00:00:00.000 Are you prepared for the Islamic invasion? 0.99
00:00:02.000 Well, Democrats sure are. 0.99
00:00:04.000 It turns out that all the same people who called Donald Trump a Nazi are perfectly happy hanging out with Muslim Brotherhood fellow travelers, terrorism defenders, blatant Jew haters. 0.97
00:00:12.000 Hell, they'll put one in the Senate if they can, and they will call you an Islamophobe for noticing. 0.73
00:00:17.000 That's the magic of Abdul El Sayed, the newest face of the Democratic Party, a full-scale terrorism defender, an advocate for socialism, and now the Democratic nominee for Senate in Michigan.
00:00:26.000 And all the rest of the Democrats are falling right into line.
00:00:29.000 They couldn't be more enthused.
00:00:30.000 And of course, it's not just El Sayed.
00:00:32.000 It's Armandani in New York.
00:00:34.000 Elhan Omar in Minnesota, Michigan Tlaib in Michigan, and Adam Homali in New Jersey. 0.87
00:00:38.000 In fact, it's the entire Muslim Brotherhood. 0.76
00:00:40.000 Yesterday, every Senate Democrat walked out on a hearing investigating the evils of that terrorist group because the terrorist supporters are now part of the tent. 0.88
00:00:47.000 We'll get to all of that and more.
00:00:49.000 This is The Ben Shapiro Show.
00:00:57.000 So, just a quick recap for people who have not been following the Abdul Rahman El Sayed saga playing out in Michigan.
00:01:04.000 So, Abdul Rahman El Sayed, I'm saying his name properly because I've been told that if I don't, this makes me an Islamophobe.
00:01:10.000 So, I can, in fact, pronounce his name Abdul Rahman El Sayed.
00:01:13.000 This is the guy that Democrats chose for the Senate in Michigan.
00:01:18.000 This is who they chose.
00:01:19.000 And I want to reintroduce you to Abdul Rahman El Sayed.
00:01:24.000 Because if you don't know who he is, you should know who he is.
00:01:26.000 Because Democrats would love for this guy to run for.
00:01:28.000 The Senate.
00:01:29.000 And then maybe for president. 0.99
00:01:30.000 He is American born after all, because we decided it would be an amazing idea to import a crap load of people who hate America. 0.97
00:01:35.000 In any case, flashback. 0.93
00:01:38.000 This is a couple months ago. 0.93
00:01:39.000 There was a radical Muslim from Dearborn, Michigan who decided to drive a car directly into a Jewish preschool.
00:01:45.000 And El Sayed was asked about this.
00:01:47.000 He was standing alongside terrorism supporter Hassan Piker at the time, which was somewhat uncomfortable, or you might have thought it was uncomfortable. 0.60
00:01:53.000 And El Sayed's answer as to his feelings on, you know, a Muslim trying to murder a bunch of Jewish small toddlers.
00:02:00.000 For the crime of being Jewish, was that, you know, it's basically the same as when Israel blows up a member of Hezbollah in Lebanon because hurt people hurt people. 0.52
00:02:07.000 This is who Democrats want in the United States Senate, like not the Middle Eastern Parliament, the United States Senate.
00:02:16.000 You know, when it comes to Temple Israel, I was profoundly shaken.
00:02:22.000 Many of my friends growing up worshiped the Temple Israel.
00:02:25.000 Nothing justifies the heinous attack that we saw on Temple Israel.
00:02:30.000 And, you know, I stand in solidarity with my Jewish sisters and brothers for an America.
00:02:35.000 Where that kind of thing never happens again. 0.99
00:02:37.000 I also think it's just critical for us to understand that her people do hurt people.
00:02:42.000 And the circumstances happening 6,000 miles away can affect the lives that we live here. 0.64
00:02:48.000 And if we stand against violence, we got to stand against violence, all violence.
00:02:53.000 So you see, what happened in this particular case is that the attempted murderer from Dearborn, his brother, was a member of Hezbollah who was killed by the IDF in Lebanon.
00:03:01.000 He decided it would be a great idea to go murder Jewish school children in Detroit.
00:03:05.000 And El Sayed said, these are the same thing. 0.99
00:03:08.000 This is the person they want.
00:03:10.000 And of course, you'll recall because we played it a few times Abdurrahman El Sayed explaining on a tape that he didn't know was going to be made public that he would not, in fact, talk about how the death of Ayatollah Khamenei was good because too many people in Dearborn would be sad about that. 0.60
00:03:25.000 By the way, Dearborn, of course, a massive Muslim enclave in Michigan.
00:03:30.000 Muslims in Dearborn, according to Vox, voted at about 90% for El Sayed, which is the entire political strategy.
00:03:36.000 I talked about this earlier this week. 0.67
00:03:38.000 The political strategy for Democrats is fine.
00:03:40.000 An incredibly radicalized, hard cohort of people to vote for a candidate like El Sayed and then build around that hardened cohort.
00:03:49.000 You got 40,000, 50,000 people going to vote for a guy. 0.93
00:03:51.000 Well, that's a pretty good solid base to build around so long as you are willing to ingest all of the poison that that group is spewing, which in this particular case is radical Islamic pro terror nonsense. 0.97
00:04:02.000 Here is Abdul El Sayed. 0.57
00:04:05.000 I also want to remind you guys that there are a lot of people in Dearborn who are sad today.
00:04:10.000 So, like, I just don't want to comment on Khomeini at all.
00:04:15.000 I don't think it's worth even touching that. 0.87
00:04:21.000 Because people in Dearborn are sad about the death of a mass murdering piece of human refuse like Ayatollah Khamenei. 0.86
00:04:27.000 They want this guy. 0.87
00:04:28.000 Again, this isn't really about the people in Dearborn.
00:04:30.000 I mean, I think we know what the people in Dearborn think.
00:04:32.000 This is about a Democratic Party, as we'll get to, that has decided that not only is this fine, it is praiseworthy.
00:04:37.000 It is part of the coalition now, it is a defining part of the coalition.
00:04:40.000 Abdul El Sayed has deleted a bunch of his old tweets.
00:04:44.000 One of those tweets happened 9 11 2021.
00:04:46.000 Today, I mourn the 3,000 lives, 6,000 injuries, and infrastructural devastation in New York City perpetrated ignorantly in the name of my faith.
00:04:46.000 Quote.
00:04:54.000 Again, so 9-11 and, you know, are responding to 9-11 the same.
00:05:06.000 This is the moral equivalence that terrorist supporters constantly do, always and forever. 0.61
00:05:12.000 What they will say is that, oh, I don't love Hamas, but I just gotta say, anybody who responds to Hamas is the same as Hamas.
00:05:17.000 Okay, that is just a defense of terrorism. 0.73
00:05:19.000 It is.
00:05:20.000 If you equate a murderer and the person trying to stop the murderer, You are de facto pro murderer.
00:05:26.000 That's how this works.
00:05:27.000 Here's Abdul Syed, again, saying this to CNN.
