Nancy Mace Called El-Sayed 'Jihad Adjacent.' Dave Smith, a Self-Described Right-Winger, Asked: 'Where's the Evidence of This?'
On Piers Morgan Uncensored's election-night panel, Rep. Nancy Mace said she has called Michigan Democrat Abdul El-Sayed 'jihad adjacent' because of his family and a student group. Podcaster Dave Smith, who said 'I'm an immigration restrictionist and I'm an America First, you know, right winger,' answered: 'if you're making allegations that these guys are secret jihadists, like, where's the evidence of this?' The two items she cited are in the public record: his half-sister's 2012 and 2013 posts about relatives in the Muslim Brotherhood, and his seat on the board of the University of Michigan's Muslim Students' Association from 2003 to 2007. Bridge Michigan's fact check found 'no evidence that El-Sayed has ties to the organization.' El-Sayed won Michigan's Senate seat that night. Every quote below is checked against the broadcast audio.

Nancy Mace Says She Has Been to the Israeli Border 'Where I Could Touch Libya.' Libya Does Not Border Israel
On Piers Morgan Uncensored's live election-night panel, Rep. Nancy Mace described a trip to Israel: 'I've been to the border where I could touch Libya or be right next to Syria.' Libya does not border Israel. Israel's land borders are with Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria, plus Gaza and the West Bank, and about 540 miles of Egypt lie between the two countries. Seconds later the host asked how she had 'made Egypt disappear,' she answered 'I did what?', and panelist Omar Baddar said she had her 'borders a little confused.' We found no correction from Mace as of Thursday morning. Every quote below is checked against the broadcast audio.
