A shadowy new alliance led by pro-China communists plans to mobilize 40 million new Democratic voters for the 2020 election.
This group, firstly known as the State-based Power Caucus and now simply the State Power Caucus, has the ability to mobilize thousands of volunteers and paid staff in New York, California, Washington, Oregon, Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Minnesota, Ohio, Illinois, Missouri, Kentucky, Mississippi, Virginia, Georgia, Florida, and Texas.
The State Power Caucus has already had a major political impact in Virginia, Florida, Kentucky, Texas, California, and several other states. This alliance could decide the 2020 election—yet it’s operating almost completely “under the radar.”
In July 2017, 20 state-based organizations from 13 states united to form the State-Based Power Caucus. The organization has no website and has generated very little publicity. We don’t even know its full roster of member organizations or the identities of most of its leaders.
What we do know is that most of its identified leaders come from “orbit” of Liberation Road—the United States’ main pro-China communist party. We also know that at least 22 major organizations in at least 15 states have now joined the caucus.
Leaders
Most known leaders of the State Power Caucus have some connection to Liberation Road. Known until recently as the Freedom Road Socialist Organization, Liberation Road is descended from radical Maoist groups from the 1960s and ‘70s. While no longer exclusively Maoist in outlook, Liberation Road maintains ties to China, Cuba, and other communist nations and movements.
Identified leaders of the State Power Caucus include:
Jon Liss—co-chair of the New Virginia Majority, national chair of State Power Caucus. Long-time member of Liberation Road.
Andrea Mercado—co-chair of The New Florida Majority, leadership team State Power Caucus.
Bob Wing—organizing committee State Power Caucus. Former member of Maoist grouping Line of March. A long-time Liberation Road affiliate.
Anthony Thigpenn—founder and president of California Calls and leadership team member of the State Power Caucus.
Claire Tran—State Power Caucus staff. Long-time Liberation Road member.
Member Organizations
Most of the State Power Caucus affiliates are led by Liberation Road cadre or supporters. Some of the organizations are former affiliates of ACORN, the discredited “community organizing” organization exposed by Project Veritas, Glenn Beck, and others.
Confirmed organizations affiliated to the State Power Caucus include:
California Calls is a California-wide alliance with includes the renamed ACORN affiliate Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment, several Liberation Road influenced organizations including Asian Americans Advancing Justice, Asian Pacific Environmental Network, Community Coalition, Strategic Concepts in Organizing Policy Education, Los Angeles Alliance for a New Economy, Oakland Rising, San Francisco Rising Alliance plus California Federation of Teachers, Congregations Organized for Prophetic Engagement, Dolores Huerta Foundation, and several others. These groups have signed up hundreds of thousands of mainly “minority” voters to turn California into one the most heavily Democratic states in the country.
Kentuckians for the Commonwealth claims 7,500 members across the state and played a role in the recent defeat of Republican Gov. Matt Bevin. One of Democratic Governor-elect Andy Beshear’s first actions was to restore voting rights to 100,000 Kentucky felons—a move lobbied for by Kentuckians for the Commonwealth. One of Kentuckians for the Commonwealth’s key leaders, Meta Mendel-Reyes, was involved with the pro-China League of Revolutionary Struggle in the 1980s and has served on the board of the Liberation Road-led Highlander Research and Education Center in Tennessee.
New Virginia Majority can claim credit more than any other organization for turning reliably Republican Virginia into a Democratic state. In 10 years of solid organizing New Virginia Majority claims to have signed up more than 200,000 Democratic-leaning “minority” voters. The group also worked closely with former Democratic Gov. Terry McAuliffe to re-instate voting rights to more than 200,000 disenfranchised felons.
The New Florida Majority, like its Virginia cousin, is a front for Liberation Road. The New Florida Majority has signed up tens of thousands of “minority” voters for the Democratic Party and has helped elect several state-level politicians in Southern Florida. In 2018, the organization also worked with Organize Florida (formerly Florida ACORN) to pass a referendum re-enfranchising 1.4 million felons for the 2020 election. The New Florida Majority almost succeeded in electing the leftist Mayor of Tallahassee to the Florida Governor’s Mansion in 2018.
Washington Community Action Network is the state chapter of USAction. The group claims that in May 2019, Gov. Jay Inslee signed “their” Eviction Reform Bill into law. Washington Community Action Network executive director Mary Le Nguyen was a 2017 alumna of the Liberation Road-affiliated Rockwood Leadership Institute, an Oakland, California-based school for “community organizers.”
The Plan
It’s no secret that the communist rulers of China would love to see President Donald Trump defeated in 2020.
Therefore, it’s not surprising that Beijing’s American franchise has a plan to do just that.
According to State Power Caucus leader Jon Liss writing in Organizing Upgrade:
“Inspired by the disaster of Trump and Trumpism two years out most organizers are engaged in barroom or coffee shop speculation about the 2020 election. …
“All of it is idle speculation unless ‘we’ collectively organize tens of millions of the 108 million eligible voters who didn’t vote in 2016. That’s right, one hundred and eight million eligible voters chose not to register or to vote in 2016. The non-voting block is disproportionately young, poor and people of color.”
