DNC Chairman Ken Martin recently appeared on CNN and insisted that Democrats are united, which is new to anyone who has been watching the far left DSA completely gut what used to be the Democrat Party.
Martin made sure to use the ‘big tent’ talking point as well, which has already been overused so much that it comes off as a joke.
As a party chairman, Martin is a gift to Republicans.
From the Washington Times:
Beneath the choreography, divisions kept resurfacing, with clashes between the establishment Democrats and socialist insurgents over how to dismantle Mr. Trump’s immigration force and which side to back in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
They hit an impasse over whether to call for “abolishing” or simply “reforming” U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. By the Saturday conclusion of the three-day meeting, the solution was to pass both an “abolish” resolution and a “reform” resolution rather than choose just one.
Pro-Palestinian and pro-Israel factions traded raw, personal accounts of pain over deadly conflict. The DNC punted taking a policy stand until a report on the issue is delivered at the winter meeting, which is traditionally held in January or February — after this year’s midterm elections.
DNC Chairman Ken Martin played down the ideological divisions as part of being a “big tent” party.
“We have conservative Democrats with centrists. We’ve got progressives like me. We’ve got leftists. All are welcome in this party — all voices. But don’t tell me there’s only one way to be a Democrat. Don’t tell me there’s only one stripe to wear,” Mr. Martin told a gathering of LGBTQ activists during the DNC summer meeting at the Hilton Austin Downtown.
Take a look:
Ken Martin says Democrats are unified with the far-Left who want to abolish prisons, police, and borders.
MARTIN: “We are united.”
CNN: “The Democrats and the DSA candidates they’re all united?”

Democrats are not even united on their primary calendar.
From FOX News:
Dem mayor torches DNC in scathing letter for ‘abandoning’ Black voters after convention snub
Atlanta’s Democratic Mayor Andre Dickens launched a scathing attack on the Democratic National Committee’s leadership Thursday, accusing party leaders of turning their backs on Black voters and the South after the DNC excluded the city from its shortlist to host the 2028 presidential convention.
“The DNC continues to make the wrong choices,” Dickens wrote in a scathing letter obtained by Fox News Digital, singling out DNC Chairman Ken Martin after party officials narrowed their convention search to Boston, Denver and Philadelphia.
Dickens’ rebuke echoes an argument other southern Democrats have pressed on the national party in recent months: that Democrats cannot afford to take the South — and particularly its Black voters — for granted heading into 2028. South Carolina Democratic Party Chair Christale Spain declared last month, amid debate over the party’s presidential primary calendar, that “the South is not the past, it is the future,” while Democratic chairs from five other southern states previously warned the DNC against sending Black voters the message that their loyalty is “taken for granted.”
“They are afraid to leave their comfort zone and blind to the fact that the South is the answer. They are abandoning Atlanta, abandoning the South, and once again abandoning Black voters,” Dickens wrote in his letter. “Atlanta has not hosted a convention in nearly 40 years. One party has chosen the South to host their convention, and the other has chosen the same region over and over again. This isn’t by accident. It’s an intentional choice.”
They sure sound united, don’t they?
