[...] Usually, it’s a figurative “gulag,” wherein you’re “merely” shunned, ostracized, fired, and/or prevented from participating in your chosen profession. Give ‘em enough time and power, and the gulag becomes all too real. [...]

There have long been rumors that Hillary was a brigadista, but I've never found proof, so who knows. The Clintons have done an excellent job of covering their trail.

Honey, Rosenberg was born on Manhattan’s upper west side, attended Walden School and Barnard College. After college she worked in a drug counseling program run by the Black Panthers and the Young Lords, a Puerto Rican revolutionary gang. (Note the coincidence, not only with young Hillary Clinton’s work for the Black Panthers and similar groups, but her education at exclusive enclaves like Wellesley and Yale.) Rosenberg received further political education as a member of a youth work brigade in Cuba but did most of her serious political work stateside, where The Family launched a string of robberies and bombings in Bonnie-and-Clyde style.

Susan Rosenberg also participated in the escape to Cuba of Joanne Chesimard, aka Assata Shakur, wanted in connection with the ambush assassination of a New Jersey State trooper. Shakur was convicted of the murder and was serving a life sentence when Rosenberg helped her to flee. In 1984, Rosenberg was captured with Evans at a New Jersey warehouse where they were unloading 740 pounds of explosives. She also was in possession of fourteen weapons including an Uzi submachine gun. As in the case of other leftwing murderers for political causes, Rosenberg has become a progressive hero, supported by celebrity defenders of political criminals like Noam Chomsky and William Kunstler both of whom actively lobbied for her release. Since she had been sentenced to 58 years for her crimes, prosecutors decided not to pursue murder charges in connection with the killing of the three officers in the Nanuet robbery.
This proved to be a mistake. Like Evans, she gained the support of Democratic congressman Jerry Nadler, and along with Evans was pardoned by Clinton on his last day in office.

Transaction Publishers, New Brunswick, New Jersey ISBN 0878555765 ISBN-13 9780878555765 Pages 90-91 “… The peasant (Eutimio Guerra) allegedly confessed to his treason. A revolutionary tribunal was immediately organized: Guerra was sentenced to death and executed with the hour. These executions were not hidden from the rural population but were publicized widely by the guerrillas. Most of the time Ramiro Valdés administered the revolutionary justice.”

I am currently reading Jay Nordlinger's collection, Here, There, & Everywhere.
On Page 81, from an essay from March 19, 2001, Jay writes about Clinton's Rosenberg case. He describes the radicals of this country who killed and exploded property and robbed and bragged about their achievements in their desire to destroy this horrendous America. President Clinton pardoned a Susan Rosenberg as one of the many egregious pardons as he left office. If someone knows how to reprint that here, it is pertinent to this discussion.
Not only were the crazies making hay with the havoc they wreaked, Clinton made it worse by pardoning some of them. What was he thinking? What were his motivations, I wonder?

Count the number of heads in academia and the entertainment industry, and then multiply that by .9 and there is your answer.

I remember sometime around the mid 1960's American college students started emulating fidel & che. They went from polite neatly dressed youth to fatigue wearing, unkempt, rude revolutionary wannabees. It was like a generational virus that quickly spread. Much was written about it during those years, but as far I know the source of the "rebellion" never named. There is no doubt in my mind that it was the castro propaganda machine facilitated by fellow travelers and useful idiots in the media and elsewhere. How many Americans were brigadistas? How many young minds have they poisoned in the last 45 years?

Mr. Mojito,
Truth turned on its head. And this is a professor at a large university and a Jew, yet.
I despair, I really do.

This is even worse than what Solzhenitsen described.
How do we get this printed today in the press?

Amazing that Time would be this honest with themselves about this.
