A Michigan Democrat running for U.S. Senate just made some of the most disgusting comments we’ve heard in a long time. And that’s saying something. Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, who is running for a Senate seat in Michigan, went on a podcast and decided to take vicious personal shots at Vice President JD Vance, Second Lady Usha Vance, and their children. We’re talking about attacking kids. Brown children, specifically, as El-Sayed put it. He actually used the racial makeup of the Vance family to try and score cheap political points. It’s beyond disgusting. And it’s not just the racial angle. He made crude sexual comments about the Vice President and Second Lady on top of it. Real classy stuff from a guy who wants to represent Michigan in the U.S. Senate. Take a look: “JD Vance has Brown kids who he thinks are less American than everyone else.”Far-left Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed facing major backlash over multiple comments he made about Vice President JD Vance and his children.The Michigan Democrat said that the VP’s political… pic.twitter.com/CTOajffJfl— Fox News (@FoxNews) April 20, 2026 Legal scholar Jonathan Turley weighed in on the controversy as well, calling out the ugly trend of using children for political attacks: Nothing says an age of rage like using children for racist screeds. This week, Abdul El-Sayed is in the news for attacking Vance over his “brown children” and raising his sex life. https://t.co/CxEixMtOxh The left just cannot seem to resist attacks on the conservative kinder…— Jonathan Turley (@JonathanTurley) April 20, 2026 Fox News reported on the backlash: “What do you think is going through Usha’s head when he talks? She’s like, ‘Damn, I have to sleep with him,'” El-Sayed said on “The Allen Analysis Show” posted on Friday. “I guess she’s pregnant so something is happening,” El-Sayed continued, “Can you imagine, he’s got Brown kids, at some point he’s going to have a really awkward conversation with his kids, like, you made your career hating people who are different.” El-Sayed also said on the podcast appearance that Vance has the “charisma of a doorknob” and the “aura of a toad” while urging Usha Vance to “get out” of the marriage. Imagine saying that about someone’s family and thinking it helps your campaign. The man literally told a woman to leave her husband on a public podcast. While she’s pregnant. The Gateway Pundit added more context on El-Sayed’s track record: Michigan Democrat Senate candidate Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, a Muslim and socialist, is proof that not all press is good press. He is already under fire for openly and proudly campaigning with controversial pro-Hamas/pro-Hezbollah influencer Hasan Piker. A campaign event last August took a dark turn when he suggested “choking out” opponents. “We don’t back down,” El-Sayed said to wild applause. “When they go low, we don’t go high. We take them to the mud and choke them out!” So this is a guy who campaigns with pro-Hamas influencers, talks about choking out political opponents, and now attacks the Vice President’s children based on their race. Michigan voters are going to see right through this. Former Michigan GOP gubernatorial candidate Tudor Dixon summed it up perfectly when she told Fox News, “When you’re running on racial division, you have to keep stoking racism, especially if you’re the racist.” El-Sayed is running in Michigan’s Democratic Senate primary against state Sen. Mallory McMorrow and Democratic Rep. Haley Stevens. The primary is scheduled for August 4.

Another day, another horrific crime allegedly committed by an illegal immigrant who never should have been in this country in the first place. A 19-year-old Venezuelan national is now sitting in a Harris County jail cell after allegedly beating his co-worker to death with a sledgehammer at a Houston-area construction site. And yes, he was caught and released by the Biden administration back in 2023. The victim, a carpenter named Juan Antonio Salinas Leija, was found dead inside a home he was renovating. His family discovered his body after not hearing from him for two days. Let that sink in. Here’s the story: NEW: ICE confirms that the suspect arrested in Houston, TX for allegedly using a sledgehammer to bludgeon a coworker to death is a Venezuelan illegal alien who was caught and released at the border by the Biden administration in November 2023. ICE has placed a detainer request on… pic.twitter.com/IivRCIad0x— Bill Melugin (@BillMelugin_) April 20, 2026 The reaction on social media has been fierce, and rightfully so: Meet Josue Abraham Chirino-Leonice, a criminal illegal alien from Venezuela who was released into the United States under Biden.He was arrested in Texas after he allegedly brutally m*rdered a co-worker with a sledgehammer.Democrats have blood on their hands. pic.twitter.com/8dQOIIEOI6— Libs of TikTok (@libsoftiktok) April 20, 2026 Fox News had the full details: U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has asked officials in Democratic-run Harris County not to release an illegal immigrant suspect from custody after he allegedly beat a coworker to death with a sledgehammer on a construction site in a suburb of Texas’ largest city, Houston. Venezuelan national Josue Abraham Chirino-Leonice has been charged with the murder of carpenter Juan Antonio Salinas Leija at a north Houston home earlier this month, according to reporting by local outlet KHOU-11. The outlet said Salinas Leija was found dead at a home under renovation with severe wounds consistent with a sledgehammer attack. DHS said U.S. Border Patrol first arrested Chirino-Leonice in November 2023. The agency said the Biden administration “subsequently released him into the interior of the country.” Border Patrol had this guy in custody. They had him. And the Biden administration let him walk right into the country. Now a hardworking carpenter is dead. ICE’s acting Field