U.S. Vice President JD Vance sparks political controversy after launching a sharp attack on Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed during a campaign stop. Vance accused El-Sayed of hating American history and being ungrateful to the nation over his criticism of historical injustices and systemic inequalities in the United States. Campaigning alongside Republican Senate nominee Mike Rogers, Vance portrayed El-Sayed’s views as radical and overly critical of America, intensifying the political battle ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. The clash highlights growing tensions between Republicans and Democrats over American history, national identity, and the future of U.S. politics.

00:00And Abdul had every opportunity to love the place where he grew up, and he had every opportunity to love
00:08the place and feel grateful for it.
00:11He had every opportunity to feel gratitude for a country that gave him a happy upbringing, that gave him high
00:18-quality schools with good teachers, that made him captain of his high school sports team.
00:24But instead of feeling gratitude, or instead of feeling love, he chose, he made a choice to embrace the politics
00:34of grievance, one that is hell-bent on our national self-suicide.
00:41You listen to the man talk, and it's clear, Abdul doesn't love this community, Democrat or Republican.
00:48He doesn't love the people who live here.
00:50He hates the history of the United States of America.
00:54He calls our nation irredeemably racist.
00:58He calls the United States of America genocidal.
01:02And he hates the people who built it.
01:04People like my grandfather, who was for 40 years a union welder at the Middletown Works of Armco Steel in
01:12Ohio.
01:13Abdul says that men like this, men like you, men like your father and grandfather and your son, were bigots.
01:23He said, my papa, one of the greatest men that I have ever known, the man who raised me when
01:30my own mom and dad struggled, was incapable.
01:33And he said this, go and look it up, that my papa was incapable of loving my darling wife and
01:40our amazing second lady for the simple fact that he was white and she is not.
01:46Abdul said this despite being raised in part by his own white step-grandfathers.
01:53And I can only imagine, if he says that in public, what he says about you when the cameras aren't
01:59on.
02:02So deep is Syed's contempt for this nation that he lies about the most fundamental parts of who he is.
02:10He's introduced himself, and I quote, as an immigrant from North Africa.
02:16Well, ladies and gentlemen, I think that while we love anybody who wants to make a better life in this
02:22country,
02:23you ought to be damn proud of coming from the state of Michigan, and you ought to sing it from
02:27the rooftops.
02:38But you can't make this up.
02:40He invented a totally fictitious background for himself, not as a Michigander born an hour north of where we stand
02:48today,
02:49but as a foreigner who came here from 6,000 miles away.
02:53What does it say about your love of your community when you literally lie?
02:58You are so ashamed of this place that you lie about where you came from.
03:04Now, if you look at his history, he's told similar lies across his career.
03:09Here, for over a decade, he has falsely claimed himself as a dual citizen of Egypt, just to sound less
03:17American.
03:18My friends, ask yourself this.
03:21Why?
03:23Why would he lie?
03:24What is it that animates Abdul El-Sayed and drives him to seek public office?
03:31It is not the well-being of his fellow Americans.
03:35It's not the hopes or aspirations of the amazing auto workers of Detroit or the students of Ann Arbor or
03:42families in Flint.
03:43No.
03:44What excites him is this prospect of wielding the power of a country he hates.
03:51He wants to litigate ancient grievances with your tax dollars, and he wants to use the grievances of faraway lands
03:59to punish you.
04:01Well, I say on November the 3rd, send a message to Abdul El-Sayed, punish him, don't send him to
04:06Washington, D.C.
04:12You know, I'll be honest with you.
04:15I feel bad for Abdul El-Sayed because I don't understand, I don't understand how this man could have so
04:25much hatred in his heart for the people and the places that gave him so much opportunity.
04:32I don't know why he resents the things that he does.
04:35Perhaps it's because he sees them as too white or too proud or too American.
04:39But what I do know is this, that Michigan deserves better.
04:53You deserve better than a little weasel who should shut his mouth and show a little gratitude to the country
04:59that gave him everything.
05:06You deserve a senator who is grateful to this country.
05:13You deserve a senator who spent his life serving it in uniform and out.
05:23You deserve a senator who looks at this state and sees something to protect and to build upon, not something
05:30to apologize for.
05:31Ladies and gentlemen, you deserve Senator Mike Rogers.
05:53So let me ask you a question, my friends from Michigan.
05:57Do you promise me that you will never be ashamed of where we came from?
06:07Do you promise to get out there and vote for Mike Rogers on November the 3rd?
06:15Do you promise to bring 10 friends with you to the polls?
06:21And finally, do we promise to make Mike Rogers the next United States senator?
06:30Then, ladies and gentlemen, let's go do it.
06:33And let's remind the entire country that Michigan belongs to those who love the United States of America, not those
06:40who hate it.
06:41God bless Michigan and God bless our great country.
06:45That is a group of people that let us know.
