The [[Cenk Uygur]] Rebellion PAC October 26 advertisement pro Abdul El-Sayed ad was condemned by the [[Anti-Defamation League]] as an example of textbook Jew-hatred. The advertisement wrongly blamed the cost of groceries, including bananas, on Israel.
A group of rabbis urged Abdul El-Sayed to remove a hate campaign advertisement featuring [[Tucker Carlson]] and disavow a vile ad by TYT's Islamic bigot [[Cenk Uygur]] advertisement from an outside political group that blamed Israel and Jews, erroneously, for the rising cost of living -

A separate commentary compared US assistance to Arab countries, Israel and Ukraine. It placed annual US assistance to the broader Middle East and North Africa region at approximately $7.5 billion to $7.6 billion, with broader estimates of total regional military and economic support reaching $21 billion. It placed annual assistance to Israel at approximately $3.8 billion and Ukraine-related funding since the start of the war at approximately $175 billion to $183 billion. It highlighted Israel’s strategic and intelligence cooperation with the United States, benefits to the American defense sector and shared security interests.

[[Van Jones]] spoke out against antisemitism. He denonced Cenk Uygur's pro El Sayed ad about groceries. Noting Israel receives less than 0.1 percent of the federal budget. While singling out the Jewish state despite American spending in numerous countries. Blaming Jews for economic hardship repeats a dangerous historical pattern [such is in Nazi Germany]. The advertisement is anti-Jewish hate and should be removed, and El-Sayed should publicly condemn it.
The pro El-Sayed hateful advertisement generated widespread criticism, prompting his campaign, belated, to distance itself from the controversy.

[[Elon Musk]] accused [[Abdul El-Sayed]] of hating white people amid the Michigan Senate campaign controversy.
Haley Stevens's fiancé, Jason Turkish, intensified criticism of Abdul El-Sayed over rhetoric he said endangered Jewish people. The dispute centered on a Rebellion PAC advertisement depicting a couple unable to afford groceries while criticizing American military assistance to Israel. The advertisement was widely circulated on social media but was not broadcast on television.
Stevens called the advertisement antisemitic and demanded that El-Sayed condemn it. She also urged him to apologize for connecting American spending on Israel to Michigan's affordability problems and to remove a separate campaign advertisement featuring Tucker Carlson out of respect for the state's Black community.
El-Sayed did not produce or approve the Rebellion PAC vile advertisement and distanced himself from it. His campaign maintained that he was focused on opposing Trump's economic policies.
Stevens continued supporting El-Sayed despite their disagreement and intended to vote for him against Rogers. Turkish, however, announced that he would vote for Rogers. He said Stevens had asked only that El-Sayed stop blaming one group of people for society's economic problems.
Turkish reminded that American assistance to Israel was too small to solve major domestic problems such as hunger, healthcare and education if redirected. He said El-Sayed's rhetoric was putting Jewish people at risk and that Jewish friends and relatives had expressed serious concern. He also said references to Gaza were followed by death threats against Jews.
El-Sayed's campaign reportedly asked Stevens not to attend his remaining campaign events.
Michigan has more than 200,000 registered Muslim voters, while its Jewish adult population is approximately 105,000, representing around 1.4 percent of the electorate. Some Republican-aligned estimates place the Jewish population as high as 130,000. Michigan has the highest proportion of Arab-American residents of any U.S. state. Jewish voter turnout is historically high, while Muslim turnout has been lower. In the 2018 midterms, 50 percent of registered [[Muslim]] voters in Michigan voted.
[[CNN]]'s NewsNight coverage of the El-Sayed controversy focused on Haley Stevens's demand that he condemn the Rebellion PAC advertisement. The program's host, Lulu Garcia-Navarro, compared antisemitism concerns with discussions of Islamophobia, omitted questions about El-Sayed's relationship with the Muslim Brotherhood and gave El-Sayed's explanation of American spending on Israel significant airtime.
The coverage did not sufficiently emphasize that American assistance to Arab countries amounts to $6.7 billion [Middle East and North Africa], nearly twice the aid to Israel, and that aid to Israel represents only a tiny fraction of federal spending. It also did not adequately explain the economic, technological, military and strategic benefits the United States receives through its partnership with Israel, including American manufacturing jobs, defense contracts, intelligence cooperation and regional security.
The advertisement portrayed American weapons as instruments of Palestinian deaths without acknowledging Israel's defensive weapons systems or the role of Hamas and other armed groups in using civilian populations during warfare. It also presented no substantive connection between American aid and grocery prices.
Garcia-Navarro included a disparaging viewer comment about Stevens being motivated by bitterness. The coverage questioned the timing of Stevens's intervention rather than adequately recognizing her opposition to antisemitism. Stevens had indicated that she was willing to campaign alongside El-Sayed if he rejected the advertisement and its underlying bigotry.
The program also gave prominence to comments from Democratic strategist Mike Nellis wrongly suggesting Stevens was acting out of political resentment. By the following day [Oct/31], CNN had adopted this framing, describing the advertisement as criticism of American aid to Israel rather than emphasizing its portrayal of Jews and Israelis as responsible for grocery costs. CNN coverage also highlighted El-Sayed's request that Stevens stay away from his campaign events.
[Lulu Garcia-Navarro had previously, expressed disappointment upon discovering that a fabricated anti-Israel New York Times editorial distributed by activists was not authentic. Her response was cited as an earlier example of anti-Israel bias].
CNN's Pamela Brown provided more direct coverage of the issue when interviewing Representative Debbie Dingell and acknowledging that the advertisement had been deemed hateful.
