For decades, Democrats positioned themselves as champions of law and order.

However, from the Clinton-era 1994 Crime Bill to Obama’s calls for secure borders, the Democrat party once promised to protect Americans from criminal activity and illegal entry. However, under the Obama and Biden administrations, something has clearly changed. Sanctuary cities exploded, violent repeat offenders were seeing their most serious charges plea bargained away, and illegal alien criminals were being shielded from ICE. Violent repeat offenders were being returned to our communities. Why?

The answer may be more calculated—and more dangerous—than most Americans realize.

From Public Safety to Political Strategy.

Progressive communist democrats have increasingly aligned themselves with individuals who have broken U.S. immigration laws—even those who commit identity theft, fraud, or violent and gang-related crimes. In places like New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Oakland, St. Louis, and Chicago, local policing policies now prevent local law enforcement from cooperating with federal immigration authorities, even in cases involving violent criminal behavior.

Just one example: In 2023, a Venezuelan illegal immigrant arrested multiple times in NYC—including for assault—was released again and again under sanctuary city protections. He later appeared in a viral video assaulting a police officer in Times Square. And yet, progressives continue to argue that such individuals are victims of a “broken system.”

Is Chaos the Point?

On closer observation, this acceptance of lawlessness appears to be part of a deeper political agenda.

By supporting marginalized criminal populations and leaning into identity-based narratives, far-left progressive communist democrats—deeply rooted in Marxist/Leninist theory—seek to fracture the American social fabric. They frame enforcement of immigration law as “oppression” and paint law-abiding citizens as complicit in systemic injustice. The result? Division, confusion, and fear as illegal aliens breach U.S. sovereignty and invade America.

There is little doubt that the Cloward-Piven strategy, developed by two communist professors, is being used to overwhelm the legal system to force a mass amnesty of illegal aliens rather than deport them.

This climate of chaos and lawfare not only weakens trust in law enforcement but also sets the stage for more extreme reforms—like disarming the public in the name of “gun control,” expanding federal oversight of local police, or growing the power of unelected bureaucracies.

The Rise of the Criminal-Judicial Complex

Enter the criminal-judicial complex: a tangled alliance of activist lawyers, public defenders, advocacy groups, and progressive activist judges. As cases flood the courts and the system gets clogged, the demand for “alternatives to incarceration” rises, many of which funnel billions into programs overseen by ideologically motivated non-governmental organizations. Meanwhile, the criminal bar—especially in major cities—makes its living defending a growing pool of repeat offenders, including illegal immigrants who dodge ICE holds.

This isn’t just neglect. It’s policy.

The 2026 Election Wildcard

With the 2026 midterms approaching, all eyes are on the House and Senate majorities. Could soft-on-crime immigration policies be part of a lawfare strategy, meant to destabilize conservative leadership, overwhelm state resources, and reshape the national narrative before Americans head to the polls?

I say yes, while the progressive propagandists in the legacy media dismiss the idea as a conspiracy. Regardless of where you stand, the facts speak for themselves: violent criminals are being protected, laws are being ignored, and those who raise concerns are being labeled as “extremists.”

Bottom Line

The question isn’t just why progressive communist democrats are rejecting the law and leaving communities defenseless by protecting criminal illegal immigrants. The real question is: What are they preparing for?

Because if legal contravention and political chaos are the plan… It’s working.

We are so screwed,
