Some members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus have decades long records of supporting Communist Party USA fronts and causes, as well as fronts of the Trotskyite and/or Stalinist Socialist Workers Party (SWP) (4th International) and the Workers World Party (WWP).
Among those close to the CPUSA/fronts are Conyers, Rangel, and Danny Davis (Bob Filner, CA, is the red diaper baby of CPUSA organizers), while those who have mixed records include Maxine Waters, Kucinich, Barbara Lee, George Miller, Tom Harkins, Pete Stark, and others.
The DSA is a marxist organization and all its leaders over the years have said so - Ehrenreich, Piven, etc.
SOme Members of Congress in the DSA are just individually wacked out marxists - Schakowsky, the worst.
Bobby Rush is an old Black Panther leader who is still a black extremist with a hoodie.
There are others like Greivjalis (sp.) who are literally representatives from Mexico and LA RAZA, another marxist-oriented organization. See www.keywiki.org and www.DiscoverTheNetwork.com for details on each individual.
West, like McCarthy before him, has a very clear understanding of the enemy within. Both men are true Patriots.
The far left political hack Hubert Humphrey, on the other hand, along with an equally detestable William Fullbright, were among McCarthy's most critical opponents. Both Democrats, they were representative of the concerted effort of the Democrat Party to villify and destroy McCarthy.
They didn't give a damn about Communists beyond their benign acceptance of them. They didn't want the American people to figure out how cozy Truman, Roosevelt, and all the rest of them were with Godless Marxists. They feigned anti-Communist poses to keep the American people from hanging them as traitors.
And that's why McCarthy had to be destroyed.
Nothing has changed in all those years except that now they're after West.
Watching West debate Biden in a vp debate would be incredible.
Colonel West is running for election in my district.
Local newspaper has been running letters to the editor at about 8 to 1 against him. Also stories by libs against him at about 10 to 1. Course they insist they are fair about the whole thing.
I’m supporting him and hope he gives the libs heart failure around here.
