Hugh Hewitt: Abdul El-Sayed Is Hasan Piker

Hugh Hewitt: Abdul El-Sayed Is Hasan Piker

Author: Salem Podcast Network August 21, 2026 Duration: 1:00

Abdul El-Sayed is Hasan Piker and Hasan Piker is Abdul El-Sayed.

That’s the bottom line for Michigan voters considering the race for the  open Senate seat in the upcoming election.

El-Sayed is the Democratic nominee. Piker is the progressive, regressive, transgressive Twitch streamer—a vulgar, hate-filled, racist “streamer,” an online ranter who hates Blacks, Whites, women with seemingly equal passion. He thinks the United States deserved 911, None of this is a hidden secret.

El-Sayed attached himself to Piker’s hip in order to win the Michigan Democratic primary. If El-Sayed somehow fools the Michigan electorate into sending him to D.C. in November, Piker will push aside Bernie Sanders and AOC as the key “kingmaker” in the Democratic Party.

El-Sayed is going to be facing GOP nominee Mike Rogers, a seven-term congressman from Michigan.

Working in Rogers’ favor, Michigan doesn’t want to become known for the craziest hater in the Senate since the Civil War.
