As you know, Democratic Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez shook up the Democratic party last week with her surprise victory over party leader Joe Crowley in New York City:
Congrats on the win, @Ocasio2018. The number of votes cast tonight—in what has been the lowest turnout district in the country under Rep. Crowley—proves that working class people are hungry for a voice in politics. pic.twitter.com/iw9CG1T9pt

So, now that Dems are set to embrace the agenda of the Democratic Socialists, let’s check in on what they’re really about, shall we? Here are a few photos and videos from their recent “Abolish ICE” march in NYC:

“CAGING CHILDREN IS A CRIME” which is a sign we did not see when President Obama was putting kids in kennels:

And when they say the quiet part out loud: “No borders, no nations, no racist deportations”:
Back up back up//
We need freedom freedom //
All these racist ass agents //

Tell us more, Dems, that “open borders” isn’t your thing:
Scary. A constituent just confronted me and told me I support open borders. I told her that’s not true and I’ve never said that. She said “@FoxNews said you do.” Guys, this is what we are up against. We aren’t battling ideology. We’re battling misinformation.

Well, the great thing about America is that companies can even make money off of the socialists:
