DNC chairman Tom Perez said Democratic Socialists of America member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez represents the future of our party. DSA chapter chairs have agreed that communism is good. One DSA caucus calls its members revolutionary Marxists.
A far-left group behind rising Democratic star Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is rife with Marxists and other far-left radicals.
The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), which includes Ocasio-Cortez, is creeping its way into the mainstream of American politics.
Ocasio-Cortez shocking primary upset of Democratic New York Rep. Joe Crowley on June 26 elevated both her profile and that of the DSA, which helped boost her to victory. DSA member rolls have skyrocketed since President Donald Trumps victory in the 2016 election, and Ocasio-Cortezs victory appears to have accelerated that trend.
Democratic National Committee (DNC) chairman Tom Perez said the 28-year-old socialist represents the future of our party on Tuesday.

The Democrats jettisoning the “Christian” part of “Christian Socialism” of Bryan’s would mean that even he would probably have left the Democrats for the GOP today. He could see the way things were going when he was working on the Scopes Trial before his death.
Not that I give a rat sass who the people of that backwater New York location elect to represent them, but the obvious thought comes to mind,"people get the government that they deserve."
Aside from that, however, I have a permanent bias against tribal politics, multiple last name idiots and a first name of a North African ancient city as social "bling."
A marxist?
I am disappointed that the kakistocracy of California forfeited the honor of the ultimate political suicide via monumental stupidity,ignorance and indifference.
We life in interesting times.
Just as a commentary on the incompetent state or modern "reporting," what position exactly was this imbecile elected to?
True. Socialism is just communism’s younger brother. Socialism grows into communism.
Six months ago?
Good grief!
It started 31 years ago,when the Clinton Criminal Enterprise launched the 25 year plan, validating serious crimes against the Republic, and that road as the "new" means to fundamentally transform the very soul of the Republic.
Normally considered treason, pure and simple.
A hanging offense.
No escaping the irony. Left to mature; socialism frequently morphs into full communism. I view socialism as communist-light. Also both Germany and Russia killed millions of their own people. Germany used starvation and the ovens. Russia mainly used starvation and coercion. Both countries did that after disarming its population which is why no free people should ever give up their firearms willingly. If the people are going to be targeted to die; better to die with a gun in hand fighting back than kneeling with head bowed.
I thought they took over already in the 1980s. Just because you wear a nice suit and brush your teeth doesn’t mean you are not a radical.
Use the same weapons against them.
Nice guys finish last.
Fight with all means possible...
...or lose.
Stalin killed millions of Communists, as well, Trotsky among them.
As P.J. O’Rourke said, before he lost his mind, Socialism is just Communism by the drink.
To make an omelet, you gotta break some eggs.
You missed the memo...
They absolutely HATE us using the "democratic" word. Not sure why, but that's why I use it.
And should he follow Trump, in '24, he'll be worse than G.H.W. Bush!
Long,long, long ago, there was a small group here ( before he was Governor; IIRC ), who were enamored of Pence and kept trying to push for the rest of us to want hi to be president. I read whatever was posted, did my own research and was not just unimpressed by him, but did NOT want him to be anywhere near the presidency; let alone president! Have I changed my mind? HELL NO!
I tend to agree with you on this. I don't dislike Pence but I don't really know him either. I know more about Biden than Pence. I would like to think Pence and Trump are on the same page most the time because Pence supports Trump publicly but that doesn't mean he does privately.
What worries me about Pence is he would be like Sessions once in the position of authority. Sessions was a far better senator than an AG. I suspect Pence is a far better VP than he would be as a Prez.
In civil service they frequently promote people to point of incompetence to get them out of the way. It appears Sessions has almost reached that level and if Pence went up one more notch; he would be there.
I don't have any facts to back me up; just a gut feeling. An intuition by observing from my spot in the nose-bleed section of the bleachers.
Explaining Communism, Lenin said, “Communism is Socialism in a hurry.” (Which is probably where the saying “Communist are Liberals in hurry” came from.)
My point is that the Democrat party is run today by the same Urban Eastern Seaboard Establishment that ran the Republican party in Bryan's day.
Besides, haven't you heard? Poor redneck Bible-thumpers don't "deserve" to be "liberated" by socialism!
Poor Thomas was literally incapable of imagining the violence and irrationality that the Judicial Branch itself could inflict on the Republic, left to their own devices...
It’s hard to believe, but it’s what’s happening.
Ignore me. Just watch!
