共和党发言人称周二是“民主党建制派正式向社会主义翼派投降的夜晚”
作者：保罗·施坦豪泽 福克斯新闻
温和派民主党人日益担忧党内不断抬头的反犹主义和社会主义浪潮，凸显了党内分裂。众议院少数党领袖哈基姆·杰弗里斯、参议院少数党领袖查克·舒默和前众议院议长南希·佩洛西均回避直接回应有关民主党左倾及社会主义影响力上升的问题。

在本周备受关注的纽约民主党国会初选前夕，纽约市市长佐赫兰·曼达尼强调，民主党“必须做出改变”。
周二，这位34岁的美国人口最多城市的民主社会主义市长朝着这一目标迈出了重要一步：他全力支持并奔走助力的三名极左翼国会候选人击败了多位更温和的民主党人，其中包括两名现任议员。
曼达尼支持的候选人获胜意味着，美国民主社会主义者联盟相关候选人在下一届国会中的人数至少将翻倍，同时也为共和党继续将所有民主党人描绘成极左翼激进分子提供了更多弹药。
在佛蒙特州进步派参议员伯尼·桑德斯险些拿下民主党总统提名十年后，以及亚历山德里亚·奥卡西奥-科特兹通过惊人的初选中击败时任众议院民主党党团主席乔·克劳利一举登上全国舞台八年后，极左翼似乎更加底气十足，正在为党未来走向与中间派建制派展开一场高风险较量。
向左倾斜：曼达尼支持的候选人推翻建制派民主党人

32岁的达里亚利扎·阿维拉·谢瓦利埃是曼达尼支持的社区组织者和民主社会主义者，她以微弱优势击败了71岁的现任民主党人、国会西班牙裔核心小组主席、首位当选美国众议院议员的多米尼加裔美国人阿德里亚诺·埃斯皮耶尔，她将自己的胜利称为“明确的授权”。
获得曼达尼背书的州议员克莱尔·巴尔韦德在纽约第7选区赢得了周二的初选，她在胜选演讲中强调：“我们不仅赢得了一场选举。我们宣告了这场运动是持久的——它正在壮大，并且不会停止，直到工薪阶层不再仅仅被要求搭建餐桌、不再仅仅被邀请坐在餐桌旁，而是能够掌控餐桌。”
在即将退休的民主党众议员妮迪亚·贝拉斯克斯的继任者竞选中，巴尔韦德以超过20个百分点的优势击败了这位国会女议员亲自挑选的候选人、布鲁克林区长安东尼奥·雷亚尔索。
曼达尼的“国王制造者”地位因此次初选胜利大幅提升，他周三表示，他将这些结果视为“纽约人渴望一种新型政治的反映”。展望全国舞台，这位市长补充道：“我的目标是让美国成为每个美国人都能负担得起的地方。”

加州众议员罗·卡纳是全国最知名的进步派领袖之一，也是潜在的2028年民主党总统候选人，他表示纽约市的选举结果“表明我们拥有了一个新的政党”。
进步变革竞选委员会联合创始人亚当·格林告诉福克斯新闻数字频道：“纽约的全面胜利是一场政治地震，表明选民们希望看到那些不受企业利益、亿万富翁或像美国以色列公共事务委员会（AIPAC）这样的腐败特朗普盟友操控的体制变革斗士。”他提到了这个强大的亲以色列游说团体。
此次选举结果将给国会民主党二号人物、参议院少数党领袖查克·舒默和众议院少数党领袖哈基姆·杰弗里斯在他们的家乡纽约带来重大麻烦。
现年75岁的舒默如果在2028年寻求连任，肯定会面临来自左翼的初选挑战，当被问及极左翼候选人的胜利时，他一再将矛头指向共和党总统唐纳德·特朗普。
“我们有一个伟大的团结政党，我们将阻止特朗普，”舒默告诉记者。

杰弗里斯也可能成为左翼的攻击目标。
周二晚间，当杰弗里斯的有线电视新闻采访出现在大屏幕上时，巴尔韦德胜选派对的人群高呼“下一个就是你”。
杰弗里斯周三告诉记者：“我将继续支持每一位民主党现任议员，同时当然会继续专注于我们实际上需要为这个国家做的事情，也就是夺回众议院的控制权。”
中间派民主党领先组织“第三条道路”的领导人之一马特·贝内特承认，“在像纽约市这样极其深蓝的地区，极左翼拥有巨大的能量”，并且“他们成功完成了将现任议员或温和派民主党人从蓝领选区赶走、让选区变得更左的任务”。
但在被称为纽约市“共产主义走廊”的地区之外——包括布鲁克林和皇后区的部分地区，近年来这些地区的选民一贯支持极左翼和社会主义候选人——温和派民主党人在周二的初选中胜出。
在曼哈顿接替即将退休的长期民主党众议员杰里·纳德勒的备受瞩目的竞选中，纳德勒前幕僚米迦·拉舍脱颖而出。
在纽约市以北的摇摆选区第17国会选区，陆军老兵凯特·康利赢得了初选，将在关键的中期选举中挑战共和党众议员迈克·劳勒，这场竞选是决定共和党能否保持微弱众议院多数席位的少数几场关键选举之一。

