Nancy Pelosi’s controversial marxist connection
the concern not only involves her unsubstantiated charges against the CIA over what officials told her about the treatment of terrorists, but her
close personal relationship with pro-Castro Rep. Barbara Lee and the “progressive” Hallinan family of San Francisco, once under scrutiny by the
California Senate Fact-Finding Subcommittee on Un-American Activities for their pro-Soviet propaganda efforts
Nancy Pelosi is "a very close friend of Rep. Barbara Lee"
About Barbera Lee
(Lee) began her career in the California state legislature as a secret member of the Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism, a
spin-off from the Communist Party. As a member of the staff of Rep. Ron Dellums, Lee was shown to have been collaborating with communist officials on
the island of Grenada, according to documents captured after the liberation of that island nation
But even more interesting than the Barbara Lee connection is Pelosi’s long-time friendship and association with Vincent and Vivian Hallinan, one of
the most radical left-wing families in San Francisco
Pelosi called Vivian Hallinan, who openly held “socialist” views, a “pioneer” in “a wide range of progressive causes.”
But these causes included support for communists in Central America during the 1980s, when Soviet- and Cuban-backed forces were subverting Central
America through violence and terrorism and fighting for control of the region.
Indeed, Pelosi paid tribute to Vivian Hallinan by inserting into the Congressional Record an article saying that she had “opposed U.S. policy in
Central America” under President Reagan, had “befriended Daniel Ortega, Nicaragua’s [Communist] Sandinista leader,” and had met with Cuban
dictator Castro.
And my favorite part!
Pelosi the politician is clearly depending on the press to stop asking questions.
However, since Pelosi and other elected officials don’t have to go through background investigations, it is the job of the media to perform this
function. In the case of Pelosi, it is long overdue.
I'm not counting on the main stream media to do their job.
This woman is dangerous for America
