I had a personal encounter with one of the first American VBs in 1970. Was driving from LA to Seattle with a friend who brought a friend of a friend to share expenses. The VB, from Berkley of course, ranted on and on about the glories of Castro. By the time we hit N.

Sendero Luminoso was the group that American gal ran with and got caught. She pleaded that she was merely an unknowing girl friend of one of the guys masterminding a huge bombing, can’t recall the details just now. Her parents set up a huge campaign to get her released.... fellow travels, always the victims.

Massive ..... To easy IMO with minority, female, refuge priority hiring practice in government to infect at every level of our nations security ..... sleepers then come into play.
Stay Safe !
“Antonio Pestana, chief of Venezuela’s farming association, told reporters last month that only 25 percent of agricultural land is actually being farmed.”
Uh, yeah. No amount of slave labor can make up for the lack of seed, fertilizer, insecticide, herbicide, and operational agricultural machinery.
[BTW, I heard that Sean Penn has volunteered to help pick turnips for a few weeks when he visits Venezuela the next time.]