Office Director Gabriel Martinez didn’t hold back in a statement on the case. The official ICE press release laid out the details: “This criminal illegal alien, who never should have been allowed into the country in the first place, is accused of savagely beating a co-worker to death with a sledgehammer and leaving him to die in a house they were renovating together,” said ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations Houston acting Field Office Director Gabriel Martinez. “Our officers are working tirelessly to restore integrity to our nation’s immigration system to bring an end to the carnage and unnecessary suffering in this country that’s caused by criminal illegal aliens, and we won’t rest until we’ve accomplished that mission.” And here’s the kicker. This is all happening while the Democratic-majority Houston City Council recently voted to end a policy requiring law enforcement to hold illegal immigrants for ICE for at least 30 minutes. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has threatened to claw back $110 million from the city if they don’t reverse the move. ICE has arrested thousands of illegal immigrants in the Houston area since President Trump returned to office, including at least 414 criminal illegal aliens charged with or convicted of child sex offenses. In just five days at the start of the month, ICE Houston arrested nearly 150 criminal aliens. The Houston City Council is set to reconsider the policy this Wednesday. Given what just happened, they’d better make the right call.

The Michigan Democratic Party held its endorsement convention in Detroit this weekend. It did not go well. Rep. Haley Stevens, a pro-Israel Democrat running for the open U.S. Senate seat, was met with a wall of boos from the moment she stepped on stage at Huntington Place on Sunday. Delegates screamed “shame” at her throughout her entire speech, most of it focused on her support for Israel. She tried to push through, telling the crowd, “Democrats, I love you, even when we disagree.” It didn’t matter. As she left the stage, activists raised their fists and chanted “Shame on you.” And that was just the beginning of the disaster. Reporter Andrew Roth captured the scene: Haley Stevens is booed as she takes the stage at the MDP Convention in Detroit. She spoke over people screaming "shame" and other comments, many about Palestine, through most of her remarks."Democrats, I love you, even when we disagree," Stevens said. pic.twitter.com/dIHKC8EOW9— Andrew Roth (@RothTheReporter) April 19, 2026 The booing of Stevens highlighted a fault line that is tearing Michigan Democrats apart. Stevens has the backing of AIPAC and the party establishment. Her primary opponent, Abdul El-Sayed, is endorsed by Senator Bernie Sanders and has called Israel’s actions “genocide.” He’s also been campaigning with far-left streamer Hasan Piker, who has a history of deeply troubling statements. Fox News reported on the Piker connection: Stevens recently rejected far-left online streamer Hasan Piker, who has made controversial statements. Piker has described some Orthodox Jews as “inbred,” claimed the U.S. “deserved 9/11,” and downplayed sexual violence from Hamas’s October 7 attacks on Israel. Stevens warned Jewish Insider that embracing Piker would hurt Democrats: “Someone who’s campaigning with someone like that is not going to win in Michigan.” She’s not wrong about that. But the base clearly doesn’t care. The party is sprinting left at full speed, and anyone who pumps the brakes gets shouted off the stage. Senate Republicans summed up what’s happening to the Democrat Party right now: Extreme, Bernie-backed candidates are taking over the Democrat Party — from Graham Platner to Peggy Flanagan to Abdul El-Sayed.If you thought Chuck Schumer was radical, just wait until you meet these folks. pic.twitter.com/go1QKblkJy— Senate Republicans (@NRSC) April 20, 2026 Beyond the ideological civil war, the convention itself was a logistical train wreck. Over 7,000 delegates showed up to vote, and Michigan Democrats couldn’t manage the simplest part of democracy: counting ballots. Michigan News Source laid out the details: The voting system experienced multiple failures. Mobile voting apps malfunctioned, forcing delegates into lengthy lines. Tablet voting became the fallback option but couldn’t keep pace. Delegate registration issues prevented some attendees from voting despite eligibility. Vote tallying extended into the evening with no results released for hours. Despite finally announcing winners late that evening, the Michigan Democratic Party refused to release detailed vote counts, percentages, or margins from the races. Refused to release the vote counts. At their own convention. The party that constantly lectures Americans about “protecting democracy” can’t even run a transparent vote when the only people in the room are their own delegates. The Israel divide in Michigan isn’t new. Biden’s stance on the issue led Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud and Rep. Rashida Tlaib to decline to endorse Kamala Harris in 2024. That wound has only gotten deeper. Israel has long been a divisive issue for Michigan Democrats. It seems to be in play in 2026. Joe Biden’s stance on Israel lead to Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud and Rep. Rashida Tlaib deciding not to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris in 2024.https://t.co/dKkKfrlIu6— George Caldwell (@GCaldwell_news) April 20, 2026 All of this is a gift for Republicans. Michigan’s Senate seat is a top GOP pickup target, with Trump-endorsed former Rep. Mike Rogers expected to cruise to the nomination. While Democrats in Detroit were screaming at each other and fumbling their own ballot count, Rogers was out talking to actual Michigan voters about the issues that matter. This seat was supposed to be competitive. If Sunday’s convention is any indication, Michigan Democrats are doing everything they can to hand it away.

