That an Islamist like Abdulraman Mohamed El-Sayed could be elected to the U.S. Senate in any state is a prime example. Islam rejects the separation of Church and State. An Islamist’s loyalty is to Islam, family, and tribe, never a nation. Here are several other quotes from Saad, who hopes to soon become an American citizen:

 

The Democratic Party in the United States has been captured by the parasitic mind virus, with leaders exploiting white guilt and emotional past to maintain power.

 

An unexpected groundswell against wokeness in the Democratic Party signals a potential return to common sense and rejection of suicidal empathy.

 

The Second Amendment in the US serves as a powerful deterrent against the rise of totalitarianism and suicidal empathy.

EXCERPT:

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul has a considerable financial advantage over Republican Bruce Blakeman. Apparently, Democrats would like a little more insurance.

A Democratic Governors Association-backed super PAC has collected $4.34 million for the final weeks of the governor’s reelection campaign. Greater Empire State reported the contributions between late July and October 2, then rolled out two ads Saturday targeting Blakeman over his support for President Donald Trump.

Three donors accounted for $3 million. Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg gave $1 million, as did the Greater New York Hospital Association Management Corp. Another million came from Leadership for New York, a super PAC headed by Jay Martin, formerly of the New York Apartment Association.

The Sports Betting Alliance and Hess Corporation CEO John Hess also contributed.

Not bad for an incumbent whose supporters insist the election is well in hand.

TOLEDO, Ohio — House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries said Sunday the election climate is holding firm for Democrats as he campaigned for Rep. Marcy Kaptur in a heavily contested Ohio congressional district that is crucial for majority control of the House.

Jeffries also slapped back at President Donald Trump’s abrupt decision to waive sanctions on Russia and said there will be a bipartisan effort in the House to pursue a new sanctions package that the president would not have the ability to waive.

“It’s shocking, but not surprising, that an American president would do so much to undermine the cause of democracy, freedom and dignity for the Ukrainian people,” Jeffries told The Associated Press after visiting church services in Toledo.

Jeffries, who is in line to become House speaker if Democrats win back the majority, has traveled to some 50 cities campaigning for Democratic candidates. He said the House Republicans are “divorced from reality” in thinking — as Speaker Mike Johnson recently suggested — that the Nov. 3 election will be a repeat of the 2024 sweep that put Trump in the White House and Republicans in Congress.

“It is a basic principle of American democracy that the government can’t selectively target individuals simply because of their political beliefs or what they say.”

Former President Barack Obama once again inserted himself into the wrong side of a legal discussion after chiming in to defend Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar.

Obama — who was sharply criticized during his presidency for meddling in cases such as the Trayvon Martin murder trial and the arrest of Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates — was brutally ratioed on X with Community Notes pointing out the many errors in his screed.

“Congresswoman Omar came to this country with her father when she was 12 years old. Five years later, her father became a naturalized citizen. If Ilhan had been 18 at the time, she would have had to apply for citizenship separately. But because she was 17, she became a naturalized citizen automatically,” Obama claimed.

However, notes citing the New York Post and Washington Post both noted that there was no documentation showing that Omar’s father ever was naturalized.

Down the homestretch of the campaign, Republican Mike Rogers is laser-focused on hammering home the point that DSA-backed Democrat Abdul El-Sayed is unfit to represent Michigan in the United States Senate because his loyalties are with America’s enemies.

It’s something the GOP Senate nominee has done on the campaign trail, at debates, on social media, and in interviews as part of a comprehensive effort to outline the stark differences between himself and El-Sayed so Michigan voters can be better informed before they head to the polls.

On Sunday, Rogers did an interview with CNN State of the Union co-anchor Dana Bash, where they talked about the Senate race, foreign policy, and the economy. But along the way, Bash let her TDS shine through when she kept pressing Rogers on whether he agreed with President Trump’s assessment that El-Sayed was a “terrorist.” Rogers smartly did not take the bait, and instead pointed to why people might feel that way about the Democrat nominee:

Listen, I have never called him a terrorist. I wore the uniform in the United States of America, so people can pray any way they want. That is not the issue here.

