Gotnews.com has exclusively discovered David Axelrods fathers Communist Party membership.
David Axelrods book, Believer: My Forty Years in Politics, details his very close relationship with his father, Joseph.
He repeatedly told Charlie Rose that his father believed in the American dream.
In fact, Axelrods father, Joseph, was a card-carrying communist. Hes listed as a member of the Communist Party for the 1936 general election.
Axelrod briefly mentions his fathers Communist views in his book but only in passing and in a section about how he got to visit the former Soviet Union.
Axelrod was very close to his father. Axelrod writes, For all our years together, my father was always the one who provided a listening ear and loving support.
Axelrods father killed himself in 1974 when Axelrod was but 19.
I was completely on my own, he writes. But not quite. His father still left him with his radically left-wing views.
Joe McCarthy deserves a statue in the Rotunda..
to hang the heads of all the liars&posers that have sought to steal elections and destroy this nation..
To them, the Constitution is meaningless,, irrelevant..
Agenda Uber Alles.
Communists, Muslim Brotherhood and Iranian infiltrators - it's a toxic soap opera ...
Chicago was a hot bed of communists... especially the Hyde Park neighborhood. I’m not talking about idealistic college kids with delusions...
“Communists, Muslim Brotherhood and Iranian infiltrators - it’s a toxic soap opera ... “
They all celebrate Evil, and despise anything worthwhile. No surprises here.
” Axelrods father killed himself in 1974 when Axelrod was but 19.”
The only thing his dad got right.

I think the guy is a genius.
Him and Plouffy could elect Charles Manson POTUS if they wanted to.
Beware that someone voting for the Communist Party did not have to be a Party member, esp. in 1936. THe same for those who signed on as “Electors” for the CPUSA, though they were more likely to be Party members and hardcore sympathizers.
These lists have to be handled with care because if you do not know how they were assembled, then you could misuse the information.
It is a good find but one has to be careful with common names. There are 3 Samuel Rubin(s) on the 1936 or 1940 NYC voters lists for CPUSA candidates. Only one COULD be that of Cora Weiss(WSP, Mobes, Hanoi Lobby, IPS, Riverside Church) father, a Soviet asset. Which one is the question, if at all.
Busted!
