HAMMER: Abdul El-Sayed: Muslim Brotherhood puppet and grave national security threat
The Democratic Senate hopeful has deep personal ties to Sunni Islamist organization
Jan Crawford, CBS's chief legal correspondent, has apologized and deleted a social media post praising a man who asked Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed about the Muslim Brotherhood during a town hall. On Sunday, Crawford wrote on X: "Earlier, I tweeted a video from an Abdul El-Sayed town hall. I deleted that tweet because it was a violation of CBS News standards.
I apologize." The deleted post had thanked a man named Tommy and praised his three-minute response to El-Sayed, who said he would disavow the Muslim Brotherhood. El-Sayed responded that the question implied dual loyalties. Crawford's tweet generated backlash within CBS and among other news media members.
