In case you doubted me, Just The News reports: "Many Democratic Socialist leaders are self-professed communists, DSA caucus statements show." The article begins:
In the wake of the shocking victory of several Democratic Socialist candidates in the New York City primary elections, President Donald Trump is warning that the candidates are “hardcore Godless communists” and a serious threat to the United States. He received immediate pushback, not least from CNN’s chief White House correspondent Kaitlan Collins, who said that Democratic Socialist candidates are not communists.
“While Democrats themselves have been wrestling with what Tuesday night means for the direction of their party, socialism, much less democratic socialism, is not communism,” Collins said on air earlier this week.
The same Democratic Socialists of America often identify as Marxist or Communist
Collins may have missed the fact that many of the leaders of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), belong to internal party caucuses that explicitly define themselves as Marxist and advocate for achieving communism.
These groups control a significant portion of the DSA’s National Political Council, the body responsible for governing the party, according to a review of party records, social media posts, and caucus platforms. In fact, 10 members of the 25-person body belong to a caucus that espouses communism or have explicitly supported the ideology in public statements.
The article then goes on to discuss specific DSA leaders and politicians who have either said they are communist, support communist goals, or praise communist leaders.
