SHE’S BACK: Ousted Squad Rep. Cori Bush Thinks the Rise of the DSA is Her Ticket Back Into Congress

When far left Missouri Rep. Cori Bush was voted out of office, she vowed to return. Now that the radical left is seeing some wins with their DSA candidates, she thinks it’s her ticket back into congress.

She is one of those politicians who just can’t take no for an answer. Being a member of congress is probably the best and easiest job she has ever had and she is desperate to get back in.

She is even campaigning with a radical ‘Maoist’ who supports the terrorist group Hamas.

FOX News reports:

Ousted Squad Dem stumps with radical activist who defended Hamas, promoted political violence

Former Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., is campaigning to return to Congress alongside a self-described Maoist activist and political organizer whose online videos and social media rhetoric has included urging leftists not to disavow Hamas or Hezbollah, has included calls to “unmake” America, applauded burning the American flag and endorsed political violence.

The activist, Christopher Winston, has built an online presence across numerous platforms under the pseudonym “BlackRedGuard,” posting and appearing in videos about “Maoist organizing in DSA,” attacking leftists who say they do not support “Hezbollah/Hamas” and using rhetoric that appeared to condone political violence.

In one video reviewed by Fox News Digital, Winston asked, “What’s wrong with throwing molotov cocktails at a police station? What’s wrong with throwing molotovs at a police station?”

Bush, an ousted “Squad” Democrat mounting a comeback bid in Missouri’s 1st Congressional District, appeared in a recent social media post standing right beside Winston as he participated in supporting her campaign…

“If you say s— like ‘I don’t support Hezbollah/Hamas’ and call yourself a leftist you lame. All power to all the resistance. Peace through the sword,” Winston, a St. Louis-area activist working with the DSA said in his social media post shaming those on the left who condemn Hamas and Hezbollah.

Bush is also already being investigated for fraud again. Some things never change.

Key House Democrats Caught Flat Footed When Asked About Democratic Socialists’ Plan for America

Key House Democrats including Ilhan Omar, Ro Khanna, and Pete Aguilar were left fumbling this week when asked to comment on the latest radical proposal from the Democratic Socialists of America.

The DSA’s platform, called “Workers Deserve More,” openly calls for abolishing core pillars of the American government including the Senate, the presidency, and even the Supreme Court.

The plan would replace those institutions with a single legislature controlling both an elected executive branch and a judiciary directly answerable to Congress.

When questioned by Fox News Digital, Rep. Khanna quickly distanced himself from the proposal, saying, “I don’t support that. I haven’t read the proposal.”

It was an unsurprising response for a lawmaker trying to play both sides of the ideological split within his own party.

The socialist plan does not stop at dismantling the federal system.

It also seeks to erase U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, pardon all aliens regardless of criminal behavior, and defund the Department of War, the historical term for the Department of Defense.

To top it off, the DSA platform calls for granting full voting rights to felons and even noncitizens, while ending all deportations entirely.

House Dems Suddenly Mum When Confronted By Radical Democratic Socialists of America Plans to Destroy Key Institutions

The Gateway Pundit reported on a recent interview with Gustavo Gordillo is the co-chair of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) in New York City.

Speaking with Fox News host Martha MacCallum, DSA tried to clarify its position on abolishing key institutions in the United States, including eliminating the Senate and replacing the President and Supreme Court with “an executive and judiciary chosen by and subordinate to Congress.”

From DSA’s website:

For the working class to govern, we need a new political system. End political corruption and legalized bribery: get rid of lobbyists, dark money, and Citizens United, and publicly finance all elections. Abolish the Electoral College. Replace the President and Supreme Court with an executive and judiciary chosen by and subordinate to Congress.

During the discussion, Gordillo showed that he does not even understand the difference between the U.S. Senate and the House of Representatives, nor does he understand the system of government he and his fellow radicals are so eager to destroy.

“The United States Senate is an undemocratic institution. It gives more representation to people in smaller states than to the 30 million people in California.”

The Yale graduate apparently thinks the founders created a democracy.  They did not and that was done with forethought.  We are a constitutional Republic.

