Ayanna Pressley: ‘The Confederacy Is Still Alive and Well — That’s All MAGA Is’

Mariane Angela 26 Aug 2026

Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) compared President Donald Trump’s MAGA movement to the Confederacy.

Pressley made the remarks Monday at Roxbury Community College in Boston while campaigning for Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) in his primary race against Rep. Seth Moulton (D-MA).

“It is bigger than Trump,” Pressley said. “Because whenever we do the work of ousting the occupant of the Oval Office, the Confederacy is still alive and well. That’s all MAGA is.”

“White supremacy is still alive and well,” she continued. “Anti-blackness will still be alive and well.”

Markey is seeking another term in the Senate but faces a Democrat primary challenge from Moulton. Pressley endorsed Markey in March after previously considering a Senate campaign of her own.

In announcing her endorsement, Pressley pointed to their work together on immigration, criminal justice, and other progressive priorities.

“I am proud to endorse his re-election so we can continue advancing the justice-driven solutions our communities need to not only survive, but thrive,” Pressley said.

Last time I checked Abraham Lincoln was a Republican who led a Republican U.S. federal government against Democrat Jefferson Davis and a Democrat Confederate government (with Democrat governors and legislatures running all the seceded Southern states) during the Civil War to preserve the Union and free the slaves.

Am I wrong, Ayanna?

It is only about race to some people, notably the race baiters.

It is all the Dems have

The blood gurgling Marxist says what?

Notice 'Confederacy' is the new slur for the right wing, since they've had a supporting candidate they can't use Nazi anymore.

1.) Ayanna, go back to Chicago where you are from.
2.) Ed Markey is a privileged middle-aged white male who is the status quo, Ayanna, you hypocrite.
3.) Seth Moulton's career as a Dem, at the Federal level, is over.  One does not challenge the Dem Establishment in Mass.

Just another Democrat who knows nothing of American history. Yes, Baldy, the Democrats were pro-slavery, Republicans ended it. Try to keep up.

I was wondering what term they were going to switch to. Thank you for letting me know.