00:05:32.000 You said the Israeli government is evil.
00:05:34.000 Do you think they're just as evil as Hamas? 0.99
00:05:36.000 Yes, killing tens of thousands of people makes you pretty damn evil. 0.91
00:05:39.000 It's not how evil is this one versus that one. 0.99
00:05:41.000 Hamas, evil. 0.89
00:05:42.000 Israeli government, evil. 0.99
00:05:43.000 We could say both. 0.71
00:05:44.000 Is Netanyahu, in your view, a war criminal?
00:05:47.000 He's a war criminal.
00:05:47.000 Absolutely.
00:05:48.000 Do you not think he is?
00:05:49.000 When you conduct a genocide, you're a war criminal.
00:05:53.000 Okay, I mean, this is, again, Democrats want this guy.
00:05:56.000 They're mobilizing behind this guy.
00:05:56.000 They want this guy.
00:05:58.000 It's not just about.
00:05:59.000 His politics with regard to terrorism.
00:06:00.000 Now, again, there are a lot of people today.
00:06:02.000 Why did APAC spend so much money to try to defeat him?
00:06:05.000 Maybe it's because he's a radical pro terrorism Islamist.
00:06:08.000 Maybe that would be the reason. 0.50
00:06:10.000 I think the better question would be why didn't anybody else put up money? 0.98
00:06:13.000 And I would hope that now that it's a Republican versus Democrat race, now that you have a normie like Mike Rogers running, I'd hope money pours into Michigan to stop Abdul El Sayed. 0.98
00:06:20.000 And then it doesn't have to come from American Jews who are concerned just about El Sayed being a radical anti Semitic piece of trash. 0.94
00:06:28.000 Again, El Sayed is not just about the Middle East. 0.99
00:06:31.000 El Sayed. Obviously is all the things.
00:06:34.000 He's all the things.
00:06:36.000 In September of 2021, he put out a tweet, quote, blaming horses for the dudes riding them to whip Haitian refugees is like blaming Haiti for the fact they're coming.
00:06:44.000 How about asking how our policies decimate Caribbean and Central American and so many other countries and why we allow white supremacists to police our borders?
00:06:51.000 Again, he says that CBP are white supremacists and that every migrant wave is the responsibility of the United States.
00:07:00.000 Far left, Howard Zinn, Bernie Sanders nonsense.
00:07:03.000 Obviously.
00:07:05.000 He also erased thousands of old social media posts just a few weeks back, including a dozen tweets that championed defunding the police, describing the police as standing armies, and urging cities to divert money from law enforcement to social services.
00:07:21.000 Quote, the police have become standing armies we deploy against our own people.
00:07:26.000 He suggested that 83,000 black Americans die every year because of racism, and racism is a public health issue.
00:07:31.000 Again, this is who he is. 0.51
00:07:33.000 He is a radical, he is a member of the Red Green Alliance.
00:07:38.000 I've been talking about this incessantly for literally years.
00:07:41.000 For many, many years, actually.
00:07:42.000 The crossover between the radical Islamists who hate the West and want to see it ripped down and the radical commies who want to see the West ripped down for the same reason.
00:07:49.000 And you can see that coalition in action.
00:07:51.000 In just a second, we'll get to how Abdul El Sayed won.
00:07:55.000 It's a really, really interesting story, but it does speak to something true about the country.
00:08:00.000 We're headed for some rough times.
00:08:01.000 And when you are headed for rough times, financially or any other way, you just need to diversify.
00:08:06.000 See, markets move, policies change.
00:08:08.000 The question is, what doesn't?
00:08:09.000 Gold has remained part of the financial conversation for literally thousands of years.
00:08:13.000 I've diversified into precious metals for this reason.
00:08:15.000 And that's one reason people turn to Golden Crest Metals.
00:08:18.000 They're a boutique firm with transparent pricing, real people, not a call center.
00:08:21.000 They focus on widely recognized coins instead of private label products.

00:09:00.000 Text Ben to medals to get started.
00:09:02.000 So, how did El Sayed win? 0.99
00:09:03.000 The answer is he won rich white people and Muslims. 0.67
00:09:07.000 That was his dominant voting base. 0.64
00:09:09.000 Black voters did not like Abdul El Sayed. 0.98
00:09:11.000 Poor black voters did not like Abdul El Sayed. 0.99
00:09:13.000 Poor white voters did not like Abdul El Sayed. 0.99
00:09:16.000 They preferred Haley Stevens. 0.91
00:09:18.000 El Sayed was walking away with Hamtrack.
00:09:19.000 Who's walking away with Dearborn, and who's walking away with the richy rich areas that were voting in this Democratic primary?
00:09:27.000 Again, he only won the Democratic Senate nomination by 1%.
00:09:31.000 He won the highest income county in Michigan, Livingston County.
00:09:35.000 Haley Stevens won the lowest income county, Lake County.
00:09:40.000 Elsayed won the most educated county, Washtenaw County, by 24%.
00:09:46.000 According to Frank Luns, Elsayed won 58.4% of the vote in counties where at least 30% of adults have a college degree.
00:09:52.000 Haley Stevens won 51.4% of the vote in counties where less than 30% of adults went to college.
00:10:00.000 And as I say, El Sayed took at least 80% of the vote in Dearborn in the primary and probably 90% plus of the Muslim vote in Dearborn because not all of Dearborn is Muslim.
00:10:11.000 This is not a point that is being made just by me.
00:10:13.000 This is a point being made by Harry Anton. 0.81
00:10:15.000 But again, the new Democratic coalition is a combination of elitists and dispossessed minority groups who think that America ought to be ripped down to the studs.
00:10:29.000 In your navy blue, you've got Haley Stevens. 0.74
00:10:31.000 In your Columbia blue, you've got Abdullah Syed.
00:10:34.000 And what you see here is you see that Haley Stevens did particularly well in this corridor.
00:10:40.000 And what's in this corridor? 0.82
00:10:42.000 Well, there are a lot of working class voters and a lot of African American voters.
00:10:46.000 Abdullah Syed did very poorly amongst these groups in the primary.
00:10:51.000 It's going to be very interesting to see whether or not he can bring them into the tent, come the general election, bring those swing voters with them.
00:10:58.000 Because where Abdul Al Sayed did well, to be honest with you, we're really just college towns.
00:11:03.000 That's where he really ran up the score.
00:11:06.000 Okay, so what does this mean for the general election?
00:11:09.000 Well, it is certainly better for Republicans that Abdul Al Sayed is the nominee for the Democrats.
00:11:14.000 This is a point that President Trump was making on Truth Social.
00:11:16.000 He said, Great news for the Republican Party. 0.97
00:11:18.000 Al Sayed, a communist loser who hates Jews in Israel, is the projected winner in his race with the socialists. 0.97
00:11:23.000 As usual, the polls were way off on this one. 0.97
00:11:25.000 By the way, there is a fairly good theory that these were push polls, that a lot of these polls The polls were showing El Sayed up by like 13, 14 points.