So how does Liberation Road plan to harvest these millions of potential Democrat voters? They claim credit for nearly 4 million new voters in 2016—but the target is way higher for 2020.
“Over the last twenty-five years, state power organizations have grown to fill the political space created by the decline of Democratic Party local organization, the breakup and collapse of ACORN, and low levels of voter turnout. …
“These organizations have deep strategic knowledge and practice in their particular states. Starting in the summer of 2017 many leading state-power organizations have come together as a caucus to support peer-to-peer learning and incubate innovate organizing practices. …
“The State Power Caucus has worked to first analyze the collective reach of the national networks who engage in electoral and civic engagement work. …
“We’ve also begun to assess the collective impact of state-based organizations. Looking at 2016, our rough estimate is that at most 4 million people were contacted and encouraged to vote. This is our high-water estimate. The actual number who actually voted is probably much lower still.
“Now, recall the 108 million people who were eligible but not voting? They are largely our ‘core’ constituency, or in other terms, they are our unorganized social base. This 108 million when compared to the voting electorate is more Black, more immigrant, more working class and poor.
“If we initially target just half of the 108 million, and we acknowledge that some in that half are going to disagree with our values and politics, some aren’t going to vote no matter what, and some are in geographies that we just can’t reach, we believe our real voter mobilization target number is 40 million, and we’ve agreed as a caucus to that number as our target. That’s our natural consistency.
“These are the voters or potential voters who put AOC and Ilhan Omar into Congress. They are our friends and family, and they are the everyday members and supporters of our organizations that fight for racial justice at the state and local level.”
The State Power Caucus believes that 40 million new anti-Trump voters is both realistic and achievable.
“The State Power Caucus is committed to working more effectively, efficiently and collaboratively with national social justice networks. Together, we look to take a big leap forward and move from mobilizing 4 million and organizing many less to mobilizing and organizing many times more.
“The long game to defeat white nationalism and move past neo-liberal corporatism is by building a bottom up movement of 40 million people.
“At a minimum that is a movement where people vote consistently and consciously. Where people share our values for racial, gender and social justice and where people believe they have the capacity to rule.”
Does the Republican Party even understand what’s coming? While President Trump is confronting China on trade and challenging China’s military in the Pacific, his voter base is being undermined by pro-China communists in Florida, Georgia, Texas, and Arizona. If Liberation Road can flip only two or three states in the South, a China-appeasing Democrat takes the White House in 2020.
Permanent Socialism
The United States stands one election away from permanent socialism—otherwise known as “communism.” If the Democrats win in 2020 they will use the organs of the state to destroy their enemies. They will flood the country with immigrants, legal and illegal, and they will swamp the conservative voting base. They will consolidate their power just like they did in Cuba and Venezuela, and a free America will be over forever.
And all this could happen because a few hundred pro-China communists, with mountains of money from the Democracy Alliance, unions, and tax-free foundations are allowed to out-organize Trump and the Republicans in the South.
It’s perfectly legal to sign up “minority” voters for the Democratic Party. It’s not legal to do that to the advantage of a hostile foreign power.
The State Power Caucus and their constituent groups should become the number one priority for federal and state investigative bodies.

We could end so much vote fraud by just making all of this get out the vote crap Illegal. It should be Illegal. Voting is a responsibility. It is not a game.
= = = = = = = = = =
It basically started ‘recently’ with the motor voter AND when localities started allowing anyone who lived in an area be allowed to vote no matter how legal or illegal they were it got them on the rolls and we are seeing how it is almost impossible to get them off.
Back when I was a lad, all the ‘borscht belt’ comedians used to joke about how people who summered in NY and wintered in FL were voting in both places as they had legal addresses in both places.
Believe the general consensus was NO ONE would do such a low down thing...NOW we have to more or less believe that it was an active game.
Wasn’t that long ago there was a push for a National ID which most everyone was against.
It probably isn’t a bad idea since ID theft is so rampant and your SS # is/was being used for far too many reasons which makes ID theft easier.
A national ID tied in with voting would hopefully make it once a NUMBER was used, it gets ‘discarded’ for that period. With computers etc it wouldn’t be all that difficult.
Pols and the general public etal are more worried about the ‘legitimacy’ of an American Idol or such vote than they are when it comes to electing our Politicians.
....And if possible 10s of miilions of ineligible characters.
I live in a very remote county in Oregon, where there are more animals then people, and property has been for sale for years, and at the lowest prices in the state. Few want to live this remote, mostly ranchers here.
In the last week, all of a sudden 5 out of 21 listings for the whole county, have pending sales. Some small residential places in town, and some very very large acreage ranches that have been for sale for years, for a few million. Seemed so strange to see this just all of a sudden. Maybe this is why............
