On Monday, Scott Johnson at Power Line Blog posted an article about a recent statement by Michigan Democrat Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed.
The article reports:
The story of the day is uncomfortably close to a literal “bomshell.” Alana Goodman has obtained a copy of what I call the Sad in Dearborn tapes. They derive from Michigan’s radical left-wing Democrat Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed. Alana’s story is “‘There Are a Lot of People in Dearborn Who Are Sad’: Democratic Senate Hopeful Abdul El-Sayed Said He Needed To Stay Silent on Khamenei Killing Because Many of Michigan’s Muslim Voters ‘Are Sad.’”
Alana reports:
Michigan’s left-wing Democratic Senate candidate, Abdul El-Sayed, told staffers he wanted to avoid making a public statement about the assassination of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei—or taking any public position on it at all—because “there are a lot of people in Dearborn who are sad” about his death, according to audio from a private campaign strategy call obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
But, ah, the uses of Jeffrey Epstein:
If reporters pressed him to take a position, he said, he would change the subject to Donald Trump’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. “I’m just gonna go straight to pedophilia, frankly,” El-Sayed said. “I’ll just be like, ‘Pedophile president decides that he doesn’t like the front page news, so he decides to take us into another war.’”
The article also notes that the El-Sayed campaign is trying to keep the recording suppressed.
The article concludes:
Here in one story we see the trouble with immigration that has transformed Dearborn into what it is today. We see the deep trouble with the Democratic Party today. We also see the Democrats’ use of Jeffrey Epstein for pretextual purposes. Cry Jeffrey Epstein!
Note the real purpose of mentioning Jeffrey Epstein.

Quotable quote: “‘I also want to remind you guys that there are a lot of people in Dearborn who are sad today. So, like, I just don’t want to comment on Khamenei at all. Like, I don’t think it’s worth even touching that,’ El-Sayed told his campaign team.”
Because assimilation is no longer a part of immigration, Dearborn would have no problem electing a candidate that supported Khamenei. It’s time to send people who choose not to assimilate to a country where they are more compatible with the local culture.