00:11:32.000 That is a great way of demoralizing support for Haley Stevens. 0.60
00:11:35.000 Okay, but put that aside.
00:11:36.000 He says she was not expected to do nearly as well as she did. 0.96
00:11:38.000 Now the Democrats' crazy policies will only get worse.
00:11:41.000 According to the Calchee markets, the Democratic chances of retaining that Michigan Senate seat, remember, they've been in control of that Michigan Senate seat, now it's open, have been dropping fairly steadily since El Sayed was nominated.
00:11:56.000 As it became clear that he was the nominee, their shot has been dropping.
00:12:00.000 So, the calcium markets currently have El Sayed at 58% of people think that he's going to win.
00:12:06.000 43% of people think that Mike Rogers is going to win.
00:12:09.000 Rogers' numbers have just been rising at this point.
00:12:13.000 But again, the bigger issue here is that the Democratic Party has decided this is all totally fine with them. 0.53
00:12:17.000 In the same way that the Labor Party in Great Britain decided to just ingest from the well of Islamist anti Semitism and spew it back out under Jeremy Corbyn, the Democratic Party in America is doing exactly the same thing. 0.68
00:12:30.000 The new leaders of the Democratic Party are people like Abdul El Sayed and Tarim Amdani. 0.70
00:12:35.000 Here is Zoram Mamdani, you know, championing all of this, of course.
00:12:41.000 He ran a campaign where it was best described by his words of money out of politics, money in your pocket, Medicare for all.
00:12:51.000 And if those simple commitments and beliefs are what drives Representative Johnson to these kinds of conclusions, I think it shows you how deeply out of touch the Republican Party is with the concerns of working class Americans.
00:13:03.000 Because what we have seen is, despite him facing more than $60 million in outside spending, he was able to prevail with a focus on.
00:13:12.000 A cost of living crisis and the way in which healthcare is exceedingly out of reach for those who have helped to make this country what it is.
00:13:22.000 Man, the code switching is incredible.
00:13:23.000 Like the willingness to immediately just go back to sort of normal democratic rhetoric the minute that the cameras turn on for the normie democrat audience, for the Jon Stewarts of the world.
00:13:32.000 But then when you're on the campaign trail, you are talking like full scale radicalism.
00:13:37.000 So it's radical Islamist and communist in the sheets, and then traditional democrat in the streets is sort of the rule here.
00:13:45.000 Well, Elizabeth Warren couldn't be happier. 0.99
00:13:48.000 She was out there with Pramila Jayapal and Chris Van Hollen, the dumbest member of the United States Senate. 0.98
00:13:53.000 Maybe, maybe, her Maisie Hirono still exists as a human. 0.95
00:13:56.000 She says, Abdul El Sayed represents the leadership working families need.
00:14:00.000 Oh, you mean with his $700,000 salary and his Rolex?
00:14:04.000 Is that the working family leadership and his wife who doesn't accept insurance?
00:14:08.000 He's fighting to break the chokehold corporations have in our government so people can afford to put food on the table and visit the doctor. 0.85
00:14:13.000 Again, this is Democrats willing to fellow travel with the Islamists in order. 0.80
00:14:18.000 To promote what they think they can just draft off of the energy. 0.69
00:14:21.000 And they don't understand.
00:14:22.000 They're going to get eaten from the inside.
00:14:23.000 They will.
00:14:25.000 Gavin Newsom doing the same exact thing.
00:14:27.000 Congratulations, Abdul El Sayed, on a hard fought victory.
00:14:30.000 Trump and the GOP are trying everything to rig the rules and silence voters, but they can't stop a Democratic Party united around working people and accounts.
00:14:36.000 The working people did not vote for Abdul El Sayed.
00:14:39.000 They voted for Haley Stevens. 0.77
00:14:41.000 But again, they're trying to cram this square peg of radical Islamic communism into the round hole of sort of the traditional Democratic Party. 0.75
00:14:50.000 It's not going to work. 0.79
00:14:53.000 So, Senator John Fetterman, again, apparently the last rational human in the Democratic Party, says, Listen, I don't think it's my job to come together with somebody who thinks that America basically deserved 9 11.
00:15:03.000 Because, and he's speaking here of Al Sayed campaigning with Hassan Piker, who literally said that America deserved 9 11.
00:15:12.000 So, you think he could lose to Mike Rogers?
00:15:15.000 Oh, 100% that's possible, without a doubt.
00:15:18.000 I mean, the polling seems to indicate that it is in danger.
00:15:23.000 So, how should members of your party, the Democratic Party, Party come together to defeat the Republican candidate. 0.67
00:15:30.000 Yeah, well, I can't come together with someone if you are willing to embrace people that loves Hamas or that thinks America deserved 9 11. 0.96
00:15:41.000 Okay, so he is right about that. 0.63
00:15:43.000 But again, now the Democratic Party has decided that Fetterman is on the out.
00:15:48.000 And Fetterman, who won in a purple state.
00:15:51.000 Now, Elsa Ed may win, but he may also very well not win.
00:15:55.000 Fetterman did win.
00:15:56.000 In a very competitive race in Pennsylvania, and they're ready to go after him. 0.52
00:16:01.000 Listen, El Sayed sees Federman as his bete noir, of course, because Federman is pro Israel.
00:16:07.000 Federman has voted with the Democrats on every economic matter.
00:16:10.000 He just doesn't want to break the filibuster or destroy Israel. 0.97
00:16:13.000 And this is why El Sayed wants his head on a pike.
00:16:15.000 That is a direct quote. 0.61
00:16:19.000 That's the best thing about the way they're doing this if I win, you're just like, well, y'all came at me, so now I get to come at you.
00:16:25.000 And, you know, priming people like John Federman, I have no problem to do that.
00:16:28.000 Like, I'm looking forward to it.
00:16:29.000 And people are like, oh, we don't primary this, and I'm like, watch me do it.
00:16:32.000 You know what I mean?
00:16:33.000 Like, tell me why I should stop.
00:16:34.000 You know what I mean?
00:16:35.000 You're going to spend $60 million to beat me?
00:16:36.000 Okay, to play at that game.
00:16:37.000 At that game, you know what I mean. 0.96
00:16:39.000 Um, so you know, and then what happens is ideally you put one ogre on a pike, and then everyone else gets the message, and all of a sudden starts to sound a lot different. 0.97
00:16:53.000 Heads on pikes for Abdul Al Syed, weird. 0.81
00:16:55.000 Well, Jon Stewart then blamed Fetterman, it's of course because Jon Stewart again, all Jon Stewart cares about because he's such a partisan hack is the maintenance of the Democratic coalition.
