If the Democratic Party is where grassroots movements go to die, then
the run-up to presidential elections is a year-long procession of Dead
Activists Walking. This week, the funders of the Democratic wing of the
corporate Deep State – most prominently, currency manipulator George
Soros – have invited the Good, the Bad and the Hungry elements of what
is widely called the Black Lives Matter movement to make their case for cash infusions. The Democracy Alliance’s (DA) stated mission
is “to build progressive infrastructure that could help counter the
well-funded and sophisticated conservative apparatus in the areas of
civic engagement, leadership, media, and ideas.” Translation: to
transform leftish activist organizations into loyal, dependent annexes
of the Democratic Party.
