Today is the anniversary of my first joining the army in 1974 and when I retired from the Department of State in 2012. I was wondering back to a time when the DSA.org used to publish it's elected membership and I took a stroll down the archieves of the WAYBACKMACHINE @ web.archive.org In the Body of the Comment I have dropped in the published list of names from March 3, 2000 which is the last year the DSA published their elected membership in the Congress. They used to have other lists of Senators and a combined list, but this will...

The Democratic Socialists of America are red all over — with a financial situation so dire that some leaders are demanding job cuts and the layoff of staffers just like a corporate America entity, The Post has learned. The DSA — which has led protests against Israel over the Jewish state’s retaliatory response to Hamas’ Oct. 7 terror attack — is deep in a seven-figure hole and desperately in need of a way to stanch the red ink, members acknowledge. “We will cut $500,000 from staff-related expenses. We will first ask for volunteers from both director-level and bargaining unit staff...

Members of Congress belonging to the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) have not condemned the violent anti-Israel protest that targeted the headquarters of their own party in Washington, D.C., this week. The offices of representatives Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich.; Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y.; Greg Casar, D-Texas; and Cori Bush, D-Mo., did not respond to Fox News Digital's multiple requests for comment concerning the violence that erupted Wednesday when pro-Palestinian demonstrators calling for a cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war rioted outside the Democratic National Committee (DNC). None have released a public statement addressing the violence, other than Bush sharing a statement on X...

As we witness the despicable treatment of Jews around the world, we start to wonder if this is what 1930s Germany was like. The Holocaust did not start with deportations and mass murder. It started with a slow and gradual process of exclusion and persecution of Jewish people. But let’s not forget, the measures were deemed legal. The Nazi-led German government, through the legislative process, gradually excluded Jews from public life, the professions, and public education. Of course, the goal of Nazi propaganda was to demonize Jews and to create a climate of hostility and indifference toward their plight, therefore...

Movement of Rank and File Educators will join the Democratic Socialists of America for a 'Ceasefire Now Rally for Gaza' A subsidiary of the nation’s second-largest teachers' union will join the Democratic Socialists of America to protest Israel’s retaliatory strikes against Hamas terrorists. The Movement of Rank and File Educators, which describes itself as a "caucus of the United Federation of Teachers," will cosponsor Friday’s "Ceasefire Now Rally for Gaza" in New York City. The presence of the group, which claims it "fights for social justice" and "empowers workers in schools," could cause problems for its parent organization. The Democratic...

At a pro-Hamas rally in the heart of New York City, speaker after speaker praised the slaughter of civilians that had taken place in Israel on Saturday, after the terrorist group overwhelmed Israeli defenses in an audacious, unexpected raid. “And as you might have seen, there was some sort of rave or desert party where they were having a great time, until the resistance came in electrified hang gliders and took at least several dozen hipsters,” one speaker joked about the Hamas assault on a desert rave, where horrific scenes of murder and rape took place. It was a bracing...

Socialist icon Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) raised eyebrows recently by saying politicians must free the sunscreen industry - from the clutches of the government. In a TikTok video posted last week, the New York congresswoman joined esthetician Charlotte Palermino on camera to make the case that government regulations have hindered the industry. **SNIP** Grace Fors, writing at Socialist Alternative, takes AOC to task for saying the sunscreen industry should be deregulated. Interestingly, Fors doesn’t even bother with the pretense that the FDA is “protecting people” from harmful products; she’s concerned that AOC is helping profiteers in the $110 billion-a-year skin...

Socialist professor and presidential candidate Cornel West wants “massive investments” including “free college tuition” and “Medicare for All” as part of his presidential campaign. Just don’t expect him to chip in on the bill. According to the Daily Beast, and confirmed by West, the Union Theological Seminary professor owes over half a million dollars in taxes. The Green Party candidate has “more than $500,000 in outstanding federal tax liens lodged against him in two states” dating back to 2005, according to the liberal news outlet. He explained, when asked on Monday by commentator Charlamagne Tha God, that not paying taxes...

