Ex-Staffer Blows Whistle on Michigan U.S. Senate Candidate’s Foreign Policy Views

Ex-Staffer Blows Whistle on Michigan U.S. Senate Candidate’s Foreign Policy Views

A man who is running for a U.S. Senate seat in Michigan has said wild things about foreign policy, according to a new report from the Michigan Enjoyer. 

Jordan Domingue, the lone veteran staffer who had worked for Abdul El-Sayed’s campaign since 2018 until January, warned voters that conversations and observations since then "give credibility to the claims of [El-Sayed’s] antisemitism and pro-Islamist regimes/factions," the Enjoyer reported.

The news follows a campaign call leak obtained by the Washington Free Beacon that El-Sayed wanted to avoid talking publicly about the assassination of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei because "there are a lot of people in Dearborn who are sad...”

Domingue told the Enjoyer that he tried to convince El-Sayed to abandon these positions, but he failed. 

“They turned out to be beliefs,” Domingue told the Enjoyer.

Domingue accused El-Sayed of engaging in “strategic ambiguity,” the Enjoyer reported. 

When a terrorist tried to kill 140 kids in the Temple Jerusalem in West Bloomfield Township, Michigan, on March 12, El-Sayed responded with a generic statement that failed to mention Hamas, Hezbollah, or any other terrorist groups associated with Iran.

Instead, he blamed Israel for the terrorist attack on Temple Israel. 

“Hurt people hurt people,” he said. The terrorist, Ayman Ghazali, attacked the temple after his brother, a Hezbollah commander, was killed in Lebanon by an Israeli strike. 

“Violence is a cycle,” El-Sayed said in the video statement. “Ayman Ghazali lost his family, including two children, in an airstrike in Lebanon last week. They were innocent people. And then, in an evil act of displaced rage, he tried to take it out on innocent children who had nothing to do with the loss of the innocent children he lost, except that they share a faith,” El-Sayed said. 

El-Sayed has appeared in videos with controversial streamer Hasan Piker, who said that “America deserved 9/11.”

Piker has supported Hamas and was suspended from Twitch for “improper handling of terrorist propaganda."

“Antisemitism is now hidden behind calculated rhetoric, spoken by people who disguise themselves as partners of peace between Israel and Palestine,” Domingue told Enjoyer. “Personally, I regret and feel shame for excusing antisemitism and for not leaving sooner.”

Domingue reportedly refused a payout from El-Sayed’s campaign to keep quiet. 

The report said that El-Sayed is close to Amer Zahr, a Dearborn school board member who has defended Hamas and Hezbollah.
