Francesca Hong’s DSA Spurns What My Korean War Vet Grandfather Sacrificed To Give Her

Instead of upholding what over 1.78 million Korean War vets fought to protect, Francesca Hong advocates to abolish the very systems of government that granted her family freedom and an opportunity in this country.

Francesca Hong’s campaign reveals her true hatred for American culture. She struggled with having a half-white, half-Korean son because it put her in “proximity to whiteness.” She helped incite aggressive protests against law enforcement, even after a knife-wielding man injured a cop in her own city. She wants to implement communist-style government-run grocery stores, abolish ICE and the police, and bashes the service industry for being a racist institution founded on white supremacy. The list of Marxist-adjacent policies she wishes to implement as Wisconsin governor goes on and on: Universal childcare, an anti-business Worker’s Bill of Rights, breaking up agricultural companies, and overturning Act 10. And, of course, she advocates for transgender rights and wants to “Free Palestine.” 

Fourteen years before Hong decided to run for Wisconsin’s highest political office, my grandfather, a Korean War vet and Wisconsin native, passed away from a severe case of Alzheimer’s. I was young when he died, and the few memories I have are when his mind started  to fade. My mom played violin music to help him remember because it was something he loved as a young boy in the 1930s. I shared cookies with him while sitting outside in the garden at his assisted living facility. He didn’t know who I was, but he was happy to have company while we munched on oatmeal raisin cookies.
