@@waynebokum6675 First of all, just about any Jewish person with any education from the 1940s and 1950s was sympathetic to socialist causes. This was partly a cultural heritage that went back to Eastern Europe and also because Jewish Americans have often looked at social justice as a worthy cause. Not every Jewish American went in that direction (the notorious Roy Cohn comes to mind) but one could stereotype people of that period as "commie sympathizers." The musical "Flora the Red Menace" covers that subculture. In the present political climate, calling someone a socialist, or the extreme, a communist is plenty to get certain people to broil, to take up arms in defense of this country's conservative principles. Those conservative principles did not include having any respect for black people, as evidenced by the Civil Rights Movement and the many lynchings that took place in this country. Should we be alarmed by the information you presented? Or look at it as another attempt to discredit someone who is on the January 6 committee? Most of us, including me, would like to see justice in action and that includes investigating what took place behind the scenes in the attempt to recast the election results to keep Trump in power.

It is also the most radical, having extensive ties to several major Marxist organizations. Buoyed by an influx of new far-left members, the caucus has struck a deal with Democratic House leader Nancy Pelosi to significantly increase socialist power in the U.S. House of Representatives.

[@rr7firefly]

@@waynebokum6675 What exactly is this socialist agenda to which you refer? People throw words around for their shock value and yet many people don't even bother to investigate what is going on.

He certainly did not play by the rules set up by political authority. Were monasteries communist? All property and work was shared by members of the monastery. I don't mean to be arguing for socialism because it has its problems, particularly in the way it downplays pure meritocracy. In the case of Jamie Raskin his net worth is estimated to be above 20 million dollars, possibly even higher. I would imagine that he is somehow playing the capitalist game.

[@obnoxiousbluebird6634]

I really like Jamie Raskin, and even more because he seems to be one of the few politicians who seem to acknowledge that their job is to *represent* the people of America, not steal from them, deprive them of basic living all while they live their best lives in the protected, worlds oldest frat house members, political bubble on the money and the backs of the very people they are supposed to stand for!

[@anneguetschow3932]

Well said. They're supposed to give but only take. They lie and scheme; disrespectfully fake. They fudge. They lie. Harass and cry. They shout and yell on their way to hell. "Gentlewoman"? That moniker, was never earned. She doesn't learn. No executive processing. Only selfishness and proselytizing. She terrorized a child on a sidewalk who'd already survived a terror attack. Digging a ditch on a circular track. Going nowhere really quick. Her moment of fame makes America sick.

Trump is the first president in history to beg for another country help to beat a woman during a U.S. election. First president to be impeached twice and sued by the Capitol Hill Police and Democratic lawmakers. First president in history to win the liar of the Year award in 2015 and go on to be president in 2016 truly amazing but when you stand on national TV and you beg for help from a foreign country and they spend millions of dollars on propaganda against your opponent and Trump supporters gladly and willingly spread the propaganda around who knows what you can accomplish. Trump said in the Presidential debate between him and Hillary that she rigged the Election; who rigs an election to lose? LOL Trump just said that in case he lost. Then he could do what he did in the 2020 election. Which he also said was rigged before ballots were counted. He said it was rigged and this time he lost so he went with the election was rigged. His back up plan. What that man has done is truly disturbing.

· Jamie Raskin of Maryland, who is serving on the Judiciary Committee, is the son of pro-communist activist, Marcus Raskin who in the 60s co-founded the Institute for Policy Studies. This was described by British intelligence as the perfect intellectual front for Soviet activities, which would have met with resistance if they were done openly by the KGB. He also works very closely with the Democratic Socialists of America and has employed their people as staff members and written articles for their publication. On an interesting side note, the Democratic Socialists of America hold their meetings at the headquarters of the Institute of Policy Studies. Raskin also worked for Jesse Jackson’s Rainbow Coalition in the 1980s, which was run for the most part by the Communist Workers’ Party and the League of Revolutionary Struggle with help from the Democratic Socialists of America and the Communist Party USA. He is also involved with the National Iranian Action Committee and was instrumental in the successful campaign to reinstate the American Iranian nuclear deal.
