Japan, take a hard look at what just happened in America.Michigan just elected Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed — the first Muslim senator in United States history.His parents came from Egypt on student visas in 1978.One generation later, their son is writing laws for 330 million Americans.Michigan’s Muslim population has roughly quadrupled since the 1990s, driven by waves of refugees from Lebanon, Iraq, Yemen, and Syria that Washington welcomed with open arms.Dearborn is now majority Arab. Hamtramck elected America’s first all-Muslim city council in 2021.When the demographics shift, the politics follow — and last night proved it.Five declared socialists won House seats. Texas — Texas — flipped blue for the first time in 30 years. The Democratic Socialists of America now have seven members in Congress.Biden’s wide-open border didn’t just let people in. It built a permanent voting bloc that will shape American policy for decades.Japan has spent 50 years being called “xenophobic” for protecting its borders. Every international editorial lectures Tokyo about opening up, accepting more refugees, loosening immigration.Last night is exactly why Japan shouldn’t listen.A nation that can’t control who comes in eventually loses control of where it’s going.
