House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Louisiana Republican, spoke with reporters following the Democrat sweep of Tuesday’s elections and the installation of a Muslim socialist as the leader of the world’s financial capital.
In a Facebook post, Johnson stated:
“A 34-year-old Marxist is now the leader of the Democratic Party and it is a very dangerous road for them to go down. I want to say this because there is a lot that’s been said about the Mamdani campaign. It is very easy to run and win as a socialist, right? All you do is promise everything to everyone for free. What a great message that is. Boy, that really resonates with people who don’t study history.”
He added, of the few existing moderate Democrats:
“But they will be no match for the coming communist wave taking over their party right now. The energy is on the side of the Marxists.”
This is not so much a blue wave, as a Marxist one, as the Speaker stated. And it is far more dangerous than any tsunami.
Yet I am not sure Johnson understands that a great many folks now believe this is a good thing.
Sadly, that shouldn’t be surprising after decades of academic indoctrination, the trashing of our Founders, and explosive demographic change.
Front Page Magazine’s Daniel Greenfield recently wrote a short piece featuring eight charts that clearly illustrate the staggering changes in the demographics of New York.
These charts show the decline in the numbers of Jews, Italians, and Irish as a percentage of the Big Apple’s population and the corresponding increase in the percentage of Muslims.
They show the increase in the number of New Yorkers who were not born there, and the corresponding increase in the number of residents who do not speak English in their households.
Similarly, they depict the steady decrease in the number of (non-Muslim) religiously affiliated inhabitants.
In days of yore, immigrants to New York (and the U.S. in general) were overwhelmingly Christian and Jewish, today’s are increasingly Muslim.
Yesteryear’s immigrants desperately wanted to become “Americans” and only wanted a chance to make something of themselves. New ones are largely uninterested in assimilating and often prefer government handouts.
Incredibly, after 9/11, many Americans converted to Islam — and millions more Muslims have entered the U.S. in the 24 years since the attacks.
But these rapid demographic changes are why Democrats champion illegal immigration and why most Republicans don’t seriously try to stop it. Demography is destiny. For good, bad, or indifferent, that always has been the case and always will be the case.
Hilariously (if pathetically), just one day after his victory, Mamdani, the man who promised “free” everything to the bedraggled masses to secure their votes, took to X, posting a video begging his supporters for cash to fund his “transition” into power.
