密歇根州民主党参议院候选人阿卜杜勒·埃尔-赛义德正试图与他的一位核心支持者哈桑·皮克尔拉开距离，此前这位颇具争议的流媒体主播再度引发轩然大波。
在密歇根州这场势均力敌的参议院对决中，埃尔-赛义德正与前共和党众议员迈克·罗杰斯交锋。他周一在一份声明中强调：“我想明确说明，除了我本人和我的竞选发言人之外，没有人能代表本竞选团队发声。”
埃尔-赛义德发表上述声明之前，皮克尔上周在其直播中展示了密歇根州第11国会选区民主党参议员候选人杰里米·莫斯的照片。身为犹太人的莫斯曾表示，有人在传播一段伪造的音频剪辑，其中他声称自己参选国会的唯一目的就是确保美国继续支持以色列。
“如果美国的犹太人一直宣扬他们完全站在以色列一边，最终总会有人站出来采取行动，请注意，不是针对以色列国，而是针对美国的犹太人，”皮克尔警告道。

皮克尔曾支持埃尔-赛义德获得民主党提名，并出席了该候选人的多场竞选活动，包括底特律的初选之夜派对。他多次为自己过去针对以色列与哈马斯在加沙持续战争的诸多批评言论辩护。
皮克尔的最新言论自上周末引发关注以来，遭到了越来越多共和党人和民主党人的抨击。密歇根州民主党众议员希拉里·斯科尔顿指责皮克尔是“靠煽动仇恨牟利的庸才”。
罗杰斯周日在社交媒体发文，将矛头直指皮克尔和埃尔-赛义德二人。
“埃尔-赛义德竞选团队又发出了暴力叫嚣，”罗杰斯说道。他还声称，“这就是他的竞选搭档哈桑·皮克尔，他声称如果美国犹太人支持以色列，就会因此成为暴力袭击目标。”
罗杰斯补充道：“这绝对令人作呕。如果阿卜杜勒·埃尔-赛义德还有半点勇气，他就应该站出来谴责这一言论，彻底与哈桑·皮克尔划清界限。我们拭目以待，阿卜杜勒……”

埃尔-赛义德在声明中写道：“我认为所有美国人都有权倡导自己的信仰，不必担心遭受暴力。对于那些过去曾因信仰受到恐吓的群体而言，这一点尤为重要。”
“我对犹太群体安全的承诺，与我对自己女儿们安全的承诺别无二致。反犹主义是一场灾祸，我们必须彻底根除其各种表现形式。我反对任何将该群体置于危险境地的言论，”他补充道。
这位民主党候选人显然是在回击将埃尔-赛义德与皮克尔绑定的罗杰斯和其他共和党人，他写道：“尽管政客和评论员试图将这场竞选扭曲为关于一位Twitch主播的闹剧，但我们要讨论的是汽油、食品杂货、优质学校和医疗保健。因为这才是密歇根州民众一直关心的议题。”
作为韦恩县前卫生部门主管，埃尔-赛义德如果在11月当选，将成为美国首位穆斯林参议员。这位流行病学家曾在2018年以黑马身份竞选州长但 unsuccessful，他将支持“全民医保”作为竞选的核心议题，同时呼吁废除美国移民及海关执法局（ICE）。

但埃尔-赛义德关于以色列的立场和言论冒犯了密歇根州的一些犹太民众，该州同时也拥有庞大的阿拉伯和穆斯林人口。
本月，埃尔-赛义德在MS NOW的一次采访中用“嗜血”形容以色列在加沙的军事行动，并指责以色列领导层对巴勒斯坦人实施种族灭绝。与其他进步派政客一样，他反对无条件向以色列提供军事援助。埃尔-赛义德还多次拒绝直接回答以色列是否有权存在这一问题。
但埃尔-赛义德也多次表示，他站在“我的犹太兄弟姐妹一边”，“谴责反犹主义”。
两年前，罗杰斯在密歇根州联邦参议院选举中仅以2万票之差落败，如今他正敦促包括犹太选民在内的民主党人跨党派投票支持他，这是他第二次参选参议院席位。

