Deleted Tweets on Darializa Avila Chevalier’s Account Had Favorable References to Communist Leaders and Marxism
- Democratic congressional nominee Darializa Avila Chevalier faces scrutiny over a deleted Twitter account containing sympathetic references to communism and Marxist ideology, following her primary victory last Tuesday against incumbent Rep. Adriano Espaillat.
- The account, deleted in June 2022, included posts advocating to "seize the means of production" and recommending Karl Marx's Capital as an "essential must-read," alongside references to Soviet figures including Vladimir Lenin.
- Beyond political theory, archived posts described wiping dirty hands on the American flag, and she attended an October 8, 2023, pro-Palestinian rally in Times Square one day after the Hamas attack on Israel.
- On Thursday, President Donald Trump accused Chevalier of being a communist, though she told MSNBC's Ali Velshi she regretted the posts; Brzezinski slammed Murphy for his response on Sunday's Meet the Press.
- Brzezinski noted the situation highlights an "interesting issue" for candidates on both sides of the aisle, with voters now deciding where to draw the line on past social media statements.