JACKSON, Mississippi — Raphael Warnock is racing to get Democrat Scott Colom elected in deep-red Mississippi. It’s part of his bigger bet on the South.

Colom, a charismatic local prosecutor, is within striking distance in the polls of unseating Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith. And in the absence of more dedicated resources, Warnock himself is trying to fill the gap by directing money and donors to the race.

He has raised over $500,000 directly into Colom’s campaign committee, according to a person with direct knowledge of his efforts, granted anonymity to share private details. And, over the course of four separate fundraisers, has tried to steer Senate Democrats’ top donors to the race.

In April, he told attendees at a Democratic donor breakfast that he thinks the party is “sleeping on” the Mississippi contest, prompting surprised laughter from the crowd, according to a recording of the event obtained by POLITICO.

“I’m going to ask you to resist the Democratic tendency to ignore the South,” he told the assembled donors. “And for our own sake, for the sake of us having a possibility of winning over time, I think we can win in Mississippi if the conditions are just right.”

Watch as Bash attempts to shame Rogers into condemning President Trump over his rhetoric regarding Abdul El-Sayed, and her constant redirections back on to Trump when Rogers brings up a series of inconvenient facts:

DANA BASH: Congressman, to I do want to move on to something else. I want to play what President Trump said about Abdul El-Sayed at a rally Friday night.

California’s Democrat leaders are outraged after the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) ordered the state to block votes being cast by noncitizens in upcoming elections.

The DOJ is seeking an emergency injunction against California after state officials rejected its demand to segregate ballots associated with approximately 20,000 registered voters that federal authorities have identified as “likely noncitizens.”

Attorney General Todd Blanche says the action aims to prevent noncitizens from voting in the upcoming election, pointing to California’s practice of automatically mailing ballots to every active registered voter.

California’s leaders are attacking the lawsuit, with Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom accusing the Trump administration of voter suppression and state election officials disputing the reliability of the federal findings.

With just over two weeks left until election day, Democrats can barely contain their glee.

Control of the House seems about to fall into their eager laps. Senate races in states that are normally cardinal red — Alaska, Iowa, Kansas and Texas among them — have grown fiercely competitive.

And, for the first time since 2010, a Democrat may soon be sitting in the governor’s office in more than half the 50 states. As recently as 2017, just 16 of them had Democratic governors — the lowest number in nearly a century.

The party owes a big thank you to President Trump, whose political standing seems to be sinking, like a depth charge, lower by the day. The only question is how much damage he inflicts on fellow Republicans.

Voter enthusiasm surveys are showing signs of a gathering “Silver Wave” of older voters surging to the polls on November 3 for the 2026 midterm elections and voting in greater numbers for Republican candidates than they have in recent years, according to GOP pollster and campaign strategist Matt Towery.

Combined with the traditional huge drop-off in the number of younger voters aged 18 to 39 in midterm contests, who are among the Democratic Party’s most loyal supporters, the Silver Wave could mean a bunch of Democratic congressional candidates now making relocation plans to the nation’s capital after the election could be in for an unexpected surprise.

And, according to Towery, a key factor in bringing that outcome about would be the explosion of media coverage and enthusiasm among young people for candidates who, like New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D), identify themselves as socialists or those like Claire Valdez, who is running in New York’s 7th Congressional District, as members of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA).

A former friend of James Talarico is accusing the Texas Democratic Senate candidate of betraying his own political allies to advance his career, resurfacing a nearly 18-year-old dispute that he claims exposes the lawmaker’s true character.

Garcia claimed Talarico, then president of the University Democrats, abruptly abandoned the initiative to win favor with university administrators before landing a prominent student government position the following year.

“I’ve known @jamestalarico for nearly 20 years. When we were at @UTAustin in 2009, he ran the University Democrats and I ran the College Republicans. Although we disagreed, I once considered him a friend. But then he betrayed the entire student body for his own political gain,” Garcia wrote on X.

Debate preparation is generally considered a good thing. But when you’re running for the United States Senate, voters probably expect you to be able to discuss your own record without constantly consulting a cheat sheet.

