Politico, which first reported on Harper’s allegation, said it had reached Nelson briefly but that he quickly ended the call and did not respond to subsequent messages seeking comment.ĬNN reached Harper by phone Wednesday, but he referred questions to Ganapathy. Nelson did not immediately respond to emails and telephone messages Wednesday afternoon.

But in an interview with CNN, his campaign spokesman Karthik Ganapathy identified Michigan businessman Linden Nelson as the person who offered the financial support. Harper did not name the donor in the post. Earlier this month, the House passed a GOP-led resolution to censure Tlaib over her comments. Tlaib, the only Palestinian-American member of Congress, has faced intense scrutiny in recent weeks over her criticism of the Israeli government’s military operations against Hamas. “I won’t be bossed, bullied, or bought,” he wrote. In a post on X, the actor-turned-politician said he rejected the donor’s offer.

Hill Harper, a Democratic candidate for a US Senate seat in Michigan, said a donor offered him $20 million in campaign support if he were to agree to end his Senate bid and instead mount a primary challenge against Rep.
