- Mike Rogers baselessly accused El-Sayed of ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran; Trump repeatedly called him a jihadist.
- Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud reported more threats in recent months, including through social media and emergency calls.
- Local leaders say Arab and Muslim communities are responding to threats through civic engagement and support for El-Sayed’s campaign.
- Earlier this week, Health Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr falsely claimed Arabs produce no literature or science and win no Nobel Prizes.
“We are an integral part of the fabric of this nation, whether people like it or not.”— Suehaila Amen, a prominent Arab and Muslim advocate in the Detroit area, told Al Jazeera this while rejecting attempts to portray Arab and Muslim communities as foreigners or outsiders.