Former Alaska Democratic Rep. Mary Peltola learned that lesson the hard way Thursday night when her apparent reliance on cue cards during a debate with Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan became a story of its own.

And Sullivan wasn’t about to let the opportunity pass.

The two candidates squared off in a closely watched debate as Republicans fight to defend their narrow Senate majority. But while the discussion covered serious issues, including Alaska’s fishing industry, energy development, and allegations involving Peltola’s treatment of congressional staffers, it was the Democrat’s repeated glances at her notes that attracted some of the biggest reactions online.

At one point, Sullivan interrupted to ask the moderators a rather pointed question.

It started with the Abdul El-Sayed and Mike Rogers Michigan US Senate debate, where Rogers was solely interested in making the election about El-Sayed and trying to plant the idea in the minds of voters that the Democratic candidate is a terrorist.

Rogers hasn’t held town halls or the sort of big events that one would expect in one of the most high-profile Senate contests in the country. Rogers has barely held any sizable events at all. Republicans are calling this strategy “low-key,” but it is better described as invisible in a year when Republicans are unpopular and facing a bloodbath.

In contrast, NBC News reported, “El-Sayed’s campaign touted his willingness to engage directly with voters at his events, saying he has taken voter questions at 46 events following the August primary, 19 of which it described as large-scale town halls. Those questions, the campaign said, are not screened.”

Instead, the Rogers plan is to lay low and make the campaign all about smearing El-Sayed with suggestions that he is a terrorist. El-Sayed is campaigning on affordability and a better healthcare system, but Republicans are trying to paint him as a Muslim extremist.

JD Vance came to Monroe, MI, and tried to attack El-Sayed by suggesting that he is not an American.

Blue States Show What’s at Stake in the 2026 Elections

pgnewser October 16, 2026 0

While polls continue to show Democrats to be the favorites to win the midterm elections, blue states are showing what progressive rule looks like. Religious liberty is being interpreted in blue states as only being a freedom to worship, not a freedom to outwardly, publicly live out your faith.

From Illinois to New York to California, laws are being passed that are forcing people of faith to participate in abortions, euthanasia, and affirm LGBTQ lifestyles. While “affordability” still appears to be the top issue in this election, “government trust” is a rising issue.

Blue States Are Redefining Religious Freedom– thefederalist.com

EXCERPT:

A dangerous theory is taking hold that religious freedom applies only to the right to worship.

Illinois’ assisted suicide law took effect in September. Cardinal Blase Cupich and Bishop Thomas Paprocki have both sued to keep the state from compelling Catholic hospitals and doctors to take part. A group of Muslim doctors similarly have sought protection from the state mandate. The state has yielded temporarily. In July, a federal judge shielded the Little Sisters of the Poor from New York’s version. The message from the state in each case is the same: you may care for the dying, but you must also be ready to help kill them.

The Supreme Court will hear oral argument on Nov. 3 in St. Mary Catholic Parish v. Roy. Colorado’s universal preschool program requires participating schools to agree to operate at odds with Catholic teaching on marriage and sexuality. Parishes in the archdiocese of Denver could not agree to state requirements, so the state shut them out of the preschool program paying $6,000 per eligible child, along with the families who wanted their children taught there. Colorado says it has no problem with the preschools being Catholic, it just doesn’t want them to operate as if they are.

Catholicism is just one example of a religion whose exercise does not end at the sanctuary door. Catholics pray at Mass and live that prayer in the works of mercy: feeding the hungry, sheltering the homeless, visiting the sick, burying the dead, and instructing the ignorant. Faith asks to be lived coherently, in belief and in service to one another. Jews, Muslims, and Protestants would recognize the pattern in their own traditions. No one is free if he must split himself into a Sunday self and a Monday self, and no community is free that must do the same.

Nothing that comes out of any of the institutions hijacked by the left have any credibility anymore.

