Through a law lobbied by the SGPC & #AkaliDal the @narendramodi government had disenfranchised the relatively liberal Sahajdhari Sikhs who consist mostly of Vaishya - Arora Sikhs in 2016 giving Akalis full control over the Gurudwaras, & giving rise to TRUE sikh narrative. https://t.co/WJaZjdqJDN

Udasis the monastic wing of Sikhism that was started by Guru Nanak's son Sri Chand was expelled from Gurudwaras, their murtis thrown out & declared non sikh along with Nanakpanthis & several other Sikh sects that were close to Hinduism.
If Khalistan terrorism was not anti-Hindu should explain why one after the other each & every sect in Sikhism that is similar to Hinduism was thrown out since Akali movement of 1925? Sehajdharis are latest, in 2016 to be disenfranchised.

Why were the the 1984 riots always mentioned by leaders across political spectrum, leaders in India & abroad. But have you ever heard anyone talk about those hindus who were killed by Khalistanis?

One of the most ancient sects of Sikhs founded by Guru Nanak's son Sri Chand the Udasis, enjoyed state patronage & support under the sikh Empire of Ranjith Singh. How did they go from there to not even being sikhs in a matter of a few decades?

Their various sub-sects were started by ascetic sons of various Sikh Gurus like Guru Hargobind. The only reason for excommunication & disenfranchisement of sects like Udasis, Nanakpanthis etc to latest sehajdharis is to burndown any & every connection with Hindus.
It is this Akali movement that spread hatred for anything hindu, even their own ascetics, intepreters & brothers for Hindu connection that manifested into separatism. Akali dal fuelled it with Anandpur Sahib resolution. Congress used Bhindranwale

BJP leaders including Modi also committed mistakes by giving into SAD demands in latest excommunication of the Sahajdharis & "Patitas" in 2016. But none of them can be accused of starting it. That was done by Akalis on 1925.
With Pakistan ISI support, funding & Indira's approval they just turned into a full fledged terrorist group. But the philosophy of separatism and hatred came from the Akali movement only. Denying that & blaming Congress is like blaming the US for Al Queida & Jihad.
The claim that Khalistan was not Sikh akali terrorism against hindus because it killed many sikhs falls flat because Islamic state & Taliban killed many muslims. By the same stupid logic one could say Congress is innocent because Khalistanis killed IG, Beant Singh & many Congis.

All the challenges to Leader Pelosi are coming from her right, in an apparent effort to make the party even more conservative and bent toward corporate interests.

Hard pass. So long as Leader Pelosi remains the most progressive candidate for Speaker, she can count on my support.


I agree that our party should, and must, evolve our leadership.

But changed leadership should reflect an actual, evolved mission; namely, an increased commitment to the middle + working class electorate that put us here.

Otherwise it’s a just new figure with the same problems.

I hope that we can move swiftly to conclude this discussion about party positions, so that we can spend more time discussing party priorities: voting rights, healthcare, wages, climate change, housing, cannabis legalization, good jobs, etc.
