万斯痛批“研究生政党”，单独点名埃尔-赛义德激进的伊斯兰教法言论
万斯单独点名密歇根州民主党联邦参议员候选人阿卜杜勒·埃尔-赛义德，称民主党已抛弃工薪阶层选民，并以埃尔-赛义德过往将批评伊斯兰教法与白人至上主义挂钩的言论作为例证。

副总统J·D·万斯将阿卜杜勒·埃尔-赛义德作为其抨击现代民主党核心靶子，指出这位密歇根州联邦参议员候选人过往将批评伊斯兰教法与白人至上主义挂钩的言论，证明民主党已抛弃其工薪阶层根基。
万斯周五在其家乡俄亥俄州的克利夫兰-克利夫斯米德尔敦工厂发表了上述言论，而毗邻的密歇根州正为中期选举中竞争最激烈的参议院席位之一做准备。
埃尔-赛义德将与共和党籍前众议员迈克·罗杰斯角逐该席位，这场竞选可能会决定参议院的控制权归属。
万斯谈到了他已故的祖父，这位祖父做了40年焊工，之所以投票给民主党，是因为他相信民主党是“工会成员的政党”。但万斯认为，民主党已经偏离了其工薪阶层的身份定位。

“如今的民主党是研究生的政党，而不是维持这家工厂运转的工会和非工会工人，”万斯说。
“有时候实在很难理解这些现代民主党人到底在代表什么。但看看他们说的话。仔细留意，他们会透露出自己真正在乎的东西。”

随后，万斯将矛头对准了身为埃及穆斯林移民之子的埃尔-赛义德。
“就在不久前，他还辩称，对伊斯兰教法的批评根植于白人至上主义，”万斯说。
“我真想穿越回去告诉我父亲，有一个自称代表工薪阶层的人，不仅说我们应该推行伊斯兰教法，还说批评它的人就是白人至上主义者。朋友，这不是我祖父所在的民主党。”
万斯所指的是埃尔-赛义德在俄克拉荷马州美国伊斯兰关系理事会（CAIR）2022年度晚宴上发表的主旨演讲。
埃尔-赛义德批评了2010年的一项名为755号州提案的 ballot 措施，该提案试图修改州宪法，禁止法院在判决中考虑伊斯兰教法。该提案获得了70%的选民支持，但最终被联邦法院叫停。
“两个世纪前将原住民驱逐出家园、一个世纪前摧毁黑人和华尔街、数十年前炸毁一栋建筑、不到十年前试图禁止伊斯兰教法的那些势力，如今依然猖獗，”埃尔-赛义德说。

“我之所以要追溯到19世纪30年代，是因为不了解血泪之路，就无法理解禁止伊斯兰教法的举措；不了解塔尔萨种族大屠杀，就无法理解铲除美国穆斯林的企图；不了解白人至上主义，就无法理解我们如今面临的挑战，”埃尔-赛义德继续说道。
埃尔-赛义德在CAIR晚宴上的言论是招致保守派和共和党批评的多项言论之一，他们指责这位参议院候选人以种族和宗教视角看待政治。
其他引发争议的言论包括埃尔-赛义德指责以色列犯下“种族灭绝”，并将这个犹太国家描述为“种族隔离政权”，这引发了犹太社区成员的担忧。

不过，在初选获胜后，埃尔-赛义德表示：“我对犹太社区安全的承诺，与我对自己孩子安全的承诺一样坚定。我们有责任打击一切形式的反犹太主义，无论我们在何处发现它们。”

Vance torches ‘party of graduate students,’ singling out El-Sayed’s radical Sharia law take

Vice President JD Vance put Abdul El-Sayed at the center of his attack on the modern Democratic Party, pointing to the Michigan Senate nominee’s past remarks linking criticism of Sharia law to White supremacy as evidence that the party has abandoned its working-class roots.
Vance delivered the remarks Friday at the Cleveland-Cliffs Middletown Works steel plant in his Ohio hometown as neighboring Michigan gears up for one of the midterms’ most competitive Senate races.
El-Sayed is facing Republican former Rep. Mike Rogers in a contest that could help determine control of the Senate.
Vance spoke about his late grandfather, who worked as a welder for 40 years and voted Democrat because he believed it was “the party of union men.” But Vance argued the Democratic Party has strayed from its working-class identity.

“This is the party, the Democrat party of graduate students, rather than the union and nonunion workers who make this facility run,” Vance said.
“It’s sometimes actually hard to understand what these modern Democrats actually stand for. But look what they say. Pay close attention, and they’ll leave these little hints of what they actually care about.”

Vance then turned his attention to El-Sayed, the son of Muslim Egyptian immigrants.
“He once argued, not too long ago, that criticisms of Sharia law were rooted in White supremacy,” Vance said.
“I’d love to go back in time and tell my papa that there is a man who claims to stand for working people who says not only should we have Sharia law, but if you criticize it you’re a White supremacist. That’s not my grandpa’s Democratic Party, my friend.”
Vance was referring to a speech El-Sayed gave at the Council on American-Islamic Relations’ (CAIR) 2022 annual banquet in Oklahoma, where he was the keynote speaker.
El-Sayed criticized a 2010 ballot measure known as State Question 755, which sought to amend the state constitution to ban courts from considering Sharia law in their decisions. The measure was approved by 70% of voters but was ultimately blocked by federal courts.
“The same exact forces that drove native peoples from their land two centuries ago, destroyed Black Wall Street a century ago, bombed a building decades ago and tried to ban Sharia law not a decade ago, those forces are alive and well today,” El-Sayed said.

“The reason I wanted to go all the way back to the 1830s is because you can’t understand a Shariah ban without understanding the Trail of Tears,” El-Sayed continued. “You can’t understand the efforts to uproot Muslim Americans without understanding the Tulsa massacre. You cannot understand the challenges we face today without understanding White supremacy.”
El-Sayed’s remarks at the CAIR banquet are among several statements that have drawn criticism from conservatives and Republicans who accuse the Senate candidate of viewing politics through the lens of race and religion.
Other remarks generating criticism include El-Sayed accusing Israel of committing “genocide” and describing the Jewish state as an “apartheid,” while prompting concerns from members of the Jewish community.

However, after his primary victory, El-Sayed said, “My commitment to Jewish safety is the same as my commitment to the safety of my own kids. We have a responsibility to take on antisemitism in all of its forms, wherever we see it.”
