Representative Mikie Sherrill won the Democratic nomination for New Jersey governor Tuesday, defeating five rivals thanks to heavy fundraising and political support from the bulk of the party establishment. She will face Republican Jack Ciattarelli, a former state legislator who narrowly lost a previous gubernatorial race in 2021.
Sherrill’s victory means that in the two main statewide elections of 2025, for the governorships of New Jersey and Virginia, the Democratic Party is nominating candidates drawn directly from the military-intelligence apparatus—what the WSWS has characterized as the “CIA Democrats.”
The CIA literally spent decades attempting to dissolve the Soviet Union and usher in free market capitalism - which led to oligarchy and Putin.
The CIA didn’t create Putin. He was literally a tool of the Vanguard for 16 years. Long before it fell. Literally every single Russian oligarch has ties directly back to the Vanguard as well.
Fuck the CIA and all. But nothing is more predictable than Leninist unable to acknowledge their own failures and needing a scapegoat.
