FIRST ON FOX: The communications director for Michigan’s controversial U.S. Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed has a history of anti-White social media posts, directing most of her vitriol towards White women.
Fox News Digital unearthed posts made by Roxie Richner in 2019 and 2020 on X, then called Twitter, where she directed most of her vitriol towards White women.
In the posts, some of which were made during the violent far-left riots after the death of George Floyd, she accused White woman of trying to get Black people killed and called them “failures.”
“I don’t care if it’s scary or makes you uncomfortable,” Richner posted on May 26, 2020, the day after Floyd died. “Black people are being murdered by the police and white women are making shit up trying to get Black people killed. snap [the f—] out of it and start taking action.”

She followed that post with another that said, “all white women are policy failures.”
On the same day, she said: “fellow white people: one of the most powerful anti-racist acts is having those tough conversations with your loved ones. I make it a point to speak with my family about dismantling white supremacy almost every day. people are willing to learn, but you HAVE to make the effort.”
On June 4, 2020, during the height of the rioting and destruction in Minneapolis, Minnesota, following Floyd’s death, Richner mocked White people who were concerned about the chaos and violence in their neighborhoods.

The day after the November 2020 presidential election, Richner responded to a video posted by an activist celebrating President Joe Biden’s win.
“”!!! POC youth really carried us [purple heart emoji] and let’s be very clear not ALL youth.. very disappointed in white youth and white women,” she said in the post.

In 2019, she chastised White people for defending then-candidate Joe Biden’s “racist a– comments.”
“‘[E]veryone said stuff like that back then’ is not at all an excuse for being straight-up racist. period,” the post said.
In another post, she mocked that idea that White Americans could ever face racial discrimination.

Other posts from Richner indicate that she’s been working with El-Sayed since at least 2018.
During that year, the progressive Democrat ran for governor, but finished second in the Democratic primary behind Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.
His platform then was similar to the one he is running on today, including calls to abolish U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and establish universal healthcare.

Beyond the controversies surrounding his top communications aide, El-Sayed is also no stranger to scandal and criticism.
He has defended his decision to campaign with extreme far-left social media influencer Hasan Piker, who at different points said “America deserved 9/11,” that his favorite flag is that of the terrorist group Hezbollah and equated Hamas with Israel.
Just last week, Mariam Odeh, a former El-Sayed staffer, was indicted along with seven others for alleged threats made against University of Michigan officials, private businesses and the Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Detroit related to the conflict in Gaza. It occurred as the defendants attempted to get the school to divest investments in Israeli-tied companies.
Odeh was charged with conspiracy to transmit threats in interstate and foreign commerce.
