"I forgot to get napkins. I just wiped my hand on the American flag behind me." —Darializa Avila-Chevalier, primary election winner, New York’s 13th Congressional District.
DSA on the March shoulder to shoulder with the Pride Brigade.
Who are all these Democratic Socialists of America, anyway?
“We are Westerners fighting for the total eradication of Western civilization,” one of their spoxes declared on Instagram in 2024.
Hmmmm . . . . I wonder if you can be a little more specific. Like, including democracy and socialism, two western civ constructs? Kind of looks like a baby / bathwater situation, followed by burning down the house where the baby lived. Do we get a chance to debate this proposition in the midterm election?
Likewise, a St. Paul, Minnesota, school board member, one Chauntyll Allen offered the following policy recommendation on the We Love Our Dog Park Facebook page:
A bad moon is rising on our nation’s 250th birthday. The country is in a rancid mood. You begin to see what happens when political ideas are carried to their last limits. Question is: does all this add up to a winning party platform? You must suppose that higher-ups in the Democratic Party are asking themselves the question now. What do Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer think when they see these Angels of Death on the march (or in flight) over the midterm battlefield?
Darializa Avila Chevalier, Claire Valdez, and Melat Kiros are going to Congress to link arms with “The Squad” — AOC, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Ayanna Pressley — and they will bring their cargo of DSA policy ideas with them: racial, gender, and social justice; abolish ICE (no more deporting anybody); defund the police; end incarceration (no more jails); free housing and medical care; green this-n-that; government ownership of business; abolish the Senate and the electoral college; pack the SCOTUS. . . .
The platform apparently has a lot of appeal to a certain demographic — which, I suspect, includes the many young recent graduates of the diploma mills who are pissed-off that Mr. Trump & Company are methodically shutting down the NGOs that were supposed to furnish these young race-and-gender studies majors with cushy, six-figure jobs doing “activism.” Alas, that pathway is increasingly blocked and the country only needs so many baristas. What to do then? Take it to the limit! Be communists. . . with all that entails. What’s mine is mine and what’s yours is mine, too.
This new gen of Democratic Socialists is arguably worse than the Confederates of 1861. Those Rebs only wanted to secede from USA and go their own way in one corner of the land. They didn’t want to piss on Johann Sebastian Bach, Leonardo DaVinci, Jane Austen, Margaret Fuller, and Ralph Waldo Emerson as they walked out. The Democratic Socialists of our day are fully aligned with their avatars: Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong, and Pol Pot, who operated human meat-grinders at scale to tamp down the opposition. Not a great look to align with the great mass-murderers of history.
It must be agony for Schumer and Jeffries. Eradicate Western Civ. . . ? Piss on white people’s corpses. . . ? Are they really going to get behind that? No-o-o-o-o. But they will try to wriggle around this steaming pile for some weeks to come until it is obvious that the Democratic Party has blown itself up, hoisted itself on that old petard. It may be too late for the party’s old guard. No matter how many rain-dances Elizabeth Warren does, nothing will put out this dumpster fire.
Another question for the months ahead: can that party control its increasingly maniacal street warriors, the Antifas, the Pink Pistols, the Transgender Armed Defense forces, and whatever remains of BLM. There is still a lot of money in circulation for public demonstrations and disruptions from George Soros and other sponsors. And apart from that are the forces of jihad, with their own foreign patrons. Gawd knows how many jihadis came into the country during “Joe Biden’s” orchestrated alien invasion. Not just a few, you can be sure.
By the way, can somebody at the Office of Management and Budget do an audit of the $370-billion that “Joe Biden” handed over to John Podesta in the fall of 2024 to administer “climate-related provisions” of the Inflation Reduction Act, and figure out how much of it bounced right back into Democratic Party-adjacent NGOs and down to party capos like Stacey Abrams in Georgia, Brandon Johnson in Chicago, and Karen Bass in LA?
Meanwhile, the big celebration of America’s 250th is only hours away. There will be a lot of bangs and flashes the next couple of days. Let’s hope they are not really big ones. Stay alert and safe out there. And happy 250th birthday to you, America — if you can keep yourself.

In the blue part of Ohio, as far as I can tell, yes.
*** “A winning party platform?” ***
“In the blue part of Ohio ... , yes.
Here in Central Kentucky, I have friends I’ve known from grade school through college who go to lunch together every week. I could ask them the following questions, and they would answer “No” to all of them, but they’ll still turn around and vote Democrat:
Should it be legal to kill someone who is in your way, a way that you yourself have chosen?
Should people in the country illegally be allowed to vote?
Should people in the country illegally receive welfare, food stamps, and other taxpayer assistance?
Should people in the country illegally be issued valid driver’s licenses?
Should people in the country illegally be issued commercial driver’s licenses?
Should it should be legal for a parent to have their child’s genitals modified via surgery?
Should males be allowed to compete in female sporting events?
Should there be a maximum wealth?
Should companies be made to give all profits to the government?
Should the minimum wage be $50/hr. or higher?
Should landlords be prohibited from raising their rent?
Feel free to add to my list.
But that POS got elected anyway. But I agree. Images of this person doing this, if available, should be publicized to put a face of the DSA on this.
They need to be mercilessly crushed in any way we can legally do so.
Yep, but far too many American voters could not pass a current events test. That is, far too many voters had no idea who Bill Ayers was or his tie to Obama. However, posting a video of Darializa Avila Chevalier wiping her hands with the American flag, with the caption: “She wants to represent you in the US House of Representatives.” might have an impact.
Yes, we should try in any case…
I couldn’t help myself...

Talking Heads - Burning Down the House (Official Video)
Kunstler rocks - is that a great way to start an article or what? Thanks for the ping Climber.
I remember when 0bama got elected - a LOT of election theft going on. homeless paid to vote, buses filled with Somalians or some other trash being driven from polling place to polling place to vote over and over again, etc.
With honest and clean elections, America will look very different.
The burn it all down caucus is growing, and for very understandable reasons.
There is no radical right wing reform movement, all the energy is on the left.
There is still a brief time to decide what kind of Second Revolution we are going to have - but what we will not have is more of the same.
Great idea for the New York Times or the Atlantic magazine - just incase their 'news packets' from DNC war rooms were light this week... lol
The “Noo” Socialists strike again!
It’s too bad that several of them will be going to Congress, to join AOC and her gang!
I agree if conservatives can buck up to keep that pressure on to pursue that goal of honest and clean elections, Leftist efforts to get into office will be less and less successful.
There is no mandate for their policies, and their record of success is non-existent. Without financial cheating and election fraud, it will be harder and harder for them to win.
I wish more people on “our” side understood the truth in this dynamic.
I am disheartened by ostensible conservatives who have been “black pilled” and have at best, given up, or at worst, become fully invested in defeat and failure, just about rooting for this Republic to fail.
We need to have a spine and the will to fight. And many people, including a number here on this website have shown they cannot be depended on…when they aren’t on the other side to begin with.
I understand their frustration and anger, but it is my wish that they should keep their negativity to themselves and stay out of the way of those who wish to reclaim our Republic.
