Is the radical corporate apparatus finally waking up to who pays the bills?
The NBA has reportedly hired Excel Search & Advisory, the executive search division of the same sports agency that represents WNBA superstar Caitlin Clark, to lead the hunt for the league’s next commissioner.
The move comes as embattled WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert prepares to retire at the end of 2026 after seven years running the league.
According to Sports Business Journal, the NBA retained Excel Search & Advisory to conduct the commissioner search, with NBA Commissioner Adam Silver ultimately expected to make the hiring decision.
Brennan highlighted the development Thursday on X, calling it “big news” for the WNBA and suggesting the move could signal an end to what she views as the league leadership’s repeated minimization of Clark’s enormous impact.
This is big news for the WNBA. I can confirm that the NBA has hired the executive search arm of Caitlin Clark’s agency to find the next WNBA commissioner. Perhaps the ridiculous minimization of Clark’s impact, led by Cathy Engelbert, is coming to an end.https://t.co/6dJRhlEQlZ
Excel Sports Management publicly lists Clark among its basketball talent and describes Excel Search & Advisory as its specialized executive-search and leadership-consulting operation for the sports and entertainment industries.
The search division says it has spent roughly two decades placing senior executives across dozens of sports and countries, including commissioner-level positions.
This is particularly notable considering the WNBA’s bizarre handling of the biggest superstar to enter the league in years.
Clark arrived in the WNBA after smashing NCAA records and bringing unprecedented attention to women’s basketball.
She quickly became a massive television and ticket draw, yet instead of fully embracing its new superstar, the league repeatedly found itself engulfed in controversies involving Clark, officiating, hard fouls, player hostility, and arguments over how much credit she deserved for the WNBA’s explosion in attention.
Senior Trump administration officials held a “highly unusual meeting” to discuss next moves in the Iran War and other regional matters, Axios reported Friday.
Vice President J.D. Vance chaired the meeting, which also included Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, special envoy Steve Witkoff, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, and chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Dan Caine.
“Things were decided or at least deeply discussed,” one U.S. official told Axios.
European leaders agreed to release a “massive amount” of diesel reserves to help lower global prices, Trump said on Friday. Diesel prices in the U.S. smashed records in recent weeks, hitting $6.53 a gallon and remaining elevated, even as traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has increased.
One vessel was struck in the waterway Friday and another was struck overnight into Saturday.
The average price of regular gasoline in America was $4.38 per gallon on Saturday, down ten cents from a week ago.
Loud explosions were heard in Sanaa, the capital of Yemen, on Saturday. The Houthis, an Iran-backed militant group, reported airstrikes by Saudi Arabia. Fighting between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis broke out this July and Riyadh has urged Trump to join the conflict.
Newly unsealed police bodycam footage shows the moment Altoona officers found Luigi Mangione at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s five days after UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was shot dead outside a Manhattan hotel.
A Manhattan judge released the recordings Friday after CNN petitioned to unseal them.
Parts of the footage had been previously played at a suppression hearing last December but had not been made public.
Thompson, 50, was killed on the morning of December 4, 2024, as he walked toward his company’s investor conference in Midtown.
Mangione, then 26, was picked up on December 9 at a McDonald’s in Altoona, nearly 300 miles from the scene of the assassination.
Employees had called about a suspicious customer.
When officers arrived, they saw a man in a ski hat, surgical mask, and winter coat eating a hash brown while Christmas music played.
They told him they were responding to a call about a suspicious person and asked for identification. He handed over a New Jersey license in the name of Mark Rosario, the same name prosecutors say the shooter used at a New York hostel.
An officer asked why he looked nervous.
They told him to put his hands on his head and asked if he had been in New York.
“You’re under official police investigation right now,” one warned. “You give a false name to us again, you’re gonna be arrested for false ID.”
An officer said, “That’s 100% him.”
Another officer responded, “I told you, man.”
Mangione asked why so many cops were there.
When an officer later pressed whether Rosario was really his name, he said, “Uh, no, sir.”
When asked for his real name, he said, “Uh, Luigi.”
When he was asked why he lied, he said, “I clearly shouldn’t have,” then spelled his name.
Officers patted him down, read him his rights, and cuffed him in the restaurant.
