Abdul El-Sayed niega vínculos con la Hermandad Musulmana

El candidato demócrata al Senado Abdul El-Sayed negó las acusaciones de que él o su familia tengan vínculos con la Hermandad Musulmana durante un debate televisado en Caro, Michigan, y su rival republicano Mike Rogers citó una carta de 2012 al presidente de Egipto como evidencia. Con anterioridad, El-Sayed había confrontado a un activista republicano, insistiendo en que la Constitución, no su fe, debía ser el centro del debate, y respondió a preguntas islamofóbicas en una reunión pública que se volvió viral. Tras ser calificado de “yihadista” por el presidente Donald Trump, líderes árabes y musulmanes protestaron.

Un documento mostró que la organización sin fines de lucro America Next destinó 250 000 dólares a una campaña de influencers dirigida contra El-Sayed, gestionada por el hijo del estratega republicano Timmy Teepell. El episodio se originó cuando un exasistente del senador Josh Hawley, identificado como Thomas Teepell, interpeló a El-Sayed en una asamblea exigiendo que repudiara a la Hermandad Musulmana.
