In this American Thinker article, J. Robert Smith declares that containing socialism at home requires active resistance and championing practical solutions as radicals like DSA candidates seize Democrat levers of power.

• Recent New York primaries and Melat Kiros’ win in Colorado signal socialists’ growing takeover of the Democrat Party, pushing extreme policies on crime, borders, and economics.
• Democrats’ leftward lurch, accelerated by Obama’s transformation agenda and radical activists, has turned cities into socialist strongholds while suburbs follow.

• America’s founding as a battleground between liberty and tyranny demands vigilance to preserve constitutional rights against majoritarian overreach.
