If I recall correctly there was a report that Axelrod was/is a not to distant descendant from the family of one of the Russian Bolsheviks involved in the overthrow of the Russian Czar; Trotsky I think? His family root name is not Axelrod. Axelrod’s family are known communists. This information jibes with the story in American Free Press in 2009 of a Fresno businessman(I have a printed copy) being told and surprised in 1992 at a dinner party by the wife of the host, she being an avid communist, that a black man of a Kenya father and named Barack was being groomed for and would be POTUSA and he is one of us. I would have thought that that there was enough journalistic talent to do some research on this connection. It is known that from the days of WWII international communism/socialism the USA is still infested by these people.
“Axelrod’s family are known communists.”
Just for grins, your post tempted me to take a look in the “The Mitrokhin Archive”. As a contoller of Chicago moles, David Axlerod’s exploits pale in comparison to a possible Russian namesake, but here goes.
Mitrokhin’s book mentions a Soviet spy named Moisei Markovich Akselrod, who was “born into a Jewish family in Smolensk in 1898”. Mitrokhin describes him as one of the leading Soviet agent controllers during the 1930’s. He was one of a spectacularly successful group that Mitrokhin refers to as the “Great Illegals”.
Unfortunately for Akselrod, he was caught up in Stalin’s purge, recalled to Moscow from his post in Italy, and executed as an “enemy of the people”.
