An elected Democratic official in Michigan is rallying her community against U.S. Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed and claims those within the socialist rise of her party take Black voters for granted. "It doesn't change, it's just different slave owners," Democratic Michigan state Rep.
Karen Whitsett told Fox News Digital in reference to Democratic Party leaders who believe Black voters are a monolith who should only support left-wing candidates. She claimed that El-Sayed is not working in the best interest of Black Michiganders and that the far-left wing of her party is "more racist than the KKK." JASMINE CROCKETT WARNS DEMOCRATS ARE TOO FOCUSED ON WHITE VOTERS, IGNORING BLACK VOTERS Whitsett called out prominent Black voices known for rallying the community's vote for Democrats — specifically naming Al Sharpton and controversial Detroit pastor Horace Sheffield III, an El-Sayed campaign surrogate. She accused the pair of working to "keep the knee on [Black voters'] neck." Whitsett said Black voters are "waking up," and are "realizing the power of our vote." "You can see the serious divide of the crazy socialist far-left and especially the white women," Whitsett said.
"They they are the worst and the most racist that they're possibly ever could be. They're, I think, they're more racist than the KKK." "Are you trying to help the Black community or are you trying to kill it?" she rhetorically asked. "Are you trying to keep people stupid and ill informed or what?
Because right now I can't tell, right? Is this voter education or are you just trying to make sure you count your slaves on the plantation." MICHIGAN GOP LAWMAKER CASTS DOUBT ON EL-SAYED’S SOCIALIST DENIAL AS POLICIES TELL ANOTHER STORY: ‘SHARP ODDS’ El-Sayed's values aren't aligned with hers, Whitsett said, adding that she doesn't think he has the best interest of Black voters at heart, either. "I'm going to stand on Bible first and I'm going to stand on community first," she said.
I don't care about moving up within the Democratic Party. I don't care about making sure my pockets are better." El-Sayed's campaign did not return Fox News Digital's request for comment on Whitsett's criticsm of the candidate and the Democratic Party's leftward shift. Whitsett is not running for reelection, and will retire when her term expires at the end of the year.
"I always try to be a voice of reason, and I'm not a go along, get along. So, my whole thing is it has to make sense, and I am definitely family over party. God over party is of the utmost importance," she said.
