This Is Why Democrats Won’t Oppose the Socialist Takeover of Their Party

The Democrat Party and the Democratic Socialists of America are becoming indistinguishable from one another.

That’s clearly the case in New York City as a wave of socialist House candidates backed by openly socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani won primary elections on Tuesday against incumbent Democrats.

In some cases, both leading candidates were quite far to the Left, but Democrat primary voters simply voted for the one who was more fervently anti-Israel—which is absolutely becoming the biggest litmus test in Democrat Party primary fights.

One of Tuesday night’s victors in a House primary election, Darializa Avila Chevalier, is truly off the deep end in every way. Chevalier backs full prison abolition, which she is unable to defend coherently, though still fervently supports it. She’s opposed to deporting any illegal aliens, even rapists and murderers.

Oh, and she founded a college campus organization that’s mostly committed to rabidly hating Israel, but also in favor of “fighting for the total eradication of Western civilization.”

Victor Davis Hanson Sets the Record Straight on Tucker Carlson and Graham Platner

Welcome to post-American, post-Western New York.

It’s often a mistake to infer large, national trends from a single slate of elections in a politically one-sided city. But it’s hard to dismiss this one as merely a blip in the overall national electoral picture.

Socialists have been winning in one big, blue city after another with little resistance from the Democrat Party establishment.

These elections aren’t aberrations;........