00:17:05.000 And if it turns out that coalition includes people who, if they had a shot, And we were in a foreign country, would behead John Stewart, because John Stewart is a Jew, then it doesn't really matter to John Stewart. 0.82
00:17:17.000 I love John Stewart's willful ignorance about all of this. 0.87
00:17:20.000 It is pretty incredible. 1.00
00:17:21.000 Now, again, John Stewart is as Jewish as a ham sandwich. 0.85
00:17:23.000 I mean, he's the same thing as Bernie Sanders. 0.96
00:17:25.000 He doesn't practice Judaism.
00:17:26.000 He doesn't have any relationship with Judaism. 0.94
00:17:28.000 He doesn't care about Judaism. 0.88
00:17:29.000 He doesn't care about Israel. 0.88
00:17:30.000 He doesn't care about any Jewish principles.
00:17:31.000 He just puts on the Jew hat every so often so that he can claim to speak in the name of the Jews while excusing anti Semitism or Islamism.
00:17:38.000 But here he was going after John Fetterman.
00:17:41.000 Why are you blaming them when, in some ways, you could be blaming yourself and your colleagues?
00:17:47.000 It's not, well, I'm not blaming.
00:17:50.000 I'm describing here where we're at and what's happening now, too.
00:17:54.000 And I'm like, when we have people winning elections saying absurd kinds of positions that were absolutely toxic back in 2020 and saying, stop saying these kind of extreme things are not workable in the real world overall.
00:18:10.000 And don't we want to win?
00:18:12.000 Coming up. 0.80
00:18:13.000 We'll get to a bunch of Democrats, including supposedly Jewish Democrats making excuses for Hassan Piker and Abdul El Sayed. 0.96
00:18:21.000 They are utterly full of it. 0.93
00:18:23.000 Totally full of it.
00:18:24.000 But here is the thing.

00:19:29.000 Meanwhile, fellow born a Jew, but not actually a Jew, Bernie Sanders is out there saying that, you know, you have to ride.
00:19:36.000 You have to ride or die with people who say America deserved 9 11.
00:19:38.000 That's how you build a coalition, obviously.
00:19:43.000 Piker has said America deserved 9 11.
00:19:46.000 Are you comfortable with that association?
00:19:48.000 No, I am not. 0.99
00:19:49.000 I think that's a dumb statement. 0.88
00:19:51.000 On the other hand, he has a whole lot of followers and there's a lot of. 0.98
00:19:53.000 Things that he's saying that are making sense to a lot of people.
00:19:56.000 I think, you know, we have to get above cancel culture. 0.98
00:19:59.000 You know, when you're doing radio, whatever they do, podcasts three hours a day, you say dumb things.
00:20:04.000 I suspect if you go back over your career, there may be one or two things that you said that you may have regretted.
00:20:10.000 But I think what we have got to do is look at the totality of where people are coming from and go forward.
00:20:20.000 This is the moral leader of the Democratic Party at this point.
00:20:24.000 By the way, the person who he was talking about right there, Hassan Piker.
00:20:27.000 Piker literally says that everyone who doesn't vote for El Sayed, including Democrats, are Islamophobic, of course.
00:20:35.000 This is always the last resort, the cheap last resort of people who wish to take advantage of America's tolerance and our free systems in order to try to rip those things down.
00:20:43.000 This is a guy who literally wore the uniform of Chairman Mao, one of the great mass murderers in all of history.
00:20:49.000 Here he is lecturing Americans about Islamophobia. 1.00
00:20:51.000 Like, if you take this crap seriously, I'm sorry, but you're stupid. 1.00
00:20:54.000 You're so dumb if you take this person seriously. 1.00
00:20:57.000 You're a moron. 1.00
00:21:00.000 Like, everyone being like, Abdullah's a ton of work to do mending bridges. 1.00
00:21:04.000 Here's the take nuke for you, okay?
00:21:07.000 You are all. 0.99
00:21:08.000 Unbelievably Islamophobic pieces of okay. 1.00
00:21:12.000 You literally called the dude a terrorist for months on end and like called him a sexist, misogynist, terrorist, bad candidate, doesn't fake doctor when he has like two degrees. 0.99
00:21:27.000 And now you're gonna sit there and be like, Well, you know, you really gotta come to me now. 0.93
00:21:31.000 Like, what are you talking about?
00:21:32.000 Do you want to win or not?
00:21:33.000 Lock the in, okay.
00:21:34.000 I mean, again, hearing him fume about people saying that El Sayed is pro terrorism. 0.71
00:21:41.000 As the person who is pro terrorism campaigning next to El Sayed is really remarkable.
00:21:45.000 The biggest thing here is not Piker and it's not even El Sayed.
00:21:49.000 It is a Democratic Party that is willing to do literally anything to maintain its presence on the national stage, including fellow travel with people like El Sayed.
00:21:57.000 They are perfectly willing to do it.
00:21:59.000 And if that means playing the as a Jew card from David Axelrod, again, somebody who, like, okay, here's the thing I can do the as a Jew thing.
00:22:09.000 You know why?
00:22:09.000 Because I actually take my Judaism pretty damn seriously.
00:22:12.000 You know who doesn't? 0.99
00:22:13.000 David Axelrod or anyone who says this kind of crap, seriously. 0.98
00:22:18.000 We've talked about this before, and I speak as the son of a Jewish refugee, so issues of anti Semitism are very personal to me. 0.99
00:22:29.000 I think.
00:22:30.000 No, they're not.
00:22:30.000 No, they're not.
00:22:33.000 What you see in Michigan is an interest group spending $30 million.
00:22:40.000 She's got $64 million in television spending, and they're responsible for at least half of that.
00:22:48.000 And one of the issues, as Kristen mentioned, that people are grappling with is the power of money in our politics, the influence that interest groups have.
00:22:58.000 And I think it's a legitimate question.
00:23:03.000 Should essentially an agent of any foreign government, whether it's Israel or any other, be able to spend, or is it healthy for them to spend $30 million in a race like this to influence the outcome of that race?
00:23:18.000 I think that's a legitimate issue. 0.78
00:23:22.000 I mean, that's disgusting hysterical nonsense.
00:23:24.000 APAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, is all American contributors. 0.56
00:23:30.000 It is illegal for Israel to get involved in elections. 0.76
00:23:33.000 Illegal.
00:23:34.000 It turns out that Jews generally like Israel because they've been, you know, praying for its restoration for several thousand years, multiple times a day, actually. 1.00
00:23:43.000 Like it's a part of the religion. 0.62
00:23:45.000 So if a Jew does not watch to see a radical anti Semite who defends people who drive cars into Jewish school children take a seat in the Senate, And they contribute money to that effect.
00:23:55.000 That is not, in fact, foreign interference. 0.74
00:23:56.000 But again, these people will go to any length just to continue to maintain the so-called tent here.
00:24:02.000 So El Sayed is now out there lying because, again, the code switching.
00:24:05.000 So yesterday, he said that he was making a commitment to Jewish safety.
00:24:07.000 You remember Zoram Amdani did the same thing in New York and then Jews are getting stabbed on the streets of New York.
00:24:12.000 I don't believe you, sir.