A search of the black backpack turned up a gun magazine wrapped in underwear.

Newly unsealed bodycam footage captures the moment officers realize they had Luigi Mangione after finding a gun magazine during his arrest at an Altoona, Pennsylvania, McDonald’s.
Officers searched Mangione more thoroughly at the station.
Officers found a 9mm handgun that was later tied to the shooting, a silencer, another magazine, and a handwritten journal.
Prosecutors have said the notes showed an intent to “wack” a health-insurance executive.
One officer, ticking off the inventory on the phone, said Mangione had “a checklist for today” and that “tomorrow he’s supposed to do an intel check-in and get a survival kit.”
Mangione pleaded guilty in August to federal stalking charges and faces sentencing in December.
The New York Post reports, “His state trial has been postponed while a judge rules on Mangione’s motion to dismiss the murder case.”
Democratic Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed has suggested that African Americans often have negative experiences with their Arab counterparts.
El-Sayed, who is of Egyptian descent, made the remarks during an appearance on the Higher Learning podcast.
He was asked about his efforts to strengthen support among black voters ahead of November’s election.
El-Sayed pointed to endorsements from black political leaders and organizations before saying there was also an “elephant in the room” that needed addressing.
“Too often, when folks meet somebody who looks like me, it’s not a good experience,” El-Sayed said.
“Too often, they’re seeing them from behind bulletproof glass in a liquor store or in a gas station. They’re being catcalled, if they’re a woman.”

As a former Detroit health director, El-Sayed also cited complaints about expired food being sold in stores and cigarettes being illegally sold individually to children.
He ecalled confronting an Arab shopkeeper about conditions inside his store while serving in city government.
His comments touch on longstanding tensions between some members of Detroit’s large black population and Arab-American business owners, particularly in predominantly black neighborhoods.
The issue has emerged during a closely contested Senate race against former Republican Congressman Mike Rogers.
It’s Abdul, habibi. The one you’ll be calling Senator Abdul when we send your little guy back to Florida in November. https://t.co/H7m0eTDqY5
El-Sayed won the Democratic nomination in August and has received backing from prominent party figures including Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the Congressional Black Caucus PAC.
Meanwhile, former Vice-President Kamala Harris recently campaigned alongside him in Detroit.
LEAKED: Footage of Abdul El-Sayed fundraising last night in the California home of the far-left Soros family.

Republicans consider the race as a possible pick-up opportunity because El-Sayed’s radical beliefs and his links to the Democratic Socialists of America and various Islamic groups.
According to the latest RealClearPolling polling average, El-Sayed currently holds a 3.5 percent lead of his opponent, with some polls putting the race within the margin of error.
The two candidates are scheduled to meet for their first televised debate next week.
Biden Judge David Leibowitz throws out case on non-citizens voting in America. Insane.
Biden commie Judge David Leibowitz from Florida ruled in favor of a Jamaican national because it was federal prosecutors who brought the case under a federal statute against non-citizens voting.
Leibowitz claims only states can decide whether noncitizens can vote. WTH?
The dirty communists are out of control in America today!
They know they need the illegal votes or Democrats CAN’T WIN!
Senator Mike Lee pointed out the obvious here:
Mike Lee: First leftist senators blocked the SAVE America Act, insisting that “noncitizens don’t vote.”
Now leftist judges are trying to invalidate the federal law prohibiting noncitizen voting.
If you find this unacceptable, vote for Republicans in November.

Rush Limbaugh was onto the Democrat game back in October 2020 before the stolen 2020 presidential election. An election where Donald Trump won EVERY battleground House race, every historic swing battleground state, and every bellwether county in the US except one. It was statistically impossible for Joe Biden to then “win” the election.
Democrats pushed a candidate in 2020 who could not complete a full sentence, who hid in his basement, and when he did hold a public “rally” he could only get a few dozen supporters to show up in a parking lot to honk horns.
But Democrats were never worried for some reason. You never saw Democrats in full-on panic mode. This was a huge “tell.”
They weren’t campaigning. They weren’t nervous. Their plan was to cheat.
Americans suffered through the tyranny that follows a stolen election.
