The Democrat Party has officially lost the plot—again. If you needed more proof that the modern Left has abandoned sanity, patriotism, and any semblance of working-class values, look no further than a recent op-ed in Teen Vogue (of all places) by Leah Juliett, a former staffer for Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.
Juliett, who goes by “they/them” pronouns, wrote a full-throated plea for Democrats to hand over the keys to the kingdom—not to moderates or seasoned statesmen—but to full-blown socialist revolutionaries like Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. According to Juliett, these radical voices are the real heartbeat of the Democrat Party. God help us.
In their words, Sanders and AOC have their “finger on the pulse of what young progressives are feeling.” That pulse? It’s a fever dream of Marxist rhetoric, climate hysteria, and woke gender ideology that demands your compliance—or cancellation. Juliett says these two darlings of the far-Left “recognize the indignity of our current political climate.” You’d think they’d take a hard look in the mirror, considering it’s their side pushing for drag shows for kids, open borders, and the erasure of women’s sports.
But this confession from Juliett isn’t just a love letter to the Squad. It’s a blistering condemnation of Schumer himself and what remains of the so-called “mainstream” Democratic Party. Juliett rips Schumer for being “ambivalent, if not outright harmful” on transgender issues, and for failing to embrace full-on progressive extremism. The real kicker? Juliett admits that working for Senate Democrats was a betrayal of their values. “Leaving my job in the Democratic Party wasn’t just a career move,” they wrote. “It was survival.” That’s how toxic and unhinged the far-left base has become—they feel “unsafe” in the company of Schumer and Newsom.
According to Juliett, Democrats like Schumer have betrayed their values by embracing “centrist, incremental approaches” on issues like climate change, student debt, and transgender policies. To the woke mob, anything short of total capitulation is an act of violence. Juliett insists that Schumer and his ilk are driving young people away because of their “ideological rigidity” and “failure to address the evolving socio-political landscape.”
Translation: The Democrat Party isn’t moving far enough, fast enough, into the radical Left abyss.
Let’s be clear: these aren’t fringe musings from a keyboard warrior. This is someone who worked inside the belly of the beast, writing messaging for Senate Democrats. If this is what former staffers are saying out loud, imagine what’s being whispered in back rooms across Washington.
Juliett’s op-ed is unintentionally honest—and deeply revealing. It shows us that Democrats have completely lost the plot. They’re no longer the party of blue-collar America. They’re the party of pronouns, socialism, and TikTok activists demanding safe spaces from basic biology.
This implosion is the logical endpoint of decades of leftist rot. The Democrats pandered to radicals for years, thinking they could ride the wave without drowning in it. Now, they’re being devoured by the monster they created.
Meanwhile, Donald Trump is surging. Working Americans are watching this circus and saying, “No thanks.” They’re turning to the one man who speaks their language, defends their jobs, secures their borders, and believes in the greatness of America. MAGA doesn’t need to court TikTok socialists to win elections. It needs to keep fighting for the forgotten men and women of this country.
If Democrats want to put AOC and Bernie in charge, let them. Let the radical Left run the party straight into the ground. The American people are wide awake, and 2024 was just the beginning. The MAGA movement isn’t going anywhere—because it speaks to the real America, not the fantasy world of gender-neutral communists and teen magazine revolutionaries.
