Commissioner Ana María Archila was scheduled to meet with Iran’s permanent representative to the United Nations, at 2 United Nations Plaza. The meeting between Archila and Iravani was called off after the State Department—which was not informed ahead of time—met with the Mamdani administration to clarify acceptable conduct. Commissioner Archila allegedly did not inform Mayor Mamdani of the meeting; she was reprimanded for the move and directed to cancel the meeting. The development is a continuation of Commissioner Archila and the Mamdani administration’s ongoing use of public resources to advance an agenda that extends well beyond New York City. On...

Somewhere out there is my favorite of all time. Sure, I can say the same for maybe 200 more. I’m talking specifically about my Meyer Lansky column, the one where Jews of all kinds, rose up to be counted. Lansky was first among equals so far as Murder Inc. In a world of gangsters dominated by Italian Americans, the Jewish mob was no slouch. As the saying goes, they loved their mothers. These Jews were tough, and they were styled right here in America. Meanwhile, over in Germany, Hitler and his goons had begun to popularize the Nazis…early and mid...

Liora Rez, executive director of StopAntisemitism, said: “Calling Israel’s defensive war against Hamas a ‘genocide’ is not activism; it is a modern blood libel dressed up in academic language.” By Marhilda Heller. August 13, 2026. An alliance of 55 organizations has this week launched Gaza GenoLIE, an educational initiative about the “generated and orchestrated genocide lie promoted by anti-Zionists and antisemitic networks in the US, Europe and around the world.” It further says that the “Gaza Genocide” is one of the biggest lies of the 21st century. The website includes eight pieces of what it describes as “the Gaza GenoLIE...

Longtime Clinton ally Julian Epstein urged Republicans to take action within the university system to 'save' the country. Partial transcript- I'm Julian Epstein. Uh, I'm a longtime Democrat. Uh, I was formerly the chief counsel of the House Judiciary Committee and the staff director of the House Oversight Committee for the Democrats. In terms of the question as to what the Democrats can do right now to reverse course and, um, and shift back towards the center, the first thing is to recognize why the party is going off the deep end here. It's first a question of incompetence. The...

President Trump was right to highlight the Communist threat to our American way of life. During his address at Mount Rushmore, on the eve of our nation’s 250th anniversary, President Donald Trump warned Americans of a “resurgence of the Communist threat is now present in our country—including among newcomers who adopt ideologies that are fundamentally contrary to our way of life.” In this, the President rehashed the talk he gave at the Faith & Freedom Coalition conference this past June, referring to the self-identified Socialist Democrats who won primary elections as “godless communists.” “These are not social democrats. These are...

DSA is entirely member-funded and member-led. DSA-curious? Wondering about our non-electoral work? Learn more. Built by DSA's National Tech Committee.

DSA is an amalgamation of progressive, socialist, communist, open borders mayhem, and Muslim ideology including “free Palestine.” This movement offers disturbing changes based on their platform (www.program.dsausa.org), TV interviews, history of such movements, and logical inference: 1. DSA proponents have said they want to disband the U.S. Senate, the Supreme Court, and the Electoral College with the Presidential elections decided by the House of Representatives. Why is that? Because they want a one-party system of government with elections ultimately controlled by themselves. Thus, they would dismantle our system of checks and balances built into America’s Constitution―desiring instead a government modeled...

So, at time of writing, it looks as if voters don’t want to cancel Thanksgiving – on balance, at least. Come November, however, few Democrats will be expressing gratitude for their party’s vote-tabulation systems. Francesca Hong, it seems, will not be America’s first avowedly socialist state governor. She appears to have just lost an extremely tight primary to David Crowley, a Milwaukee County executive, in the gubernatorial primary in Wisconsin. The long-view – and already ubiquitous – reaction to this news is to mark it down as a major blow for the Democratic Socialists of America and their bid to...

Think about it. Absentee voting started as of three weeks ago when Crowley had just returned to the gubernatorial primary in Wisconsin after dropping out for 10 days. Obviously the absentee ballots cast in July for Crowley would have been LOW in comparison to that of Hong who was at that time still sort of considered serious candidate until her tweets came to light. Therefore there must have been a big imbalance in the absentee ballots mailed in July in strong favor of Hong over Crowley. And that imbalance is enough to bring her enough of a margin to override...