Democrats charged hundreds of Trump supporters, and raided their homes. They held political prisoners for years without trial. They threatened to raid the homes of another 1,000 Trump supporters. They spread fear across the land. Democrats indicted a former president on junk charges while they ignored the BANK STATEMENTS that prove Joe Biden and his family were involved in a massive illegal fraud scheme. This is what you get with stolen elections.
Rush Limbaugh called this out in October of 2020. The great American radio host told his vast audience what Democrats were up to. And he was right.
They resent the whole premise behind elections. Look, they don’t believe they should have to persuade anybody to agree with them. Therefore, they don’t believe in campaigns. They don’t believe in the free, open exchange of ideas. There aren’t any legitimate ideas outside of their own.
They don’t believe in giving legitimacy to anybody who is not already on their side. So if this is who they are psychologically — if they have no interest in persuading people, if they have no interest in acquiring power as a result of massive public support — then who are they? What are they? They want power simply to have it. They don’t want it to derive from the people.
They don’t want it to derive from persuading people that their ideas are the best — and where is all of that codified? All of that thinking, all of that behavior is codified in elections. What are elections about? Elections are about trying to persuade people to support you, to vote for you. Based on what? Well, it could be any number of things.
It could be you’re better looking than the other guy. You’re gonna give away more welfare than the other guy. You’re gonna beat our enemies better than anybody else. Whatever it is, elections are the result of persuading millions of people to support you. They resent having to do that. One reason is they’re a minority. They can’t persuade a majority of people.
They can’t persuade a majority of Americans to support Black Lives Matter. They can’t persuade a majority of Americans to support burning down American cities and private property. They can’t persuade a majority of Americans to go along with their ideas on guns and eliminating free speech. They can’t persuade anybody to agree with that!
Those are things they’re gonna have to force on people, and they are more than willing and eager to force that stuff on you, but they need the power to do it. So they have to go through the motions. The modern-day Democrats have to go through the motions of campaigning, and they have to go through the motions of trying to win the hearts and minds of voters.
But they resent the hell out of it. And in their world, it’s the one thing standing in their way: This need, this requirement to win elections. And I’m just telling you: As soon as they can figure out a way to eliminate elections, they will do it, ’cause they resent the hell out of it. This is… (interruption) Mr. Snerdley, the program observer, just said to me over the IFB.
He said, “I gotta admit something. When I first heard you say that the left and Democrats ultimately want to do away with elections, I thought you were going insane. I thought you were mad. I thought that all of this had finally gotten to you.” Well, that has to be some years ago now when I first advanced the theory. But now you say you can see it?
(interruption) “They’re doing it in front of our faces.” They really are. They are attempting to win elections without broad public support. That’s what they’re trying to do. That’s just another way of phrasing what they’re doing. How do you win elections without broad public support?
Former Republican Rep. David Rivera of Florida was sentenced to 10 years in federal prison (Screenshot: WPLG Local 10)
A former U.S. congressman will now spend a full decade behind bars after being handed a 10-year federal prison sentence on Friday.
Former Florida politician David Rivera was slapped with the decade-long sentence after being convicted of secretly acting as an unregistered foreign agent for a hostile regime, failing to register under FARA rules, and conspiring to launder tens of millions of dollars tied to the illicit scheme.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported in May, Rivera and Nuhfer were found guilty by a federal jury following a trial that exposed the secret Venezuela-linked lobbying arrangement.
The previous Gateway Pundit report detailed prosecutors’ allegations that Rivera and Nuhfer accepted millions connected to the Maduro government while concealing the relationship and using Rivera’s political connections to pursue Venezuela’s interests in the United States.
Rivera had faced a statutory maximum of as much as 60 years behind bars following his conviction.
On Friday, U.S. District Judge Melissa Damian handed down the 120-month sentence on October 2 following Rivera’s conviction on conspiracy to violate the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), violating FARA, conspiracy to commit money laundering, and four counts involving transactions in criminally derived property, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida.
Rivera, 61, represented Florida as a Republican in the U.S. House from 2011 to 2013.
Federal prosecutors said Rivera and political consultant Esther Nuhfer secured a staggering $50 million contract with a subsidiary of Venezuela’s state-owned oil company, Petróleos de Venezuela, or PDVSA.
