When he arrived at the facility, doctors discovered he was suffering from heat stroke and organ shock."He is in constant pain, can barely move, and has undergone two debridements. Also, he will soon need to undergo surgery for amputation, the extent is not yet known," the GoFundMe reads.During surgery, a surgeon found that tissue in Silers right leg was so severely damaged it was unlikely to fully heal, according to an update posted to the fundraiser.Siler is scheduled to have his right leg amputated above the knee on Aug. 31, according to FOX 10 Phoenix.ESPN ANALYST MATT MILLER SAYS HE UNDERWENT LIFE-SAVING AMPUTATION OF LEFT ARM AFTER CAR ACCIDENT"The plan now is to have an above-knee amputation. The Dr's feel he will overall heal faster and have better pain control this way," the fundraiser reads."We can all imagine that after any amputation, the road to recovery is long and hard...physically, mentally and emotionally," it continued.His wife, Vicki, has been traveling one-and-a-half-hours each way to be with her husband as she continuing to work to support the familys financial obligations. The family said the couple will also soon have to face medical bills to help with Silers recovery.The family is accepting donations to help with home renovations, home medical supplies, prosthetics and other added costs.Siler's daughter, Heather Crook, recalled an incident in which he dropped an 80-pound cinderblock on his foot but did not even take a Tylenol."He's hurting really bad," Crook told FOX 10. "He's the 'get up and walk it off' type.""So for him to holler out in pain its really hard to hear. Thats not the kind of person that he is," she added.

Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed was grilled in a fiery interview on "Jesse Watters Primetime" Monday on his progressive policy positions as he sparred over his high-stakes Senate race against former Republican congressman Mike Rogers.El-Sayed was challenged over his stated adherence to Sharia law, which was recently criticized by Vice President JD Vance, as well as previous remarks in which he linked efforts to eliminate Sharia law to White supremacy."Nobody is trying to push Sharia law on anyone else, just like I hope nobody is trying to push Canon law on anybody else, because we live in an America where you should have the freedom of your religion," he told host Jesse Watters.VANCE UNLOADS ON EL-SAYED OVER SHARIA REMARKS: THATS NOT MY GRANDPAS DEMOCRATIC PARTYEl-Sayed, who said he would "never" push his faith on someone else, argued that there is evidence proving the Trump administration has targeted him because he is Muslim."There's statistical evidence that the president and the vice president like to target me simply as a function of my faith," he said.The Democratic nominee condemned Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., over his proposed legislation that would prevent foreign nationals advocating for Sharia law from entering the U.S., including the No Sharia Act and Preserving a Sharia Free America Act."The idea, that you have somebody like Tommy Tuberville who barely was good at coaching football is out here trying to ban Sharia Law when there's less than 1% of the Muslim community in America, as if somehow Muslims are out here trying to push Sharia law, that seems to me to be deliberately targeting the Muslim Community, because they're different," he said.EL-SAYED'S AGENDA PUTS PERMANENTLY CHANGED AMERICA ON THE LINE IN MICHIGAN SENATE RACE, GOP FIREBRAND WARNSEl-Sayed and Watters later clashed over the Democratic nominees proposal to raise taxes on the wealthy."I also think we got to start taxing wealth for people who know have over $100 million. I mean at that point like what are gonna even do with more money?," El-Sayed said Wednesday on "The Ansari Podcast.""What are you going to do with more money? Whatever I want!" Watters said in response to El-Sayeds podcast remarks.El-Sayed, who has repeatedly railed against "the 1%" as a malign influence on American politics, defended his tax-the-wealthy stance, arguing it is aimed at improving the lives of average Americans, including in infrastructure and education.EL-SAYED MAY BE 'FULL-BLOWN COMMUNIST' DESPITE SOCIALIST DENIAL: TOP REPUBLICAN"The question ultimately is, Do you want to drive on good roads, or would you rather have a billionaire make a second billion? That's what Mike Rogers wants. That's why Donald Trump wants. Apparently, that's what you want. I think the people in Michigan want something different," he said.While El-Sayed has repeatedly criticized the influence of wealthy Americans on the campaign trail, he and his wife reported $686,069 in income in 2025, placing their household among Michigans top earners.LIZ PEEK: MICHIGAN CAN STOP THE SOCIALIST FEVER RAGE OR WATCH IT SWALLOW THE SENATEEl-Sayed accused Watters of "defending billionaires," to which the host responded, "No, I just think I have the right to the fruits of my own labor. That's America. It's not communist what you're talking about."El-Sayed countered that billionaires would remain financially secure even if they faced higher taxes."If we tax you at 7%, you're still going to make what? A cool $30 million off your billion dollars? I think that's okay, they're going to be okay, Jesse," he said.El-Sayed also took aim at Rogers, calling his opponent in Michigans Senate race a "beta" male who "thinks he is running against Hasan Piker."He accused Rogers of dodging interviews, though El-Sayed himself seemed to dodge questions during his "Jesse Watters Primetime" appearance about men in womens sports and him previous characterization of the NFL as racist.The Democratic Senate candidate also argued that considering reparations for Black Americans "shouldnt be a crazy thing" and that the U.S. shouldnt be fighting wars "we dont know how to get out of," referencing the Iran conflict.
