The only source that mentions this is RAIR TV (a 2026-04-28 advocacy piece), which simply repeats the claim without any independent record, and the claimant's post is not evidence. No authoritative source confirms or disputes that the Hamtramck police posts such greetings, so the claim cannot be graded.
This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.
What was said
… This is not integration; this is replacement. The police department now openly caters to the Muslim community. Recruitment ads run in Arabic. Traffic law awareness signs are posted in Arabic. The department posts Eid Mubarak greetings with female officers wearing hijabs. "I wish you all Eid Mubarak, Eid al-Hamdbarak to all Muslims and the world. I just want to wish everyone a happy Eid, and obviously in the Hamtramk we speak many languages. We want to reach everyone. A Mubarak, assalamu alaikum. I think it is very good. …
The Gerry Callahan Show · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Supports. A RAIR TV piece states that the department posts 'Eid Mubarak' messages with officers in hijabs, but it is an advocacy outlet and offers no named sources, images, or department records.[4]
Context. Other sources on Hamtramck (opinion pieces and aggregator coverage) describe Arabic signage and Muslim officials but do not mention Eid greetings featuring hijab-wearing officers.[5][7]
Context. Fact-checkers in the set (Reuters, PolitiFact, Snopes, Full Fact) do not address this claim, so no authoritative body has weighed in either way.[1][2][3][6]