But prosecutors said the arrangement went far beyond ordinary consulting.
According to evidence presented at trial, Rivera and Nuhfer secretly worked to advance the interests of the Venezuelan government in Washington while failing to register as foreign agents as required by federal law.
The pair allegedly leveraged Rivera’s political relationships to lobby American officials, including then-Senator Marco Rubio and Congressman Pete Sessions, and helped arrange contacts between U.S. policymakers and senior Venezuelan officials, including Nicolás Maduro and Delcy Rodríguez. Prosecutors also said Rivera and Nuhfer used coded language in their communications while conducting the operation.
Rubio testified during the trial that he was unaware Rivera was working under the Venezuelan-linked consulting agreement, according to the Associated Press.
Rivera’s attorneys have maintained that his work was commercial rather than political and have indicated they intend to appeal his conviction.
Federal prosecutors said the money did not simply remain inside a consulting operation.
Evidence introduced at trial showed Rivera deposited approximately $1.5 million in proceeds from the contract into his Florida state congressional campaign account between March 2017 and August 2018, according to the Justice Department’s sentencing announcement.
Nuhfer allegedly used approximately $455,000 in proceeds to purchase a home in Key Colony Beach, Florida.
Nuhfer was convicted alongside Rivera of FARA and money-laundering offenses and was previously sentenced to five years in federal prison.
The case was investigated by the FBI’s Miami Field Office and IRS Criminal Investigation.
U.S. Attorney Jason Reding Quiñones said following Rivera’s sentencing that “foreign influence in America cannot operate in the shadows.”
“Today’s sentence reinforces a simple rule: foreign influence in America cannot operate in the shadows,” said U.S. Attorney Jason A. Reding Quiñones for the Southern District of Florida. “If you act at the request, direction, or control of a foreign government and engage in covered political activity, you must comply with our disclosure laws. That can include conduct like arranging a meeting with policymakers, lobbying a government official, or promoting a foreign government’s message on social media.
“For a former Congressman from South Florida, this betrayal cuts especially deep. Rivera represented a community shaped by generations of families who fled communist oppression and came to this country seeking freedom. He knew that history. He knew what this community had endured. Yet the jury found that, for millions of dollars, he secretly used the access and relationships entrusted to him to advance the interests of the Maduro regime.

President Donald Trump dropped a late-night bombshell Friday for America’s seniors, announcing that his administration will immediately begin sending “checks” of nearly $100 to more than 20 million Medicare beneficiaries to help cover their Part B premiums.
The payments are expected to begin arriving within days.
Trump also separated this payment from another round of refunds already in motion. As The Gateway Pundit reported last month, the administration is sending $500 “Working Families Obamacare Refund” checks to nearly one million Americans in 30 states who were overcharged on Affordable Care Act plans, overcharges the Biden team studied and then kept. Those checks were also scheduled to start going out in October.
Trump closed the post by reminding voters of the larger promise still on the table: the $5,000 “Trump Dividend” for U.S. citizens if Republicans hold Congress in the November midterms.
According to a White House fact sheet released the same night, the one-time payments are $90 per person and will go to more than 20 million Part B enrollees. Most eligible seniors will see a direct deposit in early October. Those without direct deposit will get a paper check mailed to the address on file with Medicare, also in early October.
The money is coming out of the Medicare Improvement Fund, created in 2008 and stocked with $2 billion by Congress for fee-for-service improvements. No administration had ever used it.
The White House says Trump is the first president to tap the fund to put cash directly back in seniors’ pockets instead of leaving it for special interests.
The same fact sheet notes that previous Congresses treated the account as a piggy bank, including Democrats who raided $20.7 billion from the fund as part of the Unaffordable Care Act, better known as Obamacare.
Most Part B enrollees qualify. Seniors whose premiums are already paid by Medicaid, or who pay the Income-Related Monthly Adjustment Amount, do not.
Beneficiaries can call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227) to check eligibility. Payment status questions go to the Social Security Administration at 1-800-772-1213.
“I am pleased to announce that my Administration will, immediately, begin sending “Checks” of nearly $100 to over 20 MILLION wonderful Seniors to help pay for their Medicare Part B premiums, which we have already reduced by significant amounts.
