Should America reserve its highest offices for natural-born citizens?

By Christine Coleman | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice “You shall surely set a king over you whom the LORD your God chooses, one from among your countrymen you shall set as king over yourselves; you may not put a foreigner over yourselves who is not your countryman.” — Deuteronomy 17:15 When God brought the children of Israel into the Promised Land, He established clear laws and commandments for their governance. Among them was the explicit requirement that rulers must be chosen from among their own people — no foreigner born outside the nation was permitted to rule over God’s covenant people. This principle was repeatedly tested and its violation brought severe consequences. In 1 Kings 11, King Solomon’s heart was turned away from the Lord through his many foreign wive...

Protest Leaders Call for Reshaping America’s Founding Institutions at Washington Rally

By: Libby Bandelin | The Federalist ‘We want to tear the American system down,’ one protestor told The Federalist. A week before the 250th anniversary of America declaring independence, more than 1,000 people assembled at the nation’s capital to make a declaration of their own: their vision to dismantle America’s founding institutions. “All of US Next250 National Mobilization” protested the Trump administration, debuted new “founding documents,” and re-envisioned America as seen by Marxist revolutionaries. “It’s not just a day, it’s a movement, and it’s been three years in the making,” Saru Jayarman, a co-organizer of Next250, told The Federalist. “This is the time to set the tone for what the next 250 years will be.” Dozens of activist organizations assembled...

Why capitalism and the Constitution still offer America’s best path

By Russ Minary | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice “From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs.” - Karl Marx. Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels published “The Communist Manifesto” in 1848. The popular quote above appeared in Marx’s "Critique of the Gotha Programme” written 1875.  This article will examine how that idealistic worldview has – or has not – worked out in reality. Spoiler alert: it hasn’t.  In the last few election cycles, Democratic Socialists like NY Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani, VT Sen. Bernie Sanders or MN Attorney General Keith Ellison have been elected to very powerful positions in government. Here in Colorado, Leftist Democratic Socialist Melat Kiros just won the Colorado House Democrat prim...

The American Dream is slipping away and socialism is filling the gap

By Brian C. Joondeph | Commentary, American Thinker Not long ago, the American Dream followed a familiar script. Graduate from school, find a job, buy a modest home, start a family, and gradually build a better life than the generation before you. For many young Americans today, that script increasingly feels like historical fiction. A recent survey from Rasmussen Reports reveals a striking generational divide: younger Americans are far more likely than older voters to view socialism favorably. According to the survey, 44 percent of voters under 40 believe socialism is a better system, compared with only 12 percent of older Americans. Recent election results in New York City confirm Rasmussen’s findings.  For Americans who grew up during the Cold War — or ...

Socialists and Progressives Score Stunning Primary Victories in Colorado

By: Matt Vespa | Townhall The game has changed. While known for being tough, Colorado is now another incubator for Marxist radicals. The Democrats face a full-blown insurgency. Sen. Michael Bennet (D-CO), once considered a sure shot for the 2026 gubernatorial nomination, lost to Attorney General Phil Weiser. The biggest shock was the defeat of Rep. Diana DeGette, who has served in Congress for nearly 30 years, and was ousted by challenger Melat Kiros, who, among many things, said that we deserved the 9/11 attacks  Advertisement Bennet had a 30-point lead in the polls but was gradually ground down by attacks that portrayed him as a DC insider.  https://twitter.com/DecisionDeskHQ/status/2072146163755528311 https://twitter.com/ClayTravis/status...

Democratic Establishment Sounds Alarm Over Socialist Strategy Inside Party

By Steven Richards | Just the News What would Mike Dukakis say? Taking advantage of hating Trump, the Democratic Socialists of America have admitted implementing a long-term strategy to exploit the Democratic Party’s ballot access, alarming establishment figures and prompting pushback from more moderate members of the party. The Democratic Socialists of America have adopted a strategy to exploit the Democratic Party’s ballot access to boost their own candidates at the expense of incumbents, a plan which achieved remarkable success in New York City this week.  The victory of two DSA-backed candidates and one former member delivered a shock to the Democratic Party establishment, which has begun to call for better policing of the party’s primaries against candidates who...

Nationwide May Day Protests Spotlight Communist And Socialist Linked Activist Groups

By Asra Q. Nomani, Preston Mizell, Michael Dorgan | Fox News Democratic Socialists of America chapters, groups funded by China-based tycoon Neville Roy Singham lead the network with Democratic groups including the California Democratic Party. FIRST ON FOX: Some 600 groups, including hard-line communists and groups affiliated with the Democratic Party, are mobilizing all over the country today to demonstrate for May Day, socialism's high holy day. A Fox News Digital investigation has identified a sprawling "red-blue" network with combined annual revenue of about $2 billion organizing some 3,000 protests and events and advancing what critics describe as an anti-American agenda. They have called for Americans to skip work, school and shopping. At the center of th...

Capitalism vs socialism: What the global data reveals about human well-being

By Sanjai Bhagat | Commentary, The Daily Signal Capitalism versus socialism has become a topic of intense debate in senior political and business circles. The recent election of socialist-leaning candidates in major U.S. cities highlights the contemporary relevance of this topic. A recent Gallup poll finds that Americans view capitalism more positively than socialism; the 54% viewing capitalism favorably is down from 60% in 2021. Americans view socialism more negatively (57%) than positively (39%), with little movement in these attitudes over time. How have the people of a country fared that have adopted socialism? Not so well—the evidence below indicates. How have the people of a socialist country that have adopted capitalism fared? Very well—again, t...

Democratic Socialists of America Push Pro Maduro Protests as Ties to NYC Mayor Draw Scrutiny

By Jerry Dunleavy | Just the News The Democratic Socialists of America has long been closely-allied with the Maduro regime. Now, Maduro is sitting in a prison cell in a city presided over by a NYC mayor who is a member of the DSA. The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), which counts New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani as a key member, has been closely allied with Venezuelan strongman Nicolás Maduro for years, and is now leading protests in the U.S. against the communist dictator’s arrest by the United States as Maduro sits in a NYC jail cell. The DSA International Committee’s website touts its “Venezuelan Solidarity” and its “Solidarity with the Bolivarian Revolution!” — led by former Venezuelan socialist strongman Hugo Chavez and continue...

The Warning in New York’s Vote: A Nation Forgetting What It Knew

By C. J. Garbo | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice New York’s decision to elect an openly socialist mayor is not an isolated event. It is a symptom - an unmistakable sign that one of America’s greatest cities is entering the next phase of a cycle human history has recorded with brutal consistency. Every society that embraced central planning, concentrated state power, or moral relativism eventually arrived at the same destination: decline, disorder, and suffering that could have been avoided had wisdom not been discarded for ideology. Human history is the basis for the prediction. Not fear. Not partisanship. History. Every civilization that tried to bend reality to political fantasy - rather than align policy with truth - followed the same trajectory. People tolerate rising cost...