For a recent exhibit in polling gone bad:

In the Michigan primary, the polling had El-Sayed up by 13 points. He won by 1 point (GelliotMorris). Rob Crilly at the Washington Examiner: In 2024, a rash of cheap online polls skewed forecasts, underestimating Donald Trump’s eventual margin of victory. This time around, a handful of pollsters have spotted another possible error in a type of survey that finds participants by sending out SMS messages, called text-to-web polling. They say it is returning a disproportionate number of disenchanted Trump voters who have switched sides. And it could mean that forecasts predicting a blue tidal wave, such as Nate Silver’s much-quoted model, with Democrats’ chances of winning the Senate at over 73%, are overestimating their chances…. The phenomenon was first spotted by James Johnson, co-founder of J.L. Partners, another Republican leaning firm. He ran an experiment to quantify what he was seeing with a poll in Iowa. Online polling showed Democrats ahead by a single point. Live call polling also had Democrats ahead by a single point. Yet the SMS-to-web portion showed Democrats up by 12 points (Washington Examiner).

Democrats have their agenda for the first 100 days if they take power in Congress, as is expected.

On the legislative side, this is pretty much it. President Donald Trump will veto everything, but it doesn’t matter. Democrats need to show that they are focused on lowering prices. Trump’s Iran war and tariffs have added to massive inflationary pressure on the economy, and healthcare is a key concern for just about everyone.

And don’t worry, investigations are part of the agenda. As the AP wrote, “Jeffries has tasked the ranking Democrats on the House Oversight and Judiciary committees with preparing investigations. They are focused on Trump, his family and his administration, as part of a sweeping anti-corruption agenda. Impeachment, Jeffries has said, is neither on nor off the table.”

EXCERPT:

U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico (D-Texas) stumbled through a 90-minute CNN townhall Wednesday night, desperately dissembling about his radical left-wing record.

The Democrat posed as a moderate on issues like abortion, border security, and Texas energy as he faced questions from Democrat, Republican, and independent voters. At one point, he admitted he was just being “provocative” when he said God was transgender to justify child mutilation.

Talarico tried to claim he’s a big supporter of oil and gas, despite proposing a climate bill in 2021 that would have crushed the oil and gas industry.

“I’m campaigning on an ‘all the above’ energy strategy that includes oil and gas, he said. “I want to protect the good-paying oil and gas jobs that support whole families across the state and I want us to invest in the energy sources of the future.”

The Texas Climate Action Act, dubbed the “Texas’ Green New Deal,” would have mandated steep cuts to greenhouse gas emissions statewide, wiping out energy jobs in the state. The bill set statewide goals to cut emissions to 50 percent below 1990 levels by 2030, with further reduction goals by 2050. Critics said it would have eliminated up to two million Texas jobs.

Now posing as a border hawk, Talarico claimed in a “stunning” ad released this week “I called out Joe Biden for failing us on the border.”

However, despite being asked repeatedly, he was unable to provide a single instance where he criticized Biden’s open border policies during his presidency. In fact, in 2023, Talarico voted against border-security bill HR712, which appropriated $5.1 billion for border security operations, including $1.5 billion for border-barrier infrastructure.

U.S. Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA) torched his Democratic Party opponent, former local news anchor Janelle Stelson, after she attempted to blame the Republican Party for high gas prices.

Stelson linked higher gasoline and diesel prices in Pennsylvania to the ongoing U.S. conflict with Iran, noting that Perry had voted multiple times to continue the war. She stated that ending the war would be among her first priorities in Congress if elected, citing effects on family farmers who face elevated diesel costs for harvest operations that cannot be delayed.

When asked specifically about steps to lower prices, Perry responded with a focus on domestic policy rather than the war. “One of the reasons that gas prices are high, and have been high, regardless of what happens in Iran, is because of policy,” the congressman stated.

“We actually turn food into fuel in the United States. You spend about 30 cents more per gallon to do that, and your car is less deficient because of that. It’s called the Renewable Fuel Standard, and I’ve been fighting to end that, because we don’t need to pay that extra 30 cents or have less efficiency,” he continued.

“The United States not only must pump enough oil and gas to support itself, but we need to be able to refine it. Her party has slowed or stopped refining for about 50 years.”