“This money will come from the Medicare Improvement Fund, a pointless “Slush Fund” that has only been used by Dumocrats in Congress to pay for the Waste, Fraud, and Abuse for their Special Interest friends, and drive up Healthcare costs. We are finally using this Fund, along with my Most Favored Nations Deals, to substantially LOWER costs for our Seniors.
“I pledged to protect and preserve Medicare and Social Security, which were on the verge of RUIN by Joe Biden, who foolishly and maliciously let tens of millions of Illegal Aliens into our Country, and we are doing just that for America’s Seniors.
“This is separate from the equally substantial Refund “Checks” we are sending to One Million Americans who were overcharged for their Unaffordable Care Act plans by Joe Biden.
“Because I delivered on this very important issue for the American People, they can also rest assured the highly popular $5,000 Trump Dividend will be distributed to every U.S. Citizen if, and when, the Republicans win the Midterm Elections! Thank you for your attention to this matter.”
The man accused of brutally murdering former British government minister Ann Widdecombe has been charged with preparing acts of terrorism, including against Reform UK leader Nigel Farage.
Joshua Kerry, 28, of Rotherham, South Yorkshire, was charged Friday with one count of preparation of terrorist acts under the Terrorism Act 2006.
Counter Terrorism Policing said the alleged activity took place between May 31, 2024, and July 8, 2026, and included conduct directed against Farage.
Kerry is already awaiting trial for the murder of Widdecombe, the former Conservative minister who later joined the Brexit Party and became friend and ally of Farage.
Widdecombe, 78, was found dead at her home in Haytor on Dartmoor in July.
Prosecutors previously told a court that she had been struck in the head 21 times with a hammer. Kerry was subsequently charged with her murder and remanded in custody.
🚨 SUMMARY: Ann Widdecombe’s murder suspect Joshua Kerry has been charged with a terror offence against Nigel Farage
– It comes after Counter Terror Police reopened an investigation following Widdecombe’s murder into an attempted firebombing at Farage’s home in April 2025
Police have not publicly disclosed precisely what Kerry is alleged to have planned against Farage.
“We have been running a hugely intensive and complex investigation for some time,” Deputy Assistant Commissioner Vicki Evans, the senior national coordinator for Counter Terrorism Policing, said.
Evans said detectives, analysts and forensic specialists had pursued “multiple lines of enquiry” before the latest charge was authorized.
The development raises fresh concerns about the security of Farage and other high-profile British politicians.
Farage has previously spoken publicly about the volume of threats directed against him and has faced several security incidents during his political career.
Reform UK deputy leader Richard Tice described the latest development as “terrifying.”
“This is why he needs money for security,” Tice said.
Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood expressed her “sympathies” with Farage.
“My profound sympathies are with Nigel Farage and his family,” Mahmood said, adding that “an attack on anyone in politics is an attack on us all.”
She also said the case raised “serious questions” about protections afforded to people in public life and promised an update to Parliament on efforts to strengthen security.
I know the new charges made today will be extremely concerning. My profound sympathies are with Nigel Farage and his family.
Let no one make any mistake: an attack on anyone in politics is an attack on us all.
This case raises serious questions about the security of those in…
Jordan Domingue, a top staffer who worked two of Abdul El-Sayed’s campaigns has quit the Democrat’s U.S. Senate race and is now talking. What he describes is a candidate who has faked his way through public life, right down to the “physician” title. This is a lengthy article, but every American needs to understand, from an insiders perspective, how dangerous this man would be if elected to the U.S. Senate.
Jordan Domingue and El-Sayed
In a post on X, Jordan Domingue outlines his decision to defect from Abdul’s campaign after working first on his failed gubernatorial campaign and again on his current Senate campaign.
“His foreign policy was driven by a desire to invoke what seemed like misplaced revenge.”
I protected Abdul for two years, I worked as his personal assistant/executive protection lead on his campaigns. I departed two jobs early from working abroad, moved to Michigan twice, and took paycuts averaging 50,000k.
I took his lovely wife to the hospital for visits when she was pregnant. His youngest daughter called me Mr. Jorjan. I painted him an original piece of artwork for his birthday.
