Communist Candidate in Michigan Wants to Destroy the “American Way of Life”
By M Dowling -September 1, 20266 Comments

The Socialist [communist] William Lawrence secured the nomination in the Democrats’ primary for Michigan’s 7th Congressional district. He’ll face incumbent Republican Tom Barrett.

Chuck Ross at the Free Beacon:
William Lawrence (D.), a Hasan Piker superfan running for a competitive House seat in Michigan, called for “destroying the American way of life” and a cessation of all oil and gas drilling during a podcast discussion with Marxist activists.
 
Lawrence, a far-left former member of the Democratic Socialists of America, made the remarks during a January 2024 episode of the Hegomonicon podcast he hosts for Convergence, a publication that describes itself as a “magazine for radical insights.”

It doesn't matter so much what the communist says.
It DOES matter where he IS -- in which district he's running.

This "Michigan 7th" ... is it considered to be a safe blue district?
Or...??

Apparently the district lines were redrawn, and the estimate has gone from R +2 to EVEN (which means it has been skewed toward the Dems). Still, candidates do count (sometimes).
How God must weep at humans' folly! Stand fast! God knows what he is doing!
Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
