Democratic Senate nominee Dr. Abdul El-Sayed is facing pressure to disavow streamer Hasan Piker after Piker's controversial comments on U.S. terrorism. El-Sayed has rejected Piker's assertion that the U.S. has caused more terror than Al Qaeda, but Republicans and some Democrats are pushing for a stronger disavowal.
