The DSA released their updated platform, “Workers Deserve More,” earlier in July. During a segment Sunday, Fox News host Shannon Bream went down a list of policies the DSA supports in its official political program, such as doing away with borders the U.S. Senate, the presidency, the Supreme Court, ICE and eventually all American prisons, plus defunding the Pentagon and permitting amnesty for undocumented immigrants. Her guest, DSA co-chair Megan Romer, confirmed the DSA believes in all of it.

The Democratic Socialist leader also confirmed that the DSA platform strives for public ownership of most major corporations.

Romer tried to justify the radical ideas, arguing that the Senate is “an anachronistic institution,” comparing it to the British House of Lords. For this reason, the organization wants to expand Congress but at the same time reduce it to a single legislature.(RELATED: Here’s How Democratic Socialists Of America Has Evolved Over The Decades)

“The Senate was part of the system that was made to make sure that the people didn’t have too much of a say. So we want to expand Congress significantly, but make it a unicameral legislature,” Romer said.

Speaking on open borders, Romer said the plan must first involve the U.S. “stopping destabilizing countries.”

“Most people who are coming to this country are coming as economic refugees… and we destabilized their countries… we did that,” Romer said.

Romer also revealed that Democrats have told her not to run as third-party candidates.

“We run under the Democratic ballot where it makes sense,” she told Bream. (RELATED: Democratic Party Establishment Facing Reckoning After Far-Leftists Win Power)

Romer has described herself as a “socialist with Presbyterian characteristics,” according to a Washington Times profile on her and the other DSA co-chair, Ashik Siddique.

The DSA was founded in 1982 in Detroit, Michigan as part of a merger between two Socialist and Marxist grassroots entities known as the Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee and the New American Movement.

The DSA now has over 100,000 members across all 50 states, according to dsausa.org.
