“A confidential message from FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover, reproduced in [Diana] West’s new book, told [White House aide Harry] Hopkins that a ‘continuing’ investigation had discovered that Russian diplomat (and Comintern agent) Vasily Zarubin had made a payment to U.S. Communist Party official Steve Nelson to help place espionage agents ‘in industries engaged in secret war production … so that information could be obtained for transmittal to the Soviet Union.’ This information had come from a ‘bug’ at Nelson’s home in Oakland, California, through which the FBI first learned of the Soviet effort (code-named ‘Enormous’) to obtain the atomic secrets of the Manhattan Project. Instead of warning President Roosevelt, however, Hopkins ‘privately warned the Soviet embassy in Washington that the FBI had bugged a secret meeting’ between Nelson and Zarubin, according to documents from the KGB archives smuggled out by [former Soviet intelligence officer Vasili] Mitrokhin.”

Just doing my job, ma’am. “Seizing conclusions” is a fairly apt job description and, as was I reading through the book, my head nearly exploded when I saw the evidence against Harry Hopkins.....

Even the delegates to the 1944 Democrat convention couldn’t stomach renominating Henry Wallace as Vice President knowing that Roosevelt was unlikely to serve a full fourth term.
And it is likely that Someone—British or American—got the word to the Chinese that the US would NOT hit China if they intervened in Korea.
The Catholic who was the Democratic chairmen pushed Truman forward, because he knew Harry was anti-Communist and because Jimmy Byrnes was not acceptable to his fellow Catholics because of his divorce. Catholics and Communists were bedfellows in the Democratic Party, and the Catholic pols had an idea who was to be trusted and who not.

True. But there were factions of Dems like Joe Kennedy who were pro Nazi.

Give Joe his due: he was very anti-Communist and a friend to Joe MaCarthy, which is why Bobby was an aide to McCarthy and Jack an ally.

Good points. The left don’t like to be reminded or be told that Bobby was on McCarthy’s staff.
Simple answer is yes, Read zwhitaker Chambers....
I’m just getting into Diana West’s book “Betrayal” tonight. It promises to be the next next nail in the coffin of FDR’s legacy.
Maj. Jordan was in charge of a portion of the USA's effort to supply the Soviet Union during WWII. His Diaries make an excellent read.
If Harry Hopkins wasn’t an actual Soviet agent, he was at the very least a dedicated fellow traveler.
I suspect he was a willing tool of the Soviets.
EVERYONE near FDR was a Communist, just like everyone now near Obama, and him also, played Communist during college...until Alinsky told them to start acting mainstream, if they wanted to obtain political power. They listened.
Jack was no ally. But it’s safe to say Jack wouldn’t have had a career without Joe McCarthy.
The bottom line is that no one who seeks power should be trusted. Ever. That’s not to say that all who seek power are bad, and that all who have a desire to work in the public sector are dishonest or Machiavellian. Nonetheless, they still should not be trusted. The stakes are too high, and human nature is human nature.
Not surprised. Many of our elites supported the communists. They still do.
The grandfather of Obama’s girlfriend was good friends with Alger Hiss and vouched for him. IIRC, it was her stepfather’s father.
Yes.
Next question.
Brit spy Donald Maclean the source, to Russia, that US would not use atomic weapons, as MacArthur wanted to do if China got to the Yalu (”We should never fight a land war in Asia”- MacArthur). Mac was right-if Truman gave the OK, just the threat would have been these results. No communist N Korea, No Viet Nam
