Nothing startling, but interesting details on the history of leftist/pinko/pothead infiltrators and usurpers.

I was in the USAF in 1970. I knew some communists in the Air Force. I don’t know how closely they were watched, or if they were watched at all.

Today they call themselves “progressives.”

For decades, with each passing generation of useful idiots communism is repackaged and marketed as something new and...REVOLUTIONARY. Similar to the same old get-rich-quick scams pushed as new ways to achieve instant wealth.
Such as a sure fire method of buying and flipping real estate with no money down that any schlub can learn to do, for a small fee and a small fee only. How any schmuck can learn how to make a killing in stocks, and more recently bitcoin, again for a small fee and a small fee only. Or some shill who tries talking you into investing thousands in the latest snake oil and will show you how to make gazillions in residual income, or some other unworkable mathematically impossible MLM/pyramid racket.
They'll tell you other systems failed because they were implemented wrong but THEY have a PROVEN SYSTEM that works. The 4 deadly words, THIS TIME IT'S DIFFERENT. And like the hippies before them so many millenials fall for this crap like so many brainwashed little puppies.

Absolutely correct. The SDS in Boston was funded by the ACP. I was on the steering committee at the time this was occurring. In fact I quit the group over this issue. Was interviewed at the time by the FBI.

So this little bit of truth finally emerges? The Communist Party was so firmly entrenched in American society that they controlled almost every branch of government.

Their big moment was when they morphed that goofy "Ban the Bomb" movement into the Anti Vietnam War movement which very rapidly expanded, thanks to the hundreds of thousands who didn't want to risk themselves in Vietnam. Our government stood idly by as the CP-USA ran a commuter service to Hanoi and Moscow and returned with propaganda points, books and leaflets - and funds. At the height of their power, they occupied a majority of Congress and crushed the South Vietnamese resistance through the purse.

Their descendants still control us and we will just watch and complain.
