Dems big tent excuse will lead to their doom and maybe the countrys too

The next mayor of Washington, DC, is likely to be a Marxist.In Los Angeles, the Mensheviks and Bolsheviks are battling it out for control.New York City has already fallen to a champion of Third Worldism.And, for the first time in American history, a significant bloc of Congress will openly hate the country they represent.We aren’t talking about anti-Americanism in an abstract or hyperbolic sense: The Zohran Mamdani slate that swept New York’s Democratic Party primaries this week is explicit in its aim to dismantle the republic.Members of Democratic Socialists of America want to abolish the police, prisons and borders and “seize the means of production,” as the future congresswoman from New York’s 13th congressional district, Darializa Avila Chevalier, once argued.The co-founder of a group that called for “nothing short of the total collapse” of the “American empire,” with the goal to “eradicate America” and “Western civilization,” Avila Chevalier doesn’t deny she’s a communist.And why should she?There’s a temptation to dismiss and whitewash the rise of the socialists.We shouldn’t.Sure, the DSA is still constrained by the constitutional order — but it isn’t constrained by Democrats.“The roof is collapsing on the Democratic Party establishment tonight,” Van Jones warned on CNN as he watched the New York primary results come in.“This is a battle between the establishment and this insurgency.”What battle? The establishment has surrendered to the DSA’s hostile takeover on every front.Establishment Democrats like Nancy Pelosi had the chance to sideline Squad members when they first appeared, yet the former speaker eventually coddled them, perched them in important committees and appeared on magazine covers celebrating their ascendency.If Democrats were unwilling to sideline illiberal bigots like Reps.

Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) back then, what makes anyone think they’ll stand up to the socialists now...
