May Day in New York City used to mean something. Steelworkers and steamfitters marching for an honest wage, union men with calloused hands demanding a fair shake. Last Friday, at Union Square, the calloused hands were nowhere to be found. What showed up instead should keep every American up at night.
The scene in lower Manhattan looked like a workers’ rally — if you squinted. Teamsters and union members gathered downtown at Washington Square Park for their own event. But blocks away at Union Square, a different operation was underway. Members of the Party for Socialism and Liberation pulled up in a van and unloaded dozens of professionally printed anti-Trump signs, stacking them neatly for distribution before the march even began. The Revolutionary Communists of America were there. So were the Communist Workers of America. Organizers hawked communist newspapers and recruited for upcoming events, right out in the open.
One pamphlet declared that “the existing capitalist-imperialist system and institutions of government in this country must be abolished and dismantled.” Not reformed. Abolished. Read that again slowly, because this wasn’t scribbled on cardboard by some college kid — it was printed literature, distributed at scale, in the heart of America’s largest city.
Follow the money to Shanghai
Here’s where the story turns from disturbing to dangerous.
The People’s Forum and the Party for Socialism and Liberation — the groups running the show at Union Square — are funded by a man named Neville Roy Singham. He’s a tech tycoon. He lives in Shanghai. And according to a Fox News Digital investigation, his nonprofit network funneled $22.4 million to The People’s Forum alone. Let me ask you something: a guy living in Shanghai is bankrolling political rallies in Manhattan, and nobody in city hall sees a problem with that?
Apparently not — because New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani showed up to deliver remarks. He stood in front of banners reading “NO ICE, NO WAR” and “NO BILLIONAIRES” and told the crowd:
From Fox News Digital:
“That is why we continue to fight for those who power this city as we look to deliver universal child care. Faster buses, cheaper groceries, protecting our neighbors from the cruelty of ice. And yes, working to tax the wealthiest and the most profitable corporations in New York City.”
“No Billionaires” — at a rally bankrolled by a billionaire in Shanghai. If I pitched this as satire, an editor would reject it for being too on the nose.
By the time Mamdani took the microphone, most actual union workers had already gone home. The cheering crowd that remained was dominated by Singham-connected organizations. So who, exactly, was the mayor performing for?
The Red Menace wasn’t a myth
For decades, Americans who warned about communist infiltration were laughed at. McCarthyism became a punchline. The very idea that organized communists could gain a foothold in American institutions was treated as paranoid fantasy.
I’ll say what a lot of people are thinking: nobody’s laughing now. A self-described communist organizer told Fox News on camera that America is “very proletarianized” and that the “class balance of forces” favors the working class — his polite way of saying revolution is ripe. Meanwhile, an ambulance with flashing lights was forced to turn around because marchers blocked the street. When ideology takes the wheel, everything else gets shoved aside.
This is what the modern American left looks like when it thinks nobody important is watching. Open communists, CCP money, pre-printed propaganda, and an elected mayor who showed up to bless the whole operation. Our grandparents warned us about exactly this. Turns out they weren’t paranoid. They were early.
