'Block her in': Sanders supporters swarm Illinois Democratic congressional candidate's car
Washington Examiner ^ | 2/26/20 | Anthony Leonardi

A group of Sen. Bernie Sanders supporters attempted to intimidate an Illinois Democratic congressional candidate into supporting the socialist's agenda.

The Vermont senator's supporters on Monday live-streamed their activity on social media while Betsy Dirksen Londrigan concluded a campaign appearance in Champaign, Illinois. Following the event, the group challenged Londrigan to debate Illinois socialist candidate Stefanie Smith.

"Where did she go?" one person in the video can be heard asking. "She's going out. Let's go."

The Sanders supporters then surrounded Londrigan's vehicle, telling each other to "block her in" and to "get by her window!"

One of the agitators can be heard aggressively asking Londrigan whether she will "support Medicare for All."

“Wow they really are little Bolsheviks aren’t they.”

They are indeed.

“Yes, they are so close they can taste it. If these people attain power the cattle cars will come out of retirement.”

If these people attain power there will be a civil war.

That guy leading the group appeared to be in his 40s. This is the communist faction of our country becoming emboldened. They think because they now own the Democrat Party, that it means they own the country.

One positive thing about the dumbing down of the educational system is that their chants are no longer impressive, because they have remained the same for 60 years now:

What do we want ______? When do we want it _____? Boring, just like most all of your causes.

AntiFa probably

I doubt that.

These are just "useful idiots", snowflakes, who have been emboldened by Antifa's ability to raise holy hell without fear of recrimination. Antifa will become ring-leaders of the disorder that will assuredly accompany the RAT convention. Just like the YIP(pies) like Hoffman, Rubin and others did in 68.