DSA Activist Linda Sarsour Wants to Replace the Declaration of Independence With Something That Reflects the Values of the Radical Left

Do you remember Linda Sarsour? She was very active in left wing politics during Trump’s first term. She became a leader of the ‘Women’s March’ movement but was ejected after they realized that she is a raging Jew-hater. It’s part of what led to the group’s downfall.

With the rise of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), she has returned. Her views make her a perfect fit for this radical mob.

In a recent video address to her supporters, she fantasized about replacing the Declaration of Independence with something that would better reflect the values of the left.

BizPac Review has details:

A resurfaced video of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s (D) Islamist accountability partner sparked condemnation and further proved Hizzoner to be a “Trojan Horse” for extremists in America…

While too many leaders have turned a blind eye to what essentially amounts to an invasion through democratic naivety, activists like Linda Sarsour have been forthright in expressing intent to supplant the Declaration of Independence with “a document that is our values …”

Pulled from her remarks on a Working Families Party mass call from March 2026, Canary Mission began circulating Sarsour’s view ahead of America’s semiquincentennial that found NewsNation host Katie Pavlich suggesting she “GTFO.”

“… the question historically is gonna be, what were we doing on the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence? What is our generation building?” posited the activist. “And as we know with the Declaration of Independence, really what it was, was a bunch of white guys 250 years ago who sat around and developed a document they called the Declaration of Independence.”

“The question is, can we build something different? Do we have the audacity to sit around and say that we want to build a document that is our values and our principles, and bring millions of Americans around it and say to them, put the politics to the side, put the political parties to the side,” she went on before presenting leftist talking points.

When Socialists Tell You Who They Are, Believe Them

In a Zoom video call in 2023, a leader of the Democratic Socialists of America said, “Our goal is communism.”  It was published as part of a compilation in April 2026.

None of the Democratic Socialists disavowed it.  Nobody posted a “clarifying statement” distancing the DSA from that statement.

So that’s who they are.  Their goal is communism.

The name of that leader is David Jenkins.  He’s a member of the DSA’s National Political Committee, so he ought to know.  

He told us who they are, so we should believe him.

Extreme leftist candidates (including DSA candidates) from past elections include

  • AOC, Rashida Tlaib, Ro Khanna, Ilhan Omar, and Pramila Jayapal.
  • Cory Booker, Ayanna Pressley, Bernie Sanders, and Cori Bush.

Extreme leftist DSA candidates who have popped up in the current cycle:

  • James Talarico in the Senate, who has embraced every nutball LGBTQ/trans theory on the planet, wrapped up in a sugary faux Christian coating.
  • Graham Platner was also running for Senate, after everyone knew about his Nazi tattoo, his active social media account at a site notorious for pedophiles chatting with little kids, and multiple credible allegations from conservative ex-girlfriends.  Platner was finally taken down by another credible allegation, this time from a liberal ex.
  • In the House, a whole tribe of new candidates, including a sociology Ph.D. candidate who started a new “Death to America” campus club, a former associate of the “Blind Sheikh” who masterminded an early bombing attack on the World Trade Center (WTC), and people who think we deserved 9/11.

When people tell you who they are, believe them.

Their strategy is to primary more moderate Dems and take as many of the Democrats’ “safe seats” as possible.  In such races, any actual competition is purely intramural, between Democrat factions.  Republicans always lose these races in November, and sometimes they don’t even bother to run a candidate.  The real battle is the Democrats’ primary.

Cori Bush is the only one from the initial DSA wave of 2016–2022 who “washed out,” by winning primaries for a few years, then losing one to a mainstream Dem.  Clearly, she’s being candid about her DSA identity while she’s trying to get back into House of Representatives.

Recently, her campaign posted a group photo from a July 8 meeting of the St. Louis DSA chapter, showing her next to a communist “influencer” named Christopher Winston.  He calls himself “BlackRedGuard” online and identifies as a Maoist.

This guy thinks landlords should be shot.  He’s suggested he would “execute” a political rival.

From Daily Wire:

Winston can be seen standing next to Bush with a shirt reading “armed minorities.” …

“I’m so proud to have DSA by my side, united in our fight against price gouging, big real estate, and billionaires influencing our politics,” [Bush] said. …

During a stream in March 2024, Winston said that “we’re going to execute you after the revolution” in response to a video leftist activist Shaun King made discussing fraud accusations. Winston said that he hoped that cancer “eats” King’s “a**hole out” and called him an “albino snake.”

