Socialism Comes to Congress: 98 House Dems Vote Against Measure To Condemn Far-Left Ideology
WFB ^ | 21 Nov 2025 | Jameson Mitrovich

Resolution, which passed the House 285-98, came hours before Trump's meeting with socialist NYC mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani

Ninety-eight House Democrats on Friday voted against a resolution "denouncing the horrors of socialism" that came just hours before President Donald Trump met with socialist New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani.

The resolution passed 285-98, with only 86 Democrats voting in favor. Two Democrats voted "present." No Republicans opposed the resolution.

The measure states that "Congress denounces socialism in all its forms, and opposes the implementation of socialist policies in the United States," characterizing socialism as an ideology that "necessitates a concentration of power that has, time and time again, collapsed into communist regimes, totalitarian rule, and brutal dictatorships."

Mamdani's rise and mayoral victory could mark a turning point for the Democratic Party as its establishment begins to embrace far-left radicals. After months of progressive pressure, House minority leader Hakeem Jeffries (D., N.Y.) backed the socialist shortly before the November 4 election. Former president Barack Obama said shortly after Mamdani's victory that the socialist mayor-elect is "part of a vision for the future."

Never forget these people/Dems DENIED God, THREE times, on their platform decisions, several years back.

It is any surprise that they vote against evil, on the House floor?

We let them indoctrinate the children of this country. It seems to me that will enable them to bring socialism to the US. Try to engage a young commie wannabe in a conversation. Anything you say regarding the failures of socialism will be mocked as FauxNews propaganda and the little commie will shut you down.

When you start electing illegal alien freeloading foreigners to Congress, and filling our weaponized Feral courts with ditzy pineapple “jugheads in black robes” from the Caribbean, this is what happens. America deserves the Amerika they are in the process of building with the money given to them to clown for the “Riots For Soros” riots.

THEY want us to talk about this issue to normalize it. We don’t need to take the bait each and every time.

Well, that makes it pretty clear what the Democrats want.

Either evil as all commie trash are or cowards. Note, the murder up to the point of birth has been in DNC policy for years.

I don’t need Congress to condemn socialism. I need Congress to quit enacting socialism.