在犹他州，前民主党众议员本·麦克亚当斯击败进步派对手，在新划分的倾向深蓝的第1国会选区赢得初选。在华盛顿特区外的马里兰州，在接替长期担任众议员斯坦尼·霍耶的竞选中，获得霍耶支持的阿德里安·博阿福在人数众多且多元的民主党初选中脱颖而出。
贝内特表示，受到过度关注的纽约市竞选“并不具有代表性，而且事实上，在特朗普时代，极左翼未能从共和党手中拿下任何一个国会席位，无论是众议院还是参议院”。
“他们没有采取任何行动来制衡特朗普或夺回权力，”他辩称。“事实上，他们让情况变得更糟，因为他们给了共和党非常有力的弹药，让他们可以像2020年共和党有效利用‘ defund the police（defund the police指“削减警方预算”，是当时美国进步派的一项主张）’那样，在摇摆选区攻击民主党人。”
自一年前曼达尼在民主党市长初选中爆冷获胜以来，共和党人一直将他作为攻击工具，试图在今年的中期选举中保住他们微弱的众议院多数席位。
全国共和党国会委员会发言人迈克·马里内拉辩称：“佐赫兰·曼达尼的社会主义标签极具毒性。”
针对周二的选举结果，马里内拉指责道：“这是民主党建制派正式向佐赫兰·曼达尼和他们党内的社会主义翼派投降的夜晚。每一位众议院民主党人，无论所在选区是安全席位还是竞争席位，现在都必须听命于掌权的激进分子。美国人应该对民主党党的走向感到恐惧。”

曼达尼则放话放马过来。
“共和党人一再表示，他们将试图把这些候选人塑造成民主党党的代表。针对他们，我要说我们已经准备好迎接这一切，”这位市长周三说道。
周二的初选只是极左翼与建制派 ongoing斗争的一个篇章。更多战斗即将到来，包括下周二在倾向深蓝的科罗拉多州的国会初选、密歇根州备受瞩目的民主党参议院初选、8月初威斯康星州的州长对决，以及秋季的洛杉矶市长大选。

这场斗争在中期选举后仍将继续，因为2028年民主党总统提名竞选正式拉开帷幕。
“民主党要在全国层面获胜，他们需要涵盖政治光谱的候选人。民主党一直以来都是一个大帐篷。但如今，进步派与温和派的旧战线已经不如内部人士与外部人士的划分那么重要，”民主党战略家克里斯·莫耶告诉福克斯新闻。
曾参与多场民主党总统竞选的莫耶表示：“如今最重要的是真实性问题。太多政客满口胡言，而选民们从未像现在这样善于识别骗子。”

Mamdani-backed socialist wins in New York expose growing rift between Democratic establishment, insurgent left
June 25, 2026 2:09pm EDT / Fox News
GOP spokesman called Tuesday ‘the night the Democrat establishment officially surrendered to the socialist wing’
By Paul Steinhauser Fox News
Moderate Democrats are raising concerns about growing antisemitism and a socialist surge within their party, highlighting internal divisions. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi avoid directly addressing questions about the party’s leftward shift and increasing socialist influence.

Ahead of this week’s closely watched Democratic congressional primaries in New York, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani stressed that the party “must change.”
On Tuesday, the 34-year-old democratic socialist mayor of the nation’s most populous city took a major step toward that goal as three far-left congressional candidates he endorsed and campaigned tirelessly for defeated more mainstream Democrats, including two incumbents.
The victories by the Mamdani-backed candidates guarantee that the number of Democratic Socialists of America-aligned candidates will at least double in the next Congress and give Republicans further ammunition as they continue to portray all Democrats as far-left radicals.
A decade after progressive champion Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont came close to capturing the Democratic presidential nomination, and eight years after Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez burst onto the national stage by ousting then-House Democratic Caucus Chairman Joe Crowley in a shocking primary upset, the far left appears further emboldened as it takes on the center-left establishment in a high-stakes battle for the future of the party.
LURCHING LEFT: MAMDANI-BACKED CANDIDATES OUST ESTABLISHEMENT DEMOCRATS

Darializa Avila Chevalier, the 32-year-old Mamdani-backed community organizer and democratic socialist who narrowly topped incumbent Democrat Adriano Espaillat, the 71-year-old Congressional Hispanic Caucus chair and the first Dominican American elected to the U.S. House, called her victory a “clear mandate.”
Mamdani-endorsed state Assembly Member Claire Valdez, who won her primary on Tuesday in New York’s 7th District, emphasized in her victory speech that “we haven’t just won an election. We have declared that this movement is durable — that it is growing, and that it will not stop until working people are no longer asked to just build the table, no longer just offered a seat at the table, but will run the table.”
In the race to succeed retiring Democratic Rep. Nydia Velazquez, Valdez topped the congresswoman’s handpicked candidate, Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso, by over 20 points.
Mamdani, whose kingmaker status was dramatically boosted by the primary victories, said Wednesday that he sees “these results as a reflection of the fact that New Yorkers are hungry for a new kind of politics.” Looking to the national stage, the mayor added, “My goal is to make America a place that every American can afford
And possibly looking to the national stage, the mayor added, “My goal is to make America a place that every American can afford.”
DEMOCRACY ’26: STAY UP TO DATE WITH THE FOX NEWS ELECTION HUB

