This is such stupid bullshit.

a campaign tactic designed to elicit an emotional response, rather than a reflection of an actual policy debate happening in American legislatures.

No it hasn’t.

It's because we're ignorant racists

Are you collaborating with Tommy on this line of reporting?

That’s a long stretch on realty of his stated loyalty to the constitution, as all people employed by the federal government do or should do.

Insanely shit headline, congrats

haven't watched cnn in years. catch me up on the lore here. when did you guys start aligning with fascists

You guys suck btw

Time to unfollow CNN - from now on they really will be oligarch talking points all the way.

You fucking hacks. If I go to a Trump event and demand that he disavow al-Qaeda, are you going print a story the next day saying that al-Qaeda has become a 'flashpoint' in Trump's campaign? Fuck off forever. You should be ashamed to call yourselves journalists.

Fuck off

I don't think Republicans are accusing him of dual loyalties, they're essentially accusing him of being a terrorist.

it's not a flashpoint but boy are y'all trying to turn it into one

So, CNN has decided to do the bidding of those racist attackers and make the Muslim Brotherhood and a possible affiliation the topic. What I take away is: El-Sayed proves a stern defender of the Constitution while his attackers do not.

You are a Christian nationalist with contempt for one of the few good parts of the US constitution

You guys write shitty ledes

flashpoint

Do better CNN!

You're trying to make it a flashpoint, I guess. No one except racists thinks he's sympathetic to terrorists.

Both siding this is wild. Who would trust leaking or giving these outlets scoops?!?

Has Scott Jennings renounced the Proud Boys? The KKK? Identity Europa? Sean Feucht? Atomwaffen Division? Aryan Nations?

Republican creeps are @cnn.com ‘s assignment editors.

🤮 how you have fallen

You shitheads are gutter bigots

What dogshit framing.

A republican plant makes some shit up and poof, now it's a "flashpoint" that needs to be both-sides. Embarrassing framing from CNN.

It's become an issue because of racists and a flashpoint because you give racists oxygen.

It’s not a flashpoint. It’s only in the news because you insist on covering bogus smears made by Republicans against El-Sayed.

But he is not and has never been a member of that group. CNN's new owners are part of the KKK?

Shut the fuck up

You guys cannot wait to legitimize bigotry. Get bent, CNN

That the world was made up of this Brotherhood of man For whatever that means And so I cry somethimes when I'm lying in bed Just to get it all out what's in my head And I'm, I am feeling a little peculiar So I wake in the morning and I step outside And I take deep breath and I get real high

In part because gullible or complicit media amplify racist right wing talking points.

pathetic vichy propaganda from the gutless billionaire press

A flashpoint? You could call it a canard.

racist dog whistles. how surprising.

Somehow the KKK never seems to be a “flashpoint”. I wonder why that is.

Republicans trying but getting absolutely obliterated in the process.

What a ridiculous headline. There is no Muslim Brotherhood issue. What there is, CNN, is Republucans using Islamophobic scare tactics. Your job is to report that.

Dear CNN: Stop trying to make Fetch happen.

Shut the fuck up you pieces of shit

Racist twaddle.

Oh, I forgot you are MAGA now.

Why is CNN pushing a MAGA narrative. Spend some time on corruption. Or maybe illegal tree cutting or ballrooms.

He's not wrong... fact... Republicans do not have a candidate that can honestly out wit El-Sayed... the guy is composed... so they are trying smeartactics. They rather lie and make stuff up. And be racist and spread fear.

“Has become”.

I remember when CNN was a new kid on the block They challenged the guano lies, deceptive and devotions of main stream media Full circle, they now post this weak nonsense of a story to disguise racism as valid debate It's all about the money, in USA it's always about the money

I cannot imagine how CNN is going to be worse under Ellison. I'm sure they will find a way.

Woah Bari Weiss took you over already? CNN is doing the same as 60 minutes and CBS? Pathetic. Lost another viewer. Bye bye

You left out the part where he has disavowed them

bsky.app/profile/dail... Try this one instead.

Translation: Because they have a weak, corrupt candidate and Dr. El Sayed is a strong candidate promoting popular policies, Republicans are trying to make the Muslim Brotherhood a flashpoint in Michigan's Senate to incite anti Muslum hate and fear.

do better @cnn.com

This is a really weak headline, CNN Do Better

Why? Because of tossers like you, cnn

Fuck you CNN

out. over. blocked. done. 🚫. sad.

on the one hand, one side is racist bigots making shit up on the other hand, the other side points out that racist bigots make shit up teach the controversy, I guess

This headline is a farce.

The only thing Republicans have are racist tropes. They can’t run on policy as the only policies they have are to benefit their billionaire pimps

See CNN could say that republican’s accusation of Abdul being a part of the Muslim brotherhood is false and he’s disavowed any association but they want to keep this bullshit going

Confession: I'm old enough to remember when El-Sayed tried to warn us about the risks of something he called "interethnic mating."

In all fairness to CNN, it's really hard to see out of those klan hoods, so it must've been hard to see how stupid they look getting basic facts wrong.

The Muslim Brotherhood isn't a "flashpoint"... ...it's a badly framed #strawman argument that El Sayed gracefully avoided... ...before rhetorically wiping the floor with "Tommy." Get it correct, @cnn.com

It's only a flashpoint because corpo media freaks are keeping it alive. It's racism and religious bigotry, stop making it a debate.
