I don't know about you, but I'm still reeling from the losses of Election Night. I cannot believe that Texas went blue — that was a shocker. There were a lot of races that I had resigned myself to Democrats (or Democratic Socialists) winning, simply because they were running in deep-blue districts. I'm still astounded, though, at the makeup of the 120th Congress.
It seems some of the candidates can't believe it themselves. Darializa Avila Chevalier, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's handpicked candidate for Congress, was part of an October 8 rally celebrating the terrorist slaughter of 1,200 Israelis and the kidnapping of another 251 captives by Hamas. At Columbia, she was a founder of Columbia University Apartheid Divest. As I reported back in June, when she won her primary, Chevalier's group, CUAD, not only held campus protests and encampments to force the university to divest from Israel, but it also published a manifesto outlining its larger goal of the total eradication of Western civilization. "Our Intifada is an internationalist one — we are fighting for nothing less than the liberation of all people," reads CUAD's mission statement. "We reject every genocidal, eugenicist regime that seeks to undermine the personhood of the colonized."
From being a Columbia University encampment organizer to becoming the next Congresswoman for Columbia University's district. 💗 https://t.co/mUXzAu4jPF

Thanks, Dems.
You can learn a lot about Darializa from this post. She is proud to be a cofounder of Columbia University Apartheid Divest. She organized the encampments in that capacity. CUAD has infamously described itself as "Westerners fighting for the eradication of Western Civilization." But that is just the tip of the iceberg. What else does Darializa's group stand for? Take a journey with me into The Barricade, CUAD's publication. Let's see what Darializa's organization is all about.

I'm not going to post the whole thread, but someone pointed out that CUAD's publication included the line, "In the USA, political prisoners like Casey Goonan, Tarek Bazrouk, and Elias Rodriguez are being held on inflated charges and penalties, including vague accusations of 'terrorism' and 'antisemitism' in relation to their alleged actions."
The name Elias Rodriguez didn't ring a bell until I saw this:
CUAD (cofounded by incoming Congresswoman Darializa) calls Elias Rodriguez a political prisoner. His crime wasn’t protest. He murdered a Jewish couple on the street as they left a party at the Capital Jewish Museum in DC.

That's right. So-called "political prisoner" Rodriguez's alleged actions included gunning down two young Israeli embassy staffers outside the Jewish Museum in May. Fox News' Bill Melugin reported that, after he was in custody, he yelled “Free Palestine” and told police where he discarded the gun. He's now being held on inflated charges of "terrorism" and "antisemitism," according to CUAD.
And now one of the founders of CUAD is going to be sworn in to Congress in January.
Sickening. Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim were murdered by Elias Rodriguez in the name of “free Palestine.” Gunned down in cold blood in the capital city of America. When Sarah tried to crawl away, Rodriguez executed her. Just days before their murders, Yaron had purchased a ring for his marriage proposal to Sarah. Two beautiful lives cut short and the communists are celebrating.

@KatiePavlich This story is reflective of a country gone haywire.

@KatiePavlich @DarializaforNY Only a horrible, horrible person would stand with a murderer who stalked and murdered a couple simply because they were alive!! Only a hateful, Anti-American, Anti-Jew, Anti-Christian, pro- Hamas would support such a monster!! #DarializaSupportsMurderers

@KatiePavlich This is the kind of treasonous vermin democrats have elected to Congress.

@KatiePavlich It's completely insane this person was elected to Congress. Something is very, very wrong in this country.

Her post above says it all … she went from a pro-Hamas student encampment at Columbia to the House of Representatives in a year. New Yorkers voted for this.
Unbelievable. Vote for the eradication of Western Civilization, get the eradication of Western Civilization. I don't know how people like her could possibly take an oath to protect and defend the Constitution.
