. McMorrow began to bleed support in public polling after she condemned Dr. El-Sayed for campaigning in March with Hasan Piker, the left-wing streamer who has defended Hamas and called Israel “an apartheid state.” The move backfired quickly. Her remarks helped burnish Dr. El-Sayed’s claim that he was the lone progressive candidate in the race and the one most willing to criticize American funding of the Israeli military. And she won little support from moderate voters as millions of dollars of pro-Stevens advertising poured into the state from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee and other groups. #MichiganSenate#

MICHIGAN SENATE CONTROVERSY: "It wasn’t too many years ago when a number of leading Republican voices walked away from Republican Party saying they just couldn’t stomach Donald Trump and that was widely praised in the media and elsewhere as being an example of people putting country ahead of party. So, along comes this really quite remarkably extreme candidate in El-Sayed, and this long-time Democrat office holder... decides she can’t in the end she couldn't endorse him and endorses a Republican... the stuff in the media about it from some quarters has been absolutely vicious hypocrisy in my view." @brithume

Michigan Senate debate quickly turns acrimonious with Democrat Abdul El-Sayed and former Republican congressman Mike Rogers trading insults, accusations and even comparisons about their mothers

Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed (D) turns and walked away from a reporter who asked why he did not issue a statement marking the third anniversary of the October 7 Hamas attack.