A solid majority of the rapidly growing New York City Democratic Socialists of America (NYC-DSA) self-identifies as white — despite the far-left faction touting itself as champions of diversity and inclusivity, according to a new survey. The Big Apple chapter, whose membership includes Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Queens Congresswoman and “Squad” member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, is 60% white, an internal demographic survey of its members found. That makes the socialist organization considerably less racially diverse than the New York City population — and even the Democratic Party as a whole. The Democratic Party is approximately 56% white, according to Pew Research...

Earth is 71% water, 29% land, and only a fraction of it is useful. Scarcity—and who owns what—drives every economic system humans have ever built. From Karl Marx writing Das Kapital in deep poverty to the 28-year natural experiment inside divided Berlin, we trace how socialism evolved from a radical economic theory into a system governing a third of the planet—and why central planning keeps running into the exact same problem.

Tuesday’s CNN This Morning played a clip of the radical DSA candidate, the favorite to win Wisconsin’s Democratic gubernatorial primary, supposedly walking back her insanely radical positions. In the clip, she offers this defense of her past calls to defund the police, abolish the U.S. Senate, and cancel Thanksgiving: “I learned then you have some hot takes, sometimes bad takes, on Twitter, and I let my feelings out into the world.” Francesca, Francesca! You let your feelings out? Do you realize you just admitted the crazy stuff is actually how you feel? Host Audie Cornish did her best to cushion...

The Naked Communist by W.

A veteran Democratic attorney is putting the legacy media on blast for falling short in its coverage of the "civil war" that has broken out between moderates and far-left socialists with the Democratic Party. Julian Epstein, who served as the chief legal counsel for House-Democrats during the Clinton impeachment hearing and later worked on Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign, made waves last week declaring his support for Republican Mike Rogers over progressive darling Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan's Senate race.[....l] "If you rely on [MSNOW] for news, I think you're basically illiterate and uninformed about what's going on, Epstein told Fox News....

VIDEOS AT LINK.................... The Democrat party has been freaking out about the Democratic Socialists of late – despite striking similarities between their policies – because while Democrats are happy to sweet talk voters into socialist ideas that signal maximum virtue, they don’t actually want to enact policies that would make blue-city budgets even more dire than they are. In short, the party is panicking because the voters they radicalized are electing radicals… So what better way to let progressives see what they’re voting for? Trot out a co-chair of the DSA with maybe two brain cells to rub together, ask...

Arab Islamic "palestine" terrorist Ahlam Tamimi, then 20 years old, disguised herself and Izz al-Din Shuheil al-Masri, the suicide bomber, as Jewish tourists. She chose the target for al-Masri and left the area before the bomb detonated and went to report on the bombing on a Palestinian news channel where she was a part-time journalist. Ahlam Tamimi who helped choose the target, scouting the location to decide when the crowd would be largest, the death count highest, and then dropped off the bomber. She later smiled as she recalled celebrating as the death toll rose from 3 to over a...

Gad Saad @GadSaad: Yikes. No amount of evidence can convince some lobotomized people that this guy and his ilk are degenerate enemies of liberty.

The more you see and hear from Abdul El-Sayed, the socialist-aligned radical who just won the Democrat Party's Senate primary in Michigan, the more it seems like he's better suited to be a bomb-throwing keyboard warrior or a podcast bro who excels at raging into a microphone. It certainly seems like he's auditioning for one of these roles instead of the sober, serious job of being a United States senator. Then again, no one has accused the Democrat Party of being sober or serious in a very long time. El-Sayed had Vice President JD Vance in his sights during a...

One of the top honchos with the Democratic Socialist of America struggled to explain what “taxing the rich” meant and appeared clueless about the Clinton era landmark Israeli Palestinian peace effort, during an embarrassing radio interview with The New Yorker Friday. Megan Romer, one of the two national co-chairs of the organization, seemed bewildered by a question from the magazine’s editor David Remnick about one of the DSA’s signature positions. “Well, what does ‘taxing the hell out of them’ mean?’” Remnick asked on the episode of The New Yorker Radio Hour titled “How Socialist Is the DSA? Megan Romer Explains“....

While progressives celebrated several high-profile victories in Michigan on Tuesday, candidates backed by the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and the party’s anti-Israel wing suffered a series of notable defeats elsewhere, underscoring the limits of the movement’s electoral reach. The most closely watched race unfolded in Missouri’s 1st Congressional District, where Rep. Wesley Bell decisively defeated former Rep. Cori Bush in a rematch of their 2024 primary. Bush, a former member of the “Squad” and one of Congress’s most outspoken critics of Israel, sought to reclaim the St. Louis-area seat after blaming her previous defeat on pro-Israel outside spending. Instead,...