In other appearances, Winston argued that “burning a Waymo is not political violence” and argued that landlords should be greeted by “a strongly worded letter in the form of a very hot piece of metal.” …

In other statements, Winston pledged to seize homes from landowners and argued that “the ultimate form of international solidarity is to make revolution in the United States.”

“Communists don’t want to take away your house. We’ll cancel your mortgage. You can have one house, not a dozen. Excess properties will be taken from landlords and distributed to actual families to live in,” he said in one recent post.

When they honestly tell you such things about themselves, believe them.

None of these people thinks America’s institutions have a right to exist in their present form.  America’s institutions, they say, must be torn down and rebuilt into a more diverse socialist/DIE paradise.  These are people who think the destruction of the WTC on 9/11 was not only well deserved, but necessary.  And they think borders shouldn’t exist.

To illustrate this glorious revolutionary mindset, they’re whining about Elon Musk being the world’s first trillionaire.  But I don’t think they would have objected if Hunter Biden had been the world’s first trillionaire.  They have zero interest in cleaning up any of the fraud, greed, waste, graft, and corruption among Democrats.

None of these people thinks Israel has a right to exist at all.  Every square inch of Israel, they say, belongs to the glorious and noble Palestinian people, represented by Hamas and Hezb’allah.  And we found out on October 7, 2023 how that would end.

Cori Bush and other DSA luminaries haven’t distanced themselves from any of Winston’s statements, or challenged the authenticity of that Jenkins video clip.  Their goal is communism.

Mamdani Shows How Clueless He is When Asked About Border and Immigration Policy but Can Only Attack ICE, Admits He’s Never Been to the Border

Socialist New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani humiliated himself in a Saturday interview with the far-left New York Times, showing how clueless he is about immigration and how unoriginal and empty his policy position is. 

During an interview with the New York Times’ Lulu Garcia-Navarro, Mamdani was asked, perhaps for the first time, what he thinks America’s immigration policy should be.

While noting that Darializa Avila Chevalier, one of Mamdani’s endorsed candidates for US Congress in the midterms, “rejects all deportations even of violent criminals” and refers to Borders as a “philosophical concept,” Garcia-Navarro asked for his proposals now that he’s stepping into federal races.

“How do you view, for example, the issue of border security? What border policy should America have? You know, should immigrants be able to claim asylum at the US-Mexico border? Should they be able to enter the country while their claims are being reviewed?” she asked.

But Mamdani gave a word salad answer, pandering to illegal aliens and claiming ICE has “terrorized Americans across this country and others that live in this country.”

“When we talk about immigration, it’s often bandied about as just a political subject for debate,” he said before ironically spewing his radical left-wing political talking points about “legality, consistency, and humanity” and not giving any actual answer.

Leftist Reporter Says She Has No Problem Supporting ‘Secret Nazis’ As Long as They Support Her Extremist Agenda

Emma Vigeland, a far-left reporter and co-host of The Majority Report With Sam Seder podcast, shared that she has ‘no problem’ supporting a ‘secret Nazi’ as long as they vote according to her Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) views.

Just before Senate candidate Graham Platner’s exit from the Maine Senate race after he was faced with new salacious allegations of rape, Platner’s not-so-secret ‘Nazi’ tattoo hat tip did not appear to bother Vigeland.

Vigeland said on a Vox podcast that she doesn’t care if a progressive or socialist candidate has “Nazi” skeletons in their closet.

“I am wary of over-focusing on an individual’s personal character over their platform.”

“You know, I’ve said this before. I don’t really care if say like Bernie Sanders or AOC go home and they’re a secret Nazi, but they go out, and they vote for the right things. We’re talking about politicians……”

Vox host Astead Herndon cut in, sounding surprised, and asked: “You don’t care?”

Vigeland laughed and began, “I mean…”

Herndon continued the awkward exchange, adding, “I’m like….I think these are the lines that people are talking about. Some people care about that exact thing.”

Vigeland stammered, “But, but, but, but why would it matter if they’re public officials and they are doing the right thing in public.”

