民主党正面临身份认同危机。
三名得到纽约市市长佐赫兰·曼达尼支持的极左翼激进分子周二晚在初选中获胜,社会主义及社会主义背景候选人实现完胜。这位市长支持的候选人击败了民主党建制派和众议院少数党领袖哈基姆·杰弗里斯(D-纽约州)支持的候选人,令民主党领导层大为震惊。
民主社会主义美国分会成员达里亚利萨·阿维拉·谢瓦利尔、州众议员克莱尔·巴尔德斯,以及进步民主党人、前DSA成员布拉德·兰德均在深蓝选区获胜,现在都已稳获国会席位。

以下是我们了解的关于他们的信息:
“佐赫兰的政党”:曼达尼在社会主义盟友横扫纽约初选后成为民主党实权人物
达里亚利萨·阿维拉·谢瓦利尔
阿维拉·谢瓦利尔现年32岁,原籍佛罗里达州。她曾就读于哥伦比亚大学,目前在纽约市立大学(CUNY)攻读博士学位。
她在大学期间大部分时间都在组织反对政治右翼的活动,是一名强硬的反以色列分子。在这所常春藤盟校,她协助创立了一个名为“哥伦比亚大学种族隔离抵制运动”(CUAD)的组织,该组织后来因在X平台上用波斯语发布“去死吧美国”的内容引发轩然大波。
2024年,该组织声称其“正在为彻底消灭西方文明而斗争”,遭到广泛谴责。哥伦比亚大学已与该组织划清界限。

曼达尼为 fellow 社会主义候选人辩护,尽管其反美、极左翼旧帖被重新曝光
阿维拉·谢瓦利尔自称“非裔拉丁裔”,近年来皈依了伊斯兰教。她的父母在她出生前从多米尼加共和国移民而来,她的国籍成为她在以多米尼加裔为主的第13国会选区初选之战的核心焦点,尤其是在她似乎与自己的出身保持距离之际。
周二晚,她击败了连任五届的民主党人、本身也是进步派人士的阿德里亚诺·埃斯帕利亚特(D-纽约州),她从左翼方向对其发起挑战。
阿维拉·谢瓦利尔删除了其X账号上大量煽动性的极左翼帖子,其中她攻击其他民主党人,包括将前总统乔·拜登称为“强奸犯”和“战争罪犯”,咒骂副总统卡玛拉·哈里斯,还批评进步派参议员伯尼·桑德斯(I-佛蒙特州)的“自由派犹太复国主义”。

曼达尼支持的社会主义候选人在面对旧社交媒体帖子时愤然中断现场采访
最令人震惊的是,她多次诋毁美国——有一次称她的祖国“是个该死的耻辱”。
“我忘了拿餐巾纸,所以就用身后的美国国旗擦了手,”她在另一篇已删除的帖子中说道。
这位即将就任的国会议员还是一名狂热的反边境活动人士,主张彻底废除警察和监狱。
极左翼浪潮:曼达尼支持的候选人罢免民主党建制派现任议员
在2021年X平台(当时名为推特)的一则转发帖中,她表示废除边境、监狱和警察是“可行的、必要的,也是唯一符合道德的前进道路”,后来她还转发并附和了“所有驱逐都是错误的”以及“彻底废除边境”的帖子。
在上周与埃斯帕利亚特的辩论中,阿维拉·谢瓦利尔辩称,无论如何都不应将非法移民驱逐出境,即使他们犯下了暴力罪行或已服刑。她还荒唐地辩称,驱逐暴力外籍罪犯构成“双重危险”,因为犯下同样罪行的美国人不会被驱逐。

她还曾攻击白人女性,甚至曾指责黑人和阿拉伯男性“迷恋丑陋的殖民者女性”。
民主党社会主义者曼达尼盟友竞选美国众议院席位
州众议员克莱尔·巴尔德斯
巴尔德斯目前代表纽约州议会第37选区,她于2024年当选该职位,2025年就职后立即启动了国会竞选,以接替即将退休的众议员妮迪亚·贝拉斯克斯(D-纽约州)。
巴尔德斯来自德克萨斯州拉伯克,2015年搬到纽约从事艺术家职业。她有部分原住民血统,是伊斯莱塔德尔苏尔普韦布洛民族的公民。
和阿维拉·谢瓦利尔一样,她得到了正义民主党人的支持,这个极左翼团体因帮助启动社会主义众议员亚历山德里亚·奥卡西奥-科特兹(D-纽约州)的政治生涯而声名鹊起。该团体将巴尔德斯描述为“自豪的民主社会主义者”。

社会主义者为初选之夜的“震荡”欢呼,DSA支持的候选人获胜并在全国范围内推进
该组织的宣传资料称,巴尔德斯“在高中、大学期间及毕业后从事过低薪客服工作”。其中一份工作是在哥伦比亚大学,她加入了代表全职和兼职秘书及文职雇员的UAW地方2110分会,并当选为该工会的谈判委员会成员。
正义民主党表示,作为州众议员,她“一直在为向富人征税、保护租户、赋能劳动者而斗争”。
巴尔德斯也称以色列在加沙的军事行动是“种族灭绝”。
“两年半前,以色列领导人明确表示他们要在加沙实施种族灭绝,”她在6月3日的X帖子中说道。“而他们也确实这么做了。我和众多纽约市民走上街头抗议我们的共谋行为,呼吁解放巴勒斯坦。”

