Marxist Colorado State Rep. Replaces U.S. Flag on His Desk with Palestinian Flag

New in PJ Media:

Tim Hernández, a state legislator in Colorado, is not a stealth Marxist in the sense that all Democrats are, since the statist, authoritarian policies they advocate would lead us straight to the gulag. No, the earnest young Hernández is even worse: he is an open, out-and-proud, avowed lover of Marxism/Leninism and all its work and all its pomps.

If he ever became president of the United States (or the guy who runs the president), those gulags would in short order become a cheerful new feature of the American landscape. In the meantime, Hernández continues to make abundantly clear where his loyalties lie: not with the United States of America.

On Saturday, pro-Hamas protesters stormed the Colorado state legislature and hung Palestinian flags and anti-Israel banners on the gallery railing, while chanting all the usual slogans. Hernández was thrilled, writing: “Standing in strong solidarity with Coloradans who bravely stood up and disrupted our job this morning calling for a Ceasefire in Gaza. Over a majority of Americans now support a Ceasefire. I urge my colleagues to listen. #FreePalestine.”

He concluded this tweet with an emoji of a Palestinian flag and another of a slice of watermelon. Apparently, he meant the watermelon as an assertion that the Palestinian jihad against Israel was ultimately a Marxist struggle: green (the color of Islam) on the outside, but red on the inside.

Hernández included two photos, one of the legislature galleries festooned with Palestinian flags and the other of his own desk. In the foreground of the photo of the galleries, the unoccupied desks of several of Hernández’s colleagues are clearly visible. At the front of each are two small flags, one of the United States and the other of Colorado. But in Hernández’s photo of his own desk, there is a significant difference: on his own desk, the Marxist legislator has replaced the American flag with the Palestinian flag.

Hernández must have considered, if only for a moment, whether to replace the American flag or the Colorado flag on his desk, and he made the choice that most clearly reflected his loyalties. Hernández, who frequently rails against “Whiteness” and has called for a “FORCEFUL Cultural Revolution,” clearly has no loyalty whatsoever to the United States. He is open about his Marxism/Leninism, although he prefers to take a practical approach to indoctrinating the masses, rather than inundating his hapless charges with the finer points of Marx’s theory of capital…
