路易斯安那州共和党众议员、众议院议长迈克·约翰逊在三名极左翼候选人在纽约州初选中胜出后发出了严厉警告,称共产主义如今已“登陆我国本土”。
“这是一个非常严峻的时刻,”约翰逊在周三的新闻发布会上表示。“每个美国人都需要觉醒,认清这场威胁。”
“马克思主义者提名了一些有史以来最激进的候选人参选,他们正在竞选国会议员席位,”他继续说道。“这场反叛的左翼运动正在崛起。”
约翰逊发表上述言论之前,进步派候选人布拉德·兰德和达里亚利扎·阿维拉·谢瓦利埃在纽约市市长佐赫兰·曼达尼和美国民主社会主义者(DSA)的支持下,击败了两名民主党在任议员。第三名社会主义候选人、纽约州民主党众议员克莱尔·巴尔德斯在曼达尼和民主社会主义者的背书下,赢得了一个空缺的国会席位。

极左翼浪潮:曼达尼背书的候选人推翻民主党建制派在任议员
鉴于民主党在这些深蓝选区拥有压倒性优势,这三名极左翼候选人都有望在11月的选举中获胜。这批候选人强烈批评以色列,支持废除移民海关执法局(ICE),并计划实施财富税,还有其他一系列进步派政策主张。
阿维拉·谢瓦利埃是一名32岁的活动人士,曾参与2023年10月7日哈马斯袭击后席卷哥伦比亚大学的亲巴勒斯坦抗议活动。她此前已删除的社交媒体帖子遭到美国有线电视新闻网(CNN)核查,其中她宣称“以色列不存在”,表达了对开放边境的支持,并表示“所有驱逐出境都是错误的”。
这位曼达尼的盟友曾表态支持废除监狱运动,在接受Substack出版物《纽约编辑委员会》采访时,她拒绝回答一名随机杀人的男子是否应该入狱的问题。
她还因在2021年前副总统告诉危地马拉国民不要非法入境美国后,称前总统乔·拜登为“强奸犯”,并写下“去他的卡玛拉·哈里斯”而受到审查。
在一场重大爆冷中,阿维拉·谢瓦利埃终结了众议员阿德里亚诺·埃斯帕利尔的政治生涯。埃斯帕利尔是颇具影响力的国会西班牙裔核心小组主席,他曾强调自己是首位当选国会议员的前非法移民背景人士。
约翰逊还对纽约州民主党众议员丹·戈德曼的落败表示惋惜。戈德曼是一名犹太议员,在竞选的最后几天因支持以色列而遭受反犹太主义攻击。戈德曼的挑战者、得到曼达尼背书的兰德也是犹太人,他已承诺将在国会中支持巴勒斯坦事业。

从沃瑟曼·舒尔茨到戈德曼:民主党在任议员为保住席位而战
“这已经不是你父辈时代的民主党了,”约翰逊在谈到两名在任议员的落败时表示。
自曼达尼去年爆冷当选纽约市市长以来,这位众议院共和党领袖已多次就极左翼日益增长的选举影响力发出警告。他将崛起的社会主义派别与共和党进行鲜明对比,为11月的中期选举造势。
“几个月来我们一直在说,这是一场对比鲜明的选举,”这位议长说。“我们一直在说,这是常识与疯狂之间的对比。这正是当下的情况。他们每天都在给我们提供新的例证。”
约翰逊还关注了民主党国会候选人迈·王,这位社会主义候选人正在挑战任职多年的加利福尼亚州民主党众议员多丽丝·松井。一段视频显示,作为萨克拉门托市议员的迈·王拒绝面对美国国旗并背诵效忠誓言,这一行为引发了 backlash(强烈反对)。
“全国各地涌现出了一批小型的‘曼达尼式人物’,这是一件危险的事情。这不是玩笑。我们当下正在为拯救共和国而战,”约翰逊说。

约翰逊发出警告之际,极左翼主播哈桑·皮克尔于6月初表示,曼达尼背书的候选人取得全面胜利,将有助于推进社会主义运动更广泛的政策目标。
“很长一段时间以来,我认为我们离社会主义非常遥远,或许现在仍然很遥远,但我们现在拥有了比以往任何时候都更多的机会,”皮克尔在布鲁克林为民主社会主义者背书的候选人举行的集会上说道。
Johnson warns communism is ‘on our own shores’ after far-left candidates win New York primaries