I was happy to do and experience all of this. For his gubernatorial run he never mentioned foreign policy. During his senate run, his foreign policy was driven by a desire to invoke what seemed like misplaced revenge.
When I finally realized he didn’t actually care about civilians and peace, everything I had previously ignored or excused made it obvious to who he was and that I was on the wrong side.
Jordan Domingue’s profile on X reads more like that of a Republican: USMC Combat Veteran – International Security Professional – Bjj Brown Belt – Lockheed Liberal – Anti DSA – Democratic Field Organizer – Rugged Individual
Jordan Domingue
After leaving Abul’s campaign, Jordan Domingue became the founder of Democrats for Mike Rogers.
Domingue uses the Dems for Mike Rogers X account to expose the truth about El-Sayed’s support for Hezbollah and Hamas.
Abdul El-Sayed wants to…
Send our money overseas to UNRWA, whose employees participated in the October 7th terrorist attacks, raping and murdering Israeli women and children.
While the mainstream media would like everyone to believe El-Sayed is tied for the lead in Michigan, Democrats for Mike Rogers signs are appearing everywhere in a very liberal neighborhood near my home in Michigan.
I live in a very liberal southeastern MI neighborhood.
I am shocked by the number of @DemsForMike (Democrats for Mike Rogers) & Mike Rogers signs in front yards everywhere!
We’ve selected just a few of Jordan’s tweets to give voters some insight into the real Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed. Our hope is that the former staffer’s messaging about why he quit Abdul’s campaign will provide some clarity about Michigan’s Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate from the perspective of an insider.
His management pushed multiple staff to tears—He acted like an entitled mobster
On September 17th he wrote, I’ll share insight as the campaign staff member who has to this day, had the most 1:1 time with him. The first person to see him in the morning and the last to see him at night. Some average of 6-7 days a week, 12-14 hr days, 50,000+ miles, hundreds of Harribo Halal Happy Colas, and so much more.
Abdul loves this Shakespeare quote and would say it almost daily when I worked for him. “Past is prologue.”
Though he doesn’t adhere to it, I like the question it asks. Who are we when no one is looking? Of all the opposition research on Abdul, the Mount Sinai lawsuit has been the most accurate from my experience at highlighting his character.As a 30-year-old leapfrogging into a job he was inexperienced for and only got through connections, the profile in the lawsuit is revealing.
Now I’m far from blameless, and will reflect for years on how I let myself be captured by loyalty and personality. When he acted liked an entitled mobster to elected officials in 2017-2018, I excused it as justified outsider earning their place.When he would say one thing to one group and another thing to a different group hours later, I considered it just the norm or “strategic ambiguity” as he calls it. When his management pushed multiple staff to tears and dangerous breaking points, in addition to them, I considered his stress.
I think documents like the Mount Sinai lawsuit tell the story of who he is, just as the Detroit News highlights who he wants you to forget. Past is absolutely prologue.

Jordan says he doesn’t believe Abdul actually hated animals; he just didn’t think they were worthy of being properly cared for.
Reminds me of the apathy he has for animals. I don’t think he hates them, but just sees them as blobs that exist. He would say this on several occasions “I have a weird relationship with animals, I don’t know what they are thinking.” I don’t know if it’s the dog that bit him as a… https://t.co/d8uUTJkiCxpic.twitter.com/RGXT7UouS6
Last month Abdul El-Sayed shared a campaign video of himself dancing to a Taylor Swift song where he appears to be tapping into his more feminine side. In the video, El-Sayed could be seen dancing like a teenage girl at a Swift concert, which sparked a lot of comments on social media questioning his masculinity. At around the same time, a “Blue’s Clues” themed campaign video was released, showing El-Sayed dancing and dressed as the very effeminate main character in the show, “Steve,” which seemed to trigger another uptick in social media users questioning his sexual preferences.
Watch:

Domingue Jordan had this to say about individuals questioning whether or not El-Sayed, is gay, which, of course, if true, would be the final nail in the coffin of the Sharia Law compliant Senate candidate’s campaign.
“A lot of people are saying he might be gay, and I think that is inaccurate.”
Jordan shared his take on El-Sayed’s bizarre and often immature behavior:
This behavior is best explained by the guy who never grew past the high school locker room. His masculinity is a performance, and he has the maturity to match it.
