Communists are taking over the Democratic Party, openly and swiftly — and the Democrats are letting it happen.

The Democratic Socialists of America’s newly posted platform starts with the idea of taking a

day off.

Who could oppose a vacation day? Only capitalist monsters!

But it quickly pivots, turning the idea of a paid vacation day into a means of displacing capitalism — the most successful system ever devised for lifting people out of poverty — in favor of communism, which has failed every time it’s been tried.

“Imagine taking a day off from work in a future without capitalism,” the party writes.

And don’t worry about paying your bills, the DSA assures their gullible followers, because — you won’t have bills anymore!

Everything is paid for, your health insurance, housing, transportation, energy, retirement. All of it.

‘Abolish the Senate’

But why stop at bills?

Why not free Coachella for everyone?

Why not free (all-inclusive, obviously) vacations?

What kind of human rights are these!

The fact is the DSA has veered past socialism and gone straight for communism.

Leftists often herald Sweden as an example of the policies they want, but Sweden is a capitalist society; Swedes have bills.

It’s North Koreans who have subsidized rent and utilities.

They also have to eat grass and tree bark when the state fails to provide.

We have to call this madness for what it is.

A week ago, DSA co-chair Ashik Siddique openly declared, “Let’s start with abolishing the Senate.”

“We do believe that government should be proportional to the population,” he said. “We just don’t see the point of the Senate.”

Siddique didn’t say this during a rousing speech in the heat of the moment; he said it dryly on CSPAN’s “Washington Journal.”

In fact, the DSA’s latest platform shows its members don’t think there’s a “point” to much of the American system at all.

It’s not just the Senate; they want to get rid of the Electoral College and the Supreme Court, too — and, of course, American capitalism writ large.

DSA thought leaders include Hasan Piker, who on Saturday dressed up like Chairman Mao to deliver a speech to the 2026 Convention of College Democrats.

It isn’t subtle.

It’s not just the aesthetics they love, either.

“Mao Zedong is one of the great leaders of this world, a man who changed this entire universe,” Piker said on a stream last year.

Yes: changed it for the worse.

Mao Zedong murdered more people than Adolf Hitler and ushered in an era of misery and poverty from which China has yet to recover.

Yet every 2028 Democrat will undoubtedly be clamoring to appear on Piker’s livestream.

Where’s the line?

Fight back, Dems

Democrats have been far too weak in the face of this communist threat within their ranks. No, they’re just riding the wave, foolishly hoping the shark won’t eat them.

These kids have enthusiasm that’s badly lacking in the party, and Democrats are hoping to harness that hype to boost their own election prospects.

Even though the DSA platform proclaims “both [parties] are funded by the same criminal class of billionaires and war profiteers.”

Even though Piker last week openly talked about pushing out Democrats who won’t toe his communist line.

Someone has to be first up against the wall when their revolution comes — and it’s going to be the same Democrats who are refusing now to fight back.

It’s way past the time for Democrats to say: These are bad ideas that have harmed millions of people, and we won’t stand for them in our party.

The rest of us can’t wait around and watch them try communism just one more time because the Democrats are scared to come off as uncool.

These people need to be pushed back, hard — and if Democrats can’t do it, the rest of us must.

Democrats can’t stop Kamala Harris — and it’s got the GOP giddy

There are only two lanes to the Democratic presidential nomination two years from now, and one of them is already blocked — by Kamala Harris. Get ready for the Kamala comeback, followed, in all likelihood, by a replay of her crushing defeat by the Republican nominee. Believe it or not, the ex-VP occupies what counts as the “center lane” within the party, and for most of the last three decades that’s the one that’s led to the nomination....

The cold cruelty behind Mamdani’s smug democratic socialist mask

If city government destroys your business, Mayor Zohran Mamdani and local Democratic Socialists of America honcho Gustavo Gordillo want you to know you had it coming. Asked back in April about how his subsidized city-owned grocery stores might harm local businesses, Mamdani smirked, “I look forward to the competition. May the most affordable grocery store win.” Gordillo just echoed this sentiment on Fox News, pontificating, “If one publicly...

Police alleged he started it at the entrance of building used not only by ICE, but also the FBI and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration...
