Radical in Michigan
Wolverine State Nominates Democrat with Muslim Brotherhood Ties as U.S. Senate Candidate
Michigan's razor-thin Democratic Senate primary has transformed one of the nation's premier battleground states into the center of the 2026 midterm elections. Craig DeRoche, CEO of the Family Policy Alliance and former Speaker of the Michigan House of Representatives, says few people understand the state's political landscape better than those who have watched its dramatic ideological shift over the past two decades. He argues Abdul El-Sayed's history with the Muslim Brotherhood-subsidiary, the Muslim Students Association (MSA) is beyond alarming.
El-Sayed’s narrow victory is about far more than one Senate seat—it is a referendum on the values, priorities, and direction of both Michigan and the Democratic Party.

He is a frequent speaker and author on faith, culture, public policy, and civic engagement and has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Fox News, and Christianity Today.