One of the most disrespectful and immature forms this was shown throughout my two years with him, was his love of farting. He would openly do so without warning or embarrassment as his form of stand-up comedy. To this day for him, the act of farting is easily one of the funniest things a person can do.

He repeatedly lies about his record of public service
Last week, Michigan reporter James Dixon shared a post about Abdul El-Sayed that questioned why he’s not telling the truth about his less than 3 years of public service, Dominque confirmed the terror-sponsored U.S. Senate candidate was indeed lying to prop up his phony image:
On the trail he likes to say he has “10 years of public service experience.” I knew that was a lie while working for him, but I also was surprised he would say it. Not because it was a lie, but because 10 years of public service work experience at 41 was embarrassing to me.
Using this as a way to credential yourself for the U.S. Senate, as someone who didn’t work a real job until 31 was deeply out of touch. I started working in lawn care everyday after school and during long summer days when I was 8 or so years old.

Democrats like El-Sayed put wokeness before the needs of everyday Americans
Losing the former combat Marine couldn’t have been easy for El-Sayed. Domingue seems to have his finger on the pulse of the Michigan voter and unlike Democrat leaders in Michigan, he isn’t so blinded by his hatred for those who don’t agree with him that he’s unable to make an honest assessment of his political opposition.
The former top aide for El-Sayed explains how woke Democrats no longer understand the working-class man and woman and why they now vote for Republicans.
A point that too many democrats don’t understand as they cling to death on “affordability”, and completely misunderstand the culture wars. People who work for a living. People whose labor is taxing on their body. People who have dirt or sometimes blood under their fingernails at the end of the 12hr day.
These people don’t trust the Democratic Party. They know that gas will still be high under the Democratic Party, because of climate initiatives instead of war. They know their economic situation won’t improve. They are red voters and will stay red voters because they know at least things won’t get weird again.
Watch the video Jordan is referring to in his post on “X,”—you won’t be disappointed.

A large number of political commentators have remarked about El-Sayed’s small stature and wondered out loud if he suffers from “short man syndrome.” Jordan addresses this issue in response to a compilation of clips where El-Sayed plays the “tough guy.”
Honestly was always one of the most annoying things about working closely with him. Most of these stories are fake. Funny thing is that they are a new feature, likely consultant crafted. He wasn’t like this in 2017-2018. Took him grappling once and he said he bruised a rib. That was a lie to not go again.
Abdul is lvy league and lacrosse to his core. If I could pass on one thing for anyone interviewing him, it is to look past the cartoonishly fake masculinity, and press on with hard questions/follow ups/rebuttals. He’s not going to hurt you, in fact he’s more likely to say you were aggressive or mean.
Abdul is a coward pretending to be a bully
Dominque warns anyone in the media interviewing him to ignore the tough guy act who doesn’t want to talk about Palestine.
To anyone in media interviewing him. Don’t let the appearance of toughness and his slightly antagonistic filibusters bully you. After he does his stunt just get to your questions. He will fold, and transition into the victim built on grievance, which is truly all he is.
Other Arabs/Muslims understand this, and put him in check all the time. What I find frustrating though is the man wants to be a U.S. Senator, made Israel – Palestine a core part of his primary, even based the conflict as the catalyst of his motivation to run. Yet wants to now not talk about it.

The “Manufactured Man”—How He and his family have a recorded history of disrespect for law enforcement
On July 28, El-Sayed was endorsed by the Wayne County Deputy Sheriff’s Association (a union). Although El-Sayed’s campaign video could certainly make you believe otherwise, the endorsement if from the deputies’ association, not the Wayne County sheriff as an office, and not a statewide deputies’ endorsement. The union claims it represents hundreds of Wayne County deputy sheriffs who handle court security, emergency response, and community outreach.
In a Sept 22 post on X, the former El-Sayed aide and confidante, has this to say about Abdul’s relationship and disrespect for law enforcement and the truth behind this phony campaign video,
A manufactured man. They even have the shot of him pretending to be “getting his kit” ( kit = weapons, plates, etc) out of the trunk. It’s meant to invoke he has worked in law enforcement or in protection industry. That isn’t the only clip or article covering another issue, in which he is using to lie as if it was law enforcement or crime related. I have a strong suspicion that this ad only stays on YouTube and doesn’t come to this platform.
