Nithya Raman is a ‘recipe for disaster and danger’ who wants to eliminate cops and empty jails
California Post ^ | 2/09/26 | Benjamin Brown

Posted on 02/09/2026 6:49:59 AM PST by Libloather

Socialist extremist plans for Los Angeles have been exposed – just as their champion Nithya Raman launches her bid to be Mayor.

In a chilling document, the Democratic Socialists of America, of whom Raman is a member, detail their “Program for Los Angeles”, outlining a commitment to disarming police, ending fossil fuel use, closing jails, raising taxes and de-criminalizing drugs.

They also vehemently oppose the 2028 Olympics and even want to seize golf courses and convert the land to public housing.

Raman, one of three DSA members on LA City council, is an outspoken advocate of defunding the police and even voted against a law banning homeless camps 500ft from schools and daycare centers in 2022.

When the 44-year-old announced a surprise run for mayor on Saturday, she claimed Los Angeles was “no longer a place of opportunity” and ”at breaking point.”

In 2023, Raman was one of only three members on council who opposed a new four-year contract with the Los Angeles Police Protective League to given new officers a 14% raise.

She argued the “enormous fiscal impact” would prevent the city from funding alternative responses to homelessness and mental health calls.

The union representing the LAPD said electing Raman and endorsing her democratic socialist agenda was a “recipe for disaster.”

At some point, America will need its own Pinochet

The present system of massive printed money and debt, funding bloated government, the woke welfare states of places like CA and NY City, and an NGO army of migrants, foreign politicians, and blue-haired leftists - is simply not sustainable.

Californians don’t even trust each other so they elect freaks, phonies like Newscum and foreigners to run the joint.

Our side looks at this all wrong. Without police, it’s open season on the leftist politicians. Defunding police is not a problem, it’s an opportunity. We are free to execute the politicians, rapists, drug dealers or any other undesirables with relative impunity.

she claimed Los Angeles was “no longer a place of opportunity” and ”at breaking point.”

And she's guilty of bringing LA to that "breaking point".

She will win too. All the commie celebrities will rally for the commie because they know they will not be affected one bit as long as they pay off the protection money.

Democratic Socialists of America... outlining a commitment to disarming police, ending fossil fuel use, closing jails, raising taxes and de-criminalizing drugs.

Sounds exactly like what the voters of Los Angeles not only want but will vote for.

Either she or Bass will win. If she wins, in a few months, idiot voters will be pining for the good old days of Karen Bass.

Stupid voters + illegals voting + mail-in ballots + vote fraud = Karen Bass or Nithia Ramen.

I'll hedge my bet on either one.

First, voters said they want to make the movie Escape From New York a reality. Now, they can vote for the sequel, Escape From LA.

Removing the golf courses that host the U.S. Open, Tiger Woods Invitational, and other major events to appease their “we hate anything outside our wants”.
