Abdul El-Sayed’s Sister Criticized Fourth of July and Thanksgiving in Social Media Posts
The review follows criticism over her comments on October 7, race and anti-ICE protest arrest, including a post viewed more than 300,000 times.
- The University of Chicago announced an investigation into Assistant Professor Eman Abdelhadi following widespread circulation of her past social media posts on X.
- Right-Wing account Libs of TikTok, operated by Chaya Raichik, circulated screenshots of Abdelhadi's previous posts, with one compilation viewed over 300,000 times on the platform.
- Facing criticism for her remarks on the October 7 attacks, Abdelhadi was also arrested at an anti-ICE protest last year, where she was accused of spitting on an Illinois state trooper.
- It remains unclear what impact these controversies will have on Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed's bid against Republican Mike Rogers, though El-Sayed has not publicly engaged with the scrutiny.
- Although Abdelhadi was previously included on the Turning Point USA Professor Watchlist, this university-led investigation marks a significant escalation following her history of facing anonymous death threats throughout her academic career.
