I got it from the Catholic News Agency. Liberal Catholics, the Obama/Hillary Catholics, with the help of Soros is trying to change the church called a "Catholic Spring." Many Catholics vote Democratic and they want to keep it that way even if the Dem party is becoming the party of abortion and now even infanticide.

The co-founder of Catholics in Alliance and Catholics United made a failed bid for the Democratic nomination for Virginia governor in 2017. During this race, Perriello had major backing from Soros, who gave at least $500,000 to his campaign. Three of Soros’ sons gave another $185,000, while Donald Sussman, a hedge fund manager and a board member of the Center for American Progress, gave $300,000, the Washington Free Beacon reported in June 2017.
Perriello on his gubernatorial campaign website said “I have always been pro-choice.” He voiced opposition to a ban on abortion 20 weeks into pregnancy. He backed a state constitutional amendment to guarantee legal abortion in the event the U.S. Supreme Court overturns precedent. He advocated the removal of abortion restrictions such as a 24-hour waiting period, mandatory counseling and mandatory ultrasounds for women seeking an abortion.
That's what we have here in the USA, minus the socialized medicine. What many millennials seem to be pushing for is outright socialism, or severely restricted capitalism. "Democratic socialism" is a load of crap. A new name for the same old failed model. The fact that it isn't being completely rejected by the masses is concerning. Some people really believe we can vote for everything we need or want, without having a sound plan in place to pay for it. It shows tremendous ignorance and lack of foresight.
No they’re pushing for Europe but you’re latching on the S word and then equating it with what you think it means and what you think people want.
I would wish the left would use the correct words..
Over here, we have Social Democracy... but Bernie Sanders and AOC calls it Democratic Socialism.. but their polices are Social Democracy policies and the countries they want to emulate are Social Democracies.. like Scandinavia and Northern Europe.
Trump is held in check by the Courts, Congress, Senate, media (mostly liars), and The Swamp.
The GOP controlled Senate seems to not want to do their jobs.
There should have been 435 votes in the House and 100 votes in the Senate to stop Trumps stealing of power from Congress. The GOP used to be for separation of powers. Now with Trump running the GOP that is no more.

And if the Congress doesn't like what Trump has done they can easily change the 1970's law that gave him and Obama the power to do it 13 times.
If this goes through, they should have the votes to make it happen.
Which model do you think is closer to socialism, Norway's or Venezuela's? Many proponents of socialism like to cherry pick and call the Nordic countries "socialist" when they are nothing more than a typical, mature advanced mixed economic model. They cannot be called socialist in the traditional sense. They are more a representation of where the developed world is heading.
So what do you think Medicare-for-all is which is the most radical policy anyone running for president proposes? Is it socialism or "mature advanced mixed economic model"? If its the latter and not socialism, then great, jump on board instead of being terrified of some elusive socialist coming to get you.
Social Security is not an entitlement---we paid into it. Medicare is horrible but it was tacked on so we have to deal with it.
So you think Social Security and Medicare is not socialism because it is funded by taxes? How does that makes sense? SS was implemented in the 1930s and Medicare 30 years later. We have to deal with it?
