In a statement that swiftly drew criticism from across the Democratic Party, the Democratic Socialists of America condemned the Russian invasion of Ukraine and called on the United States ''to withdraw from NATO and to end the imperialist expansionism that set the stage for this conflict.''
Four House Democrats are avowed members of the DSA: Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jamaal Bowman, both of New York, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Cori Bush of Missouri. And Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., considers himself a democratic socialist and was endorsed by the group in his campaign.
In the New York City area, where the DSA's largest chapter holds considerable political sway, it has also created a complicated dynamic for politicians associated with the group.
In New York's 16th Congressional District, a refugee from Kosovo is making foreign policy a key element of his primary challenge of Bowman, a former Yonkers middle school principal whose ascent to Congress was supported by the DSA.
That person needs to wait in line, if you know what I mean...Democrat Socialists Blame US, NATO for War
It sounds like Democrats have a problem on the left flank.
I've been told that this POV is anti-American and means they love Putin.
I've also been told that this opinion means that person needs to move to Russia and suck Putin's love canoe.

when you drive into a city, you may use very different roads to get there, have very different reasons for getting in the car, see entirely different sites on the way, and leave with opposite impressions thus sharing absolutely none of the experience as some other schmuch who happens to be driving into the same city.Democrat Socialists Blame US, NATO for War

Have you heard these views expressly come out of AOC's and Tlaib's mouths? Or are you just being intellectually lazy.
Do you attribute official DNC communications and platforms to them as well considering they're also members of the Democratic Party?

Congrats!
That's a straight up lie. Newsmax is not a source, its a propaganda outlet.Democrat Socialists Blame US, NATO for War

Key phrase: that set the stage for this conflict
Spin: Democrat (sic) Socialists blame US, NATO for war
'Set the stage for this conflict' does not equate to 'blame for war.'
There's been aload of word butchery going on for the past two weeks.
