Florida Representative Anna Paulina Luna condemned the Democratic Socialists of America Friday for what she called racist anti-white rhetoric embedded in the organization's platform, pointing to recent primary victories by DSA-backed candidates who made controversial statements about race and Jewish Americans.

Luna's comments on Breitbart News Saturday came as progressive Democrats scored unexpected upset wins in Florida and New York primaries, with several victorious candidates carrying explicit DSA endorsements and campaign support.

DSA Platform Contains Anti-White Language

The Florida congresswoman specifically cited examples from New York, where DSA-endorsed candidates advanced despite previous comments she characterized as both anti-white and antisemitic. Luna argued the organization's official platform promotes racial division under the guise of progressive politics.

The Gateway Pundit reported Luna elaborated on the pattern during an appearance with Sean Hannity, noting that New York DSA candidates who made explicit racial attacks against white Americans received party backing without condemnation from Democratic leadership.

Chinese Communist Party Funding Allegations

Luna also raised concerns about foreign influence on the socialist organization, alleging the DSA maintains financial and organizational ties to the Chinese Communist Party. The congresswoman provided no specific documentation of the funding claim during her media appearances, though she described the connection as established fact.

Your News reported that no publicly disclosed court ruling has confirmed direct Chinese Communist Party funding of the Democratic Socialists of America, noting Luna's allegation remains under investigation rather than proven through legal proceedings.

Luna has previously called for federal investigations into groups she suspects of foreign coordination. In July, she demanded a Justice Department probe of the Patriot Front white nationalist organization following its Independence Day rally in Washington, questioning whether the group receives covert government or foreign funding.

DSA Electoral Gains

The Democratic Socialists of America has notched significant primary wins in the 2026 cycle despite Republican attacks on its platform. Florida progressive Angie Nixon won the Democratic Senate nomination earlier this month with DSA backing, while several New York congressional districts saw DSA-aligned candidates defeat establishment Democrats.

Luna argued the wins demonstrate Democratic Party leadership has lost control of its coalition to far-left activists promoting racial grievance politics. She contrasted the DSA's success with Republican efforts to build diverse coalitions based on shared American identity rather than race-based organizing.

Luna's Political Background

The 36-year-old congresswoman represents Florida's 13th District and made history as the first Mexican American woman elected to represent Florida in Congress. She won her seat in the 2022 midterms by defeating incumbent Democrat Charlie Crist in a redrawn district.

Luna has emerged as one of the Trump administration's most vocal House allies, particularly on immigration enforcement and election integrity issues. In June, Politico reported she played a central role in parliamentary maneuvers designed to advance contentious Republican election reform legislation.

The congresswoman has faced her own controversies this year. Axios reported in August that the Justice Department confirmed it never investigated Luna over insider trading allegations related to her knowledge of JD Vance's vice presidential selection and subsequent Polymarket betting activity.
