He said the quiet part out loud.
“There are a lot of people in Dearborn who are sad” about Ayatollah Khameini’s death.
We need mass deportations.

Alana Goodman at the Free Beacon:
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. 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.’” …. “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…. In response to a request for comment, the Free Beacon received a note from the campaign’s lawyers at the Sandler Reiff law firm in Washington, D.C. “I write to inform you that the audio recording that you base the below questions on was obtained without the campaign’s permission, and without knowledge that individuals were being recorded,” wrote David Mitrani, a partner at the firm. “The campaign is considering its legal options against the individual in question. Given these circumstances, the campaign expects that you will take this into account in determining whether to proceed with any reporting on this matter” (Free Beacon).