00:24:13.000 I don't believe you, especially when I'm not going to be lectured on Judaism by Jon Stewart, David Axelrod, or Bernie Sanders, let alone Abdul El Sayed.
00:24:19.000 I'm not going to be lectured on what Judaism and Jewishness mean by Abdul El Sayed.
00:24:25.000 Give me a Break.
00:24:28.000 Here we go.
00:24:30.000 To my Jewish American sisters and brothers, one of the most indelible memories of this campaign will have been the opportunity to break bread with you at Seder, to worship with you at Seder.
00:24:43.000 You can't break bread at Seder, it's matzah.
00:24:45.000 To be embraced by you.
00:24:48.000 And listening to sisters and brothers who said, you know, I want to join this movement because AIPAC doesn't speak for me.
00:24:56.000 Because I understand that self determination for one people does not require.
00:25:02.000 The quenching of self determination for another people.
00:25:05.000 That unless all of us are free, none of us are free, I want to tell you the great gift that you've given me. 0.78
00:25:12.000 And to all of my sisters and brothers of the Jewish faith, or any faith at all, or no faith at all, I want you to know that my commitment to your safety, my commitment to Jewish safety, is the same commitment that I have to the safety of my own daughters. 0.92
00:25:29.000 I don't believe you. 0.99
00:25:32.000 I do not. 1.00
00:25:33.000 And I think that if you believe Abdullah Syed, you're a moron. 1.00
00:25:35.000 You're a complete and utter moron if you believe this, or you're a tool. 1.00
00:25:39.000 That's all. 1.00
00:25:41.000 Of course, in his victory speech, he says that actually his love for America, which does not exist, his love for America is about how America sucks and he wants to make it better.
00:25:47.000 He's obviously, when you love something, the thing you love most about it is how much you want to change it and destroy it. 0.97
00:25:53.000 Here's Abdullah Syed explaining that while he was able to make it in America, actually America is quite crappy.
00:25:59.000 And what love for America really is, is changing America wholesale.
00:26:05.000 I got to go to amazing public schools.
00:26:07.000 I got to go to an incredible public university.
00:26:09.000 I got my medical education paid for by the NIH.
00:26:14.000 And at the same time,
00:26:18.000 growing up just 15 minutes away from me, children whose families had been here far longer than mine, who never got those same opportunities.
00:26:29.000 America can do glorious things, but to love America isn't just to dress up in some colors and pretend that everything's fine.
00:26:39.000 To love America is to will America to do the hard work of being better.
00:26:47.000 If you love America, you're going to be America for all of her kids.
00:26:52.000 Well, I mean, he wants open borders.
00:26:54.000 He wants America to defund the police.
00:26:56.000 He would like for America to surrender every foreign war.
00:27:00.000 And he can't really describe what he likes about America, per se, other than the fact that it allows him to play it. 0.87
00:27:06.000 Now, again, El Sayed's entire shtick is that he's some sort of optimistic. 0.57
00:27:11.000 Figure, and when it goes out into the public, it's all about Medicare for all and all the rest.
00:27:14.000 It is all cover for the thing.
00:27:16.000 It's all cover for the thing.
00:27:18.000 And El Sayed was speaking to Stevens voters, and in the end, this is the thing.
00:27:22.000 He says, It's a big tent.
00:27:23.000 You can be a part of the tent.
00:27:24.000 I can be a part of the tent. 1.00
00:27:25.000 The tent is now Islamicized. 0.99
00:27:30.000 To the Stevens voters who may have felt the same way about you, that they're going to sit it out because they can't get behind you, you say what to them? 0.97
00:27:38.000 Hey, this is a big tent, and I know we might not agree on everything.
00:27:42.000 But I do hope that you agree with me that the things that bring us together are so much bigger than the things that might be dividing us.
00:27:50.000 Oh, isn't that nice?
00:27:51.000 I mean, like support for terrorism, because it doesn't divide them anymore. 0.96
00:27:54.000 All right, so the Muslim Brotherhood is a relatively secretive group here in the United States, spreading their poison pretty much everywhere. 0.96
00:28:01.000 They have a lot to hide. 0.99
00:28:02.000 But the truth is that we all make privacy a priority, some for really bad reasons, like the Muslim Brotherhood. 0.97
00:28:07.000 But for you, it turns out that your data is actually just your business. 0.96
00:28:12.000 Now, your ISP does have a record of every website, every search, every purchase that you've made, every article you've read.
00:28:17.000 You wouldn't want them to have that because privacy isn't about hiding things you're doing wrong.
00:28:21.000 It's about maintaining basic boundaries, right?
00:28:22.000 We lock our front door, we close the blinds.
00:28:25.000 What we do is just generally not anybody else's business, and the internet shouldn't be any different.
00:28:28.000 The reality is, your ISP can see the websites that you visit, even if you're using incognito mode.
00:28:33.000 In many countries, providers are required to retain records of online activity for years.
00:28:36.000 Here in the US, internet providers can legally sell certain browsing data to third parties, and this is why I continue to tell you about the use of ExpressVPN.
00:28:44.000 ExpressVPN encrypts your online activity before it reaches your internet provider.
00:28:48.000 That means your provider can't meaningfully see, record, share, or sell your browsing history because it never receives that information in a readable form to begin with.
00:28:54.000 The other reason is that it's incredibly easy to use.
00:28:56.000 One tap on your phone, laptop, tablet, desktop, you are now protected.
00:29:00.000 Because privacy should not be treated like suspicious behavior.
00:29:02.000 Privacy is normal.
00:29:04.000 Privacy is healthy.
00:29:05.000 Privacy is part of living in a free society.
00:29:07.000 So if you'd like to join me in fighting for the right to privacy, now would be the best time to do it.
00:29:10.000 ExpressVPN is now available at just $349 a month.
00:29:13.000 If you use my special link, you can get four extra months of service at expressvpn.com slash Ben.
00:29:18.000 That's EXPRESSVPN.com slash Ben for four extra months of service.
00:29:22.000 ExpressVPN.com slash Ben.
00:29:25.000 The most indicative thing about the Democratic Party, they did.
00:29:27.000 Over the course of the last 48 hours, it was not even in Michigan.
00:29:30.000 It was in Washington, D.C.
00:29:32.000 So the Senate Judiciary Committee held a hearing on the Muslim Brotherhood. 0.99
00:29:37.000 The Muslim Brotherhood is a terrorist group.
00:29:40.000 The Muslim Brotherhood is banned in multiple countries, including Egypt, where it was founded. 0.95
00:29:44.000 Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain, Austria, Russia, Kazakhstan, and Tajikistan have all banned the Muslim Brotherhood.
00:29:49.000 It should be banned in Qatar, and we should push for that, but we won't because too many people in the federal government are in the pay of Qatar. 0.60
00:29:55.000 Jordan dissolved the Muslim Brotherhood and enforced bans on all of its affiliated NGOs.
