In a December 26, 1955 article in Time magazine, George Meany of the AFL-CIO warned Americans that [t]oo many in the free world fail to see the real nature of Communism as the mortal foe of everything that we hold dear, of every moral and spiritual value. Too many are still prisoners of the illusion that Communism is, historically speaking, a progressive system [or] ... extreme liberalism temporarily making bad mistakes. Actually, Communism ... is an anti-social system in which there are embedded some of the worst features of savagery, slavery, feudalism and life-sapping exploitation manifested in the industrial revolution of early-day capitalism. Meany forcefully asserted that

A lot of young people today know very little about history. Many of them think history began when they were born.

There are two main political parties in the United States, one is influenced by and shares the ideals of Karl Marx and the other does not. Anyone care to make a guess which is which?

I’m an eye witness to communism in all its glories having spent three years in Ceausescu’s Romania. We were stationed at the US Embassy in Bucharest and had the protections and support of America guarding our backs. My husband always likened it to living in a shark cage where one is protected but the deadly danger swims all around. I never thought that it could happen here and the only solace I take in it is that, if these ignorant idiots get what they think they want, they will wind up just as miserable as the rest of us.

I tend to think of communism as a very effective (for some reason unknown to me) smoke screen used by the rapacious to steal and kill and misuse. Its appeal is lies about suspending the laws of physics in order to avoid unpleasantness in your life: Utopia. So sad The Gullibles cannot see that everything there is was built by someone’s efforts. They think starbucks just spontaneously evolved from a coffee plant, that it’s always been here and always will be. Just like the mountains. It’s just another con, but the biggest one. There’s no consumer bureau to go to to get your money back.

A lot of people have a maniacal desire to control others. They cannot stand to see others going about their own lives and making their own decisions. Today's Democrats have this same trait - they want to control which auto you drive (if any), food you eat, and even which lightbulbs you turn on in the dark. Communism will get them to their goal.

#3, I too was in Romania15 years ago on very long business trips (months at a time), but long after the Ceausescu reign of communism was over. As you know, the Romanians have long memories and will never allow communism to infect their country ever again. The mortar rounds that damaged the walls of the presidential palace when the coup to kill Ceausescu and his wife happened, the damage remains very visible as a reminder to the Romanian citizens to this day. One a very cold night in February in 2005 while I was taking a walk with my colleague through the embassy district in Bucharest, I noticed a Romanian soldier guarding an embassy building behind the wrought iron fence. He approached me from behind the fence and asked and I quote, "it's cold out here, can you spare a cigarette"? I said, just hang on a minute. I'll go across the street to the Nic and buy you a full pack. And I brought it him. He said, and I quote again, "thanks, America."

Former President Donald Trump criticized President Joe Biden for being worse than “the five worst presidents in American history” combined as Biden prepares to officially launch his 2024 reelection campaign. During a Monday White House event, Biden told reporters he would inform the American public “real soon” about his reelection plans.“I told you I’m planning on running. I’ll let you know real soon,” Biden said. His remarks came amid speculation that Biden could announce his reelection effort as soon as this week.

The cable news landscape was shaken to its core Monday with the stunning news that cable news star and host of Fox News Channel's Tucker Carlson Tonight was out at the network. A short time later, CNN announced that CNN This Morning co-host Don Lemon was fired as well. During CBS Evening News's coverage of both developments, anchor Norah O'Donnell resorted to labeling Fox News as a conservative network, while seeing no need to use the liberal label for CNN. While it's accurate to label Fox a conservative network in terms of its opinion-side programming, it wasn't honest or fair reporting to refuse to label CNN a liberal network

A long line of cable news outlets and media organizations, including Newsmax and NewsNation, are already eyeing up Carlson, hoping to recruit America's best-known political commentator.

"I am stunned," Lemon wrote. "After 17 years at CNN I would have thought someone in management would have had the decency to tell me directly."

The pro-legal weed Hochul administration is quietly trying to fire up support for a complete ban on the sale of tobacco products in New York, The Post has learned. The state Health Department commissioned a new survey aimed at gauging support for an all-out prohibition — despite Gov. Hochul’s failure to secure support from state legislators to include a ban on menthol cigarettes and other flavored tobacco products in the yet-to-be-approved state budget. “What is your opinion about a policy that would end the sale of all tobacco products in New York within 10 years?” were among the questions asked last week in the “New York Local Opinion Leaders Survey,”

Presidential primaries get very dirty, and that’s to be expected. But here in April 2023, the GOP one has already descended into a disgusting spiral of lies and insanity — because of the increasingly disordered and amateurish Donald Trump campaign. Trump has a clear lane in the primary. He has a record of accomplishment as president; he led the country to prosperity that has since sharply declined; he exposes the politicization and corruption of our government agencies when he’s personally targeted by leftist activist district attorneys like Alvin Bragg and when he is the subject of a baseless search for documents at his home.

Everybody is up in arms about Tucker Carlson’s and Fox News’ split. Lots of rumors regarding why it happened are floating around, and as with all breaking news stories you should wait for a bit before you trust anything anybody says. “Inside sources” or outright speculations are unreliable. Was it Dominion? Was it Tucker wanting to defend himself? Was it something else? I don’t know and only a small circle of people so far do. And even they will probably have diverging views. What interests me is how Tucker is a very different kind of media voice and one who can’t easily fit at any cable news station.

Washington — Susan Rice, one of President Biden's most trusted aides and his top domestic policy official, will be leaving the administration next month in what will mark one of the most high-profile departures from his administration, the White House announced Monday. Since the start of Mr. Biden's presidency, Rice has led the domestic policy council, a powerful White House office overseeing a wide-ranging set of issues, from health care and gun control initiatives, to U.S. immigration and border policy. Rice served as national security adviser and United Nations ambassador under former President Barack Obama. In a statement, Mr. Biden praised Rice's tenure, highlighting her pivotal role in advancing his agenda.
