A violent weekend of Marxist-Islamist protests rocked Europe, from Portugal to Italy. The worst carnage erupted across France, where rioters torched the revered, architecturally stunning town hall of Limoges. The 143-year-old landmark is a protected national monument. Its roof caved in, and its iconic bell tower collapsed into the flames.
Is this kind of mayhem headed to America next?
My latest League of American Workers poll, in the battleground state of Arizona, clearly shows that Americans reject the mass migration and philosophical extremism now afflicting Europe. Nonetheless, the risks here are very real.
Sadly, current trends suggest that the growing “red-green” alliance of hardcore leftists and radical Islamists in the United States could produce exactly this kind of disorder and destruction here, if we are not vigilant—and if the looming elections go poorly for nationalist candidates.
This new Marxist-jihadi alliance grows more visible as the midterms approach. Last week, openly socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., barnstormed Michigan with pro-Sharia law Muslim candidate Abdul El-Sayed and steered $1 million toward his Senate bid against Republican Mike Rogers. This is the same Abdul El-Sayed whose campaign is being dogged by past admissions from his half-sister that their family “has long been Muslim Brotherhood,” a designated terrorist organization.
Admittedly, these political factions make a strange political marriage, and they clearly disagree on many topics, especially social issues.