There are certain things you expect to hear from a pastor. Comfort in hard times. Encouragement to stay the course. Maybe even a bold call to live according to Scripture. What you don’t expect is a pastor standing up and declaring that the Bible itself is the problem. But that’s exactly what happened when UCC Bishop Yvette Flunder, the senior pastor of City of Refuge United Church of Christ in Oakland, California, delivered a message for the Center for Public Theology & Public Policy. In it, she openly called the Bible “problematic” and argued that Christians need an entirely new testament to replace the ones we already have. Yes, you read that right. A third testament. Because apparently two thousand years of Scripture just aren’t cutting it anymore. Take a look: Pastor: “I’m of the opinion that we need a third testament because the Bible has become problematic.” https://t.co/eDRyvltiFT pic.twitter.com/KaWv8mz6zr— Mike Lee (@BasedMikeLee) April 20, 2026 Flunder, who also serves as the Presiding Bishop of The Fellowship of Affirming Ministries, didn’t stop there. She went on to say that the New Testament itself is “not the Word of God.” Her exact words: “It’s words about God. Come on now. But is it the Word of God? No.” She then pointed to specific passages about slavery and about women keeping silent in churches as examples of why the Bible needs to be revised. Her solution? “We need to pull that page out.” “The New Testament is NOT the word of God’UCC Bishop says we need a ‘Third Testament’ because the first two are ‘problematic,’ and contain bad theology. As a result, “we need to pull those pages out” pic.twitter.com/zlkl51SyyD— Protestia (@Protestia) April 20, 2026 Let’s be clear about what’s happening here. This isn’t some random blogger on the internet. This is an ordained bishop in a major Protestant denomination telling her congregation that the foundational text of Christianity is flawed and needs to be replaced. Protestia had more on the story: Bishop Yvette Flunder, senior pastor of City of Refuge United Church of Christ in Oakland, California, and Presiding Bishop of The Fellowship of Affirming Ministries, made the controversial remarks during a message for the Center for Public Theology and Public Policy. Flunder argued that biblical texts addressing slavery and women’s roles in churches represent problematic theology. She specifically referenced passages commanding enslaved persons to obey their masters and instructing women to remain silent during worship services. Regarding Scripture’s authority, Flunder stated that “it’s words about God. Come on now. But is it the Word of God? No. It is not the Word of God.” The United Church of Christ has long been considered one of the most theologically liberal denominations in America. They were the first major denomination to ordain an openly gay minister back in 1972. So in some ways, this kind of statement isn’t entirely surprising from a UCC bishop. But there’s a big difference between progressive theology and outright telling people that the Bible is not the Word of God. That’s a line that even many liberal Christians are not willing to cross. Flunder identifies as a “womanist” theologian and a proponent of liberation theology. She is the founder of the Fellowship of Affirming Ministries, which describes itself as a “trans-denominational coalition” celebrating “radically inclusive love.” The reaction online has been swift and strong. Believers across denominations have pushed back hard against the idea that any human being has the authority to declare the Bible inadequate and propose a replacement. Many pointed out the obvious: if you don’t believe the Bible is the Word of God, you’re not really preaching Christianity at all. You’re preaching something else entirely. And they’re right. The Bible has endured for thousands of years. It has survived persecution, book burnings, and countless attempts to discredit it. It doesn’t need a replacement. It needs people who are willing to actually read it.
