The ramifications of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s stunning primary defeat of longtime Queens Democratic boss and Congressman Joe Crowley (D-NY) extend well beyond the confines of Capitol Hill.
The 28-year-old member of Democratic Socialists of America—who shockingly won in New York’s 14th congressional district on a leftist platform of Medicare for All, abolishing ICE, and a federal jobs guarantee—inspired a major boost in membership for the organization on Wednesday.
According to Lawrence Dreyfuss, a program associate for DSA, the organization saw a surge of 1,152 new memberships on Wednesday—about 35 times more sign-ups than on an average day.
The last major membership bump DSA experienced was in the month following President Trump’s election, during which time they had about six times more sign-ups than in the previous month.
DSA has undergone a renaissance of sorts in the Trump era, ballooning in size from some 5,000 members in November 2016 to 40,000 nationwide.
The left-wing group’s growth has been attributed in part to broader resistance to the new administration and wider acceptability of the “democratic socialist” label championed by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).
“The people of NY-14 demanded more from its representative than empty promises and deep pockets,” Christian Bowe of DSA’s National Political Committee said after Ocasio’s win. “We’re proud of this victory, and we know this is only one of many more to come.”

Hillary and Co have been blinded by their greed, they care for money more than the Revolution.
These people are the ones that will drag you out into the street with machetes as class enemies.
Will they screwer her like they did Bernie?
Here’s a few countries the Democratic Socialists of America would mold the USA into:
And just look how successful and free these countries are!
People’s Democratic Republic of Algeria
Democratic Republic of Timor
Democratic Republic of Ethiopia
Lao People’s Democratic Republic
Democratic People’s Republic of Korea
Democratic Republic of São Tomé
Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka Sahara Sahrawi Arab Democratic RepublicN/A
Socialism is about sharing. But, only sharing other people’s assets. Never sharing what’s “mine”. Because, it’s always the other people who have stuff to share.
After a while, the other people, and “me”, have nothing left to share, like in Venezuela.
This unmasks a longstanding agenda, which is a good thing.
I call it winning!
Yeah my goodness 40,000 people in a country or 350 million. Start fretting now and let me know when you stop. By the way, this life isn’t forever and worrying over such incredible nonsense is just a waste of time. And professional worrying doesn’t pay well
If they run a DSA candidate for President in addition to the Democrat candidate, I think it’s great.
Can anyone get that list and post it for the CWII target list?
The Rats are in deep trouble. They are getting crazier by the day and their true colors are showing and normal people don’t like what they’re seeing.
like jumping out of a frying pan and into a fire, they must love the heat?
Constitutional Republic.
If they could put white people in camps, they would.
><
That’s the truth.
Ohh itll spread like wildfire on college campuses and in big cities.
Also, almost NOBODY in that district showed up to vote; it was something like 20% of eligible voters.
SPOT ON!
So few get it, even here on FR.
It’s always kumbaya time for them, and will continue to be until they get their throats slit.
White people simply can’t process that there are millions of hateful, disaffected nonwhites who hate them vehemently simply by dint of their skin tone.
Did you catch PDJT’s reaction to Crowley’s loss? Keyboard warning =>

Wow! Big Trump Hater Congressman Joe Crowley, who many expected was going to take Nancy Pelosi’s place, just LOST his primary election. In other words, he’s out! That is a big one that nobody saw happening. Perhaps he should have been nicer, and more respectful, to his President!

Yeah this life isn’t forever but i want my children and my children’s children to live in a free republic as well. Don’t you?
The fact of the matter is that they control Seattle and when she wins they’ll have a seat in the House of Representatives. Small beans, sure, but you can bet that Obama and his cabal are behind all this pulling the strings.
True, but they think there is a chance that they will be recognized as the “good” ones, and let get by when the guillotine blades start dropping.
the rat party has been taken over by a soft coup