00:30:01.000 The UK, France, Sweden, Belgium, Denmark are all investigating the Muslim Brotherhood.
00:30:07.000 And the Muslim Brotherhood is a very, very active network in the United States. 0.74
00:30:11.000 The Hudson Institute says that Islamist groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood are engaged in a long term social engineering project. 0.93
00:30:17.000 The eventual Islamicization of the world is to be enacted via a bottom up process. 0.98
00:30:22.000 Initially, the individual is transformed into a true Muslim. 1.00
00:30:25.000 This Islamization of the individual leads that person to reject Western norms of pluralism, individual rights, and the secular rule of law. 1.00
00:30:31.000 Next, the individual's family is transformed, then the society, and then the state. 0.98
00:30:37.000 Hamas is a Muslim Brotherhood movement. 0.62
00:30:41.000 Also, it turns out that the Muslim Brotherhood is deeply, deeply intertwined with the founders of the Council on American Islamic Relations.
00:30:50.000 The Muslim Brotherhood identified the media as stronger than politics and highlighted the importance of training activists to present a view of groups associated with the Brotherhood that would be acceptable to Americans.
00:31:01.000 One of the founders of the Council on American Islamic Relations, which is constantly the group that is trotted out as the so called moderate Muslim voice, which it is not moderate at all, one of its founders explicitly suggested the need for infiltrating the American media outlets, universities, and research centers.
00:31:19.000 And again, many of these documents that were uncovered showing the Muslim Brotherhood's influence were uncovered in the so called Holy Land Five trial.
00:31:24.000 The Holy Land Foundation was a pseudo charitable organization that was funneling money to Muslim Brotherhood associated terror groups.
00:31:32.000 You'll remember that Zar Mamdani did a rap calling for the freedom of the Holy Land Five.
00:31:39.000 And they are connected to the Muslim American Society, established in 1993 by Brotherhood leaders, the Islamic Society of North America, established in 1981, the Muslim Students Association, the Holy Land Foundation.
00:31:51.000 CARE was established in 1994 by two activists directly linked to the Islamic Association for Palestine and the Muslim Brotherhood.
00:31:57.000 And of course, CARE was an unindicted co conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation case.
00:32:03.000 Okay, so there was a hearing yesterday in the Senate, and the Democrats universally said we will not attend because it might turn Islamophobic.
00:32:11.000 You see, to actually condemn radical Islamic terror groups would be Islamophobic.
00:32:17.000 Of course, they're going to say that because it turns out that Abdul El Sayed has ties with a bunch of Muslim Brotherhood associated groups.
00:32:24.000 Here's counterterrorism expert Kyle Schittler talking about El Sayed.
00:32:31.000 Does Abdul El Sayed's candidacy for senator in Michigan concern you?
00:32:36.000 Yes, sir, it does.
00:32:36.000 Why is that?
00:32:38.000 Well, to begin with, I look at the connections that his father in law, Chakaku Taib, has to Brotherhood linked groups.
00:32:45.000 This includes being the president at one time of CARE Michigan.
00:32:49.000 Also, his presence on the Islamic Society of North America Founders Committee, which is only for those most exclusively devoted to ISNA and provides significant amounts of funding.
00:33:00.000 There are other known Brotherhood members on that committee.
00:33:03.000 I would also look at El Said's ties to a group called MGAGE, which purports to be a Muslim sort of get out the vote or candidate recruitment organization, but it has close ties to CARE.
00:33:17.000 It was created by a former CARE member who at one time was on a terror watch list.
00:33:21.000 And he was also a consultant to convicted terrorist Samuel Arian.
00:33:27.000 So, again, these links are real.
00:33:29.000 They exist in the United States.
00:33:31.000 Schittler also talked about the Red Green Alliance and why it's been happening, and something we've been talking about on the show for quite a while.
00:33:40.000 Does the Muslim Brotherhood also partner with political groups such as the Democratic Socialists of America?
00:33:46.000 Yes, sir, they do.
00:33:48.000 Would you agree that this alliance between the Muslim Brotherhood and the DSA? Otherwise known as the Red Green Alliance, is based on a shared hatred of America, Israel, 0.74
00:34:03.000 Western civilization writ large, capitalism, and democracy. 0.85
00:34:09.000 Yes, sir, I would.
00:34:10.000 And I would go further as to say it's also united around a revolutionary objective advocating for the overthrow of the U.S. Constitution.
00:34:19.000 That is Mikhail Schittler.
00:34:20.000 He's the director and senior analyst for the Homeland Security and Counterterrorism Center at the Center for Security Policy.
00:34:25.000 Now, again, All the Democrats walked out of this.
00:34:27.000 They all walked out of this because they did not want to hear about the infiltration of an actual terrorist organization into the United States.
00:34:36.000 They didn't want to hear about it.
00:34:37.000 Well, because they're in bed with those organizations.
00:34:37.000 Why?
00:34:40.000 They're in bed with the acolytes of those organizations.
00:34:43.000 Here's Senator Ted Cruz going after the Democrats, who literally walked out because they don't want to hear that a vital cog in their wheel is, in fact, part of the problem.
00:34:54.000 This hearing is focused. 0.89
00:34:57.000 On Hidden in Plain Sight, confronting the Muslim Brotherhood Network in America. 0.67
00:35:04.000 You may notice that there are empty chairs on the Democrat side of the dais. 0.71
00:35:11.000 The American people should ask themselves why not a single member of the minority decided that a hearing on terrorism was worth their time.
00:35:23.000 It is an embarrassment and a disservice. 0.67
00:35:28.000 To the thousands of American victims of the Muslim Brotherhood, including most recently the dozens of Americans who died on October 7th at the hand of Gaza's Muslim Brotherhood branch, Hamas. 0.99
00:35:46.000 Again, the Red Green Alliance is quite real. 0.78
00:35:48.000 You know who used to talk about this a lot was Charlie Kirk.
00:35:50.000 Actually, right before he died, this is the thing he was talking about probably the most.
00:35:53.000 Here was Charlie shortly before his assassination.
00:35:57.000 The spiritual battle is coming to the West. 0.69
00:35:59.000 And the enemies are wokeism or Marxism combining with Islamism to go after what we call the American way of life. 0.80
00:36:07.000 And the American way of life is very simple. 0.61
00:36:09.000 I want to be able to get married, buy a home, have kids, allow them to ride their bike till the sun goes down, send them to a good school, have a low crime neighborhood. 1.00
00:36:20.000 Not to have my kid be taught the lesbian, gay, transgender garbage in their school. 1.00
00:36:27.000 While also, 1.00
00:36:30.000 while also, not having them have to hear the Muslim call to prayer five times a day.
00:36:37.000 That's important.
00:36:39.000 We want the American way of life.
00:36:44.000 Okay, so here's the thing.
00:36:46.000 We at Daily Wire actually are trying to fight this sort of stuff.
00:36:48.000 So we have a huge announcement, like a really, really big announcement, but like really, we're not launching a third party.
