DSA platform seeks to abolish US Senate, ICE, presidency, Supreme Court, US borders under socialist utopia

In a Sunday interview with Fox News's Shannon Bream, Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) National Co-Chair Megan Romer was pressed on several of the organization's platform positions.

During the interview, Bream presented Romer with a list of DSA platform positions and asked her to respond with “true or false” answers.

Romer said “true” when asked about abolishing the Senate and agreed with replacing the presidency and Supreme Court “as we now know them.” She also responded “absolutely” when asked about abolishing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

When Bream asked whether the DSA supported “abolishing borders and giving amnesty to anyone currently in the U.S. illegally,” Romer replied, “As a long-term plan, yep.”

Romer also endorsed defunding the Pentagon, saying “absolutely” when asked about the proposal. She agreed that abolishing prisons “at least in large part” was part of the organization’s long-term goals.

Asked about government or public ownership of most large corporations, Romer responded, “Yeah, absolutely.”

Bream also asked Romer if the Democratic party should be worried about the organization's directions for the party

“The establishment Democrats should be worried about the voters and about what the voters think and about what the constituency thinks, and … right now they have not been delivering, and our candidates are and have been, and it’s resonating with voters,” Romer replied according to The Hill

“I also have been told a lot of times by Democrats, don’t vote third party. It’s wasting your vote,” the DSA co-chair continued. “So, we run on the Democratic ballot line where it makes sense. We run independents sometimes where that is a viable possibility, but it’s a ballot line. And what matters is what the voters think. And the voters are overwhelmingly choosing our candidates.”

Her comments come as a swath of DSA candidates sweep establishment democrats in primary elections with Claire Valdez (NY-7), Darializa Avila Chevalier (NY-13), and Brad Lander (NY-10) prevailing with DSA and Mayor Zohran Mamdani backing, alongside state wins by Aber Kawas, Samantha Kattan, David Orkin, Eon Huntley, Christian Tate, and Illapa Sairitupac.

Melat Kiros also defeated longtime incumbent Diana DeGette in Colorado’s 1st District, while Chris Rabb won Pennsylvania’s 3rd. Janeese Lewis George took the D.C. mayoral primary.

Republicans have seized on the rise of the DSA and have taken the opportunity to brand democrats as out of touch radicals. Speaker of the House Mike Johnson based Democrats as crazy in a X post.

"Far-left Democrats confirm their agenda is to shred the U.S. Constitution, seize private property, and make Americans vulnerable to violent attacks at home and abroad - among many other radical policies," he said. "This is the contrast for America between common sense and CRAZY."

Texas senator Ted Cruz in response to Romer's comments just replied: "These people are insane.”
