US News: August, 2025 - Inside the Democratic Divide: Old Guard vs. Progressive Wing

Edited Democratic Party Influence Commentary

The Democratic Party's influencing members( DNC Leadership Team )—a recipe for socialist democratic reform? If your leadership embraces a union-backed leader and thinks Minnesota is the lead for the US: "I don't think they make it difficult at all. At the end of the day, the difference between the Democratic Party and the Republican Party is that we're a big tent," Martin said. "We have lots of people in that tent from all of the different ideological wings, from conservative Democrats to centrists, to progressives, to these new leftists. And the reality is I've always said that you win through addition, not subtraction. You don't win by pushing people out of your coalition, you win by bringing people into your coalition." The umbrella might simply not be covering the needed class—the workers—and might simply add water to the drowning, as the latest polls show 33% approval and potentially includes the elites only. So, you have the party of the dinosaurs and the young , with a central message: Trump is bad. So, does it matter if you say impeach, find a hoax, try to kill, or fight? Well, 33% still think it is, so are the old guard and the young socialist democracy —in other words, rewrite Lenin's playbook, not make everyone work and distribute equally, but tax the rich and redistribute? The party is stewing with tension between young blood and their decorated elders. But the real fault line may have more to do with vigor than with age.

Perhaps it's about what you offered the people. New York and California are not the US, so well, doomed for now. Pelosi, Schumer, Clyburn simply no longer cut it, and Jeffries, Bernie, and the young guard do not have the support needed, and Newsom is simply not telegenic for the nation. A cognitive test the solution ? It may wipe out the entire Trump-hating crew, and redistricting is no longer needed.

Immigration, redistricting, gerrymandering: According to a 2022 poll by The Economist and YouGov , two-thirds of Americans considered gerrymandering to be a "major problem" in the United States, with only 23 percent describing it as a "minor problem." All to maneuver political power. With the census counting all persons living in the US, immigration has a direct impact on how many seats are available for Congress by state, so the Democrat loyalists are all in support as it brings into play 25 additional seats. "Most Americans are still unaware that the census counts ALL people, including illegal immigrants, for deciding how many House seats each state gets!" Elon Musk wrote March 7 on X, his social media platform. "This results in Dem states getting roughly 20 more House seats, which is another strong incentive for them not to deport illegals." Here is the current picture , with some states only represented by one party. Redistricting by law— this is what it says : Following each decennial census, the 435 seats in the House are apportioned—or divided up—among the 50 states (U.S. Const. amend. XIV, § 2, cl. 1; 2 U.S.C. § 2a(a)). Accordingly, to comport with the constitutional standard of population equality among districts, discussed below, at least once every 10 years, most states are required to draw new congressional district boundaries in response to changes in the number of Representatives apportioned to the state or shifts in population within the state. This process is known as congressional redistricting. Here is some detailed overview , until Texas started a war , supposedly, and here are all the litigations.

And the Democrats' answer: If approved, California could temporarily bypass its independent redistricting commission and draw more Democrat-friendly districts to help balance GOP gains nationwide. Newsom says this move protects democracy, while critics warn it risks undermining voter trust. Here is a read from the WSJ: the Democrats again may see more potential to lose , but some people never learn. They even make pierogies political. Chef Krem Miskevich has barred the famed lawyer from buying pierogis because of his political views, and liberals are applauding him for it. Welcome to pierogi politics. It is the same distasteful politics that is tearing apart this country, only with an added carbo load. Some more details here.

The Democratic Party Shutdown Strategy: We've got ANTIFA and Weathermen in Congress, and a shutdown to please the 5%—is that a winning strategy? Perhaps a clear indication that the Democratic Party no longer exists. It is a Kimmel–Colbert–Springsteen sound-setting orchestra, with tunes from Rosie, Joy Reid, The View and Psaki, and MSNBC and other leftist commentators. Schumer and Jeffries are no longer relevant; the squad rule is on. Thank you, Bernie and Soros, but the shutdown will hopefully silence all government waste, a shutdown DOGE? If we miss you, we let you know, but for now, it is the Republicans in favor 70:30. Here's an explainer: fight, fight, fight against Trump—the only reasoning the Democrats offer these days. We need to elect politicians, not litigators and Soros activists. Axios has reported throughout the year how Hill Democrats have been besieged by an increasingly angry base demanding that they " fight harder " and "do something" about Trump. – In February, shortly after President Trump's inauguration, it was voters blowing up Democrats' phone lines with demands to "fight back" against DOGE. – In March, it was angry crowds gathered at town halls to chew Democrats out for purportedly not doing enough to resist Trump, which some lawmakers compared to the rise of the Tea Party. – By July, Democratic lawmakers were expressing concerns about their base demanding they put themselves in harm's way to draw attention to the administration's use of physical force. But it looks like the Democrats are united, with presidential candidates proposing and supporting the radical stance. Just wonder: Gavin Newsom urged Democrats to stand firm amid the government shutdown Friday, saying, "You lose leverage, you lose this country." ANTIFA leverage? The shutdown —essential and non-essential—or why are there government non-essential functions? Are the SPLC (no leftists), ACLU, ANTIFA , and the Redneck Revolt all part of non-essential feeding grounds? And what about academia ? Or are we at the start of a John Brown revolution, with unidentified actors/founders ? Portland, Oregon: Portland Oregon —why is ICE and the Trump administration so focused on Portland? It looks like an Eldorado to live in the state and city , but also a hotspot of the rebellion, because the elite rulers use it to provide what? A one-party state for many years . Oregon hasn't always had a lack of affordable housing, costly and poor-performing public schools, high taxes and heavy regulations on businesses, rampant drug addiction and homeless campers everywhere. Whom do you blame for all of this? Perhaps because people move there to live a hippy life—I mean a happy life—or the political mix. The people in rural areas don't care if the cities get waxed by anti-fascists. A 2008 analysis by political statistician Nate Silver on states' political ideology noted that the state's conservatives were the most conservative of any state (more so than Utah or Tennessee) and that the state's liberals were more liberal than any state (more so than Vermont or D.C.). For now, a Trump judge ruled in favor of ANTIFA . Let the demolition go on—happy winter. 'Justice has been served': Gov. Tina Kotek, others praise judge's ruling blocking troops to Portland. FBI Political Affiliations: Is the FBI politically Republican-charged? There is some social media claim that since the 1950s, no Democrat was leading the FBI. If you are counting James Comey, Robert Mueller, and Christopher Wray as Republicans, you perhaps need to note there is a litany of Trump haters in the Republican Party. But for good measure, it is called the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and nominations are approved by Congress and controlled by the AG and the US intelligence committee. Wonder why this is a question when Trump is president? Looks to me, with 90% lawyers on committees, like a straightforward legal matter. And shifting priorities —left and right have extreme activism . It is just a question of who you ask, so why not check them both accurately? But mental sickness is not part of an ideology—unless some publishers are politically biased.
