* The Backlash: Opponents accused him of using "populist demagoguery" and dog-whistles regarding "shadowy cabals of billionaire conspirators". Representative Stevens publicly accused him of wanting to "blame all of his problems on Jewish Americans." El-Sayed strongly rejected this, emphasizing that Jewish Americans are distinct from AIPAC's lobbying and that his opposition is strictly structural—focused on halting "unilateral blank checks" of U.S. military aid.
