Communist infiltration of academia, government, and church has been going on since the beginning of the Cold War. In New England many of the rich and famous were communist who had a not-so-secret active cell. For that brief time when Congress made it illegal to be communist, many of them moved to Mexico City where they were even more organized, open and active. I suspect they remain so.
Ah, ...for the good old days.
The common thing about entirely too many people in government,academia,and church is that they have never had to actually WORK for a living.
We would have a better society if no one could be recruited or begin careers in those three fields until having worked at least four years in a private profit-making business.
Megan Kelly’s recent interviews with Bill Ayers and Ward Churchhill shed a lot of light on this subject. If you missed them, check out her website.