Speaker Johnson cast the rise of Democrats’ socialist flank as a ‘dangerous’ threat to US
By Adam Pack Fox News
Speaker Mike Johnson warns against the rising influence of socialist and Marxist candidates in the U.S., criticizing their policies as a threat to American foundational principles.
NEW You can now listen to Fox News articles!
House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., issued a stark warning after a trio of far-left candidates prevailed in New York’s primaries, saying communism is now “on our own shores.”
“It is a very serious time,” Johnson said at a news conference Wednesday. “Every American needs to wake up and understand the threat.”
“The Marxists have nominated some of the most radical candidates to ever run for office, and they’re running for Congress,” he continued. “The insurgent left is on the rise.”
Johnson delivered the remarks after progressive hopefuls Brad Lander and Darializa Avila Chevalier, backed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), unseated two Democratic incumbents. A third socialist candidate, State Assembly member Claire Valdez, D-N.Y., won an open House seat with Mamdani and the DSA’s endorsement.

FAR-LEFT SURGE: MAMDANI-BACKED CANDIDATES OUST DEM ESTABLISHMENT INCUMBENTS
All three far-left candidates are poised to win election in November given Democrats’ overwhelming advantages in the deep-blue districts. The slate of candidates is fiercely critical of Israel, supports abolishing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and wants to enact a wealth tax, among other progressive policy stances.
Avila Chevalier, a 32-year-old activist who participated in the pro-Palestinian protests that rocked Columbia University following Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, attack, has come under particular scrutiny for since-deleted social media posts, reviewed by CNN, in which she claimed, “Israel doesn’t exist,” expressed support for open borders and stated, “All deportation is wrong.”
The Mamdani ally, who has voiced support for the prison abolition movement, declined to say whether a man who randomly murdered another individual should go to jail during an interview with the Substack publication, The New York Editorial Board.
She has also faced scrutiny for describing former President Joe Biden as “a rapist” and writing, “F— Kamala Harris,” in 2021 after the ex-vice president told Guatemalan nationals not to illegally cross into the country.
In a major upset, Avila Chevalier ended the political career of Rep. Adriano Espaillat, the chairman of the influential Congressional Hispanic Caucus who has highlighted his background as the first former illegal immigrant elected to Congress.
Johnson also lamented the defeat of Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y., a Jewish lawmaker who faced antisemitic attacks over his support for Israel in the final days of the race. Lander, Goldman’s Mamdani-backed challenger, is also Jewish and has vowed to support the Palestinian cause in Congress.

FROM WASSERMAN SCHULTZ TO GOLDMAN, DEMOCRATIC INCUMBENTS ARE FIGHTING FOR SURVIVAL
“This is not your father’s Democrat Party,” Johnson said, pointing to both incumbents’ losses.
The top Republican has repeatedly warned about the far-left’s growing electoral power since Mamdani’s upset mayoral victory last year. He cast the ascendant socialist flank as a stark contrast to Republicans ahead of November’s midterm elections.
“We’ve been saying for months it’s a contrast election,” the speaker said. “We’ve been saying it’s a contrast between commonsense and crazy. That’s exactly what’s going on. They give us new illustrations every day.”
Johnson also called attention to Democratic House candidate Mai Vang, a socialist who is running to unseat longtime Rep. Doris Matsui, D-Calif. Vang has faced backlash after videos surfaced showing her declining to face the American flag and recite the Pledge of Allegiance as a member of the Sacramento city council.
“There are mini Mamdanis popping up all around the country. It is a dangerous thing. This is not a joke. We’re in a fight right now to save the Republic,” Johnson said.

Johnson’s warning comes as the far-left streamer Hasan Piker said earlier in June that a sweeping victory for the Mamdani-backed candidates would help advance the socialist movement’s broader policy goals.
“For the longest time, I thought we were so far away from socialism, and we might still be far away from socialism, but we do have an opportunity right here, right now, more than ever before,” Piker said at a rally in Brooklyn for DSA-endorsed candidates.