她呼吁美国停止向以色列提供资金。
巴尔德斯还公开呼吁废除移民海关执法局,将其描述为“法西斯机构”,并指责该局“恐吓”社区、“绑架”民众。
“这个法西斯政府正在从移民法庭的报到点绑架我们的邻居,”她在2025年的X帖子中说道。“奥尔巴尼(纽约州议会所在地)还在等什么?州领导人不能再忽视这场紧急情况了。我们不能再让哪怕一个邻居成为目标。”
“我们必须通过纽约全民法案,将ICE赶出纽约。”
前纽约市主计长布拉德·兰德
兰德于2022年至2025年担任纽约市主计长,即首席财务官。
在此之前,他在纽约市议会代表布鲁克林第39选区长达12年,并在议会期间创立了进步党团。

兰德曾是正式登记的DSA成员,2023年因该组织对2023年10月7日哈马斯针对以色列音乐会观众的恐怖袭击(造成1200人死亡)的反应而脱离该组织。
周二晚,他在纽约第10国会选区以压倒性优势击败了现任众议员丹·戈德曼(D-纽约州)。
兰德表示,他在国会的首要任务是“击败特朗普的法西斯主义”并废除移民海关执法局,还指责亿万富翁“操纵我们的经济”。
曼达尼支持的“自由派犹太复国主义者”罢免了领导特朗普弹劾案的民主党人,以争夺纽约国会席位
他自称是黑人社区的“盟友”,在2022年主计长职位的候选人调查中,他令人震惊地承认自己可能存在白人至上主义倾向。
“作为一名白人男性,这项工作首先要尽可能诚实地倾听黑人对他们感受到的愤怒和痛苦,以及他们所反映的白人至上和系统性种族主义制度的心声,”他说道。
“这并不容易——因为这涉及到我自己,因为愤怒如此之深,因为改变现状需要付出巨大代价。但这必须是起点。从深入倾听开始,随之而来的应该是面向行动的解决方案和真正的承诺。”

据《纽约邮报》报道,2020年,兰德呼吁警方暂停逮捕罪犯,并要求释放赖克斯岛监狱的大多数在押人员。他还在给选民的一封信中主张将纽约警察局的预算削减10亿美元。
“我承诺致力于为纽约警察局裁军,”信中据称如此写道。

Fox News’ Harris Faulkner reports on the ‘socialist sweep’ in New York, as far-left candidates secured key victories in Democratic Party primaries. These wins send ‘shockwaves’ through the Democrat establishment, highlighted by controversial figures backing policies like abolishing ICE and Medicare-for-all. Cassie Smedile and Meghan Hays provide their analysis during ‘The Faulkner Focus.’

The Democratic Party has an identity crisis.
Three far-left radicals backed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani won their primary elections Tuesday night in a clean sweep by socialist and socialist-adjacent candidates. The mayor’s preferred candidates destroyed those backed by the Democrat establishment and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), leaving party leadership shellshocked.
Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) members Darializa Avila Chevalier and State Assemblywoman Claire Valdez, along with progressive Democrat and former DSA member Brad Lander, all have a clear path to Congress after winning in heavily blue districts.

Here’s what we know about them:
‘PARTY OF ZOHRAN’: MAMDANI EMERGES AS DEMOCRATIC KINGMAKER AFTER SOCIALIST ALLIES SWEEP NYC PRIMARIES
Darializa Avila Chevalier
Avila Chevalier, 32, is originally from Florida. She attended Columbia University and is currently pursuing a PhD at the City University of New York (CUNY).
She spent much of her time in college organizing against the political right, and is a hardline anti-Israel actor. At the Ivy League school, she helped found a group called Columbia University Apartheid Divest (CUAD), which later caused a firestorm when it posted “Death to America” in Farsi on X.
In 2024, the group faced widespread condemnation when it stated that it was “fighting for the total eradication of Western civilization.” Columbia has distanced itself from the group.

MAMDANI STANDS BY FELLOW SOCIALIST CANDIDATE DESPITE RESURFACED FAR-LEFT, ANTI-AMERICAN POSTS
Avila Chevalier identifies as “Afro Latina” and converted to Islam in recent years. Her parents emigrated from the Dominican Republic before she was born, and her nationality became a central focus of her primary battle in the largely Dominican 13th Congressional District, especially as she appeared to distance herself from her roots.
Tuesday night, she ousted five-term Democrat Adriano Espaillat (D-N.Y.), a progressive in his own right, after running against him from his left.
Avila Chevalier deleted a rash of inflammatory far-left posts from her X account where she attacked other Democrats including former President Joe Biden, whom she called a “rapist” and a “war criminal,” Vice President Kamala Harris, whom she cursed out, and progressive Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., whom she chastised for his “liberal Zionism.”