The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) have a small problem. And it is the problem common to all socialists, as the late great Margaret Thatcher once pointed out.Virginia Kruta@VAKruta · Follow The Democratic Socialists have, it seems, run out of other people's money ...And not only has the DSA run out of money, they can’t seem to figure out why people don’t want to support them anymore.

Around 150 protesters calling for a cease-fire in the Gaza Strip blocked the entrance to the Democratic National Committee headquarters Wednesday night, causing Capitol Police to help evacuate lawmakers from the building. The incident also shut down access to House office buildings. Capitol Police physically removed demonstrators who refused to leave, officers told CQ Roll Call. A video posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, by Jewish Voice for Peace Action shows Capitol Police bike officers pushing protesters toward the sidewalk away from the building. The group said it was there with IfNotNow and Democratic Socialists of America to lay...

The left-wing group Democratic Socialists of America has been under fire over the weekend after calling for the dissolution of NATO's Western alliance and blaming the United States' 'imperialist expansionism' for Russia's unprovoked attack on Ukraine. DSA reaffirms our call for the US to withdraw from NATO and to end the imperialist expansionism that set the stage for this conflict. 'We call on antiwar activists in the US and across the world to oppose violent escalations, demand a lasting diplomatic solution, and stress the crucial need to accept any and all refugees resulting from this crisis.' The statement ended: 'No...

Four female conservative congressional candidates have banded together in a “conservative squad” to combat Democratic socialist candidates across the United States. In a previous interview on “Fox & Friends,” Alabama congressional candidate Jessica Taylor called for a new generation of conservatives to counteract the ideology of Democratic socialists … […] On Thursday, Taylor joined “Fox & Friends” once again with a newly formed “conservative squad,” made up of Minnesota congressional candidate Michelle Fischbach, South Carolina congressional candidate Nancy Mace, and Texas congressional candidate Beth Van Duyne. “This is about bringing the conservative message to the people of the United States,”...

I’ve been asked to compile a list of socialists and communists in Congress. A friend of mine was challenged to name “even two socialists in Congress.” Altogether, if you add in Islamist connections I think about 100 members of the House of Representatives would struggle to pass a low-level background security check..but guess what? There are no security checks in Congress. Here’s my list of 50 of the most obvious socialists in the House, with links to my website Keywiki for the backup evidence. Apologies to the many I’ve omitted. Please email me at trevor.newzeal @gmail.com if you’d like to...

Since Donald Trump was elected President in 2016 and the left-tards started throwing public temper tantrums akin to five year-old’s who do not get their way. The general consensus in the Conservative Patriot Community was “What do we really have to fear from a group of people with purple hair who don’t even know which bathroom to use?” But recent tragic events at the ICE Detention Center in Washington State requires all of us to prudently re-evaluate the REALISTIC THREAT LEVEL these people and their organizations really pose. Sun Tzu tells us in The Art of War that in order...

The Democratic Socialists of America, the political party closely associated with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, called for the elimination of Israel at its 2017 convention. "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free," chanted delegates after they adopted a resolution in support of the BDS movement.

For the last century control of the United States has cycled between the 19th Century Democratic and Republican parties. Voters choose between the old ideas of the Democratic Party and the old ideas of the Republican Party. The two parties are mired in the same old partisan conflicts election after election. The Democrats in particular seem more interested in playing partisan political games than in dealing seriously with the nation's problems. Republicans are increasingly following their example. Millennials need to decide whether they want to continue the politics of their grandparents' generation or replace the 19th Century parties with 21st...

The open extremists operating in the Democratic Party's midst. It turns out the man arrested for running a Muslim terrorist training compound in rural New Mexico is the son of an influential Democrat-connected jihadist imam who was close to the Blind Sheikh who orchestrated the bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993 that left six people dead. Siraj Ibn Wahhaj Jr., who is 39 or 40, of Clayton County, Ga., was arrested after authorities found 11 hungry, filthy children living in squalid conditions in a remote part of New Mexico. Wahhaj, who has been charged with felony child abuse,...
