DEMOCRAT NATIONAL COMMITTE: CADRE OF COMMUNIST EXPERTS TO EXPLAN EVERYTHING
There should be no doubt in the minds of any American citizen that the progressive communist democrats are trying to destroy America from within and seize perpetual political power.
The People’s Cabinet: Former Labor Secretaries Slam Trump’s Failing Economic Agenda Today, the DNC hosted a press call with DNC Chair Ken Martin, former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich, and former Acting Secretary of Labor Julie Su to call out Donald Trump’s reckless economic agenda. With Trump putting the economy on recession watch, it’s clear that Trump and his billionaire Cabinet – including his shadow president Elon Musk – will do nothing but hurt working families and tank economic growth with their reckless agenda. This press call was part of the DNC’s recently-launched “People’s Cabinet” initiative, which features issue experts speaking to the American people about what’s really happening across the country as Trump fills his administration with unqualified billionaires, Fox News hosts, and mega-donors. “A majority of Americans did not sign up for what they’re getting from Donald Trump. They didn’t sign up for an economic meltdown. They didn’t sign up to … have their health care, nursing homes, public schools and Social Security targeted,” said DNC Chair Ken Martin. “That’s why the DNC today is launching the People’s Cabinet, which is made up of experts, leaders, and everyday Americans from across the country who will cut through the noise and equip communities with the reliable, accurate information that they need and deserve.” “We are in a crisis right now because of Donald Trump and his administration. They have created an economic crisis,” said former Labor Secretary Robert Reich. “Not only do we have an employment report that shows that manufacturing jobs are almost stagnant in terms of where they’ve been and the Labor Department adjusted its figures downward for the last couple of months. … I’ve almost never seen something like this happen.” “Donald Trump does not have a good track record on [manufacturing]. When he left office, manufacturing jobs were down 200,000 just within his first term … bringing back industry requires not just one blunt instrument, not just throwing out words like tariffs and doing them in a completely unstrategic fashion,” said former acting Labor Secretary Julie Su. “And so just watching an administration that has no real interest in governing, no real interest in making sound policy decisions, but rather just, you know, throwing out terms and words and hoping that people aren’t paying attention.” <Source> |
An unelected opposition force to thwart the vote of the majority of citizens…
A permanently hostile opposition force, akin to a shadow government, poses a grave threat to the effective functioning of any democracy. This faction actively works to undermine the efforts of elected representatives, sabotaging progress for the sole purpose of obstructing change. When such opposition is entrenched in perpetuity, it can severely limit the government’s ability to enact policies that benefit the public. The constant infighting and partisan gridlock waste valuable time and hinder the country’s growth and prosperity, leaving the citizens to suffer the consequences. In a healthy democracy, the balance between cooperation and healthy opposition is essential. Still, when that balance is tipped by a destructive force determined to block progress, it prevents the nation from reaching its full potential.
The historical failures of relying on “experts” and their desire to centrally plan the American economy and seize political control over American citizens….
While Marxist ideology emphasizes the empowerment of the working class and the dismantling of hierarchical structures, progressive communist democrats, particularly in the 20th century, placed significant trust in specialists to manage and oversee the economy. Central planning, a cornerstone of these regimes, required expert input to direct production, allocate resources, and set economic goals.
However, the historic failure of experts and central planning became apparent over time. These centralized systems struggled to respond effectively to the dynamic needs of economies, leading to inefficiencies, shortages, poor decision-making, and death, despair, and misery for hundreds of millions of individuals.
Though well-educated, experts often lacked experience and an on-the-ground understanding of local conditions, and their top-down directives frequently failed to account for the complexities of human behavior and market realities.
This paradoxical dependence on experts raised questions about the true nature of power in these societies, as it often resulted in a concentration of authority within a technocratic elite rather than distributing power among the masses.
While experts were seen as essential to the success of socialist projects, their control over central planning sometimes undermined the very democratic principles communism sought to establish, creating a tension between the ideal of equality and the practical realities of governance, and ultimately contributing to the economic and social failures of communist regimes.
The experts and their history of failure…
Robert Reich, often hailed as the “dwarf communist” has a history of placing the interests of workers over those of a corporation’s shareholders and management, apparently believing in the Marxist ideology that positions businesses as an inherent enemy of labor, locked in a perpetual struggle between the bourgeoisie and the proletariat, and requiring the heavy hand of government regulation to promote labor and economic justice. His anti-business stance is overly simplistic and counterproductive, as he alienates key stakeholders and ignores the complexities of the capitalist free market system. Reich is an "economy killer" that fuels extreme revolutionary polarization.
Despite Reich’s focus on labor issues, Reich did little or nothing to address the growing wage stagnation in the U.S. during the 1990s during the so-called economic boom of the Clinton administration. There is little doubt that, while he is well-educated, Reich’s intellectual approach to economic policy resulted in a disconnect between him and the working-class people he purports to represent—Reich is the classic prototypical ivory-tower smart/stupid person.
By any metric, Julie Su is an incompetent, inconsequential failure that manages to check progressive communist democrat identity politics checkboxes as a woman, Asian, and a progressive labor lawyer who co-authored a paper on critical race theory, “Critical Coalitions: Theory and Praxis.”
Perhaps the most significant criticism of Julie Su’s tenure as California’s Labor Secretary is her handling of the state’s unemployment insurance system, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2020, the California Employment Development Department (EDD) was overwhelmed by a surge in unemployment claims, leading to massive delays in benefit distribution. Thousands of Californians struggled for weeks or months to receive their unemployment checks, causing financial hardship for many. Su also failed to address issues of fraud, which totaled approximately $31 billion.
In September 2023, Su was allowed to serve as Biden’s “Acting” Secretary of Labor without facing any Senate confirmation hearings. As “Acting” Secretary, Julie Su forgave $32.6 billion of California’s debt to the federal government, for which she was primarily responsible.
Bottom line…
An active cell of progressive communist democrats is trying to take down the United States from within.
We are so screwed.