Rep. Ro Khanna of California, one of the most visible national progressive leaders and a potential 2028 Democratic presidential contender, said the results in New York City “shows we have a new party.”
Adam Green, co-founder of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee, told Fox News Digital that “New York’s clean sweep was a political earthquake that shows voters want shake-up-the-system fighters who are not owned by corporate interests, billionaires, or corrupt Trump allies like AIPAC,” referring to the powerful pro-Israel lobbying group.
The results will give Senate Minority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, the top two Democrats in Congress, major headaches in their own backyard of New York.
The 75-year-old Schumer, who is certain to face a primary challenge from the left if he seeks re-election in 2028, repeatedly pointed to Republican President Donald Trump when asked about the victories by the far-left candidates.
“We have a great unified party, and we’re going to stop Trump,” Schumer told reporters.

Jeffries is also likely to be targeted from the left.
The crowd at the Valdez victory party chanted “you’re next” as a cable news interview with Jeffries appeared on the big screens on Tuesday night.
Jeffries told reporters on Wednesday, “I’m going to continue to stand behind every single Democratic incumbent, while of course, continuing to focus on what we actually need to do for this country, which is to take back control of the House of Representatives.”
Matt Bennett, one of the leaders at the Third Way, a leading center-left Democratic organization, acknowledged that “there is enormous energy around the far left in very, very blue places, like New York City” and that “they are succeeding in their mission to oust incumbents or mainstream Democrats from blue seats and make them bluer.”
But outside what has been labeled New York City’s “Commie corridor,” which includes parts of Brooklyn and Queens where voters in recent years have consistently backed far-left and socialist candidates, more mainstream Democrats prevailed in Tuesday’s primaries.
In the high-profile showdown to succeed retiring longtime Democratic Rep. Jerry Nadler in Manhattan, former Nadler staffer Micah Lasher came out on top.
Miles north of New York City in the state’s swing 17th Congressional District, Army veteran Cait Conley won the primary and will challenge GOP Rep. Mike Lawler in a key midterm contest that is one of a handful which will determine if Republicans hold the slim House majority.

In Utah, former Democratic Rep. Ben McAdams defeated progressive rivals to win the primary in the newly redrawn and blue-leaning1st Congressional District. And in Maryland, just outside of Washington D.C., in the race to succeed longtime Rep. Steny Hoyer, Adrian Boafo, who was supported by Hoyer, topped a crowded and diverse Democratic primary field.
Bennett said that the New York City races grabbing outsized attention “are not representative districts, and it remains the case that the far left, in the Trump era, has failed to flip a single seat in Congress from red to blue, House or Senate.”
“They’re doing nothing to put a check on Trump or get power back,” he argued. “And in fact, they’re making it harder, because they’re handing Republicans very potent ammunition to use against Democrats in swing districts the way the GOP used ‘defund the police’ very effectively in 2020.”
Since Mamdani’s shocking Democratic mayoral primary win a year ago, Republicans have used him as a cudgel as they work to hold their razor-thin House majority in this year’s midterm elections.
National Republican Congressional Committee spokesman Mike Marinella argued that “Zohran Mamdani’s socialist brand is as toxic as it comes.”
Pointing to Tuesday’s results, Marinella charged that “it was the night the Democrat establishment officially surrendered to Zohran Mamdani and the socialist wing of their party. Every House Democrat, in safe and competitive districts alike, will now answer to the radicals calling the shots. And Americans should be terrified by where the Democrat Party is headed.”

Mamdani says bring it on.
“We’ve heard from Republicans time and again that they’re going to try and make these candidates the face of the Democratic Party. To them. I say that we are ready for that,” the mayor said on Wednesday.
Tuesday’s primaries were just one chapter in the ongoing struggle between the far left and the establishment. More battles are ahead, including next Tuesday’s congressional primaries in blue-leaning Colorado, the high-profile Democratic Senate primary in Michigan, the gubernatorial showdown in Wisconsin in early August, and the Los Angeles mayoral general election in the fall.

And the fight will continue after the midterms, as the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination race officially gets underway.
“For Democrats to win at the national level, they need candidates who span the political spectrum. The party has always had a big tent. But the old battle lines of progressive versus moderate are less important now than insider versus outsider,” Democratic strategist Chris Moyer told Fox News.
Moyer, a veteran of multiple Democratic presidential campaigns, said, “More than anything else today, the authenticity question is decisive. Too many politicians are full of s—, and voters have never been better at spotting phonies.”
