They must be grassroots. Doesn’t everyone have a few billion to throw around? From Jason Curtis at One City Rising via zerohedge.com:
How the Working Families Party sells itself as “grassroots” — with IRS-documented, publicly admitted “common control” revealing it’s really a Soros-financed political money washer.
In New York politics, there’s one machine that towers above the rest. No, not the Democratic Party—it’s the Working Families Party, the most powerful minor party in America. Its name sounds wholesome enough—who doesn’t support “working families”? But behind that branding lies a $2 billion tax-exempt laundromat that’s anything but local, grassroots, or honest.
Take Zohran Mamdani, their current belle of the ball.
After winning his race, he announced on NBC: “I don’t think we should have billionaires.” Hilarious considering Mamdani’s “grassroots” revolution was fueled by over $2 million in PAC and organizational spending, much of it courtesy of the very billionaire class he allegedly opposes.
This is the theater of modern politics: denounce wealth while being powered by it. And the actors know their audience. They’ve learned that if you slap “grassroots” on the packaging, voters won’t check the label.
But let’s check it anyway.
Esteemed CPUSA (D) party member comrade kommissar Barnie Sandlers rolls around in a red Audi R8 at $170,000 MSRP.
It doesn’t have custom hammer & sickle trim though.
Selling workers utopia to useless idiots pays well and NO redistribution.
Fight the oligarchs, comrade.