在一场充满火药味和分裂的民主党参议院初选中，埃尔-赛义德以微弱优势击败更为温和的众议员黑利·史蒂文斯获得提名。此后，罗杰斯正大力拉拢对这位左翼候选人不满的民主党人。
罗杰斯竞选纲领的关键部分针对的是犹太民主党人，他们对埃尔-赛义德直言不讳地批评以色列对哈马斯的战争感到不安，并对埃尔-赛义德与皮克尔的关联感到愤怒。
“我通常会投民主党人的票，但这次我会把票投给迈克·罗杰斯，”阿舍·洛帕廷拉比说道。上周晚些时候，这位拉比站在罗杰斯身旁，当时这位前国会议员、前联邦调查局特工在底特律西区的一场竞选活动中公布了他的“民主党人支持迈克”联盟。
洛帕廷是底特律郊区的一名拉比，曾多次前往中东推动以色列与阿拉伯邻国之间的和平。他认为埃尔-赛义德“将哈桑·皮克尔——一名恶毒的反犹主义者和种族主义者——作为其竞选代理人，并与其称兄道弟，这表现出了对犹太群体的蔑视，坦率地说，也蔑视美国的价值观。”

与此同时，密歇根州的一些犹太领袖正在传阅一封公开信，敦促该大湖摇摆州的犹太民主党人和无党派人士签名支持罗杰斯。这一消息本周由《犹太内幕》率先报道，并由福克斯新闻数字频道证实。
“这有点像是生死攸关的时刻，”一位要求匿名以便畅所欲言的参与该信件筹备工作的人士告诉福克斯新闻数字频道。“有很多终身民主党人感到无家可归……这不仅仅是向左翼靠拢，而是演变成了反犹倾向。”
但密歇根民主党犹太核心小组 endorsement主席琼·洛温斯坦并不认可这封信，她告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，该组织将保持距离。
“我们是密歇根民主党党的一部分，不会倡导任何人投票给共和党，”她说。
但同时也是密歇根民主党中央委员会成员的洛温斯坦表示，发起这封信的人“对此充满热情，认为这是一个生死攸关的问题，我认为这代表了很多人的想法。因此，他们必须做他们认为该做的事。”

埃尔-赛义德的通讯主任罗克西·里奇纳上周告诉福克斯新闻数字频道：“阿卜杜勒一直强调区分批评以色列国和反犹主义的重要性。”
她表示，埃尔-赛义德“仍在与全州各地的犹太领袖保持定期沟通，同时组建尽可能广泛的联盟，以击败罗杰斯，恢复民主党对美国参议院的控制，并阻碍特朗普的议程。”

Democratic Senate nominee in Michigan Abdul El-Sayed is trying to put some distance between himself and one of his top supporters, Hasan Piker, after the controversial streamer sparked a new firestorm.
El-Sayed, who is facing off against former Republican Rep. Mike Rogers in battleground Michigan in a high-stakes Senate showdown, on Monday emphasized in a statement, “I want to be crystal clear, nobody speaks for this campaign besides me and my campaign spokespeople.”
The statement from El-Sayed came after Piker, on his stream last week, featured an image of state Sen. Jeremy Moss, the Democratic nominee in Michigan’s 11th Congressional District. Moss, who is Jewish, has said that people are sharing a fake audio clip of him claiming that his entire reason for running for Congress is to make sure that America continues to support Israel.
“If Jews in America keep putting this idea out there that they are singularly invested in Israel, eventually someone is going to come around and take action, not against the state of Israel, mind you, but against American Jews,” Piker warned.
DEMOCRATS ‘WHO NEVER VOTED REPUBLICAN’ BACKING THIS GOP SENATE NOMINEE

Piker, who endorsed El-Sayed for the Democratic nomination and appeared at some of the candidate’s campaign events including a primary night party in Detroit, has repeatedly stood by his numerous past comments critical of Israel over its ongoing war against Hamas in Gaza.
Piker’s latest comments have been blasted by a growing number of Republicans and Democrats since they grabbed attention this past weekend. Democratic Rep. Hillary Scholten of Michigan charged that Piker is “a hack who thrives on hate.”
Rogers, in a social media post on Sunday, took aim at both Piker and El-Sayed.
“More calls for violence coming out of the El-Sayed campaign,” Rogers said. And he claimed, “Here is his running mate, Hasan Piker, saying that if AMERICAN JEWS support Israel, they will be violently targeted because of it.”
Rogers added, “Absolutely DISGUSTING. If Abdul El-Sayed had any courage at all, he would call this out and disavow Hasan Piker once and for all. We’re waiting, Abdul…”

