Biss ran for Illinois governor 8 years ago. His running mate was a member of the Democrat Socialists of America: https://blnnews.com/2017/09/05/tari-still-supporting-biss/
See that story, he had a lot of local support including Tari Renner and Sharon Chung. Does anyone run for office with a socialist if they aren’t one too?
Biss is now an elected congressman replace Jan Schakowsky. That doesn’t shift power since she was a far left progressive, just like Biss. See his campaign website: https://www.danielbiss.com/issues

Biss has all the DSA talking points. He wants to abolish ICE. Everything else is buying votes by taxing more to give it away to people who didn’t earn it.
According to this story he said the below: https://www.jta.org/2026/11/04/politics/the-adl-went-after-a-progressive-jew-as-soon-as-he-won-his-election-he-clapped-back

Is wasn’t all those pro-Palestinians chanting From the River To The Sea that made Jewish people unsafe? Calling for Israel to be wiped off the map didn’t make Jewish college students afraid to be on campus? Sure.
He also wants to repeal the 2nd Amendment:

He wants gun manufacturers to lose immunity. Does that make car manufacturers liable for drunk drivers too? Pencils liable for wrong answers on tests?

Democrats voted against banning stock trading in Congress just a few months ago. He wants to stop gerrymandering? Start with Illinois Daniel. Among other things, he wants to abolish the electoral college. He’d probably vote to abolish the Constitution too because he doesn’t know why things are in it.
Democrats can’t win elections without “dark money”. Biss wants money out of politics! Doesn’t that apply to Pritzker buying seats all over the country for his minions Daniel? In June of 2025 he spoke at a No Kings event in Evanston. Pritzker wasn’t mentioned for pretending he is king.
It’s adorable that he supports Medicare For All. He doesn’t mention the costs or the lack of doctors available to treat patients for pennies that Medicare pays. Canadians come here for treatment since it isn’t available there. Democrats want people to die without saying it out loud. We have no where to flee when their destruction of healthcare is complete. Only the rich will get care because of democrat policies. Economics is out of their wheelhouse.

He wants to restore funding to USAID. Democrats need that slush fund, paying $1 Trillion in interest a year on the debt is immaterial.
To summarize: Biss is unfit for elected office.
Sharon Chung
and a long list of others endorsed this communist/socialist: https://www.danielbiss.com/endorsements
Remember the story where Chung called herself part of the “New Democrats”? https://blnnews.com/2026/11/07/what-happens-when-the-mob-meets-the-elected/
8 years ago she supported a Democrat Socialist for governor. She isn’t a new democrat – she’s a socialist running on the democrat platform. That is who has taken over the democrat party.
Former mayor Tari Renner supported the socialist 8 years ago too. This 2018 story will be at 20,000 views this year by the weekend: https://blnnews.com/2018/07/07/bloomington-is-at-war-thanks-to-tari/
Civil war brewing? Nothing about socialists is American!

I remember him. And I’ve followed the news from Evanston over the years while he was mayor. I often pointed out that he was a Leftist Progressive Marxist Democrat. Many did not like the truth and challenged that fact. They prefer to fly under the radar as long as possible.
