While the war with Iran sadly still rages on in one form or another, it’s important to remember that we are now less than two months away from the midterm elections. And with that said, we must also remember that while it’s not uncommon for the party in power to either lose ground or actually lose its hold on Congress at this time, the fact is that this particular midterm election might actually now be setting the stage for a possible overturn in both Republican power and leadership come the presidential election in 2028 as well.

Why so…because not only have “Democrat Socialists” made major inroads not only into certain aspects of the general political discourse, but also into our newest generation of voters…as in those referred to as “Gen Z.” Again why so…because the aforementioned war with Iran has left a bad taste in their and in many Americans mouths as our economy, as it currently stands now, is surely not the economy Donald Trump promised us during his 2024 presidential campaign.

And it seems by all accounts to be “Gen Z”…the newest generation of young American voters…who have foolishly embraced those individuals now running as “Democrat Socialists,” a true oxymoron if ever there was one. And I believe this trend is mostly thanks to our public education system having turned what should have been an education into a leftist driven vehicle of indoctrination.

And it’s “Gen Z” who is not only helping to drive forward the discontent that many other frustrated Americans are still feeling in their pocketbook, but “Gen Z” who also sees socialism “trumping” (pun intended) capitalism itself. And they do so while at the same time believing…albeit erroneously…that socialism is the only means by which to help redefine how America is viewed on the world stage, especially now as the Iran war lingers on way longer than President Trump originally promised, “We the American People.”

But that’s not the worst of it for with many of the “Democrat Socialist” candidates obviously being anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian sorts…candidates now overwhelmingly being supported by “Gen Z”…it should not be all that unexpected or surprising that antisemitic rhetoric has once again re-entered the general political discourse. Sad indeed, as it’s courtesy of said candidates making hate a part of their anti-America, anti-Israel political platforms which the majority of indoctrinated “Gen Z” are now gravitating towards.

However, that rhetoric is in a more modern guise than the Jew-hatred of FDR who during WWII turned Jewish refugees begging for help away, and who knew about the “extermination camps” but chose not to intervene. Then there’s Richard M. Nixon whose privately tapped audio conversations with his staff do have him clearly making disparaging remarks about Jewish Americans loyalty to this country while at the same time voicing his personal dislike towards Jews in general. And let’s not forget Barack Hussein Obama…the man that I believe is “ground zero” of all the hatred in our country today…the man who made no attempt to hide his pro-islamic loyalties as witnessed by both his now infamous nuclear deal with Iran, the very country we now find ourselves at war with, along with his outward disdain for Israel, and especially for its leader Benjamin Netanyahu.

And with the political discourse of Jew hatred also being well embraced by the overly indoctrinated members of “Gen Z” what with their own version of anti-America, anti-capitalism, anti-Israel, and anti-Jewish sentiments…it’s no wonder that their majority aligns with the “Socialist Democrats” as many of those now running for office are muslim Americans, which in itself opens up an even more dangerous can of proverbial worms. Why so…because the majority of those muslim candidates running for office are neither loyal to this country nor to the Constitution, as witnessed by both their words spoken and their actions taken which are not unlike the words and actions of “Gen Z” supporting “Socialist Democrats.”

Simply, these folks when melded together are indeed one and the same… maybe different in upbringing yet united together in indoctrination and hatred for all our great “Republic” stands for as the United States has aligned herself with Israel, and against the so-called Palestinian cause.

In fact, a perfect example of this can be seen in muslim-American Dr. Abdul El-Sayed..a far-left progressive “Democrat Socialist,” and former Executive Director of the “Detroit Health Department”…who won Michigan’s Democrat August 4th primary, and who has now become the first muslim candidate to garner enough votes to secure a major-party Senate nomination.

And as expected, Abdul El-Sayed ran on a platform of “Medicare for all” (Democrats do so love promising freebies in exchange for votes)…abolishing I.C.E (have to ensure the “illegal” vote you know}… along with what’s called “regulated capitalism,” which is just another name for “socialism lite,” a new “Gen-Z” political staple. And the icing put on El-Sayed’s proverbial “Democrat Socialist” platform’s cake was his wanting to cut all U.S. military aid to our ally Israel…the forever “Jewish State of Israel”…something Palestinian supporting El-Sayed, along with many in“Gen-Z” also want to see happen.

And something else most of “Gen Z,” Abdul El-Sayed, and others like him have in common…and it really should come as no surprise to you…is that their primary endorsers and backers include the avowed socialist Senator Bernie Sanders, and loony-tune Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who now seems to have presidential ambitions of her own… ambitions that rival that of “word-salad” spewing, failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris.

