Couldn’t resist.

The Blaze has posted an amazing audio of an address by former SEIU senior official Stephen Lerner at last weekend’s Left Forum at Pace University in New York City.

Lerner lays out a detailed plan to create economic chaos in America by attacking key banks.

Listen as co-panelist Abby Scher invokes the infamous Cloward-Piven Strategy, developed in the 1960s to bring socialism to America by deliberately overloading and crashing state welfare systems.

Stephen Lerner is serious. He really wants to bring American capitalism crashing down.

Democratic Socialists of America, the U.S.’s largest Marxist organization have their fingerprints all over this scheme.

D.S.A. organizes Left Forum – which used to be called the Socialist Scholars Conference. That’s right, the same socialist conferences that D.S.A.’s old comrade Barack Obama used to attend while he was studying at Columbia University in the early 1980s.

SEIU, which employed Lerner for many years is completely dominated by D.S.A.

Cloward-Piven Strategy formulator Frances Fox Piven is a prominent D.S.A. member as was her late husband and co-conspirator Richard Cloward.

The particular panel Stephen Lerner addressed was entitled Building Solidarity through Community Power: Community-Labor Coalitions.

Other panelists included:

  • Abby Scher, Brooklyn College/CUNY- an activist with Political Research Associates, “researching the right for progressive changemakers,” which was founded by D.S.A. member Jean Hardisty.
  • John Atlas, National Housing Institute and a one time D.S.A. activist.

Frances Fox Piven spoke at left Forum 2011 as well. Her panel was entitled Excluded Workers: Building a Labor Movement for the Twenty-First Century.

Fox Piven’s co-panelists included:

Talk about revolutionary incest!

When are the Republicans going to convene Congressional hearings into Democratic Socialists of America, Left Forum and the rest of the Marxist left? I’ll happily testify, as would many of my fellow researchers. Wasn’t the recent D.S.A. organized chaos in Wisconsin enough to get the G.O.P. hierarchy up off its collective fat lazy ass?

Will these people be allowed to crash what’s left of the U.S. economy, before the G.O.P. decides to take these self proclaimed saboteurs seriously?

Why should exposing these subversives be left to Glenn Beck and “basement bloggers”?
