Ex-NYC Mayor de Blasio Joins China-Linked Far-Left Group At Anti-U.S. "Emergency Meeting" In Colombia

The New York Post reports that former New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio secretly traveled with his girlfriend and a far-left activist group, alleged to have links to the Chinese Communist Party, to attend an "emergency" meeting denouncing the U.S. It's a 180-degree turn for the former Democratic mayor of NYC, long a symbol of American capitalism, even as the image of the metro area deteriorates under Zohran Mamdani's socialist rule.

A source told the NYPost that de Blasio jetted off with members of CodePink, a Marxist propaganda network linked to Chinese billionaire Neville Roy Singham, to attend an "emergency" meeting called Nuestra América to denounce the U.S. and all foreign policy in the West by the Trump administration, including the US capture of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro in January.

"It's not that Bill de Blasio does not know CodePink is a CCP front group, it's that he is so desperate for relevance and validation that he does not care," a Democratic operative told the outlet, adding, "It's really bottom-barrel stuff that he has to pal around with a bunch of anti-American nuts no one actually takes seriously."

The meeting of socialists was organized by Progressive International, an umbrella group that aspires to "eradicate capitalism everywhere" and includes CodePink among its members.

According to a recent report by The New York Times, Singham resides in China while maintaining a long record of supporting radical-left nonprofits that oppose U.S. interests and align with foreign adversaries.

Singham, who is married to activist Jodie Evans, co-founder of CodePink, has been alleged by House Republicans to be a major financial backer of the Party for Socialism and Liberation, which has organized nationwide protests, including unrest in Los Angeles.

These far-left nonprofits frame U.S. foreign policy as illegitimate while defending authoritarian regimes. The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) function as the political activation channel, translating activist energy into electoral and legislative influence on behalf of foreign powers.

The Trump administration has identified CodePink and the "Singham network" as vectors of Chinese propaganda in what is viewed as asymmetric warfare.

In fact, we recently penned the note "Is There A "Cuba Connection" Behind The Radicalization Of America's Nonprofit Left"...

Government Accountability Institute President Peter Schweizer told us earlier this year, "Singham's anti-American villainy became clear with his financing of the violent Black Lives Matter uprisings — to Communist China's delight. He is absolutely in bed with the CCP."

If you want to understand why the radical left appears to hate America and seeks to destroy capitalism and the nation from within, it is not difficult to see that these ideas are rarely developed organically. More often, they are shaped and reinforced by outside influences - like meetings and workshops attended by de Blasio.

This chart above helps explain why the radical left has become so radical.
