极左翼民主党人安吉·尼克松在疏远美国民主社会主义者(DSA)?Far-left Democrat Angie Nixon is running away from DSA?

有一位民主党参议员候选人正在疏远美国民主社会主义者(DSA)的政治纲领,尽管她本人就是该组织的成员。

Well, one Democratic Senate candidate is running away from the platform of the Democratic Socialists of America, even though she is a member of the group.

来自佛罗里达州的安吉·尼克松就是这样,她对彭博社发表了以下言论。大家来看看。她不想废除监狱,因为她想把阿什利·穆迪关进监狱。你可能会问,阿什利·穆迪是谁?阿什利·穆迪是她的共和党对手,也是佛罗里达州的现任参议员。

That’s Florida’s Angie Nixon, who had this to say to Bloomberg. Watch. So she doesn’t want to abolish prisons, because she wants to lock Ashley Moody in prison. Who is Ashley Moody, you may ask? Ashley Moody is her Republican opponent, and the incumbent senator from Florida.

我实际上认为这非常暴露出DSA的议程:他们确实想为真正的罪犯废除监狱,但他们需要保留监狱以便将他们的对手关进去。

I actually think that’s quite revealing of the DSA’s agenda: They do want to abolish prison for actual criminals, but they need to retain prisons so they can jail their opponents.

通过这种方式,民主社会主义者证明了他们只是普通的社会主义者。

In that way, the democratic socialists are proving that they’re just normal socialists.

当尼克松指责穆迪从孩子们那里偷钱时,她指的是一起涉及纳税人资金的小丑闻,其中一些资金被不当拨给了一家名为“希望佛罗里达”的非营利组织。

When Nixon accuses Moody of stealing from kids, she’s referring to a minor scandal involving taxpayer funds, some of which were improperly directed to a nonprofit, Hope Florida.

国家对此进行调查是完全合法的,但大陪审团拒绝起诉穆迪,并表示她对此不承担责任。

It’s perfectly proper for the state to investigate that, but a grand jury declined to indict Moody and said she wasn’t responsible for it.

然而,社会主义者并不关心司法系统的正常和标准运作,因为他们想废除我们的整个宪法,只做他们想做的事。

Socialists don’t care about the normal and standard operations of the justice system, however, since they want to abolish our entire Constitution and just do whatever they want.

不要被安吉尼克松愚弄,如果左翼继续接管民主党,这正是她将要尝试做的事情。他们的议程极其激进,而且很危险。更多的美国人需要注意到这一点,因为情况正变得有些严峻。如果最近的民调可信的话,民主党将在中期选举中获得巨大收益。现在,俄亥俄州和爱荷华州等地似乎也成了争夺焦点大户。如果民主党大获全胜,左翼将被壮大并走得更远。DSA的议程只是开始。

And don’t let Angie Nixon fool you, that is exactly what she will try to do if the left continues to take over the Democratic Party. Theirs is a deeply radical agenda, and a dangerous one. More Americans need to take notice, because things are getting a bit dire. If recent polls are to be believed, Democrats are headed for huge gains in the midterms. Now places like Ohio and Iowa seem up for grabs. If the Democratic Party wins big, the left will be emboldened to go further and further. The DSA’s agenda is only the beginning.