El-Sayed, in his statement, wrote, “I believe all Americans deserve the right to advocate for what they believe without fear of violence. This is particularly true for communities that have been intimidated for their beliefs in the past.”
“My commitment to Jewish safety is the same as my commitment to the safety of my own daughters. Antisemitism is a scourge, and we need to address it in all its forms. And I stand against any rhetoric that puts the community at risk,” he added.
In an apparent jab at Rogers and other Republicans who have repeatedly tied El-Sayed to Piker, the Democratic nominee wrote that “while politicians and pundits try to make this race about a Twitch streamer, we’re going to be talking about gas, groceries, good schools, and healthcare. Because that’s what Michiganders keep asking about.’
A former Wayne County Health Department director, El-Sayed, if elected in November, would make history as the nation’s first Muslim senator. The epidemiologist who unsuccessfully ran for governor as an insurgent candidate in 2018 has made support for Medicare for all a major component of his campaign and has also called for abolishing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

But it’s El-Sayed’s stance and comments on Israel that have offended some Jewish people in Michigan, a state that also has a large Arab and Muslim population.
El-Sayed used the word “bloodthirsty” to characterize Israel’s military moves in Gaza in an MS NOW interview this month and accused Israeli leadership of genocide against Palestinians. He has argued against unconditional U.S. military aid to Israel, as have other progressive politicians. And El-Sayed has repeatedly declined to directly answer whether Israel has the right to exist.
But El-Sayed has also repeatedly stated that he stands “in solidarity with my Jewish sisters and brothers” to “condemn antisemitism.”
After falling just 20,000 votes shy of winning the U.S. Senate election in Michigan two years ago, Rogers is urging Democrats, including Jewish voters, to cross party lines and vote for him as he makes a second straight Senate bid.
WHAT THE LATEST FOX NEWS POWER RANKINGS IN THE MIDTERM RACES SHOW

After a combustible and divisive Democratic Senate primary in which El-Sayed narrowly edged more moderate Rep. Haley Stevens for the nomination, Rogers is heavily courting Democrats disaffected with their left-wing nominee.
A key part of Rogers’ pitch is directed toward Jewish Democrats, who are uneasy with El–Sayed’s vocal criticism of Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza and who are outraged by El-Sayed’s association with Piker.
“I usually vote Democrat, but I’m going to be voting for Mike Rogers,” Rabbi Asher Lopatin said as he stood next to Rogers late last week as the former congressman and former FBI agent unveiled his Democrats for Mike coalition at a campaign event on Detroit’s west side.
Lopatin, a rabbi in suburban Detroit who has made trips to the Middle East in search of peace between Israel and its Arab neighbors, argued that El-Sayed “has shown contempt for the Jewish community and, frankly, for American values by making Hasan Piker, a vicious antisemite and racist, his campaign surrogate and somebody he buddies up with.”

Meanwhile, some Jewish leaders in Michigan are circulating an open letter urging Jewish Democrats and independents in the Great Lakes battleground state to sign their names in support of Rogers. The news was first reported this week by the Jewish Insider and confirmed by Fox News Digital.
“This is sort of a do-or-die moment,” a person involved with the letter who asked to remain anonymous to speak more freely told Fox News Digital. “There are many lifelong Democrats who are feeling homeless. … It’s not just a leftward drift but has turned into an anti-Jewish drift as well.”
But Joan Lowenstein, endorsement chair of the Michigan Democratic Jewish Caucus, doesn’t condone the letter and told Fox News Digital her group is keeping its distance.
“We are a part of the Michigan Democratic Party, and are not going to advocate that anyone vote for a Republican,” she said.
But Lowenstein, who also sits on the Michigan Democratic Party Central Committee, said those behind the letter “are passionate about this and feel it’s an existential issue, and I think that represents a lot of people. And, so, they have to do what they have to do.”

El-Sayed Communications Director Roxie Richner last week told Fox News Digital, “Abdul has always stressed the importance of differentiating between criticizing the state of Israel and antisemitism.”
She said El-Sayed “remains in regular dialogue with Jewish leaders across the state while building the broadest possible coalition to defeat Rogers, restore Democratic control of the U.S. Senate and throw sand in the gears of Trump’s agenda.”
