Megan Romer, co-chair of the Democratic Socialists of America, publicly endorsed abolishing the US Senate, national borders, prisons and ICE, exposing the scale of the movement's agenda amid growing ideological splits within the Democratic Party. The remarks, made during a Fox News Sunday interview, underscore an intensifying rift between the party's moderate and far-left flanks as figures across the spectrum increasingly clash over the direction of the Democratic coalition.

Romer defended the proposals while discussing the DSA's role within the wider Democratic Party and pushed back on concerns that the organisation's positions are too extreme. Her comments come as other prominent Democrats, including James Carville and Pete Buttigieg, have separately voiced unease about a perceived far-left shift, with Carville sharply criticising activists he accused of prioritising radical ideology over the party's traditional values.
