Fox News Digital reports that up to 600 communist and radical groups, linked to the Democratic Party, are gearing up for nationwide May Day demonstrations across the United States.
The outlet’s investigation has uncovered an extensive network with a collective annual revenue of around $2 billion. This network is orchestrating approximately 3,000 protests and events, which Fox News describes as promoting an “anti-American agenda.”
Protesters are calling on Americans to abstain from work, school, and shopping to make their voices heard.
May Day traces its roots back to 19th-century workers’ demonstrations. Originally known as International Workers Day in 1890, the event was established to honor workers who lost their lives during an 1886 protest in Chicago.
According to Fox News Digital:
In recent years, the Democratic Party has increasingly aligned itself with radical factions organizing through groups like Indivisible, MoveOn.org, the American Federation of Teachers, along with 13 state and local Democratic National Committee chapters, and the California Democratic Party, as reported by Fox News.
The Communist Party of the USA has rallied workers to “rise against MAGA on May Day,” promoting leaflets by the “People’s World,” its Marxist-Leninist publication. The Revolutionary Communist Party has put out a call to dismantle the “capitalist-imperialist system.” The Maoist Communist Union has summoned members to join the “Anti-Imperialist Contingent” at the New York City protests.
Unlike in decades past, the Democratic Party is increasingly associating itself with radical elements organizing through Indivisible, MoveOn.org, the American Federation of Teachers, and 13 state and local chapters of the Democratic National Committee as well as the California Democratic Party, Fox reported.
The outlet reported protests and events scheduled in D.C., Chicago, and more than two dozen other U.S. cities including Indio, California where the annual Coachella music festival is held.
One Democrat said the Democratic Party involvement in May Day with the radical groups comes at their own peril.
“The increasing willingness of mainstream Democrats to align with extremist socialist groups is a major factor in why the Democratic Party is losing the center more and more, and why so many lifelong Democrats find themselves feeling politically homeless,” Democratic strategist Melissa DeRosa told Fox News Digital.
“May Day has a proud history of honoring workers,” she continued, “but too many Democratic organizations have allowed that tradition to be hijacked by the activist fringe — including groups aligned with the Democratic Socialists of America, pushing a fantasy agenda that has failed everywhere it has been tried.”
