much for your support. The reason why I talk about
this New York City mayoral primary race we don't live
in New York City. But it is my opinion, and
it's just my opinion. I could be wrong. I mean
I usually don't hold opinions that I think are wrong,
So if I am wrong, I will change my opinion.
But my opinion on this is that Democrats are right
now at a national level, they are at an inflection point.
And this is well, I guess it's true, you know,
across the board throughout all the states. Last hour, we
talked about, you know, the listening tour, the Democrats that
attempt to get you know, rural voters back, you know,
into their camp. We've talked about that over the last
two years, Democrats are going to have to fight internally.
They're going to have to take back control of their
party from the radical left that has made common cause
with the Islamists. This is the Red Green alliance, Okay,
the communists and the Islamists. Read is the commies obviously,
and the Islamists are the Green and they are They've
made common cause. They've banded together because what is their
their unifying goal. As I always say, the issue isn't
the issue. The issue is the revolution. That's the thing
that binds them together. And if Democrats are not down
with the revolution tearing apart the entire institution of America,
then they're going to have to fight this from the inside.
I don't believe they can do it.
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 1: Dennis Prager has talked about this for decades. Conservatives vote
their principles, Leftists vote their principles, but liberals do not.
They do not, and they will keep voting for the
leftists rather than fight the leftists because they'd rather go
down the leftist path than acknowledge that they are actually
pretty similar in a lot of their beliefs to conservatives.
And so that's what informs my opinion and that's why
this guy, Zorn mom Dani, the self described Democratic socialist,
he's a communist. Okay, he's a comedy. He's the presumptive Democrat.
He actually they just called the race for him. I know,
it's been like what two weeks or something, but they
do that stupid rank choice voting system in New York's
mayoral primary, and so it took them this long to
finally count all of the votes after they get moved
around based on, you know, the ranking order that voters decide.
So he's been so he says that he's not a communist.
I'm just a Democratic socialist and that's not a communist,
and the so called fact checkers are all saying, yeah,
totally not a commy. However, as Jerry Dunleavy at justthnews
dot com outlines in great detail, a very lengthy piece.
It'll take you like twenty twenty five minutes to read
the whole thing, but I have pulled the highlights for
you so you don't have to, but you can check
it out just thenews dot com. But as the record shows, yeah, yeah,
he's communists. Mendani sorry men. Danny is a member of
the Democratic Socialists of America and denies that he's a communist. However,
I would point out rule number one about communists, they
are liars, commis lie.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: An investigation by Just the News shows that in tweets, speeches,
affiliations as well, Mamdani at his corps holds a strong
affinity for straight up communism, praising and campaigning with a
Marxist state senator in New York, declaring that New York
City needed a mayor just like a famously young Indian
mayor from the country of India who was a member
of an explicitly Marxist communist party. He praised the bloody
nineteen seventeen Russian Revolution, which led to the established establishment
of the Soviet Union cost millions of lives. He argued
about the need to quote seize the means of production
in a reference to a core Marxist principle, and he
praised famous radical commy figures and more. Here is an
audio clip. This is from hang on a second, I
have at some place. Yeah, he declared. This was him
at a Young Democratic Socialist of America Winter conference in
February twenty twenty one.
Speaker 2: Here's what he said, What.
Speaker 3: The purpose is about this entire project. It's not simply
to raise class consciousness, but to win socialism, and obviously
raising class consciousness is a critical part of that, but
making sure that we have candidates that both understand that
and are willing to put that forward at every which
moment that they have, at every which opportunity that they're given.
We have to continue to elect more socialists, and we
have to ensure that we are unapologetic about our socialism.
There are also other issues that we firmly believe in,
whether it's BDS right or whether it's the end goal
of season, the means of production, where we do not
have the same level of support at this very moment.
And what I want to say is that it is
critical the way that we organize, the way that we
set up our you know, set up our work and
our priorities, that we do not leave any one issue
for the other, that we do not meet a moment
and only look at what people are ready for, but
that we are doing both of these things in tandem,
because it is critical for us to both meet people
where they're at and to also organize for what is
correct and for what is right, and to ensure that
over time we can bring people to that issue the
ramifications of victory. Here is the difference between life and
death for so many of our brothers, sisters and family
beyond the binary and across this borough of Queens. It's
the difference between having cash bail anymore about, it's a
difference between having sex where it be decriminalized. And with
every battle that we fight as socialists, we need to
remember what the stakes are and ground ourselves and and
why those stakes are important and critical to us as individuals.
