The Democratic National Committee (DNC) has hired a divisive anti-American leftist to supposedly help the party reconnect with voters.
The move comes as calls continue to grow for the Democrats to moderate following a disappointing performance in the November election.
In a surprising announcement, the DNC revealed the hiring of an executive director with a history of promoting far-left, un-American ideologies.
The DNC announced the hiring of Roger Lau as executive director in a press release.
The announcement touts Lau’s long career, which includes working on campaigns for socialist Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA).
However, the press release failed to mention Lau’s long history of associating with progressive causes.
For example, Lau signed onto a letter in 2020 that claimed the United States is built on “racism” and “genocide.”
The letter was signed by Lau and over 100 other AAPI community leaders in June 2020.
It was signed at the height of the Black Lives Matter movement as rioters were attempting to burn down cities across the country.
“Our country was built on the foundation of racism, ranging from the genocide of indigenous people, chattel slavery, racial profiling of young men of color, and a criminal justice system that tears families apart,” the letter claimed.
The letter announced support for a “10-point plan” to address “police violence” and “racial justice.”
It also included demands for measures such as a commission on “structural racism” and declaring racism a “public health crisis.”
Lau’s adherence to the Black Lives Matter platform at the time made its way into one of Sen. Warren’s speeches, according to an ABC News report in 2020.
The report said Lau was responsible for putting hidden BLM messages into the senator’s DNC speech.
Lau can be seen taking part in a video posted on the YouTube page of radical Boston Mayor Michelle Wu.
Mayor Wu recently sparked controversy by offering condolences to the family of a man shot while trying to stab innocent bystanders in a Chick-fil-A.
The video of Lau and Wu warned about “white supremacy culture.”
Lau’s resume also includes opposition to a resolution that condemned the Chinese Communist Party for misleading the world on the origin and spread of Covid.
Lau previously served as the DNC’s deputy executive director during the 2024 presidential election cycle, where VP Kamala Harris was defeated by President Trump.
He has served in that role since 2021.
In the press release that announced his hiring, Lau said:
“The DNC is laser-focused on equipping Democrats across the country with the tools they need to win, and I am honored to support Chair Martin in this critical work.
“When we’re in the opposition party, the work of the DNC is more important than ever.
“This team will leverage the vast infrastructure that we’ve built within the DNC and our state parties while meeting this moment by deepening our partnerships, strengthening grassroots organizing, and turbocharging messaging to win elections.”
The DNC has already faced criticism over some of the other new faces it has brought in to lead the party into the midterms.
The recent hires include new Vice Chair David Hogg, a radical anti-Second Amendment activist.
Hogg’s old social media posts went viral as users sounded the alarm about his policy positions and past rhetoric against conservatives.
Conservatives on social media also had a field day mocking the DNC for featuring a handful of “beyond parody” moments during its leadership vote earlier this month.
Critics said the leadership votes underscored that Democrats have “learned absolutely nothing” from their 2024 election losses.
