If itās not first, protection of the homeland from all foreign adversaries should be way up on the list for elected officials. This is not the case for Democrats.
Democrats indicted in this thread: FDR, Biden, Carter, Clinton.
1.This was not always the position of the Democrat Party. The sea-change occurred under, and because of, the 32nd President.
"Not only did FDR overlook the external evidence; FDR ignored the counsel of key experts at the State Department, which, at the time, was home...to an educated and experienced cadre of anti-Communists....who would be neutralized and purged....n 1937...the Russian research library at the State Department was broken up, the files on Communists, foreign and domestic, ordered destroyed. The second, in 1943. Both purges took place under Soviet pressure and even direction as when in March 1943 Foreign Minister Litvinov, incredibly, handed over a list of American diplomats the Soviets wanted fired....a "guilt offering to Stalin from Roosevelt"...
West, "American Betrayal," p.193.
āAs Hitler marched into Poland, Whittaker Chambers arranged a private meeting with Adolf Berle, President Rooseveltās assistant Secāy of State. Chambers detailed the Communist espionage network, naming at least two dozen Soviet spies in Rooseveltās administration, including Alger Hiss. Berle reported this to Roosevelt, who laughed, and told Berle to go f--- himself. ā
Arthur Herman, Joseph McCarthy: Reexaming the Life and Legacy of Americaās Most Hated Senator, p. 60.
No action was taken, and in fact, Roosevelt promoted Hiss. Almost a decade later, Chambers was called before the HUAC and named Hiss as a Soviet agent. Hiss sued Chambers, at which time Chambers presented ā⦠four notes in Alger Hiss's handwriting, sixty-five typewritten copies of State Department documents and five strips of microfilm, some of which contained photographs of State Department documents. The press came to call these the"PumpkinPapers" Whittaker Chambers - Wikipedia)
2. George Earle was a special emissary of FDR's to Europe...and returned in 1944 with proof that implicated the Soviets in the Katyn Forest massacre (In April of 1943, the mass graves of thousands of shot, bayoneted, and asphyxiated Polish officers were uncovered in the Katyn pine forest near Smolensk, Russia.) Earle testified later at the Katyn Forest hearings that Joe Levy of the NYTimes, warned him that bringing an anti-Soviet report to FDR would be a career ender : "George, you don't know what you are going to over there. [Soviet Spy] Harry Hopkins has completed domination over the President and the whole atmosphere over there is 'pink.'"
West, "American Betrayal," p.211.
On March 22, 1945, FDR wrote to Earle: "I have noted with concern your plan to publicize your unfavorable opinion of one of our allies. I do not wish you to do so. Not only do I not wish it, I specifically forbid you to do so." He then ordered Earle to Samoa for the duration.
On March 26, 1945, Army Chief of Staff George C. Marshall issued the following order: "Censor all stories, delete criticism Russian treatment." This was aimed at those Americans who had been POWs of the Red Army. Note that some 20,000 US soldiers were never returned [by Stalin].
This Democrat attitude toward foreign nations, and ideologies, has led to a deterioration of both the integrity and the efficiency of what is called our āintelligence agencies.ā
And it is no accident.
As we have seen during the Trump administration, the Deep State, the intelligence apparatus, works at the behest of the Democrat Party, a party that does not honor national security.
The beneficiaries are always the most anti-American nations of the world.