Speaker 1: By the way, he was doing this virtually. He gave
this address virtually. I mean, I guess maybe pandemic rules
were still in play. And his backdrop was space, like
he was beaming in from outer space. It's very weird,
but he says it right there. The purpose of the
project is to raise class consciousness and win socialism. He said,
we got to elect more socialists who are unapologetic in
their socialism, whether it's support for BDS, which is boycott,
divest sanctions against Israel, whether it's support for BDS or
the end goal of seizing the means of production. And
when you say that you are going to seize the
means of production, that is communism straight up, that's Marxism.
And he says, we don't want to leave any one
issue for another. What I think Ben Shapiro calls this
the Omnik cause.
Speaker 2: In other words, all.
Speaker 1: These different causes that are part of the intersectionality that
creates the coalition to do the work that the leftists
are doing.
Speaker 2: And James Lindsay.
Speaker 1: Has called this, and I repeat it darn near every day.
The issue is never the issue. The issue is the revolution.
That's why you've got Islamists marching in the New York
City Gay Pride Parade hand in hand with the Marxists, right,
because the whole point of the project is to tear
down the Western civilization infrastructure. That's the point. It's always
the revolution. The target is always Western civilization and its
free markets. That's always the target. That's why people like,
don't you if you went to Gaza as a gay person,
they would throw you off a roof and stuff. First off,
I don't know if they do know that, but if
they do know, it doesn't matter, because the point is
this place stinks. We hate everything about this place that
some of us have actually opted to come to, but
we hate everything about this place, and so we have
to dismantle it because it's oppression and we're the oppressed
because I'm non binary or something that is straight up Marxism.
On NBC's Meet the Press, he gave an explicit denial
that he was a communist when he was asked by
Kristen Welker. He says, no, I am not. He says,
I call myself a democrat socialist in many ways, inspired
by the words of doctor King from decades ago, who said,
call it democracy or call it democratic socialism. There has
to be a better distribution of wealth for all God's
children in this country. And then PolitiFact weighs in saying
these claims that he's a COMMI are false. The outlet
PolitiFact said some politicians and social media posts falsely label
him as a COMI, and that expert say he hasn't
espoused key tenets of communism, such as government takeover of
industry and private property. Um, yeah, actually I did. I
just he did do that. I just played you the SoundBite.
All right, if you're listening to this show, you know
I try to keep up with all sorts of current events,
and I know you do too, and you've probably heard
me say, get your news from multiple sources. Why Well,
because it's how you detect media bias, which is why
I've been so impressed with ground News. It's an app,
and it's a website and it combines news from around
the world in one place so you can compare coverage

The New York City mayor's race matters for two reasons.
Number one, if this man, Danny Guy.
Speaker 2: Is successful.
Speaker 1: Elected, successfully elected, not successful with his policies, because that's
not going to happen, but you will see other candidates
adopt those policies, spreading communism across the country.
Speaker 2: That is correct.
Speaker 1: In fact, I think it was Senator Chris Murphy from
Connecticut who's already saying that we really need to look
at this man, Danny guy and.
Speaker 2: See what he's tapped into.
Speaker 1: Maybe we could learn some lessons from this whip or snapper,
you know, Like that's problematic, guys. Number two, when the
New York City economy is shattered, the rest of the
country is going to be expected to bail them out
again like they did in the early eighties to keep
them from bankruptcy.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, as part of the big beautiful bill, they got
the freaking salt deductions in there, Like, why are we
rewarding these states that are so poorly run with high taxes?
Speaker 2: Why are we supporting this anyway?
Speaker 1: Them Danny is a Marxist. Okay, he's a communist and
he's trying to distance himself from this this tag now,
which tells you, by the way, everything you need to
know about why communism sucks is because people don't ever
want to be identified as one. Why, well, one hundred
million plus body bags is a good place to start.
Mem Danny has repeatedly praised his fellow quote comrades in
the DSA, the Democratic Socialist of America, especially he is
close with New York State Senator Julia Salazar.
