Charlie Hurt of The Washington Times, appearing on Fox News’ Tucker Carlson Tonight program, stated that the new crop of Democrat candidates, such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are Communists. This is a term we haven’t heard used very often on Fox News or anywhere else, apart from Trevor Loudon, Cliff Kincaid, and some other right-leaning sources, but it’s a term that’s quite accurate when describing leftist Democrats, from Barack Obama to the socialist candidates running in the Democratic primaries.

In fact, the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), some of whose members harassed DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen in a restaurant, is extremely close to Democrats in Congress as well as the Communist Party USA (CPUSA). They’re virtually the same, and that can be accurately said of just about any socialist organization in America. Books by Trevor Loudon and others extensively and undeniably document these connections.*
With incendiary rhetoric, Socialist-communist Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) has encouraged people to harass Trump Administration members in public places, and this has led to apprehension over possible violent clashes that might take place as a result. Harassment in public at the homes of people with whom one disagrees politically? The possibilities are frightening.

Socialists in America use the term “Democratic” to mean what it means in countries like the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (i.e., North Korea). It’s not really Democratic there nor in Bernie Sanders’ socialism. It is essentially communism, and many Democrat politicians are somewhat openly associated with communism, whose principles and goals have not changed since the Cold War, nor are communists more loyal to the U. S. now than they were then. These days, communists have the advantage of having no government agencies publicly going after them as such, and they know they can rely on protection under First Amendment free speech rights, especially as understood by liberal judges.
For the information of those who perhaps haven’t noticed, the Democratic Party today is further to the left than ever and is essentially in the grip of communism. Communists are always looking to a future of violent seizure of government, and the overthrow of capitalism. They still view the Russian Revolution of 1917 and Marxism-Leninism as positive things. These organizations also include Maoist groups who are pro-China. If they and their ignorant followers were to gain power, they would not hesitate to do however much violence their leaders wanted, having seized power by committing atrocities. This would follow the pattern of the Russian Revolution and also the French Revolution: Mob action leading to maximum violence during and afterward. These people would not hesitate to murder American citizens in order to advance their agenda if they believed they could get away with it. Communist true believers believe they would be entirely justified by whatever means might seem necessary to achieve their ends.
Communists today are no less subversive than they ever were, but they have influence over several sectors of our society, and currently enjoy those protections: liberal academia, mainstream media, labor union leadership, etc. So, we have Antifa, Black Lives Matter, etc., in (temporary, it would seem) alliance with radical Islam, such as the Muslim Brotherhood (CAIR, Hamas, etc.) and now they are openly anti-white racists.
Opposed to this, we have “normal” Americans, who value American liberty and sovereignty, and are not willing to sign our nation over to foreign-controlled or subversive interests. They also value stability, law and order, and peace and quiet, and aren’t overly sympathetic to phony victimhood, or the snowflake mentality. They still respect independent action and rugged individualism, as well as traditional femininity and masculinity as gender appropriate. They (mostly) know that there are not more than two genders and that climate change is a leftist hoax and fraud.
Also, many must wonder if civility can ever be restored. Is compromise possible? It has been in the past and has contributed to American success and prosperity. But how do you compromise with people who not only hate you but are trying to stir up hate among different groups, depending on group identity? Make no mistake, the communist elite hate the productive middle class and ordinary Americans. They do not respect their rights nor the Constitution.
Leftists will not succeed if indeed it does come to civil war because such rebellion can and will be put down with overwhelming force. First, because “normal” Americans won’t put up with it. Second, because the typical conservative or non-leftist household is well armed and trained in firearm use, and third, because this is America and not Europe. The strength of the socialist-communist movement is far less than the media would have us believe.
Note to young socialists who think the country would be better under socialism: Where has actual socialism ever worked? Nowhere. If socialists took over America, you, the millennials, would be among the most sorely disappointed, and there would be no recourse available for you. Remember, under socialism, the most clever deceivers and criminals would soon be in charge. The promised benefits are never delivered. The people are enslaved. The violence never ends. Nor does the widespread poverty. Study Soviet Stalinist communism, Mao’s Chinese communism, Hitler’s National Socialism (Nazism), and George Orwell’s novel 1984 for an idea of how things would go. Remember that socialism has brought about the murders of over 100 million people by their own governments since the beginning of the 20th century.