00:36:53.000 It's not one of those nonsense things.
00:36:54.000 The Daily Wire is rejoining the culture war in a massive way because we're saying the part no one will say in a way no one else will say it. 0.80
00:37:01.000 The radical leftists and the radical Muslims have clearly formed an alliance, and that alliance is ready to now infiltrate the Senate. 0.67
00:37:08.000 And people are afraid to talk about it. 0.93
00:37:09.000 In fact, pretty much everybody's afraid to talk about it.
00:37:11.000 But we also know that talking about it in podcasts and on the web, On X.
00:37:16.000 That's one thing.
00:37:17.000 Telling the story is a completely other thing.
00:37:19.000 So, for literally decades, Hollywood has not made a single major film saying that Islamic bad guys are, in fact, the bad guys.
00:37:28.000 Not one.
00:37:29.000 You cannot name one.
00:37:30.000 There are a bajillion movies at this point about Russian breakaway anarchist groups or white supremacists or North Koreans as the villains.
00:37:37.000 Not one major Hollywood film about the type of folks who have perpetrated the vast majority of terror attacks on planet Earth, who are currently migrating en masse to the West with the help of a compliant left, and now are infiltrating our institutions.
00:37:49.000 So, We made a film here at Daily Wire.
00:37:51.000 It's the biggest film we have ever made, by far. 0.98
00:37:55.000 It kicks ass. 0.96
00:37:56.000 It's fun. 1.00
00:37:57.000 More importantly, it also says the thing radical Islam is a threat to America, and we are morons if we let it take over. 1.00
00:38:04.000 We actually have to fight it. 1.00
00:38:05.000 Here's the trailer for what will easily be the most awesome, fun, controversial, hard hitting action movie in probably decades Run, Hide, Fight, Infidels. 1.00
00:38:20.000 Your country is beneath contempt. 1.00
00:38:23.000 We who love. Love and serve Allah fought back against the Americans and the Zionists from the scourge of secularism and the lands of unbelief.
00:38:40.000 Anyone gonna listen to Captain Saunders tomorrow?
00:38:41.000 The retired Delta Force soldier with the new book out. 0.95
00:38:45.000 He's the polar opposite of those brain dead protesters.
00:38:48.000 Given the current climate, should Clay Saunders even be allowed on campus?
00:38:52.000 Mr. Saunders is a close personal friend of Chancellor Friedman.
00:38:54.000 This is a decision I cannot flatter.
00:38:57.000 There are three ways. 1.00
00:38:58.000 Islam will conquer the West through immigration, through the wombs of our women, 1.00
00:39:08.000 and by using our nation's freedoms against us. 1.00
00:39:16.000 Are you paying attention?
00:39:23.000 Listen carefully.
00:39:28.000 With Satan, America will fall. 1.00
00:39:36.000 You are infidels. 1.00
00:39:38.000 The bodies of women are not pure and men's souls are unclean. 1.00
00:39:43.000 What makes them so dangerous? 1.00
00:39:45.000 Their goals are not in this life, but the next.
00:39:53.000 I got friends here, I can't just they listen to me!
00:39:56.000 In the law, we cannot run or hide from what is coming.
00:40:02.000 We have to fight.
00:40:04.000 I will be rewarded 10,000 times in the next life. 0.98
00:40:07.000 When you die, you're nothing. 0.92
00:40:10.000 Only one way to find out.
00:40:13.000 That's the American way.
00:40:26.000 So, September 16th, that is going to piss everybody off.
00:40:28.000 That trailer alone, you actually have to wait for them to like wait for it.
00:40:32.000 Like it says all of the things loudly. 1.00
00:40:36.000 The movie is what ISIS would do if they could here in America.
00:40:38.000 Now, people are going to say that it's Islamophobic, but here's the thing you should be ISIS phobic. 0.99
00:40:43.000 They're evil. 0.98
00:40:43.000 That is the whole point. 0.98
00:40:45.000 Jonathan Majors leads the cast. 0.87
00:40:46.000 Dallas Sonier produces radical jihadists lose, red blooded Americans win, and nobody apologizes for any of that. 0.90
00:40:52.000 Streaming on the Daily Wire starting September 16th. 0.97
00:40:56.000 Joining me on the lines to discuss all this is Ayan Hersey.
00:40:59.000 Ali is, of course, a world famous human rights activist, the author of multiple fantastic books, including Pray.
00:41:05.000 And, of course, she is Somali born.
00:41:08.000 She grew up Muslim.
00:41:09.000 She escaped to the West, and her story is really incredible.
00:41:12.000 But, Ayan, I wanted to ask you, obviously, about a couple of things in particular.
00:41:16.000 One is the selection by the Democratic Party of Abdul El Sayed, who is a radical Muslim, as their nominee for the Senate in Michigan.
00:41:25.000 This follows hard on Zoramamdani becoming mayor of New York.
00:41:27.000 There's an actual Former spokesperson for an Al Qaeda member who is running for Congress in New Jersey as a Democrat.
00:41:33.000 What do you make of the fact that the Democratic Party has decided that they can run with, and in fact are happy to run with, people who are incredibly radical in their perspectives and actually stand for terrorism?
00:41:46.000 Well, what I make of it is what I make also of European parties that I've been watching that are center left, that made the calculation that they could use the voter blokes that, for instance, the organized Muslim vote block that is brought in.
00:42:01.000 And that they could do this strategically and win elections.
00:42:05.000 For instance, they are pro open borders and the like.
00:42:08.000 But then over time, they realize that they have been infiltrated from within and their parties have been transformed. 0.75
00:42:15.000 So I see many moderate Democrats now looking at gas and seeing what Bernie Sanders has done to the party, but also what figures like Momdani and Abdul Said and other Islamist types have done to the party. 0.63
00:42:29.000 So, yeah, it's a sad day for America. 0.52
00:42:31.000 I mean, the Democratic Party is our major political party.
00:42:35.000 And so it's something to be terrified of that these two anti American collectivist ideologies have hijacked the Democratic Party. 0.52
00:42:48.000 Yeah, Ayan, I think that a lot of Americans thought that this was far away, that this sort of stuff was happening in Europe, because obviously the Islamic population in places like London or places like Paris is much lower than it is in the United States generally.
00:42:58.000 It's not particularly true in particular areas.
00:43:01.000 And I think one of the points you're making here is a point I've also made, which is enclaves matter.
00:43:05.000 It is not as though you need 20, 30% of your population to be Islamist. 0.65
00:43:09.000 What you do need is for 10% of your city to be a solid voting block in favor of Islam.
00:43:16.000 And you see that in New York.
00:43:18.000 You see a gigantic voting block in Dearborn, Michigan.
00:43:20.000 And if you can mobilize that and use that as sort of a hardcore for a base of support, then you can build around that.
00:43:27.000 Absolutely.
00:43:27.000 You can build around that.
00:43:28.000 And then, of course, we have had what, three or four decades of universities being corrupted from within.