Speaker 2: Salazar is a.
Speaker 1: Self described Democratic Socialist, but has also repeatedly declared that
she is an avowed Marxist. She played a role in
helping men Danny win his twenty twenty race for New
York State Assembly. Mem Danny repeatedly touted that he was
endorsed by Salazar, and the two collaborated on issues and
virtually campaigned together in the lead up to the election,
virtually being I think like on the web. There's a
tweet from him December twenty twenty where he says, you know,
people ask him, so, what kind of mayor does New
York City need right now? And then he shares a
Twitter thread from the Indian the Nation of India, the
Indian Puducury State Committee of the Communist Party of India.
I think they're communist guys. So he shares this tweet
from comrade Aria Rajendron, the new mayor of some town
in India hashtag left alternative, hashtag communist?
Speaker 2: What else?
Speaker 1: He wants to tear down the statues of Christopher Columbus
in New York City, And then he offered up three
options on his Twitter poll. Who are the options to
replace Christopher Columbus? He wants to recognize Italian Americans, right,
so the Italian American community has a rich history in
Astoria queens. Who should we honor instead? And then he
offers these these options. Number one Tony Bennett noted communist. No,
I'm kidding, that's the singer. Number two Walter Audissio not
a singer, although he may, I don't know, like in
the shower or something. Maybe he does carry a tune,
don't know. And number three haha, A bit of a
trick question here, or a trick answer. It's not one person,
it's two. Sacho and Vanzetti executed, yeah, by the government.
Tony Bennett, the famed singer Nicola Saco and Bartolomeo or
Bartolomeo Venzetti. They were executed for murder in nineteen twenty
seven in a case that stirred up protests proclaiming their innocence.
Now Walter Odissio is an interesting pick for this list.
The obituary by The New York Times described Odissio as
the quote communist partisan who claimed credit for the execution
of Italy's World War II fascist dictator Benito Mussolini. He
has also repeatedly praised the radical far left Black Panther
leader and noted Marxist Fred Hampton, quoting him in August
of twenty twenty saying you can jail revolutionaries, but you
can't jail the revolution. Hampton was a member of the
Black Panther Party and was a Marxist Leninist, but again,
mem Danny totally not a Comi. He has repeatedly posted
approvingly about the Russian Revolution of nineteen seventeen in the
fall of Zar Nicholas the Second, which really was the
last thing that the Commis were able to pull off,
which ushered in the communist rule in Russia and the
establishment of the brutal Comi led Soviet Union. He mentioned,
as I played in that SoundBite, the end goal of
seizing the means of production that is right out of
Karl Marx's Dos Capital. He repeatedly uses the term means
of production. It's become a central pillar of Marxist theory.
Capital is dead labor. That vampire like only lives by
sucking living labor, and lives the more the more labor
it sucks. That's marx property, family, religion, and country and
nation would fall before the righteous onslaught of the working
class as it seized control of society and government. That's
according to the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation. Ma'm danny
declared his affinity for seizing the means of production, But
he's not a kami. Remember rule number one. Comi's life.
Here's a great idea. How about making an escape to
a really special and secluded getaway in western North Carolina.

Big write up at Justthnews dot com by Jerry Dunlevy,
Ma'm danny and fact deny he's a communist, but his
own words say otherwise, And that is the headline, and
that is true. In December twenty twenty, Me'm Danny tweeted
out that the Democrat Party, well yeah, he was responding
to a Democrat Party tweet that said the Biden Harris
administration is committed to rebuilding an economy that welcomes everyone
as full participants, and mem Danny responds by saying, if
we want everyone to be full participants in the economy,
we need worker ownership of the means of production.
Speaker 2: That's not the.
Speaker 1: Soft socialism. When you own when the quote workers own
the means of production, that is communism. Okay, socialism is
simply the way states on the way to full bore communism.
I don't even really like, I don't even consider these
things to be different. I really don't. I view the
socialist tag as as a marketing gimmick. I really do,
because there's no As I've said many times, there's the
left can never go too far. That's how you end
up with one hundred million dead people based on a
communist ideology, because they can't stop themselves. There's no limiting principles.