DSA Official Shows He Doesn’t Even Understand the Difference Between the Senate and the House of Representatives

Gustavo Gordillo is the co-chair of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) in New York City. Today, he appeared on FOX News and showed that he does not even understand the difference between the U.S. Senate and the House of Representatives.

Host Martha MacCallum was trying to clarify his position and the DSA’s position on the Senate because their official platform says that they want to abolish the body.

Gordillo says: “The United States Senate is an undemocratic institution. It gives more representation to people in smaller states than to the 30 million people in California.”

First of all, we are not a democracy and that was a choice the founders made on purpose. They did not want America to be a democracy.

More importantly, the Senate doesn’t represent the people, that’s what the House of Representatives is for. That’s why a large state like California has 52 House members and Wyoming has only one.

The Senate represents the states. Each state gets two senators to represent them in the Senate so that all the states have equal representation.

Los Angeles Spent $60 Million on Nithya Raman Plan to Get Homeless People Off the Street – It Has Housed THREE UNITS

Nithya Raman, the Democratic Socialist (communist) running for mayor of Los Angeles, is also a member of the LA City Council, who chairs their special council on homelessness.

Last year, the city enacted a plan that was championed by Raman, which was intended to get homeless people off the streets and into apartments.

Despite carrying out the plan, which cost $60 million, only three units have been housed as a result.

Los Angeles residents can look forward to more of this kind of success in the future, no matter who wins the current race for mayor, Raman or incumbent Karen Bass.

The New York Post reports:

LA blew $60M on homeless ‘fix’ — it housed just three units

Just three out of a promised 2,000 apartments have been used to relocate the homeless in Nithya Raman’s failed $60 million project to get people off the streets.

Councilmember Raman, the chair of the Los Angeles City Council’s Housing and Homelessness Committee, introduced the Time Limited Subsidy program back in September as a cheaper alternative to Mayor Karen Bass’ Inside Safe Program — meant to get homeless people into an established residence.

Raman’s plan was to lease and move homeless people into 2,000 apartments and subsidize their rent, rather than pay for them to stay in motels or shelters.

However, nearly a year after that plan was launched — with $62.6 million in taxpayer funds behind it — only three apartments are occupied.

The City Council first approved investing in the subsidy model last September as part of its strategy for complying with a court settlement with the Los Angeles Alliance for Human Rights.

Four months later, on January 28, the council approved resources for a redesigned program targeting 2,000 households…

DSA’s New Plan: Abolish Senate, Amnesty for Illegals — Deliver Madison’s “Tyranny”

Are the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) trying to visit tyranny on the United States? Evaluating their new platform, you’d have to say yes if heeding a warning from James Madison, “father of the Constitution.” He famously said in The Federalist, No. 47:

The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.

This, too, is essentially what the DSA’s new platform would establish. As Fox News reported Friday:

According to a source familiar with the DSA’s planning, the organization plans to roll out an update next week to its long-term vision for a U.S. policy platform. The update includes eliminating the U.S. Senate and replacing the president and the Supreme Court with an executive branch and judiciary chosen by and subordinate to Congress.

So to be clear, the DSA’s platform would undermine the Constitution’s prescribed balance of powers. It would enable a one-chamber Congress (no Senate) to appoint a president and judges who are rubber stamps for its agenda.

Under our current system, the president is, of course, chosen by the people. He then can nominate judges, who subsequently must be confirmed by citizen-elected senators before taking the bench. Moreover, Congress is already the most powerful branch, as the House can impeach the president and judges. The Senate can then vote to convict, giving the legislature capacity to remove such officials from office. The other two branches have no such power over Congress.

But the DSA would expand this power precipitously. Its plan would, in a de facto sense, place “all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary” in Congress’ hands. And it’s irrelevant that those “hands” are “elective” (as Congress is), as Madison stressed.

Many would point out that this moves us closer to a parliamentary system, as exists in Britain and Canada. Others would take an even darker view. As a top Yahoo!news commenter writes, responding to the Fox article:

Once you get this enacted, and the socialists are in power, they will NEVER relinquish it. Ever.

A single chamber “congress” will be, by definition, a one party body that will rubber stamp policies of the party.

The model for this is the Soviet Union.

The respondent is alluding to the USSR’s Politburo (Political Bureau), the fallen communist empire’s top decision-making body.