I just posted similar article on #17, before seeing your link, which shows the lengths the left will go to find illegal voters for 2020. There has been a 9% drop in homes available in last part of 2019....up t0 20% in some areas.
I noted in #17 how NC, my state, has had an overall drop in all major towns and cities of available real estate. I also noted mass voter fraud discovered in NC, when Obama won it first time...but not proven until much later. I think, as do others, this is buying of cheap home for addresses, that illegal votes can be pursued. ID must be presented in NC with address etc, and DL (which illegals are getting in raging numbers). 5 or 6 states are banding together to bust Constitution by giving popular vote (to destroy Electoral College) in 2020, creating Constitutional Crisis..... NC is not one of those, so another method is at work, imho. What is going on in your state?
I have said this many times, Trump will most likely be our last Republican President. With China buying up homes, busineeses, land, felons now being able to vote, voting no reason absentee, people going door to door filling out ballots, ballots lost, destroyed in Red voting areas, the push for socialism, social justice we are going to get swallowed up.
Yup. Their whole game is AstroTurf.
The now defunct ACORN mob? There’s got to be a Soros involved in it somewhere!
Thank you...I began searching for small home, as I am downsizing, and I knew my popular tourist area was being crowded by outsiders buying in... What I found out as I compared other counties was places no one really cared about living were sold out, as prices were low....seems most counties have had upswing in sales, and available homes dwindling. That was wake up call. I remembered the comment Dems were asking left voters to move to red states, but this is going to be voter fraud from probably illegals as well....so glad I am finding this is all across country. Pray and talk to friends about their areas....we need a strategy to use in 2020 to prevent the fraud.
So the Dems are colluding with China, too? Who aren’t they colluding with?
President Trump should make an Executive Order stating all states must have voted ID. By the time it goes through the Supreme Court the election would be over. The duck will take over our country if something isn’t done.
And the demoKKKrats have only ever followed the law, when?
A local man owns a massive amount of property all over the county.
His real estate buys have been financed by Arabs, even though the man is a staunch Republican.
He is old and his wretched son is a Democrat.
If the old man dies, I may wind up living in Saudi West.
Destroyed from within
I hate ducks.......
It’s estimated by the census bureau that the US grew around 3M (that’s pretty small) between 2016 and 2019.
Curious case of 40M people materializing from oblivion if true.
I have a question: If the democrat party is the Communist/Socialist party -Why is any democrat allowed to hold office in our government, in the first place?
Socialism/Communism, by their very natures VIOLATE our United States Constitution- Starting with individual rights, (which do not exist under any other system), and moving on from there.
No Socialist/Communist can possibly be sincere, when they make their oath of office (oath to uphold our Constitution). Shouldn't they be removed from office, because of this?
Unfortunately, the majority of our spineless corrupt worms, who represent us, do not have cajones to talk about, much less do something about, this.
That said, I do agree that we have to try and reach out to people about the insanity and utter horror of Communism/Socialism.
And we definitely need God always.
(Everyone: If you're not praying for our nation and President Trump, start. If you are already praying regularly, pray more. We are fighting the forces of darkness.)
I just don't understa how ANYONE would vote to turn over total control of their lives to a politician promising free stuff.
If you give up your individual rights to the government, they will then have the power to take away someone elses stuff and give it to you, but what happens when they decide to take your stuff away, and give it to someone else?
You won't be able to do anything about it by then, because you already gave up your rights, and ability to defend yourself. So you'll end up like the unfortunate people of Venezuela, drinking sewer water, watching your kids fight each other with machetes over whatever edible garbage they can find, while your Socialist/Communist millionaire leader sends thugs to beat you for protesting the misery, and has trucks with food aid burned up.
Truth be told the government doesn't have ANY STUFF, free or otherwise, of its own. It only has what it TAKES AWAY from the people.
Why would any sane person want to surrender control of their lives to anyone, much less total strangers, is beyond my understanding.
Not only that, but they want CORRUPT politicians (entire democrat party), to have complete control over them. Add to this, that they, (democrats) ,also have no criticism whatsoever, and in fact embrace, the world's most brutal regime's- Iran, Cuba, China, Venezuela, exc.. ALL places where people live in misery, poverty, and are aggressively put down for any criticism, or protest their of government.
But dem voters don't see a problem with these corrupt politicians, with their love of authoritarian dictatorships, being made all powerful?
We have our work cut out for us, trying to wake people up.
Then again, with God, all things are possible.
Lol
Hopefully the guy on her left lost an eardrum.

I am sure you missed this:
“In July 2017, 20 state-based organizations from 13 states united to form the State-Based Power Caucus. “
these people are not to be discounted. I think I have met some of them a few years ago by accident. They are very committed and do nothing but organize all day long, every day.
If “we”/RNC/Conservatives don’t’ come up with a way to counter them, they will eventually do to other states what they did to Virginia.
If/once they get in the WH and control Congress and a majority of powerful states, the only alternative to a Venezuela type situation will be a civil war.
Needs to be interdicted. Fast.
