The reporting

A neutral summary of the key facts most outlets agree on, drawn from reporting across the political spectrum.

Vice President JD Vance criticized Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed in a Fox News appearance Saturday, calling him “crazy” and saying he would be a “terrible senator” for Michigan. El-Sayed, a 41-year-old former public health official, defeated U.S. Rep. Haley Stevens in Michigan’s Democratic Senate primary. He also faced backlash over a resurfaced video saying Mackinac Island was not “the most American place in Michigan” because it bans cars, a policy in place since the 1890s.

Abdul El-Sayed’s comments about Mackinac Island were insulting toward a cherished Michigan destination. His attempt to defend those remarks only deepened the political damage.
