The case has been marred by misinformation from the Black community, who have harassed the White teenagers and accused them of murder without any evidence.

🇺🇸☪️⚡️- ActBlue, the Democrats' fundraising PAC, shows DSA-aligned candidate Abdul El-Sayed’s receiving 47 donations from an 88-year-old woman by the name of Elizabeth Waffle and over $150,000 from Waffle to ActBlue in its entirety.

Elizabeth Waffle, who lives in rural Michigan, was shocked to hear of this during an interview, as she lives in a trailer after her home burned down, does not own a computer, and lives off a pension. She did say that she had donated to ActBlue and El-Sayed, but absolutely not the amount registered on ActBlue’s official filing.

El-Sayed is largely running a smear campaign against his Democratic opponent, Haley Stevens, for being ‘bought out’ by big and foreign interests and makes a show of refusing corporate PAC money. However, El-Sayed receives money from ActBlue, whose CEO invoked the Fifth Amendment 22 times in a Congressional hearing when pressed on ActBlue’s foreign contributions.