But here let me say that if Abdul El-Sayed’s name sounds eerily or even just vaguely familiar beyond his recent Michigan primary win, it’s because back in 2018 El-Sayed lost his bid to become the Democrat nominee for Michigan governor…as in the now still Governor Gretchen Whitmer. Losing to Whitmer by well over 200,000 votes, did help send a message to Michiganders that while Michigan was a “blue state” the color “blue” was not yet deeply embedded enough for the voters to accept and/or vote for a practicing muslim as their next governor, especially one then rumored to have had more than just passing ties to the always infamous “Muslim Brotherhood.”*

Simply, I sounded the alarm about El-Sayed eight years ago, and do so again today, because not only did he again run for office…this time actually winning Michigan’s Democrat Senate nomination…but because as I started writing this article El-Sayed was on his way to Detroit to join the panel at the annual conference of the “Islamic Society of North America,” along with “The Young Turks” founder Cenk Uygur, and muslim cleric Zaid Shakir, all avowed both conspiracy doubters and theorists in regards to who and what caused 9/11, the same ideology shared by El-Sayed.

In fact, at this conference Shakir stated that, “9/11 has been used by both the government and a significant segment of the Christian Right in this country, along with their allies, to launch a war on Islam,” while El-Sayed used his time mostly to campaign for Senate while at the same time highlighting his perception of what he considered to be growing“anti-Muslim rhetoric” in America…just another deliberate instigator and perpetrator of hate I’d say by the man who removed from the internet over 100 incriminating anti-American tweets and videos before running in this past August’s primary.

And it’s this very type of hateful rhetoric being spewed by certain other candidates as well that seems to now attract young “Gen Z” voters who are either too naive or too altruistic to understand the harm these candidates are doing to our country and to our way of life. And if these folks keep winning elections jihad itself will indeed have succeeded in our country courtesy of the ballot box, without a single shot needing to be fired, nor a single bomb going boom.

In fact, none of this is really that unexpected, because ever since July 2004, when then Illinois State Senator Barack Hussein Obama, who at the time was also running for U.S. Senate, did sashay across the stage at the Democratic National Convention to deliver the keynote address which nominated John Kerry for president, I have continued raising the “red flag” about Obama, and his still growing influence on the minds of young voters. Why so…because many young voters still to this day are drawn to this man, and his continuing “transformation” ideas.

And again why so…because these young people have already been subjected to our public school’s“indoctrination”style of teaching, thus they are ripe for the Socialist Democrat’s imprinting of selective hate onto their “Gen Z” now of voting age minds. And said imprinting also includes“Gen Z” acceptance of the increasing number of muslim candidates trying to make inroads into our local, state, and federal government…a “transformation” of America in action.

Trouble indeed even though said “transformation” is being done at the ballot box and not through terrorist type actions…at least for now that is…what most of those in “Gen Z” who are voting for these muslim candidates…and know I am not saying that all muslim candidates hate this country or want to do her harm for they do not…but I am trying to draw attention to certain dubious pro-islam, anti-America, muslim candidates now running at midterm time.

And, I believe, the aforementioned Abdul El-Sayed is one such candidate…who has vocally, at one time or another via his words spoken and/or actions taken… including his not too long ago having “scrubbed”well over 100 videos and tweets from the internet that expressed his true opinions, and leftist beliefs…which included posts he surely did not want seen where he outwardly did support “defunding the police,” while very sarcastically describing our American police forces as being nothing but “standing armies;” and also where in regards to 9/11 he did state that, “Today, I mourn the 3K lives, 6K injuries, and infrastructural devastation in NYC, perpetuated ignorantly in the name of my faith. Tomorrow, I’ll mourn ~1M lives, millions of injuries, and infrastructural devastation in 3 countries, perpetuated ignorantly in the name of my country”…thus channeling the infamous,“some people did something” comment made by his fellow muslim buddy and endorser Rep. Ilhan Omar, (MN), thus showing himself to truly be the antithesis of our American culture, values, ideals, and governance.

So in closing let me say that when a growing in number of no longer being veiled antisemitism is thrown into the mix, it becomes obvious that when certain far left candidates start melding together with impressionable young and gullible minds of a growing in number “Gen Z,” we might actually be witnessing the catalyst needed that will help to destroy our beloved America from within. And that is the most dangerous thing of all. Case closed.
