The Numbers Are in on Sanctuary Fairfax County – and It's Worse Than Anyone Thought
[RedState] Fairfax County, Virginia, a suburb of Washington, D.C., has spent years earning its reputation as one of the commonwealth's most friendly jurisdictions for illegal aliens. Over the last few years, under the guidance of its Soros-fund commonwealth's attorney, Steve Descano, it has turned into a full-blown sanctuary city.

And, now, a congressional investigation is putting real numbers on the county's descent into sanctuary-lawlessness.

A new interim report released Tuesday by the House Judiciary Committee reveals that the Fairfax County Sheriff’s Office ignored at least 1,670 Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainers between the years 2023 and 2025, and released criminal illegal aliens back into the community rather than turning them over to ICE.

Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin got a peek at the committee's findings and broke them down on X:

Abdul El-Sayed Assures Black Voters He's Not Like The Other Arabs
[Daily Wire] The Democratic hopeful said that black people's "experience with somebody who looks like me is not a good one."

Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed said during a recent interview that some black Detroiters’ experiences with "somebody who looks like me" involve being "talked at from behind bulletproof glass," catcalled, and sold single cigarettes at gas stations and stores.

During an interview with "The Root" publisher Ashley Allison, El-Sayed said some black Detroiters’ "experience with somebody who looks like me is not a good one."
"I speak jive"
"You go into a gas station. You go to a party store. You’re being talked at from behind bulletproof glass," El-Sayed said. "If you’re a woman, you’re being catcalled. If you’re a kid, you’re being sold a loosie out back. Being denied a bathroom."

"I’ve always tried to be on the right side of that," he continued. "But I also understand that, like, if that’s your experience with somebody whose name is like mine, that leaves a terrible taste in your mouth."

The remarks were part of a broader conversation about El-Sayed’s efforts to connect his political outlook with the legacy of the civil rights movement. They come as he works to secure black support against Republican Mike Rogers in a race that could determine control of the Senate.

El-Sayed defeated Rep. Haley Stevens (D-MI) by less than a percentage point in the August Democratic primary. RealClearPollings’ average of polls conducted from late September through mid-October showed El-Sayed leading Rogers by under three points, a margin that leaves little room for a drop in Democratic turnout.

Rev. Charles Williams II, pastor of Detroit’s Historic King Solomon Baptist Church, warned CNN about the risks of weak turnout.

"If even a sliver of people don’t turn out, you run into a huge challenge in trying to get your candidate over that line," Williams said.

#3  'Pod Save America' hosts warn El-Sayed to tone down 'condescension' on Muslim Brotherhood questions

Former Obama staffers who host the "Pod Save America" podcast debated Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed’s handling of a recent question about his family’s alleged ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.

While Tommy Vietor and his co-hosts sympathized with El-Sayed over questions they considered "bigoted," Jon Favreau warned that El-Sayed must keep in mind that he is speaking not just to the questioner, but also to voters who may be concerned about the Muslim Brotherhood itself.

Concerns about alleged ties between El-Sayed's family and the Muslim Brotherhood emerged after the Washington Free Beacon reported on social media posts in which El-Sayed's half-sister, Eman Abdelhadi, described her family's history with the organization, including her and El-Sayed's mother.

At an October 17 town hall, El-Sayed bristled when an audience member asked whether he would disavow the Muslim Brotherhood. After disavowing the organization, El-Sayed turned the scrutiny back on the audience member, saying, "You’re asking the question because, implicitly, you assume that I’ll have dual loyalties, right? You assume that I wouldn’t disavow, or that I'll have some higher order allegiance than to the Constitution, correct? Tommy, is that what you imply?"

#5  The ciggies are just an indication of the type of person you see behind that glass. You'd have to go to back to Africa to see the whole truth.

#6  ^
Unfortunately, the moslem role in the slave trade, especially in east Africa, isn't in the textbooks much. Instead you have the scenes in "Roots" where the muslim was the slave.
