I found this one entertaining. It might make a good story line for a movie.

Interesting, the US government seemed to do a fair job finding & prosecuting Nazi spies, even in pre-war 1938.

In all the Franklin Roosevelt years, did they ever even look for Soviet spies?

Might we suppose that Soviet spies of the time outnumbered Nazi spies by a factor of, what, maybe 10 to one?

Clearly, Roosevelt even then hated Nazis, had no fear of Communists.

That's very interesting. Considering that at the time we didn't really have a very well established counterespionage effort this is some very good work.

I'm not too surprised that Roosevelt wasn't very aggressive towards doing the same with Communist agents since he was really sympathetic to them. FDR was constantly bending to Stalin's will (in my opinion).

Even Henry A. Wallace (FDRs VP from 41-45) wrote a book in 1952 titled “Where I Was Wrong” in which he discusses his regret for his sympathies towards the Soviet Union, and his trusting of Stalin.