00:43:34.000 So we now at least have a generation, maybe a generation and a half.
00:43:37.000 Who actually believe that communism works and haven't been given an alternative. 0.98
00:43:42.000 And they don't think that having an Islamist in office is such a big deal. 0.96
00:43:47.000 Let's not even go as far as Europe.
00:43:49.000 Let's go to Hamtrak in Michigan.
00:43:50.000 They came to power in 19, was it 2021, sorry?
00:43:56.000 And 0.52
00:43:58.000 through Yemeni, Bangladeshi voting blocs, go take a look at how they govern.
00:44:04.000 So, to many Americans, of course, I understand it's a very exotic thing when you talk about.
00:44:09.000 Radical Islam, and you talk about socialism, to them, it's not something tangible.
00:44:15.000 But there are enclaves within the United States of America that, if you're really interested, you could go and take a look.
00:44:22.000 So, Ayan, on a broader level, there's been a broad conversation about the compatibility of Islam overall with the West.
00:44:27.000 And I think the West has had a bit of trouble trying to determine what is Islam, what is radical Islam, what are all these modifiers?
00:44:34.000 Is it about Islam traditionally versus, you know, quote unquote, reform Muslims? 0.75
00:44:37.000 How many Muslims are capable of assimilation? 0.99
00:44:39.000 What percentage and all the rest? 0.94
00:44:41.000 What is your perspective on this as somebody who grew up in Islamic civilization and then moved to the West and saw the impact Islamic civilization was having on the West?
00:44:50.000 Yeah, there is a phenomenon called the Islamic movement, and this began about 100 years ago after the fall of the caliphate.
00:44:57.000 It was a group of people who responded to the fall of the caliphate by saying, We're not going to accept this, we're not going to accept any kind of Western model.
00:45:05.000 And it started out as a bunch of people talking about what next. 0.84
00:45:09.000 It led to the Muslim Brotherhood, and their ambition is not only to revive the caliphate in Muslim countries, but to Islamize the whole world. 0.90
00:45:17.000 And unfortunately, the West has made it very, very easy for them through this process of Immigration, and obviously, we have all of these freedoms where they can establish the infrastructure of mosques, Muslim centers, student organizations. 0.97
00:45:30.000 And if you do this long enough, because they run on a different clock, you can see the outcome of it. 0.78
00:45:36.000 The election of Mamdani in New York 10 years ago, people would say you have a hole in your head if you predicted something like that. 0.80
00:45:44.000 It's reality today. 0.85
00:45:46.000 El Sayed winning a Democratic primary for Senate. 0.92
00:45:52.000 You would have been told you're absolutely nuts, but it's happening. 0.92
00:45:56.000 What Americans are not watching is what Islamists are doing outside of the United States of America and the great leaps that they're making. 0.92
00:46:04.000 How do I distinguish Islam and Islamism? 0.96
00:46:08.000 I think it's much more productive to distinguish between Islam and Muslims.
00:46:13.000 Muslims are adherents, and a large number of them, and some do adhere and others don't.
00:46:19.000 But Islam has a political component, it has a social component, it's a total. 0.99
00:46:26.000 Recipe for how human beings ought to live with one another. 1.00
00:46:31.000 And there hasn't been any kind of reform. 0.89
00:46:34.000 I wrote a book in 2015 playing with the idea, saying here are the five things that should reform if you want Islam to become something more moderate, something milder, more westernized, and more friendly. 0.99
00:46:44.000 That is not going to happen because the people who call the shots are the people who run the Islamic movement. 0.89
00:46:51.000 So, you know, we're speaking about the Democratic Party and their willingness to embrace all of this. 1.00
00:46:54.000 We saw this with the Labour Party in Great Britain.
00:46:56.000 We've seen this with a wide variety of parties in France and Germany as well.
00:47:00.000 When you look at the extent to which the Democratic Party is ingesting this stuff whole, it is pretty astonishing. 0.88
00:47:05.000 Yesterday, there was supposed to be a Senate subcommittee hearing on the Muslim Brotherhood. 0.99
00:47:09.000 The Muslim Brotherhood is a terrorist group. 0.89
00:47:10.000 They're a terrorist group designated all over the Middle East and Europe. 0.99
00:47:13.000 They support other terrorist groups.
00:47:16.000 And yet, during the subcommittee hearing, every Democrat decided not to attend the subcommittee hearing. 0.79
00:47:21.000 They all decided they're going to walk out because they were afraid that it was going to turn into something, quote unquote, Islamophobic, which is astonishing because Honestly, if it was that easy to distinguish between Islam and the Muslim Brotherhood, they should be pretty easily able to do that in the room.
00:47:35.000 But it seems that what they're really afraid of is that many people would be labeled Muslim Brotherhood who are in fact in bed with the Muslim Brotherhood and that would become uncomfortable for them.
00:47:44.000 I think it's more than just mere discomfort.
00:47:46.000 Unfortunately, the Democratic Party over the years has invested and become invested in these voting blocs, these ethnic blocs.
00:47:55.000 And these ethnic blocs, obviously, people come into America as nationals of Yemen and Bangladesh and Pakistan and Somalia, et cetera. 0.61
00:48:03.000 But because the Muslim Brotherhood has established this infrastructure of mosques and schools and Muslim centers and so on, they've actually created a group of people with the identity, whose overarching identity is Muslim.
00:48:17.000 And they teach them what they need to know about America. 0.91
00:48:21.000 They separate them, they call that cocooning.
00:48:25.000 And then They use them as voting tools.
00:48:28.000 And the Democratic Party has come to rely.
00:48:30.000 You've seen this in Minnesota.
00:48:32.000 You've seen it in other parts of the country, and especially in purple states where vote margins are really thin.
00:48:40.000 And so I lay the responsibility on the leadership of the Democratic Party. 0.76
00:48:46.000 And they've put themselves in this situation where they know that they're dealing with an Islamist terrorist organization that, if they were given power, would bring about Sharia law. 0.86
00:48:57.000 And we've seen them do it again. 0.94
00:48:59.000 I point to Hamtrak in Michigan.
00:49:02.000 If they were to govern, that is how they would govern.
00:49:04.000 The Democratic Party knows that.
00:49:06.000 But the Democratic Party deluded themselves that they'd be able to control these people.
00:49:11.000 And now we're seeing with every empirical fact that they can't control them. 0.83
00:49:16.000 The socialists, Democrats, I call them the Islamo Maoists, have succeeded in corrupting the Democratic Party. 0.96
00:49:24.000 And the adults in the room, yeah, go find them. 1.00
00:49:29.000 On Tayyan Hersey Ali, you can check out her work.
00:49:32.000 In a wide variety of places, including the free press.
00:49:33.000 And of course, go check out her books as well.
00:49:35.000 Ayan, thanks so much for the time and the insight.
00:49:38.000 Thanks, Ben.
00:49:39.000 Lovely to speak to you.
00:49:41.000 What an amazing video you just watched.
