The LaRouche movement in the United States, under the spearpoint of the Diane Sare/Jose Vega candidacies—Sare for President and Vega for Congress from the Bronx’s 15th Congressional District—has been leading a drive to unify the growing number of independent candidates for federal office in the United States around a platform of returning the United States to its founding principles of ending imperialism and defending the Common Good of all humanity.
Others also smell that the American electorate are looking for radical change. Democratic Congressman Ro Khanna welcomed the announcement of the April 7 ceasefire with Iran by suggesting that a “broad populist social movement” is needed. “Congress … which barely made a whimper” gets no credit for bringing about the ceasefire; that “credit goes to the American people,” Khanna posted on X, naming “progressive activists & anti-war conservative voices like Tucker Carlson, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and many more” as responsible. He proposed “an anti-Epstein class, anti-war, pro-working class coalition” be formed.
Marjorie Taylor Greene quickly picked up on his proffer. She wrote on X that she agrees with Khanna “that we need a strong populist coalition of the right and left that can come together on the most important issues for the future generations of Americans.” That will not be easy, but “for the sake of my children’s generation, I’m willing to come together, go to the whiteboard, and begin to try to sketch something new…. It’s definitely worth starting the conversation.” That requires taking on the “powerful political industrial complex of the Democrat and Republican parties,” she argued. Her view, however, is still that “a right/left true America First coalition” would be a sufficient shift in policy to save the country.
U.S. President Donald Trump demonstrated how concerned he actually is about such potential realignments of U.S. politics, in a ridiculously long rant on Truth Social about how he pays no attention to “losers” as Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones, calling them “low IQs,” “stupid people” who “don’t have what it takes.” He ended with the flourish that “MAGA is about WINNING and STRENGTH in not allowing Iran to have Nuclear Weapons … because THE UNITED STATES IS NOW THE `HOTTEST’ COUNTRY ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD!”