Ma'm Danni loves to call his fellow left wing and
socialist candidates his comrades, which admittedly is a term that
other people use as well, but it is really prolific
in communism. One example, he tweeted his congratulations to Lee J.
Carter back in November twenty nineteen when the Virginia Socialist
won reelection in the Virginia House of Delegates, saying quote,
congratulations to my comrade Carter four VA on his reelection.
He won his seat in twenty seventeen without the Democratic
establishment and kept it after two years of red baiting attacks,
not once wavering in his commitment to socialist politics from
New York to Virginia. We are building a better world now.
If you look at Carter's Twitter profile, he describes himself
as a queer communist.
Speaker 2: See, I would not.
Speaker 1: Be confused at any differences between socialists and communists if
ukamis and socialists were in seemingly confused about the differences
as well.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: He also described himself as a former politician, current union thug.
Probably not a man, but definitely not a woman. A
secret third thing, that's what he describes himself as. Mam
Danny is also trying to flee from his pro commy
sentiments as he runs for mayor now, and one of
his ideas is to you may want to sit down
for this completely brand new idea. Soak the rich, right,
which is what you do before you eat them.
Speaker 2: So he wants to hit all of the millionaires and billionaires.
Speaker 1: He wants to hit them all with higher taxes, wants
to tax all the billionaires, although he told I think
it was Kristen Welker on NBC that he doesn't think
there should be any billionaires, which again, like the only
way that you can preclude that from happening, or prevent
that from happening, is by seizing all of their money,
which is also a key component of communism. So again
he is lying. He is lying about his Marxism. But
that's what Marxists do. But there's this other thing going on,
this red green alliance. So we've gone over the red part.
What's the green part? Well, the green part is the
marriage of the the Marxists with the Islamists or Islamists whatever. Okay,
the people who are out there chanting for Palestine and
then they started chanting for Iran and whatever like, these
are the people that have now hooked themselves together with
the Marxists. And as part of that, you know, intersectional coalition.
You also have the LGBTQ plus minus sign equals hashtags
or whatever, like, You've got this old this coalition. Why
because they share one common goal, which is the destruction
of free market capitalism in the West.
Speaker 2: That's why Israel is targeted as.
Speaker 1: Well, not just the because of the anti Semitism and
the Jews, but also because they are sort of this
outpost of Western civilization in an area of the world
that really doesn't have a whole lot of that kind
of a model going on. So when this man, Danny
guy refuses to condemn the slogan globalize the Intifada and
he tries to, you know, sidestep this and no, it's
really it's a it's a higher call for resisting the
oppression and the occupation and all that. No, no, no,
the Intifada when you're talking about really any kind of
geoglobal events, The Antifada was where Palestinians went around murdering Jews,
blowing themselves up, blowing up pizza parlors and public transport.
That's what the Second Intifada was. That's what the Antifada is, Okay,
it is targeted attacks against Jews. Several Senate Democrats told
The Jewish Insider yesterday that calls to globalize the Intifada
are unacceptable and must be condemned. Amid concerns from Jewish
leaders and organizations over this Memdanni guy in his defense
of the slogan. Again, this is from Jewish Insider dot com.
Sentimentarity leader Chuck Schum, who has thus far not endorsed
mem Danny, told JI that he plans to meet with
Memdanny in a few weeks. Richard Blumenthal, Democrat from Connecticut, says,
I don't know what Memdanni's position is on it, but
I certainly think that the call to spread the Intifada
is the kind of incitement that can lead to extremist violence.
You think calls for violence might lead to calls or yeah,
calls for violence might lead to violence. That would be
huge if true. Can we get any data to confirm that?
Speaker 2: You know?