It’s also interesting that the very deputies/sheriff’s office of wayne county (he doesn’t use the county in order to pretend it’s broadly statewide) that endorsed him, did so because they worked with at same county. This is how it was described to me gleefully. It wasn’t a serious endorsement meeting.They are personal friends, and it didn’t even include policy, awareness of his defund comments, philosohy on crime, and was conducted without meeting with other primary candidates. Suspiciously this support was quiet, and due to fear of leftist anti cop backlash.
Watch:
Domingue continues to expose the U.S. Senate candidate who, together with his family, despises law enforcement:
One of his biggest vulnerabilities has been crime and law enforcement given past comments. Additionally his half sister is charged with assault on law enforcement. However more pressing is a very recent murder in Detroit that likely will cause a big conversation on crime.
Currently Abdul and other leftist are having a moment where they have to hide or lie about their support of defunding the police, ending cash bail, emptying the jails or whatever mythical elitist critical theory nonsense they came up with to crime. The very policy positions that kill members of the working class.
If Abdul were an honest man, he would just say he was wrong. Say he is here to listen and learn. Instead we get this weird cosplaying chamelon. I hope @MIPOAM (Police Officers Association of Michigan), loudly highlight this chameleon candidate.
And this is where we will end this eye-opening expose on the real Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed. “If Abdul were an honest man…”
After working with him for several years, Jordan Dominque made the decision to tell the truth about the dangerous and deceitful “manufactured man.” We are grateful to him for his courage and his willingness to share what he knows about the man who wants to become the next U.S. Senator from Michigan.
Shouldn’t every Michigan voter, regardless of party or religious beliefs, be concerned about a man who bullies his staff, lies incessantly to the media, sympathizes with terrorists and accepts money from terror groups? Are voters okay with El-Sayed buddying up to radical lawmakers like Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar, who put the interests of Hamas before those of their constituents? And finally, isn’t the whole purpose of becoming a “public servant” to serve your constituents and not to become a U.S. Senator because you’re hungry for power?
President Donald Trump’s Justice Department is taking a fresh look at allegations of misconduct by prosecutors involved in the Watergate investigation that brought down President Richard Nixon more than half a century ago.
Former Nixon White House aide Geoff Shepard recently delivered a two-hour presentation to the DOJ’s Office of Professional Responsibility outlining his case that Nixon and other Watergate defendants were denied fair treatment.
The 78-page presentation, titled “Watergate as Lawfare,” alleged that special prosecutors Archibald Cox and Leon Jaworski improperly communicated with judges and withheld evidence from defendants.
Shepard previously sought a DOJ investigation into his allegations, but the Biden regime declined to pursue it further back in 2022.
A DOJ spokesman stressed that the latest development does not yet constitute a formal investigation.
“Given his expertise and scholarship on Watergate, he was recently invited to give a presentation,” the spokesman said.

The reassessment comes amid growing interest among Republicans in challenging the conventional account of Nixon’s downfall.
Vice President J.D. Vance drew a direct comparison between Nixon and Trump during an appearance at the Nixon Presidential Library in June.
“If Watergate happened tomorrow, it would be like a 12-hour news story,” Vance said, arguing that it was “crazy” that the scandal destroyed Nixon’s presidency.
Vance added that the deep state targeting of Nixon was comparable to to the efforts to undermine President Trump during his first administration.
Rep. Riley Moore (R-WV) went further Thursday, declaring at the Nixon Foundation’s Grand Strategy Summit that Nixon was “absolutely couped out of office” and “framed.”
“We now know more about the deep state and its power and ability to literally change things at the top,” Moore said.

Nixon resigned in August 1974 after the House Judiciary Committee approved articles of impeachment over obstruction of justice, abuse of power and contempt of Congress stemming from Watergate.
In the decades after his resignation, Nixon’s presidency underwent significant historical reappraisal, with more attention paid to his foreign policy achievements and broader record in office.
Whether the DOJ’s renewed examination develops into a full investigation remains unclear.