MAMDANI-BACKED SOCIALIST CANDIDATE STORMS OUT OF LIVE INTERVIEW WHEN CONFRONTED WITH OLD SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS
Perhaps most egregiously, she has trashed the United States on multiple occasions — one time calling her home country “a f—ing disgrace.”
“I forgot to get napkins so I just wiped my hand on the American flag behind me,” she said in yet another deleted post.
The soon-to-be congresswoman is also a rabid anti-borders activist, and has argued for completely abolishing police and prisons.
FAR-LEFT SURGE: MAMDANI-BACKED CANDIDATES OUST DEM ESTABLISHMENT INCUMBENTS
In a 2021 repost on X, then Twitter, she said that abolishing borders, prisons and police is “possible, necessary, and the only moral way forward,” and later amplified and echoed posts that claimed “all deportation is wrong” and to “literally abolish the border.”
In a debate against Espaillat last week, Avila Chevalier argued that illegal aliens shouldn’t be deported from the under any circumstances, even if they have committed violent crimes or served jail time. She bizarrely argued that deporting violent alien criminals constitutes “double jeopardy,” since Americans who commit the same crimes cannot be deported.

She also waged a war on white women and even once blasted black and Arab men for “fetishizing ugly colonizer women.”
DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST MAMDANI ALLY MOUNTS BID FOR US HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
State Assemblywoman Claire Valdez
Valdez currently represents New York’s State Assembly for the 37th District, a position she was elected to in 2024. She took office in 2025, and almost immediately launched her congressional bid to replace outgoing Rep. Nydia Velázquez, D-N.Y., who is retiring from Congress.
Valdez is from Lubbock, Texas, and moved to New York to pursue a career as an artist in 2015. She is part Native American and a citizen of the Ysleta del Sur Pueblo Nation.
She, like Avila Chevalier, was endorsed by Justice Democrats, a far-left group that rose to prominence for helping launch the political career of socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y. The group describes Valdez as a “proud Democratic Socialist.”

SOCIALISTS CHEER ‘SHOCKWAVE’ PRIMARY NIGHT AS DSA-BACKED CANDIDATES WIN, ADVANCE ACROSS THE MAP
The endorsement brags that Valdez “worked low-wage customer service jobs through high school, college and after.” One of those jobs was as a worker at Columbia University, where she joined UAW Local 2110, which represents full and part-time secretarial and clerical employees. She was elected to the bargaining committee of the union.
Justice Democrats says that in her capacity as an assemblywoman, she “has fought to tax the rich, protect tenants, and empower working people.”
Valdez, too, has called Israel’s military action in Gaza a “genocide.”
“Two and a half years ago, Israeli leaders clearly stated their intent to carry out a genocide in Gaza,” she said in an X post on June 3. “And that’s exactly what they did. I was in the streets with so many New Yorkers protesting our complicity and to free Palestine.”

She has called for the U.S. to withhold funding to Israel.
Valdez has also outwardly called for the abolishment of ICE, which she described as a “fascist agency” and accused them of “terrorizing” the community and “kidnapping” people.
“This fascist administration is kidnapping our neighbors from their immigration court check-ins,” she said in a 2025 post to X. “What is Albany waiting for? State leaders cannot ignore this emergency any longer. We cannot allow ONE MORE neighbor to be targeted.”
“We must pass NY4ALL and get ICE OUT OF NEW YORK.”
Former NYC Comptroller Brad Lander
Lander served as the chief financial officer for New York City from 2022 to 2025 as comptroller.
Before that, he represented Brooklyn’s 39th District on the New York City Council for 12 years, and founded the Progressive Caucus while on the council.

Lander was a card-carrying DSA member until 2023, when he was turned off by the group’s response to the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas terror attack on Israeli concertgoers that killed 1,200 people.
He defeated incumbent Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y., in a landslide on Tuesday night in New York’s 10th Congressional District.
Lander says his first priority in Congress will be to “vanquish Trump’s fascism” and abolish ICE, and accused billionaires of “rigging our economy.”
MAMDANI-BACKED ‘LIBERAL ZIONIST’ OUSTS DEM WHO LED TRUMP IMPEACHMENT IN BID TO TAKE NYC HOUSE SEAT
He has described himself as an “ally” to the black community, and in a 2022 candidate survey for the comptroller job shockingly accused himself of possible white supremacy.

“As a white man, that work starts by listening as honestly as I can to black people about the anger and pain they are feeling, and the system of white supremacy and systemic racism it reflects,” he said.
“That is not easy —because it implicates me, because the anger is so deep, and because what it would take to change it is so big. But it must be the starting point. From deep listening, action-oriented solutions and genuine commitments should follow.”

In 2020, Lander called for police to suspend arresting criminals and demanded most inmates at Rikers be released. He also advocated for cutting NYPD’s budget by $1 billion in a letter to constituents, according to the New York Post.
“My commitment to working to defund the NYPD,” the letter reportedly said.