author of Woke Army, the left green alliance that is
undermining America's freedom. She's also the founder of the Pearl Project,
which is named after Daniel Pearl, who was murdered by
al Qaeda, who's a Wall Street Journal reporter, and she
writes at Fox News two days ago, many people are
wondering how Zoran Mamdani, a thirty three year old socialist
Muslim who wants to defund the police, globalize the Intifada,
and destroy capitalism, has emerged as the Democratic Party's nominee
for the New York City mayorship with leaders like former
President Bill Clinton fawning over him. To understand his political assent,
you have to trace the red, green, blue spider's web
that brought him here. A critical moment goes back to
a Friday night in two thousand and eight, nine twenty
eight PM. December twelfth, two thousand and eight, ACL youth
civil rights lawyer and Beson sent an email to former
Clinton administration senior advisor John Podesta. Right, this was again
two thousand and eight. Okay, so December twelfth, So what
happened after eight? That would have been Obama?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 1: Obama's election. Beeson was executive director of US Programs at
George Soros's Open Society Foundation, where she said she all
oversaw one hundred and fifty million dollars in annual grants
to quote promote human rights, social justice, and accountability nationwide
and what the incoming administray is asking them what the
incoming administration could do to address domestic national security policies
and practices that unfairly target Muslim, South Asian and Arab
communities in America. So remember we got the War on terrorism,
the invasion of the Afghanistan. Then Iraq and then Obama
comes in. She attaches a memo in this email to
Badesta from Farhana Caira, then executive director of Muslim Advocates,
a group based in San Francisco, along with Aziz Huk,
then the director of the Liberty and National Security Project
at the William J. Brennan Center for Justice. Both of
these organizations received grant money and funding from Soros's Open Society.
The email represented the culmination of a decades long ideological
drive that began with Muslim international students arriving in the
US in the nineteen sixties, not just to study, she says,
as my father did at Rutgers, but to lay the
institutional groundwork for political Islam or Islamism in the US.
By the nineteen eighties, they had established a strategic base
at five hundred Grove Street in Herndon, Virginia, which was later,
by the way, investigated by the FBI for alleged ties
to the Muslim Brotherhood and Palestinian Islamic Jihad group seeking
to destroy Israel and America in order to build a
global caliphate. There, they launched a campaign to weaponize the
term Islamophobia to silence critics of extremist Islam. I remember
this period very well. The point was to racialize Islam
and frame Muslims as the oppressed and embed illiberal ideologies
within America's liberal institutions, including the Democrat Party. Soros's philanthropy
staff has pumped tens of millions of dollars into various
organizations such as Atlantic Philanthropies, the Proteus Fund, the Muslim Advocates,
the Brennan Center, the ACLU, the National Security and Human
Rights Campaign, and the strategy was narrative warfare. Starting in
late eight Soros pumped some twenty million more into a
field wide communications hub to arm Muslim groups and leftist
media allies with messaging tools. The recipient was called Rethink Media.
It's a nonprofit out of Berkeley, California, because of course,
co founded by progressive political operatives Peter Fahrenbach and Lynn Fasselt,
then a consultant to Democratic donors including the Open Society,
Proteus Fund, Plowshares Fund, Carnegie Corporation, Piper Fund, Atlantic Philanthropies,
and other progressive donors that have since pumped money into
Rethink Media. One narrative that they pumped out there was
that Muslims were under attack in the West, and the
Democrat Party would defend Muslims. That's one of the narratives.
In late twenty ten, the Open Society was giving Podesta's
Center for American Progress two hundred k for a new
Examining Anti Muslim Bigotry project that would document structures underlying
the Islamophobia movement. The memo detailed plans to do opposition
research on groups like the Foundation for Defense of Democracies
and the Middle East Forum, which track Islamic extremism. The
project description noted that progressives were caught off guard earlier
that year when New York City residents opposed the building
of a ground zero mosque near the World Trade Center.
Remember that scandal. Progressives were like.
Speaker 2: Wait, what huh?
Speaker 1: And they didn't know how to react because they didn't
want to be accused of Islamophobia. Right, So they crank
out strategies reports that smear national security experts as islamophobes
and portray any criticism of Islamism extreme Islamist extremism as bigotry. Right,
they bring on people like the radical activist Linda Sarsour,
who launched Empower Changed under the umbrella of another big
money Democrat group called Eneophilanthropy to advance quote Muslim power.
These ideas, shaped through critical race theory, merged with the
narrative building efforts of sorrospacked groups to portray Muslims as
perpetual victims. By twenty seventeen, with Trump in office, past
and present grantees escalated the anti Trump protests. Remember the
Muslim ban. That was them too. They were at the
No Kings protest.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: That's why this is important. I advise you read the
entire piece Foxnatis dot com piece by Azra Nomani how
socialist Muslims pulled off a twenty year takeover of the
Democratic Party. All right, that'll do it for this episode.
